Modpacks will NOT Launch - Please Help - Need an Answer immediately


Question

Posted (edited)

 I downloaded the Technic Launcher for the first time in almost a year a couple of hours ago, and as I tried to launch (Decimation) the Launcher would proceed to load the Modpack, but as soon as ti reached "Installing Minecraft Assets" (something like that) it crashed, and it returned to the Launcher page, I've been trying to fix this problem for HOURS now, and nothing has worked. I am absolutely frustrated, and infuriated, could someone please fix this issue/give the solution?

(I tried using Java8_77 34 bit and 64 bit, although I don't have both downloaded right now)

(I can't even launch Vanilla Minecraft)

(Update: It was mentioned that Java_7 fixes the problem, it didn't fix it for me)

Please upload your launcher log to paste.ubuntu.com and provide us with the link. We cannot tell what your issue is with the information you provided.

 

Okay scratch that, I don't know if this is exactly what you need, but I pasted my logs here http://paste.ubuntu.com/15745623/

You need to ensure you have the correct, and most recent version of your video driver.

Could you walk me through how to resolve this issue so I can (finally) play modpacks?

Is this a laptop or a desktop? If you can provide the model number of the system I will see what I can find.

Supposedly you can downgrade your Java version to get this working:

Java 7

  1. Download and install: http://cdn.lemonmc.com/jre-7u80-windows-x64.exe
  2. Start up the launcher
  3. Launcher options -> Java settings -> Minecraft Java Version -> pick 1.7.0_80 64-Bit
  4. Attempt to launch a modpack.

Java 8

  1. Download and install: http://cdn.lemonmc.com/jre-8u25-windows-x64.exe
  2. Start up the launcher
  3. Launcher options -> Java settings -> Minecraft Java Version -> pick 1.8.0_25 64-Bit
  4. Attempt to launch a modpack.

DO NOT update Java 8 as versions past this one do not work.

 I tried using Java_7u80, but it didn't work, someone with the same problem somehow got their launcher to work, but here's my logs http://paste.ubuntu.com/15791466/ You can scroll all further down to see where I tried to launch Decimation, but it wouldn't, it just crashed at "Downloading Minecraft Assets"

The only think I can suggest is trying the Java 8u25 and see if that gets you any further.

I've made a breakthrough! I downgraded my Graphics Driver (I can specify if necessary) and I've now been able to get the actual game to almost launch (Meaning that the launcher actually manages to almost launch the game/ the actual minecraft window appears) but my new problem is that the game crashes at that point rather than the Launcher, here are my logs http://paste.ubuntu.com/15794217/ Scroll all the way down to see the current problem, you've been very, very helpful in alleviating this problem, and I would really like to put this issue to rest so I can finally play modpacks again, thank you.

It looks like the MC Heroes and Generals stuff doesn't like the version of Java you have. Try updating to the Java 8 version linked above.

Damn I was afraid you'd say that, I tried installing Java 8_U25 (The one you listed above) and I basically got a message saying that "This App can't run on your PC," you simply can't win in this life :(

I would recommend downloading the file again. You have 64bit Windows and the file should work just fine (I just tried it myself).

Dear God it worked! Thank you plowmanplow! -Good Karma Increased-
