  1. add java's executable to your system path. that is your issue.
  2. OP, I don't know if you noticed but the blue names? that means the person is a moderator, which means they are a) not 10, knowledgeable, and c) able to see and laugh about your reports. in closing: my judgement is that you are guilty, and probably spoiled as a child or something. please try and stop me from doing that again, I implore you.
  3. I am tempted to write a script that would comb my logs of the channel and find all the instances of this automatically.
  4. I meant "is". you won't get far enough for it to complain if your hosting isn't working. kinda like the issue you are having now. I'd check the link you're using, as you may have run afoul of dropbox's direct downloading limits.
  5. for some reason I've seen issues with zips produced by winrar. use windows' built in zipping functionality or something like 7zip if you're feeling frisky. also, if you're getting errors about the zip itself (you are), your hosting is working.
  6. it's probably picking it up because it downloads things and whatnot. there aren't any viruses or malware in the launcher download, assuming you got it from us directly.
  7. to add to what munaus said, increasing max ram almost never increases performance. feel free to try it, but don't go crazy and use like 7Gb, becaues it will be worse than using 1. the only reason to increase it would be if you're getting out of memory errors. and in some cases, if you are getting those, the answer is to decrease allocated RAM, not increase it. like I said though, feel free to give it a try anyway
  8. here's mine by a comedy group called BYU divine comedy I'm not sure I need to explain what this says about me, haha. at the risk of being too obvious I suppose I will do it anyway. it says I'm very smart, a huge nerd, and possess an encyclopedic knowledge of a lot of things.
  9. new launcher for 1.6 is being worked on. as usual, no ETA though. the only launcher comparable to technic would be ftb, and I don't think they are up to 1.6.x with their stuff yet, either. patience is a virtue.
  10. hello, I'm a moderator and I am not amused.
  11. man, it's like all the mods are coded by amateurs in their spare time! unbelievable!
  12. this was just added to the common problems and solutions thread. look at this thread here: http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/mac-os-x-nothing-starts-up-temporary-launcher-fix.49661/ for a solution
  13. that's pretty much the definition of a low effort post. if you want to inform people of something, don't just copy/paste the same damn thing 500 times into your post and nothing else.
  14. ava.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.launch.MinecraftClassLoader.index(MinecraftClassLoader.java:90) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.launch.MinecraftClassLoader.<init>(MinecraftClassLoader.java:68) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.launch.MinecraftLauncher.getClassLoader(MinecraftLauncher.java:60) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.UpdateThread.runTasks(UpdateThread.java:147) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.UpdateThread.run(UpdateThread.java:95) java.util.zip.ZipException: error in opening zip file at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(Unknown Source) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.launch.MinecraftClassLoader.index(MinecraftClassLoader.java:90) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.launch.MinecraftClassLoader.<init>(MinecraftClassLoader.java:78) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.launch.MinecraftLauncher.getClassLoader(MinecraftLauncher.java:60) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.UpdateThread.runTasks(UpdateThread.java:147) at org.spoutcraft.launcher.UpdateThread.run(UpdateThread.java:95) this is your problem. it can't open modpack.jar for whatever reason. I extracted the files, put them into a zip file using windows and then renamed it to modpack.jar and it worked. give that a shot. and by "worked" I mean it didn't load vanilla. it doesn't actually load at all currently and just hangs when it gets to NEI it seems. but at least the tries to load some mods, which is more than it was doing before.
  15. give me a link to your modpack file and I'll tell you what's wrong with it
  16. well you have a modpack.jar, but chances are that you did not create it correctly. usually people balls it up by including extra folders in it or other things like that. the file structure inside the .jar file is very important.
  17. ok stay with me here you ready? paused your youtube and muted the TV? good. THEY AREN'T SUPPOSED TO DO THAT. you won't see it happen, it doesn't happen on the disk at all ever. I'm trying not to bury you in jargon here but you are not getting it so here you go. the modpack.jar file is essentially superimposed on top of minecraft.jar via reflection by the launcher. no files are altered, the class replacement happens in memory (that's RAM, not your HDD) and is not permanent or written to disk in any way. that is what is happening. the merging is not an actual but a virtual one. is that clear enough now?
  18. listen, the rules are there for a reason. that reason is not to be ignored because you're new. additionally, this is hexxit discussion. the bug board is over here which is where this thread belongs and also where the OP might have found an answer to his problem without even posting. I didn't even give him a warning for posting in the wrong place (which is worse than post signing, btw). on top of that he gives little to no information other than what amounts to "it's broke, fix plx" which is why all you can offer for solutions is "delete everything an try again", because you have no idea what the actual problem is just like everyone else. so yes, my initial reply was just fine, thanks. if you have a problem with the rules being enforced, I don't know what to tell you
  19. hey guy, I have a problem with a thing. it doesn't do the stuff!! please learn telepathy so you can understand what I'm saying instead of me actually communicating clearly. dear freakachu P.S. don't sign your posts. this is a forum post, not a letter. P.P.S. "dear" generally goes at the beginning. this is like saying "greetings" at the end, which is also dumb.
  20. I mean, the old versions are not being remade. if you enjoyed the old versions so much you should have kept your copy intact instead of either deleting or updating it in the first place. outside of that, you will have to recreate your one true modpack yourself.
  21. then you are not setting up your modpack.jar correctly or there is some other issue. you seem to think they will literally merge and you will be left with a single, merged minecraft.jar. this isn't the case. you will always have both files, they are merged by the launcher in memory and not actually turned into one file at any point. that's why it's black magic. (it's not actually magic)
