Hello everyone! This thread is for all the hotshots who want to make their own modpack! There are many guides out there but I have found few that give you the needed files and folders to make this as easy as filling in the blanks. I will go over how to do these things yourself but if you have trouble with a particular thing, I will try and make that portion downloadable for your ease. Lets get started now! Some quick terminology: Modpack: A modpack is a collection of 5 or more mods that is in a format easy to install. Why make a modpack? Modding your own client can be difficult and very troublesome for some people and this can be a great problem for modded servers. Modpacks allow for users to very easily install the same mods and configs the server has. Forge Mod Loader: Forge Mod Loader (Commonly referred to as FML or just Forge) is the software that actually makes modding minecraft possible. Without it mods would be very difficult to install and to make. Technic.net: It is the main webpage for technic but in this guide it is referred to the actual modpack page allowing you to make and distribute modpacks. Archive: Archiving is compressing or zipping files and folders into smaller formats. Archiving is absolutely needed to make a modpack. Technic.net simply will not recognize anything else. Table of contents How to host your modpack Before giving up Mac Guide LiteLoader and Voxel mods Optifine and preinstalled servers Common errors and fixes plus FAQ Software you need! WinRar Archiver. This works very well and I have not had a single issue with this for the past 5 months. http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm I trust this site but if you are uncomfortable with it then you may use any archiving program you wish. Just be aware that some steps will be different and I will not be able to help you with a program I do not know myself. Windows OS. Yes it is slightly different for a Mac, no I do not know in what ways and how to compensate. I don’t own a Mac. If a Mac/Linux user know where things would be different, please say so and I will add those alterations to this post as I want this to be a universal guide. If at any point somthing is changed due to user input, they will be mentioned by a "-(username)" and I hope you thank them for that step!

Fixed ma pictures. Est?

Post count = 12 Joined Thursday "why not play Better Than Wolves instead?" ladys and gentlemen, we have a troll. If not then how about you go dev a mod that adds Nuclear power to output MJ? MJ is the future, EU is in the past. Embrace the change!

Oh the humanity... What compels you to laugh and insult him for a mistake that he fixed? That is purely derogatory and unnecessary. Just for fixing his mistake he is now better than 90% of the other posters here in this forum. I applaud you for using the edit button! May a successful forum life follow you!

Unless there is some kind of mod that makes the environment change the more you pollute, what does it matter?

I do agree with you on the atomic science but not with the current endgame power gen. Currently, I run a solid fuel boiler on nothing but charcoal from an auto tree farm and that supply's power to a fermenter and a still to turn the saplings from the farm into bio fuel which is then used in combustion engines. It is 100% self sustaining and outputs a good amount of MJ (Something like 40MJ/Tick). I'm still not done the setup, I want to have the biofuel go into a liquid boiler and power industrial steam engines. 18 Industrial steam engines at 8 MJ/tick is 144MJ/tick. It doesn't even need any maintenance after setup. I think that can count as endgame powergen.

Errggg... Cant edit with my phone.sry bout the double

I took these with my phone so if they look cruddy, I blame the camera!!! I finished the concept stuff. An estimate would be nice. If you say yes, I'll pay half for you to get started, and the rest when its done. Fair?

Thats not his issue. His issue is his web host dosent like the platform so he has to enable somthing called a public folder and host it from that.

A great job! The way I think it BC = BeginningGame (Its just so fast to get going) RP = MidGame(Its cheap once you get going but you need a good amount of infrastructure to get anything meaningful going) AE = Endgame (Very powerful but expensive to get going in and you need to go from chests to full AE for the transition. Also its expensive on the whole) Now you have to make do with BC much longer than normal. This to me is fine but frames, oh how I loved frames! I will miss them dearly!

Google it. I lost the link to the page that lets you.

It is.

I think he means grass.

Just got up. Looking in to it. Edit: Seems fine. Specially since your online.

Nothing insane. I'll come up with some concept stuff and post that for an estimate.

Why your welcome! *smiles from one ear to the other*

That seems very reasonable. As a packer myself, that seems like a good off load of work

Wait, I can hire you to do arts? How much for a few (4-6) server logos?

A WIP is a WIP. Maybe he's developing it in secret! OoooOoohhh!

My guess is they'll appear rebalenced later on. EE3 is a WIP and seems to only be loosely based on EE2 so far. It will eventually be that and greater than EE2 but for now its the modder giving us a glimpse into his work. For now I would go the MPS path Valkon talked about.

You didn't use a public folder did you? Theirs your issue. The platform doesn't like that form of drop box. You have to enable to public folder and host the pack from that.

*Ah hem!*

redstone engines have actually been nerfed so they break when connected to a mashine. I don't know the circumstances but I do know that you can't set and forget pumps and redstone engines anymore. IC2 pump? Herp-a-derp. I think that if you use a magmatic engine and connect your pump to it as well as your tesseract (Or whatever else you're using), it should work well and for ever as long as you don't run dry of lava.

And then lose all your money. Come to Canada! I could use a gaming friend who likes halo!

You never know what's possible. He may be able to better optimise it/come up with his own code.
