Minecraft Forums

My Minecraft ForgeModloader 1.4.7 wont work. The steps i used to install were:

I Forced the Minecraft update.
I downloaded Forge.
I deleted the Meta-inf.
I copied the files from Forge and dragged them into minecraft.jar.
I started Minecraft but the Mojang screen appeared and right afterwards the screen turns black.

I dont know what i did wrong, because i followed the steps on how to download it.

Help please.

i have the exact same problem!!!

My friend has the same problem, he created his own post about this problem. I don't know why I am telling you this...

The way I do it is download the latest version of FML and copy those files within the ForgeModLoader and put them inside minecraft.jar, then I delete the META-INF folder. Both ForgeModLoader and minecraft.jar have META-INF files within themselves so you probably didn't delete the META-INF folder after installed FML.

FML not working for me i get this error every time and no matter where i download FML from i get the same error. also same thing when i added it to minecraft.jar file.
