Tekkit Classic, Lite, Main (space), Legends, Hexxit, Attack of the B-team and Blightfall. I count more than 4 Technic packs and that's only by the Technic team, there's also Voltz, TPPI, Big Dig and Hack/Mine that are made by a third party that Technic hosts. Technic hosts all these packs, they pay money so people can download them. They also pay to upkeep the Platform and the forum. In both the forum and mainly now on the Discord we help users to fix many of their issues relating to launcher not working or modpack problems. we also got others jumping the helpwagon, players who enjoy giving time of their day to help others. Yours truly used to be one of them Sum that up together and you'll find that the words "sad" or "demotivating" is not the impression you get from Technic. It's quite the opposite. But you mentioned modpack bugs and why they wont patch them. There's fairly many reasons for this: Mods are either not updated/discontinued like some Hexxit mods or they are not updated for that specific MC version, as the mod dev decided to update to a newer MC version. This breaks many packs as you have to decide whether to ditch some mods that lag behind on updates in favour of a few others that has. There's also the rare occurrence when some mods working together causes such a bug that neither of the mod devs wishes to take responsibility for it. In this example I think of Attack of the B-team and the village crash. A combination of Biomes O'Plenty, Necromancy and vanilla villages caused a crash. Technic could not fix it as the issue lied in the code. But whose code was not up to debate, as the mod devs didn't see it as their problem and Mojang simply doesn't care due to it being a modded client. So Technic disabled vanilla villages as the only solution. You also have to take into consideration that Technic team is not a huge triple A company with hundreds of employers. It's Kakermix, Sct, Genpage, Talonos and Skuli. 5 dudes who has lives outside of Technic where they have to work and pay their bills. There used to be more admins than that, but many have quit to pursue their own careers or studies. Anyone making a pack, be it willy-nilly or carefully picking certain mods that play nicely together will still have some bugs inbetween them at release. It's impossible for one or two players to spot all of them, but it's guaranteed that hundreds, or in this case thousands playing Technic, will find them. It's easy to get stressed out and point fingers at Technic, while forgetting that other packs made by the community probably have the same bugs, or worse. In addition, many of the packs made by the community does not offer as much help and support as we do here. So that just leaves the laziness. They may certainly be that, but seeing as they are still here and Notch, who refused to fix anything and bailed out by selling his game and ran away with the M$ money, Technic is still going strong. That means something. So to sum it all up; Recommended is a playable version. It may not be the most bug-free but it can still be enjoyed by the majority. If you want to prove your point of them being lazy then you are very welcomed to try and fix the bugs and exploits and present your version of their pack to the Technic team. After all, CanVox, the former modpack creator in Technic, used to be a simple player before he got the position as an admin.

I noticed this yesterday How worried should I be? I don't see mobile games as anything positive that and micro transactions on the upcoming game

Hello, I am Munaus the forum and discord moderator and former tech-help guy on the non-existant Tracker for over 6 months. I like having a discussion that concerns constructive criticism. The problem is, I hardly ever find such a person. Let's be honest, because I can pull the chat logs on this, did you tell a moderator on our Discord to go fuck himself?

I haven't played Tekkit, but pictures would be better than words. Someone more experienced might tell then

Moved to Server OP Swap Shop, which is more server related.

If you mean an actual mod mod and not a modpack, the correct place and topics can be viewed here http://forums.technicpack.net/forum/37-mod-makers-market/ Modding Central is all about programming a mod, or publishing one like Viesis did in http://forums.technicpack.net/forum/36-modders-metropolis/ Here's a few concepts I've searched on when I tried and failed the modding scene http://greyminecraftcoder.blogspot.se/ http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/archive/tutorials/928406-creating-mods-modding-tutorials-absolute-beginner#entry2987474 http://thenewboston.org/tutorials.php the first two might be outdated. Note that there are few, in rare occurrences, mod devs in this forum. So hoping to get any step-by-step instructions are slim. Technic IRC might be a better spot. Google it Good luck

I've had some shitty days at work, so I did forget this glad you got it sorted out

Platform Potluck is for advertising modpacks Platform Pagoda is for discussing custom packs Moved to correct section

2 options here: 1) get in contact with the modpack developer. They should provide you with tech help, if they cared for their userbase. 2) try our Technic DIscord tech-help channel. We have a bot that could possible automatically respond to you with a soluton if it knows the issue. This requires your log

what is the name of your Platform account? and can you prove it is yours. Stop signing your name, you are clearly showing how much you ignore our forum rules.

just to be clear: you enabled the 2FA on your Technic platform account? Most people just ignore it, as do I If you haven't enabled it you can just check the reCaptcha and login

custom pack issues Moved to Pagoda

This section is not called Platform Pagoda

how could the download of the modpack have been successful if you couldn't log in through the launcher in the first place? It's like saying you drove a car and the driving went well except you couldn't find the car keys?

attachments to the forum do not work. Use a pastebin site to post the log and post the link here. You can also get help through our Discord, where you can drag and drop your log directly on our #tech-help channel and a bot may instantly give the solution

the one that runs with MC 1.6.4

4 years in our community, you say? but not a second was taken to read our rules or respect the places where these topics are posted. that really hurts my feelings

you will get more attention and response in our Discord server. The forum is quite dead

we have a Bug Report section for a reason. It's the place to post when things don't work with the launcher. Off Topic is not for this.

does the texture pack run with the same version of MC as Hexxit? It should be 1.5.2

Tekkit Main is on MC version 1.6.4, so you can only use Optifine for that version. If it still fails, consider Fastcraft as an alternative. If you're just looking for smooth gameplay
