Disable your Anti-Virus and run it again.

Disable your Anti-Virus and try it again.

I have exactly the same problem, though disabling anti-virus worked for me. I'm asking for a slightly more permanent solution in my thread. Keep an eye on it, it should help you out.

Well, that worked. That said, do I just create a path exemption for the shields in Avast! or will something more drastic have to be done. And in reference to the creating a path exemption, would I just have to exempt the loader itself from being checked?

Title: Launcher Crashing with "NullPointException" Version: 1_0_3 OS: Windows 7 SP 1 64-bit Java Version: Java 7 21 Description of Problem: While this happens with every single modpack I've tried thus far, BigDig and Tekkit, it also happens with every version I attempt to load. It will get all the way to the Mojang screen, pause and then tell me it's crashed with a NullPointException. It seems to be happening at the "Modular Power Suits" mod primarily but I could be wrong at that. Running 1.0.6 as it's the latest build. Tried with 0.5 and BigDig Lastest and the version one previous. Error Messages: Failed to start game java.lang.NullPointerException Error Log: ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // Why did you do that?
