When I use 1.7.10 or even 1.7.2 forge, I open launcher, select profile, press play, launcher disappears, nothing else happens. I can run any other profile fine, so it's not java.

Help!


EDIT:

Solution found, I had to get rid of all java installed on my computer that have the number 8 in them, like java 8, get java 7 instead.

Your problem is you're using Java 8u20. A few weeks ago it was made clear that 8u20 broke Forge. Use 8u11 or the latest Java 7 if you want Forge to work.

Also, hi from Maryland.

It turns out, in the past I had installed java 7 without uinstalling java 8.


Which do I uninstall?

I personally, do not want to delete my appdata folder, I have lots of stuff, and I suck at copying and replacing my old file backups. Also, how do I check if I have java 7 or 8? Some people online say you need java 7. And also, how do I completely uninstall java, in case I need to, so I can install java 7.

There's your problem. Delete all version of java you have and install java 7. It should be the only one on the website.

I went to http://files.minecraftforge.net/ and downloaded the forge 1.7.10 installer. I ran it, selected client, and it installed. I know I got it from the right site, because I had gotten 1.6.4 installer working in the past from there.


That does seem to be the correct site. Try deleting your .minecraft folder (apart from saves and texture packs) and then starting over from there. It is very possible that forge didn't install the correct libraries.

Fair enough. I need a few bits of information from you.

How you installed forge (Be precise please):

I need the error report. Look at the developers log and post it here.

Dude, there is no error! It doesn't take me back to the launcher, so no report. No report in crash-report folder, or in .minecraft, forge crash reports.

I have had this happen before. Delete the forge profile and completely uninstall the mod. Then proceed to make a new profile without any mods for the version you want to play, or play it if you already have a clean vanilla profile. Now resinstall the mod as usual and it should work! Sometimes it means you just miss a step in the process, if not it could be something more severe.

It's 1.7.10, and yeah, I've run 1.7.2 and 1.7.10 before, so no.

Xslare
DruxeNo errors, I run minecraft with forge, launcher disappears. Nothing else happens.


.minecraft\crash-reports\crash-$time-$date-client.txt

Look there.


I get no crash reports or forge crash reports.

I don't exactly get what you mean. Which mod do I uninstall, if you mean forge, how? What do you mean "new profile without mods for the version you want to play" I already have a clean vanilla profile. Which mod do I reinstall?
