Mods/Installing OptiForge/Manual Install/With Pre-made JSON

This guide will help you install  and , as well as some newer versions of required Java libraries.

Step 0.
First you must find your .minecraft directory. This directory will not exist if you have not run the minecraft launcher at least once. This tutorial will work from within this folder.

Step 1.
Create a new folder in the " " directory called " ". If you have not run the Minecraft launcher yet, you will also need to create the " " directory.

Linux: mkdir -p "$HOME/.minecraft/versions/1.6.2 OptiForge 2013.07.17"

Step 2. Download OptiForge JSON file
Download this file https://gist.github.com/Higgs1/6024672/raw (Firefox: Right click -> Save Link As...) and save it as " " in the new directory. Note the .json extension is important.

Windows: By default, windows systems do not show extensions so you will either need to enable file name extensions, or open Wordpad and paste the code into there and enter the correct file name when you save.

Linux (using wget): wget -c "https://gist.github.com/Higgs1/6024672/raw" -O \ "$HOME/.minecraft/versions/1.6.2 OptiForge 2013.07.17/1.6.2 OptiForge 2013.07.17.json"

Step 3. Download Minecraft 1.6
If you've already downloaded Minecraft 1.6.2 you can copy the " " file to " " and rename it to " "

Otherwise, download this file https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/1.6.2/1.6.2.jar (Firefox: Right click -> Save Link As...) and save it to " "

Linux (using wget): wget -c "https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/1.6.2/1.6.2.jar" -O \ "$HOME/.minecraft/versions/1.6.2 OptiForge 2013.07.17/1.6.2 OptiForge 2013.07.17.jar"
