Posted May 6, 20196 yr After installing Forge 1.13.2 - 25.0.191 using the official launcher from the official website (http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/net/minecraftforge/forge/index_1.13.2.html), which is the latest version as of writing this, my official Minecraft launcher fails to load the version info. Why I think there is a problem: The version 1.13.2-forge-25.0.191 is not visible in the launcher version selection dialogue after doing the same steps as with all other versions of Forge. What I have done: Using the "old" (1.6.89-j) official Minecraft launcher with an account I legitimately own I downloaded and installed release 1.13.2. It works fine. After that, I downloaded in the manner described above the official installer of Forge 1.13.2 - 25.0.191 and installed Forge. The installer reported that the installation went successfully. I re-launched the launcher several times making sure that no other launchers are open, and I could not find the version in the version selection dialogue (found in the "Edit Profile" menu) after a thorough search (having previously installed Forge I know to check the entire list). I also searched the list with "snapshots", "beta" and "alpha" versions enabled. I checked the JSON file the installer must have generated to see what the version name was and I cannot see any problems with it. I posted it just in case. After that, I checked my launcher's log. This is what I saw. I believe that it might be a problem with the JSON file and not the official launcher I am using. The research I have done: I duckduckgo'ed the problem and the only two related posts were on this forum, none of which received a reply because the posters were banned. I just wonder why the questions could not be answered still. I shall therefore include this: Spoiler I own a legitimate Minecraft account that I legitimately purchased from Mojang a while ago. I used the official Minecraft launcher which has not been altered in any way. I read the forum rules and I stress that this problem is not related to any cracked versions of the game. I read the subforum's EAQ. debug.log: not applicable installer logs: initial install (unfortunately lost), re-installation attempt. I will provide any other useful info on demand.
May 6, 20196 yr Author Does that mean the Forge dropped support for the old launcher? That is not mentioned anywhere, even in the EAQ. Edited May 6, 20196 yr by OLEGSHA
May 6, 20196 yr Author Interestingly enough, 1.12 still worked fine. Oh well, I guess I have to quit being a dinosaur one day. Thanks for clearing that out.
