Forge Installation

Recommended Posts

Hi I'm new to minecraft mods and had no idea that Forge was needed haha.  So I go to follow a tutorial for mod installation and I download forge.  It says to click the download at the bottom of my screen and when I do it transforms into a word document rather than the installation screen.  I'm on the latest version of MC.  If you need more info just let me know.  Thanks!

There is a lot of things wrong with that video.

Firstly, they use a specific website to download mods. That site just wraps Curse which is where people actually upload their mods to. So you should go to curse directly.
Secondly they try and push you to be sure that you download a good/trusted mod. But 1) go to a random untrusted website and 2) verify that the mod is 'good' by the number of reviews.. ON the site you're downloading from.. that's a bad idea..

 

Anyways as for your issue.
Some zip managers like to take control of the .jar file extension away from Java.
Make sure you have Java installed and try running Jarfix once, then try the installer again.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.
