Forge isn't even showing up for 1.6.1!

[Red_Rabbit]

I went and made a new version for minecraft and named it 1.6.1_modded, sounds simple enough right? Well I finished making it, removed the META file, and changed it so everything worked. I tested and everything worked fine, and when I dragged the contents of the Forge zip file into the 1.6.1_modded.jar it seemed everything would work out fine. I started it, launched the 1.6.1_modded version of minecraft and... nothing. No mods bar under multiplayer. No start up of FML. Nothing. For some reason it didn't work. It ran like normal vanilla minecraft, with no FML. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? Note: I tried installing  the 8.9.0.764 universal version, and when that didn't work I used my backup to undo it and tried the installer version. Both of them did as I said earlier.

and before anyone starts yelling at me about the client log... it was blank.

Did you remember to make sure your minecraft loader was running the forge version in your profile?

[Red_Rabbit]

Yes, both of them were running 1.6.1

I dont understand how many times I have to explain this.

Use the Installer

You DO NOT put Forge/FML in your jar anymore.

Jar modding is DEAD. Anyone who does it should stop!
