Kryeiszkhazek Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I used to have the technic launcher on an old computer with no problems and now am using a different computer Whenever I start the launcher it opens for a second, says "checking launcher version" then closes what am I doing wrong The old computer was running windows 7 64 bit, this computer is running XP 32 bit The regular minecraft launcher works fine, just not the technic pack launcher EDIT: I used the jar instead of the exe and now it works Quote
0 Kryeiszkhazek Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 from what I can tell it might be an issue with the fact that my root drive is the letter H and not C I don't know when or how this happened but I think the technic launcher may not be able to find java Quote
0 krazymonkey246 Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 try running as administrator. also, right click the icon, go to properties, and next to attributes you should see advanced. click that and un-check everything in it. hope that helps. Quote
0 krazymonkey246 Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 also, i found this: Problem: When using the launcher, It opens, says "Checking Launcher Version" And then shuts down. Spout does not open afterwards. Reason: Unknown. Solution: Go to AppData\Roaming\.techniclauncher and open the techniclauncher.jar file in java. It will open the launcher, and will let you play technic through spout. Quote
0 dylloop Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I tried opening the Jar with java but I cant find where java is located and which java to use i am using windows 7 and i have uninstalled and reinstalled java but nothing I found where it is but now idk which .exe to use please help me Quote
0 inittowinitall Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Try making sure your java has the same bits as your operating system. For example, if your operating system is 32 bits, your java should be 32 bits. If it is 64 bits, use 64 bit java, not 32 bit. This worked for me and it should help you. Quote
