Hellen Keller was Blind, Deaf and became Educated. The people we Keller here are only two of those things. We hope to see them overcome the cripplingly disability of not being able to read or listen, in order to gain the third.

Pink names let's us quickly determine who is expendable while hovering over the ban button.

This is a known problem and it can't be fixed by us. I know there's a FIX IT TECHNIC TEAM mentality, but we don't make these mods. It's a problem with one of the mods that will need to be fixed on that end. For now if your players can't be trusted, disable EE or CTII or use permission plugins to limit what your players can do.

Is there any box Maru WON'T play with?!?!?

Do you have an adventure map you want to share? Perhaps a tutorial map? Maybe you just want to share a really cool build. You can do it here. Even if the map doesn't use technic or tekkit or Yogbox etc. Just be sure to say what mods are needed. At the moment there's no standard format for OP's, but please do put effort into your posts. We won't punish you if you don't, but people wont bother with your maps, and that's a punishment in and of itself. Suggestions for a good OP [li]Talk about your map. What makes it special/useful/interesting/exciting/etc?[/li] [li]Post screencaps of the map. This is a MUST.[/li] [li]Use a good host to upload your map like www.mediafire.com[/li] [li]Provide links to the mods needed to run your map.

And another one is up this morning. Tipping my hat to the people I assume only read my comics because they're on the yogscast site.

Midas isn't a perfect system. ID's changed in the latest version and most maps are not compatible without a lot of work. Look up midas gold and seek further support directly, since we can't offer support for midas gold.

Main Common Problems and Solutions Thread here: http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/common-problems-and-solutions.3405/

If the instructions below are not clear enough for you to understand, please use Google to assist yourself. We can not babysit you, and the solutions below assume you have a basic understanding of the computer you're using. If not, ask for help from someone who does, or your parents, or your friends, etc. MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS UP TO DATE BEFORE YOU CONTINUE. Where is my Technic Launcher folder? Windows: C:\Users\"User Name"\%AppData%\Roaming\.techniclauncher Mac: Users\"User Name"\Library\Application Support\.techniclauncher The folders may be hidden, so make sure to make hidden folders visible in your systems settings. Google will tell you how. Where are the files for the different versions, Technic SSP, Tekkit, Yogbox and Vanilla? They are all contained in their own folders inside the .techniclauncher folder. When a solution includes "modpack name", it means go to the proper folder for the pack you are using. Where are the logs for reporting a problem? Your "Logs" folder is located in .technicfolder. The most recent will always be "launcher_0". How do I find out what bit version my Operating System is? (32 or 64) This website shows how to find out your operating systems bit version: http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/win/64bit.html (If this link is ever broken, please PM me) How do I tell what bit version of JAVA I have? (32 or 64) This is a little trickier and there are many different ways depending on your OS. Google will have to help you here. One possible way to find out if you don't have 64 bit JAVA is to load up Vanilla minecraft (Not using the Technic Launcher), and in the game options, turn the view distance to Far. If you are using 32 bit JAVA, you will see a red error message. That will only come up if minecraft is using 32 bit Java. A thing to note, if you have a 64 bit OS, it is perfectly fine to have both versions of Java installed. Most web browsers use 32 bit Java, and Minecraft will default to 64 bit if you have it. The launcher stops in the middle of downloading the mods. The most common reason is that your antivirus is blocking it. Common perps are AVG and Norton. You need to set technic as an exception. If that doesn't work, turn it off while you download the mods. If that doesn't work, uninstall those terrible anti-virus programs and get one that doesn't get in your way constantly. Two anti-virus programs that are much much better are Microsoft Security Essentials and Avast. AVG and Norton aren't worth the money they cost, especially when outclassed by free options. TMI doesn't work! I'm sorry to hear it! Good thing TMI isn't in the technic pack. Perhaps you're thinking of NEI? Fine! NEI doesn't work! Actually, it does. See this thread for more information. http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/nei-common-problems-and-fixes.2206/ The mod select button doesn't work. Your computer might not have any program designated to open config files. Go to your .techniclauncher and find the "Config" folder in any of the mod folders you have already installed. (They will be empty if you haven't yet.) Right click a file ending in .cfg, select "open with..." and set Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (Mac) as the default program that opens it. Your mod select button should now work as long as you have a pack selected in the drop down. Some mods can't be turned off with the mod select config. Some of the mods in technic have to be applied directly to the .jar, so unfortunately that means to turn them off you'll have to remove the files manually. The associated files will be in .techniclauncher\"modpack name"\bin\modpack.jar. Look up the mod you want to disable and find out what files it adds so you can remove them. The launcher freezes on a white screen when I log in. Sometimes the lwjgl (Light Weight Java Games Library) binaries just don't work for everyone. Disable lwjgl by opening the launcher and clicking "Options" above the log in field. Then uncheck "Use latest LWJGL binaries". The latest LWJGL binaries option wasn't/isn't on and I am still getting a white screen. Might be time to post a bug/problem report. But first, try going to .techniclauncher\"modpack name"\bin and open the jinput.jar. (on a mac you may have to rename the .jar to .zip and extract it, then rezip and rename to a .jar after you're done.) Delete Meta-INF. If that doesn't work nuke the .techniclauncher folder and re-download it. Opening the .exe does nothing, or flashes a loading icon, or says "checking launcher version" then closes. This is a Java issue. The most common cause is using 32 bit Java. If your Operating system is 64 bit, make sure you update to the latest 64 bit version of Java. Links on www.technicpack.net. If no matter what you do, the exe just doens't work, go to your .techniclauncher folder and there should be a .jar in there. If not then download it from www.technicpack.net and use that. Read further up the list for how to determine the bit version of your OS or JAVA. I get an error that says "Can't find JAVA directory". The cause and solution to this problem is the same as the problem directly above this one. You're most likely using the incorrect bit version of JAVA, or it isn't up to date. Find out if you need the 64 bit version of JAVA and then go to www.technicpack.net and use the JAVA download links. Read further up the list for how to determine the bit version of your OS or JAVA. I've tried everything but I still can't get it to work with my 32 bit OS. Not sure what to tell you. A temporary fix could be to use the .jar instead of the .exe which seems to work for most people. If we manage to isolate a common cause to 32 bit OS issues then we'll update with a real fix. I can't log into my tekkit server anymore, it says I am missing mods this means you are not using the correct version of tekkit. the most common cause is trying to a development version instead of the recommended build. in the launcher, make sure tekkit is selected, then click on "options" and click on "always use recommended builds". once you've done that, click ok and log in to tekkit. [More problems and solutions will be added in the future. This list is subject to change.] Thank you to Zebrin for starting the original FAQ thread.

Re: JAVA ERROR FIX (Read!) This thread is now redundant due to the new common problems sticky, so it will be unstickied and left to float as a Java discussion thread.

Re: Common Problems (And their solutions) A new thread has been created with corrected and updated information. Thank you Zabrin for creating this one.

AVG will protect you, whether you like it or not.

Press "O". This thread is a waste of space as you could just easily look this information up, and no, this isn't the correct place.

New comic up.

Also your java has to match your OS. Win 7 64 bit? You need 64 bit Java 7. 32 bit? You need 32 bit Java 7. As a note, you might have to just use the Jar if you're running a 32 bit OS.

Yes. KakerMix and Agelian would be the most appropriate.

Well that's good. Problem solved. Also something to note, make sure you don't have the game or launcher running when you edit the config or it will revert.

It's probably been both.
