terron

The problem appears to be fixed as of 01/25. Thanks to whomever.

And because we all know a picture is worth a thousand words:

Launcher Version: Current version as of today, can't find that number handy Operating System: Windows 7 Java Version: JRE 7 update 11, 64 bit with JDK Antivirus Program: None Description of Problem: Open technic launcher, get a loading animation briefly, screen goes white and stays white. Left it that way for 10+ minutes, no change, no modpack selection available, nothing. I read the common problems thread, tried manually downloading the JAR and placing it into the .techniclauncher directory but that did not change the symptoms. Wiped out .minecraft and started fresh, no change. Sadface. Error Messages: None Error Log: [07:33:44] [sEVERE] Launcher is starting....
