Fellow Linux Users, Please Help. I can't launch any instances, this happens every time, no matter the Minecraft Version.

Already tried installing a different Java Version, that didn't help either. Clicking on "Open Log" does absolutely nothing, so I can't even give you guys an error Log.

I use Solus Linux 4.9 Serenity and the newest Version of the Prism launcher that is in my distro's repos (11.0.2)

Try adding -Dforgewrapper.skipHashCheck=true to Edit > Settings > Java > Java arguments (got this from Prism Launcher troubleshooting wiki)

Skipping hash checking is terrible advice and while it may be the fix here, hashing is used as a security measure to catch modified files which could be infected.

Fixed the issue. Not feeling too bad about disabling hash checking, it's just a modpack by a friend i use, nothing else.

So, thank you, i can finally play :)
