Hallo,

I'm rather confused. The announcement at the top says 1.13 is being worked on, and if you read it you aren't supposed to download any Forge 1.13 as it may contain malware. However the link that says it goes to what patches still need to be ported 404s, and in the files section on www.minecraftforge.net has a section to download 1.13.2. I've tried this download and it seems to work. Soo... am I behind? I don't see it being mentioned in the Releases forum. It says 1.13.2 - 25.0.42 on the download page.

Sorry, I'm the one who's behind, I forgot to update the announcement.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

Reveal hidden contents

Logs (Most issues require logs to diagnose):

Reveal hidden contents

Please post logs using one of the following sites (Thank you Lumber Wizard for the list):

https://gist.github.com/: 100MB Requires member (Free)

https://pastebin.com/: 512KB as guest, 10MB as Pro ($$$)

https://hastebin.com/: 400KB

Do NOT use sites like Mediafire, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or a site that has a countdown before offering downloads.

What to provide:

...for Crashes and Runtime issues:

Minecraft 1.14.4 and newer:

Post debug.log

Older versions:

Please update...

...for Installer Issues:

Post your installer log, found in the same place you ran the installer

This log will be called either installer.log or named the same as the installer but with .log on the end

Note for Windows users:

Windows hides file extensions by default so the installer may appear without the .jar extension then when the .log is added the log will appear with the .jar extension

Where to get it:

Mojang Launcher: When using the Mojang launcher debug.log is found in .minecraft\logs.

Curse/Overwolf: If you are using the Curse Launcher, their configurations break Forge's log settings, fortunately there is an easier workaround than I originally thought, this works even with Curse's installation of the Minecraft launcher as long as it is not launched THROUGH Twitch:

or alternately,

Fallback ("No logs are generated"):

If you don't see logs generated in the usual place, provide the launcher_log.txt from .minecraft

Server Not Starting:

Reporting Illegal/Inappropriate Adfocus Ads:

Posting your mod as a GitHub Repo:

The tl;dr is that 1.13.2 is in a usable beta condition, so expect bugs

  I recently started playing the modpack "ancient dawns" in which i added Create to play with on my world, however when placing a mechanical press down my game crashes. I have tried to remove Oculus, embedium, rubidium, and even changed the flywheel backend to instancing but nothing seems to fix the problem.

  Okay, you were right, the problem was that changing this setting in the config file didn't seem to take effect. He had to join the server in a place where there were no Create blocks being rendered and use the command. /flywheel backend flywheel:instancing
