Installing forge make me log offline

[Felina_Lain]

Hey sorry to bother you all but I'm finding myself in front of a big problem and I simply can't solve it alone.

 

I tried installing the latest forge (8.9.0.771) with the new minecraft (1.6) and using this tutorial because I could not find the installer and the tutorial found here simply did nothing (http://www.6minecraft.net/how-to-install-minecraft-forge-in-minecraft-1-6-1-guide/)

So far so good, Forge was detected and seemed to be working properly...

Then I realized it had started the game with an offline session.

 

I thought it might just be a mistake so I try again... same thing. Over and Over again.

I launch the normal minecraft, all is good, my skin appear etc...

I use the forged profile and I can only get the steeve skin and appear offline...

 

Anyone know why this happen?

 

(It might be related but my achievements get reset every time I use forge too)

Close the game a hit the logout button on the launcher and then relogin/enter you password on the launcher. The profile that you actually logged into last is the only valid one.

 

I have multiple profiles and have had this problem,  so I make sure that I always log out and back in when switching profiles or If I have any other login issues.

DONT USE 6MINECRAFT.NET ITS A SCAM/AD/RIPOFF SITE THAT HAS NO AFFILIATION WITH ANYTHING FORGE RELATED

Follow our directions and use the installer.

Damn a scam site? Well I'll take it off my favorites then, but in that case can I have a link to the installer? All those I found on the forum give me a 404 error page when I click them >.>

 

And thanks for the two answers ^^

Okay I downloaded the last file, installer version, but I thought there would be something like... a exe or whatever to launch to do all the stuff?

Or isn't that what installer mean?

[Felina_Lain]

Sorry, I didn't know you could run .jar like .exe I thought those were only stocking files like .zip

Now I'll know ^^

 

(nice link for the google though )
