Factions for Tekkit 3.1.2??

[jalessi04]

Hey everybody,

I have been trying to get factions running on my tekkit server for quite some time. I have tried all recent versions of the plugin, but to no avail. I read somewhere that I am supposed to use the beta 1.7.5 release, but when I do I an error saying that the "plugin.yml" is invalid. Can someone please help me?

[SeargentGen]

Use this version. It is working great for me; no errors at all. If it still doesn't work, can you post a copy of the log where the errors occurred?

[jalessi04]

Nope, it's still not working. Here's the bug report:

Hmm.

If you posted your entire log, would I find you were in Offline Mode?

[Scoapimp]

^Probably.

I Use the 1.7.5 Beta And It works Just Fine.

[jalessi04]

I don't believe so; the log doesn't say anything of that sort.

Edit: I just checked; its set to "online-mode" = "true".

[The_DarthMoogle]

Damn, that's the only place I've seen this error. Sorry.

[jalessi04]

Maybe i'm doing something wrong; when I download Factions 1.7.5 beta I get a .zip file instead of a .jar. Is there anything else I need to do with the file before I can install it?

[EnergySipher323]

I have this same problem

[Scoapimp]

Ah. the Zip folder problem. I had the same issue.

What i did to solve it is, as it's opening all the things from the Zip, Hit cancel once you see the Factions.jar.

Hey people, I'm running Tekkit lite version 0.5.7 and this server is running BukkitForge version git-Bukkit-1.4.5-R1.0-b3000jnks (Really: BukkitForge for MC 1.4.7) (ImplementingAPI version 1.4.7-R0.1)

I just downloaded Factionsv1.6.9.4 and this pops up. Really need you help, thank you

Scoapimp, thanks so much; stopping the unarchive at the right time was a little tricky but it worked.
