Forge not working, tried several installments

[MX32]

Hello everyone! This is my first post here, so I salute you all! I hope this is in the right place and rightly posted, if not, my apologies!

 

Here are the details:

 

i - Clean install of MC 1.5.2.

ii - Downloaded: minecraftforge-universal-1.5.2-7.8.1.737.zip

iii - Opened minecraft.jar (WinRar)

iv - Opened minecraftforge-universal-1.5.2-7.8.1.737.zip (WinRar)

v - Dragged all files from minecraftforge-universal-1.5.2-7.8.1.737.rar into minecraft.jar

vi - Opened META-INF inside of minecraft.jar and deleted all files starting with "MOJANG" as per instruction.

vii - Closed all archive files and opened Minecraft    ---|>  launcher opens

viii - Clicked on "launch"

ix - Text-box appears: "FML is setting up your minecraft environment". The moment the window changes to "Library file scala-library.jar was downloaded and verified successfully" (at 0% on the progress bar for this "task") , the following text-box appears:

 

"There was a fatal error setting up minecraft and FML

Minecraft cannot launch in its current configuration

Please consult the file C:\Users\***\Roaming\.minecraft\ForgeModLoader-client-0.log for further information"

 

 

Minecraft crashes and cannot be launched anymore, therefore clean install (back to step i). Repeat steps iii, iv, v and the DELETED the folder META-INF. Continue with steps and same result is obtained. Read some posts and tried this:

 

-Repeated steps i throughout vi

-Downloaded fml_libs.zip which includes the files which the launcher attempts to download.

-Disconnected from internet, just in case.

- Placed these files in the folder "lib" (C:\Users\***\Roaming\.minecraft\lib)

-Launched MC

 

Same error.

 

Repeated this last one but WITH internet-connection - same result.

 

 

So now I spent a few hours (literally) googling around to find a solution. If it really is something something silly I DO apoligize!

Anyone have an idea?

 

 

Thank you for your time folks, hope to be able to fix this soon!!!

Everything seems to download correctly...? I don't understand.

[LexManos]

Is that the entity of your current log?

It should at least have the error if it's displaying that message on screen.

[MX32]

It is (ForgeModLoader-client-0). But like I mentioned it didn't really get a chance to install correctly (fatal error), assuming this is what it finishes doing after connecting.

I also don't understand why no errors show up here, but then again I was surprised to find the forge logs there at all.

Just tried magic launcher:
