jar mods for 1.6.+ refer to [Alternative install] for alternative method(quicker method)

referencing>>http://www.minecraft...mac-compatable/

i might mess up in summerising so that^^^ is there.

1: get the mod(s) that you want to install, put ALL of the contents of **(ALL)the mod(s) that would have otherwise gone into the jar
into one zip, change extension from (zip/7zip) to (jar)
**(they dont realy have to all be in one jar, just saves from repeating the later prossesses)refer to {one jar} for more details

2: Go to .minecraft/libraries/net and create the following folders: examplefile/examplefile/examplefile's version
you can name it whatever you want*(first two MUST be the same 2 my knowledge), just know that it should foullow this format:
*due to a bug in the launcher you may not use spaces while nameing ANYTHING durring this whole prosses "dammit cpw!!!"

Derpyjar/Derpyjar/v01/Derpyjar-vo1.jar when Derpyjar-vo1 is the name of your jar

(NOTE THAT THE [ - ] BETWEEN IS NESSASARY FOR IT TO WORK)
-youll need to remember(copy) the location of the file for the next part.

3: go to .minecraft/versions you should see a file named 1.6.2, copy&paste that file into the same place,
rename the file to whatever you want, youll have to rename the files inside to the same thing.
open the .json with a text editor(notepad) youll see some thing like this {"id": "1.6.2","time"...
change the 1.6.2 to whatever you named the files in versions, next
while still editing the json(the text file) find the text "libraries": [
immediatly after that(or after forge) paste this

{
"name": "net.Derpyjar:Derpyjar:v01",
"url": "http://127.0.0.1/"
},

replacing Derpyjar with the location of your jar with your mods in it using the same format

"net.examplefile:examplefile:examplefile's version",

save&close

4: (restarting your launcher is required @ this point if youve had it open)
set -Dfml.ignorePatchDiscrepancies=true in the jvm arguments of the profile you are going to use

EX: -Xmx1gb -Dfml.ignorePatchDiscrepancies=true

go into "use version" and select the one you changed the json(the text document) for.
and of course save the changes youve made.
asumming you were able to follow my shortend version it should work.

{after setting this up once you shouldent have to do this again, you can simply shove all your jar mods into the derpyjar-v01.jar
and they will be installed, however if you chose not to you gain an newfound ability to micro-manage your modding from the vanila client}

[pretty sure you can just direcly intall jar mods normaly into the jar inside versions/1.6.2,
please note that you will probaly still need to set -Dfml.ignorePatchDiscrepancies=true to use forge with your jar mods,
however this seems to be cleaner&easier for adding&removal of jar mods, so i recomend it]

notes:
this is a workaround origonaly intended for optifine&forge to work together for 1.6.2 scence forge refuses to use jars that have been modded.
it works with and without forge&optifine, if this helped i'm glad to have been of asistance,
if not please refer to the origonal thread for a more in-depth walkthru

you are done! after this is misc info & tips, I sugest you read them.

One jar
{after setting this up once you shouldent have to do this again, you can simply shove all your jar mods into the derpyjar-v01.jar (or whatever you nammed it)
and they will be installed, however if you chose not to you gain an newfound ability to micro-manage your modding from the vanila client. for each version you can pick and chose from the jars in libraries/net for the mods you want for that version by edditing the versions .json file to include the jars(mods) you want}

Alternative install-
[pretty sure you can just direcly intall jar mods normaly into the jar inside versions/1.6.2,
please note that you will probaly still need to set -Dfml.ignorePatchDiscrepancies=true (step #4) to use forge with your jar mods,
however the libraries/net method(the one that starts @ #1) seems to be cleaner&easier for adding&removal of jar mods, so i recomend it]
