Hi. I'm trying to safely and easily add the superhero mod for my son.. He is running 1.6.2 I think. Thanks

Yes that is it.. So I down load the zip file and the forge program and then drop it in the mods folder? Where is the mods folder? Thank you

Press the windows key and r and then type in %appdata% to the run command. It should bring up a bunch of files. Open the top one that says .minecraft and there should be a folder that says mods.

(couldn't help it)

Ok...one other stupid question...where do i get the latest version of forge....I see on the link that was provided for the mod it does not indicate what version to use....thanks again

Step 1 - Download Minecraft Forge. http://adf.ly/673885...recommended.jar
Step 2 - Download the Superhero Mod
Step 3 - Run the Minecraft Forge Installer, shouldn't have to change the directory, just click install.
Step 4 - CTRL + R
Step 5 - Type %appdata%
Step 6 - Go into the .minecraft folder, now, minimize this.
Step 7 - Run Minecraft .exe
Step 8 - Change Profiles, there should be a profile called "Forge" Run that, once the game starts, exit.
Step 9 - Go back you the .minecraft folder, there will now be a folder called "mods" open this.
Step 10 - Put the Superheros Mod .ZIP into the mods folder.
Step 11 - Play.

If you have any questions, just quote my post and tell me where you got stuck. There are a lot of Youtube videos on how to install mods, as well.

-Edit-
Just realized, the Super Hero Mod is not for 1.6.2 yet. Can someone tell him how to install mods for 1.5.2? I have a video on how to do it with MultiMC, but unless he wants to download MultiMC and do it my way, I've completely forgotten how to mod through the .minecraft folder.

Thanks...so since it is 1.6.2...do i still use the link of the forge you provided?? or do i need one for 1.5.2? sorry this is all new to me...im pretty good with computers and such...just trying to figure all this out...

Hi i downloaded forge and ran it...it took....i added the superheros file into the mods folder and then tried to open and got this report..

any ideas?

bumping this...thanks to everyone who has helped me out...

If you are using a version for 1.5.2, then look up MultiMC. I use it instead of the standard launcher, and it takes all the work out of installing mods on any version of minecraft EXCEPT 1.6! The method of launching minecraft, installing mods, and many more things has changed in 1.6, and MultiMC is not yet compatible.

Create an instance, play it once, then click edit mods, and click the forge button. Select the latest version, and it will install it for you. Then add the super heroes .zip file to the mods folder.
