Hi guys. While I am new to this forum, I am not new to Minecraft. I have played for many moons but I never really did anything modding related. I have been working on this for the past 2 days (trying to understand how to do this mod stuff), and I have questions I can't seem to find answers to. I have searched the boards, but alas, here I am; pouring my mod-noob soul out.

I also don't have a bin folder. I have a versions folder with 1.6.2 and Forge 1.6.2. I also don't have a paulscode folder with the codecs that are supposed to be in there.
I threw Chococraft (zipped file) in the mods folder. Didn't work. Ok more reading. One of the first posts on that thread was an error. Read it. Oh I need something called mod loader 1.2.4. Deleted META-inf every time fyi. Which btw. I have no idea how I was supposed to know I needed 1.2.4 mod loader because no where on that page does it say which versions on what I need.
Downloaded it. Question 1: WHERE DO I EVEN PUT IT. Do I unarchive the forge folder and put it inside and re-.jar it? I tried that and it came up with errors saying I edited Forge and that's a no-no.
Ok so, I put it in my version 1.6.2.jar. Re-.jar it. Doesn't load. WTF.
So I click the link to the old thread. I need Mod-loader, AudioMod, and CustomMobSpawner. Again. WHICH VERSION AM I PUTTING THEM IN x.xa
If I put them all in custom, it doesn't do anything because, I'm assuming, I'm not using Forge.
I am so frustrated. If I find a video on something that shows a how-to, I'm missing like 2 of the main folders: bin and paulscode. I have no idea what to do or where to go from here.
Chococraft it's for 1.5.x and you want to install it in 1.6.2. Basic rule
I don't understand. You say it's FOR 1.5.x, so I want to install it in 1.6.2...? If I install it all in that folder it all gets deleted. If I make a copy of it and install it all in the copy, it's not being ran through forge....

If it's for 1.5 and you try to install it in 1.6.x OBVIOUSLY it will doesn't work.
Ok so I decided to just download Minecraft 1.5.2 instead. I put Forge (the recommened one for 1.5.2), ModLoader 1.2.4 (I read that if you had Forge you don't need Modloader, but, in the Chococraft forum they said you needed 1.2.4) AudioMod, and CustomMobSpawner(in the mods folder) and now all I get is a black screen... Wtf.

Newer versions of minecraft DOES NOT work with older versions of minecraft mods (most of the time).
A mod that works with 1.5.2 will not work for 1.6.2 and one that works for 1.6.2 will not work for 1.5.2 (unless the mod developer updates his/her mod).
A minecraft mod for 1.5.x will ONLY work with 1.5.x and not with 1.6.x.
Let's say you got an USB you want to plug into an USB port. Great it works. Now let's say you buy a newer model of the computer but this time the USB won't work because they changed how the USB port looks like resulting in the USB not fitting inside the USB port.
