no clue what went wrong.

It has worked before, or you just installed? 'cause if it's the first time you try, maybe you installed forge wrong (2012-10-21 18:58:42 [iNFO] [sTDERR] Exception in thread "Minecraft main thread" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/minecraftforge/client/SkyProvider <--- my guess is this means a forge class is missing, which means forge wasn't installed properly)

So, if it's the first try, go and try again -If you find it difficult, try and download a mod installer, like MultiMC and MCpatcher, and let the installer do the work-. If it repentinely stoped working while it did before, we can move on with the thread.

it is my first time installing TFC, but it runs fine until i put the mod into the mod folder... any indication what could be wrong? do i need to extract the zip to the mod folder or leave it zipped? i wasnt sure on that.

[Just_Another_Guy_:) 1,066]

leave it zipped... You have any mod already in your minecraft jar, other than forge?

[ElvanIV 5]

zombe. but its not in the jar, i uninstalled it.

[ElvanIV 5]

i reinstalled following the instructions very carefuly, again, the problem only occured when i put TFC mod in the mods folder.

i used multimc this time.

EDIT: Found one of the problems, the link to forge i was using was old, but now that i have installed the proper version, it is getting stuck at updating minecraft, dont loading. yes i deleted meta-inf and i also tried without deleting meta-inf, really desperate to play.

so, following this video:

i do not get a download for TFC_game or Guava anywhere, cant find a reliable install guide anywhere, even here on the forums. the only download is a universal download that doesnt have texture guava or game folder in it.......what do i do?

the above doesnt have TFC_game or Guava or Texture.

did you delete META-INF? because that causes a black screen after Mojang, i think. There is an install guide on the download page for TFC, it really isn't very complicated...

i read to keep meta-inf before last post, so i reinstalled from a fresh jar, and it gets stuck at updating minecraft done loading screen, like when you install a normal mod and forget to delete meta-inf, so im at a loss.

FOUND A SOLUTION, used forge 4.1.2.269

opened minecraft, and ran it to start menu, closed it

installed Player API 1.7, ran it to start menu, closed it

dropped zipped file (TFCraft universal core B2 Build52e) in mods folder, ran it, runs fine.

WHY I HAD TO RUN IN BETWEEN EACH STEP IS BEYOND ME, its completely stupid, i have installed in that exact order several times previously, but it never got past the mojang screen until now, but it worked.

[ItchyFlea 5]

Nevermind. You got it working.

i'll be setting up a server tomorrow, you're all welcome to come play if you don't already play on a server, and if you're not going to be a murderer or a thief.
