Open Terminal and type

chmod 755<a space goes here>

then drag the install.sh file from the folder into the Terminal window and hit enter.

It should look like this after dragging if it still is on the desktop.

chmod 755 /Users/IsaacTobalina/Desktop/forge/install.sh

Then, drag the install file into Terminal again and hit enter once more.

That means that install.py doesn't exist. Did you move the script from its original location?

Like I said - the error is telling you that install.py doesn't exist. Does the file install.py exist?

The install.sh shell script may be using the install.py Python script as part of the install process. If this is indeed the case, you'll need to execute the script from the directory of the installer since the author will not have hard coded the path to the Python script. To do this, do the following:

1. Open up a Terminal window and enter the following:
Code: 
cd <path to script>
Replace <path to script> with the directory that the script is in. You can get this easily by simply dragging the folder that the script is in and dropping it on the Terminal window. Press enter to change directories.

2. Enter the following and press enter:
Code: 
sh install.sh
