5 Open your minecraft launcher again (Make sure you've set up your Forge profile If not then read Part 3 again). Click "Play" and you just need to wait for it to download additional libraries. Haters Gonna Hate When it's done, you can play your now modded game! It loaded and everything is up-to-date. The launch screen is all I see. What can I do?
Add more RAM, and If that doesn't work delete your system32 file (even if it tells you it's corrupted). Then, restart your computer. Thanks! Yes No Not Helpful 22 Helpful 5

Some mods require core mods (e.g. CodeChickenCore) therefore make sure you read over a mod's page before downloading as it won't function if it doesn't have its required core mods.
