Minecraft Halp about mods n shizzle

Hi, um...

I have a question.

How do I update my forge to 1.6.4?

It may be a stupid question to some people.

I have a bunch of mods installed on 1.6.2, but don't want to lose them, and at the same time want to use 2 mods to enhance my experience on a different server... but the server is 1.6.4... *it's not J&H, BTW.*

I'm scared that if I get the installer and install it, my 1.6.2 will be gone...

Help pls

 

Also, when I downloaded the installer for 1.6.4... it wouldn't let me open it. HAAAAAALLPPPP

 

k Would need a bit more info.

For now only can tell how to fix on windows. For mac, no clue sorry.

1. You can't run multiple version mods from one "mods" folder. You would have to change it whenever you switch from 1.6.2 to 1.6.4, only if they work on both versions.

2. Your 1.6.2 won't be gone after you installed 1.6.4 forge. Forge uses a modified jar what is placed by any version seperate. Same with the forge version libary what goes to /libarys/net

To face this it looks like this on multiple version client:
1.6.2 Vanilla
/versions/1.6.2/1.6.2.jar vanilla
/lib/net/- None -> Useing vanilla libarys

1.6.4 Vanilla
/versions/1.6.4/1.6.4.jar vanilla
/lib/net/- None -> Useing vanilla libarys

1.6.2 Forge
/versions/1.6.2 Forge/1.6.2 Forge.jar modified
/lib/net/forge 9.x.x.7xx Useing this libary for 1.6.2 Forge.jar only

1.6.4 Forge
/versions/1.6.4 Forge/1.6.4 Forge.jar modified
/lib/net/forge 9.x.x.9xx (diffrent then 1.6.2 forge lib) Useing this libary for 1.6.4 Forge.jar only

For not opening forge installer:
Restart pc
Rename the installer to forge.jar and place it to desktop. Then create a .txt with this

@echo.
@echo +==============================================================================+
@echo Forge Execute Launcher - dev. clemensmine
@echo +==============================================================================+
@echo. PRESS ANY KEY
@pause > nul
@echo off
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar forge.jar
@exit

Save it and rename it to Launcher.bat Then execute it.
(to rename it like this you have to enable "view known file extensions" in your folderoptions.
