Just a quick tip to see if your modpack link will work in the Platform:
copy the link in your browser address bar and press enter,
- if the download starts immediately, the link is correct
- if it shows a page with a download button, the link is wrong.
To correct the wrong link, right click on the download button and 'copy link', paste it in the address bar and try again.
EDIT: please be aware that a nice Guide by IceWolf has been posted on the Platform Homepage click to see it NAO!
