4. If your mod file is zip file when you download it from the web, don't extract it, move the zip file to the "mods" folder. If the zip folder contains jar file, you'll need to drop the jar file in instead of the zip file.

5 Open your minecraft launcher again (Make sure you've set up your Forge profile If not, read Part 3 again). Click "Play" to begin the download of additional libraries. Once it is done you can play your mod game. Everything is updated and I tried everything I could to get it to load. All I see is the launch screen. What can I do to make it better?
You can allocate more RAM and if that fails then delete your system32 files (even when it warns you that there may be corruption). Then, restart your computer. Thanks! Yes No Not Helpful 22 Helpful 5

Some mods require core mods (e.g. CodeChickenCore requires core mods ), so make sure you've go through the mod's webpage prior to downloading. It will not work if it doesn't include the core mods required.
