Jacob_sword Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Ok, I want to run Technic on my USB. Is there any thing I have to do instead of just putting the launcher on the USB? Also the computers I play on don't have Minecraft will I need Minecraft data files on my USB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niavmai Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 All the launcher does is download the game. If you copy the .techniclauncher folder onto the USB, you can just run form the jar, but I recommend taking the launcher.exe as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkthegamer Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 That means you will be taking a copy of the modified minecraft data files with you by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob_sword Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Ok new question, I was playing at school installed java 7 and then it would load to the 2 mark and just crash. How do I fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErusPrime Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Ok new question, I was playing at school installed java 7 and then it would load to the 2 mark and just crash. How do I fix? That one's easy. Stop fucking around at school. It's an institution of academia. Appreciate it and use it. You'll stop hanging out with most of the people you know there. Your kids won't care if you were fucking cool. However, they will care if they have food and warm clothes. Focus on something math based and do some good in the world.

Valkon Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Ok new question, I was playing at school installed java 7 and then it would load to the 2 mark and just crash. How do I fix? By not wasting the time that has been reserved for education playing video games. There's a time for work and there's a time for play. All work and no play might make Jack a dull boy, but all play and no work makes him an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linkthegamer Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 At some schools they disable USB access, so you are luckily you can even access it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athazagoraphobia Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Ok new question, I was playing at school installed java 7 and then it would load to the 2 mark and just crash. How do I fix? I pay taxes, and instead I get Minecraft. Fine and dandy, but Technic Pack on a USB won't clean me when my bowels let go at the ripe age of 98. Stay in school. Don't drop out and become a Pokemon Trainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob_sword Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 ok, maybe I wasn't clear. I'm a teacher I want to use minecraft to teach my students. But before I go and buy accounts I have to get the game to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacob_sword Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 he he no, suck at that. I got lucky I teach computers and I wanted to show how raw data and other stuff works. And Minecraft can help with these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poiasdope Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Copy the entire /.techniclauncher/ folder into the USB and copy it to the %appdata% of the computer you wish to use. Then get offline (for it to always work) and open the launcher. Now play offline. G'luck teching (I misspeled that, but ok). Try not to blow their minds with this awesome blocky game (and RedPower 2). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But before I go and buy accounts I have to get the game to work. THIS is the type of stuff you make sure to mention beforehand. As far as we knew you were some 14 year old who wanted to play Minecraft instead of doing classwork. Also have you cleared this with your schools tech support team, those guys don't like teachers doing stuff to the computers behind their backs. Find out if they did anything funky to the computers (all my high schools computers had frozen hard drives(no changes saved after shutdown), locked USBs, and by the end where more or less turned into thin clients). And check out MinecraftEDU like ErusPrime recommended. They plan to provide lesson plan maps, over a server control system, and have official partnered with Mojang AB to offer discounted Minecraft accounts to academic institutions.

Jacob_sword Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Ya sorry about that, wasn't thinking. thanks for the link. But I'm having problems with Technic on the computers. It starts to load but the launcher never comes up. I would really like to know how to fix this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linkthegamer Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Most enterprise networks only use x86 architecture and from what I understand (I may be wrong) the exe doesn't work well on 32 bit. Most school networks are crippled as heck and only the admins know how to or have the power to do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErusPrime Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Most school networks are crippled as heck and only the admins know how to or have the power to do anything. yeah. If you want to actually use this to teach, you'll need to speak with the school about getting it to work as they'll most likely need to build an image and organizational unit for minecraft PC's. You should still have access to your user appdata folder though, you can type that same line in windows explorer to get there as well. unrelated: I've never worked somewhere that had a decent network. it's always a jumbled mess and all the network guys go "this works. don't touch it."

That is Network admins for you, got their MCSE (or whatever the heck the right one is) certification then turned cynical and tired (and maybe lazy) from dealing with "stupid" people. Stupid in quotes because it is in comparison to what they know. Also you can apply that to this forum with a few edits: That is Technic Pack admins for you, got their DONG certification then turned cynical and tired from dealing with stupid "people". People in quotes because I am not sure some of Kellers are even human. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilchard123 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Most school networks are crippled as heck and only the admins know how to or have the power to do anything. And half the people taking IT. Seriously, I got more out of trying to get things to work in my school network than I did actually doing the work. M$ 101 would have been better name for my classes.

Most starting technical classes are just how to use MS tools since they are the industry standard. occasionally you will get a class where they have you use Linux and most the people will have no idea what is going on. We should probably get back on topic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmegaJasam Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Most of the people /taking/ our 'Applied ICT' classes knew more then the teacher, and the network dudes had no clue (they obviously just managed to reserch enough to set up some pre-packaged solution and look like they know something. no actual ability required since the rest of the staff were more incpetent then the students.) This was a while back mind you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
