Typically a mod is only supported and will only function correctly on the version of Minecraft it was written for. Eloraam's RP2 is a very extensive mod, and I have a feeling it will get updated, but it may be when 1.4 is released, since that is coming so soon.
where do you get your info? I'd like to stay updated and informed.
RedPower2 is for 1.2.5. And it probably won't be released for 1.3.2 for a long time, if at all.
With that being said, can i use newer versions of mods with an older version of minecraft?
Also, i would assume that Eloaarm would be updating her mod to the newest version of minecraft since all the other modders she usually is paired with are doing the same (ie IC2 and buildcraft). Granted, this is being hopeful towards a speedy release of some kind to 1.3 even if there isn't any new concepts.
and thank you by the way. It was bugging me for a while and this explains why i've been having so many issues with installing other mods.
I am having a very interesting issue. I'm trying to install Red Power 2 and it will not show up no matter where I put the files. I have the latest forge version and RP2. Forge is in the Jar tab. I've placed RP2 in the jar, coremods, and mods tabs and still i get nothing when it loads.
I have the forge log below to see if anybody notices something out of place within.

Know what could cause this?
I believe I found the issue since i was having the exact same one. Both Chickencore and NEI need to be put in your Coremods folder. I'm using MultiMC to install mods and that is the tab you want to be using for Chickencore and NEI.
