ive been trying to play modrinth with the forge launcher, and for some reason when i click play, after a few seconds it just stops. it doesnt even launch the game properly. this also happens on curseforge, except it brings me to the minecraft launcher, but when i click on play it says game crashed, and gives me error code 1.
does anyone know any solutions for this? ive tried literally everything ive seen on the intetnet, updating drivers? doesnt work. installing latest java version, done and doesnt work. getting the latest forge version? done and also doesnt work.
i really badly want to get this fixed as im currently having to play on fabric, which i dont mind, but i had plans to play a horror mod with my friend today, which also happens to be on forge and forge only.
i have absolutely no clue whats going om, but i really need it fixed.

[17Apr2025 17:29:09.347] [main/INFO] [EARLYDISPLAY/]: If this message is the only thing at the bottom of your log before a crash, you probably have a driver issue.
Possible solutions:
A) Make sure Minecraft is set to prefer high performance graphics in the OS and/or driver control panel
B) Check for driver updates on the graphics brand's website
C) Try reinstalling your graphics drivers
D) If still not working after trying all of the above, ask for further help on the Forge forums or Discord
You can safely ignore this message if the game starts up successfully."
