4 Don't extract your mod file if it's zip when you download it from a website. Drag the zip file into the "mods" folder. If the zip folder contains the jar files, you'll only have to drag the jar file to the "mods" folder.

5 Open your minecraft launcher again (Make sure you've set up your Forge profile If not go through Part 3 again). You can click "Play" to start the download of additional libraries. Once the download is complete you can begin playing your mod game. It loaded and everything is up-to-date. All I see is the launch screen. Minecraft servers list What do I do?
Add more RAM, and If that doesn't work remove your system32 folder (even even if it warns you that there's a possibility of corruption). Then, restart your computer. Thanks! Minecraft servers list Yes No Not Helpful 22 Helpful 5

Some mods require core mods (e.g. CodeChickenCore) so make sure to go through the mod's website before downloading it as it won't work if it doesn't have its required core mods.
