rangersilver6 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 I am new here, so I don't know if this has been asked. But I was wondering if the tekkit launcher is compatible with spout. I have just started a new server that uses spout quite a lot, but I would like to use tekkit. Are they compatible, and if yes, how?

The new Launcher is actually spout based (based on the spoutcraft launcher I believe). But I don't know if it is compatible.
maniacmusic Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 The LAUNCHER (the thing that downloads the content) is a fork of Spoutcraft. There it ends. Tekkit does not work with Spout and from what I've been reading it won't be possible either. I see tekkit as a cross solution anyway combining the "dirty" modding of modloader with a custom client to download the files, until Spout releases and reached it's full capabilities that makes mods like IC or buildcraft possible.
Pilchard123 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 You could possibly mash a few things together. I'll have a look this evening and report back. Maybe.

You can't for the simple reason that the "Tekkit client" is a modified vanilla client. It's not Spoutcraft. You can try but nothing that requires Spoutcraft to be used will work - it's common sense. Of course there are some plugins just using the SpoutPlugin API without requiring Spoutcraft. You can use these plugins ;)

Pilchard123 Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 And spout is a server-side Bukkit plugin, much like CommandBook or Essentials. It may not play nice with Tekkit, but I think the problem will come when using Spoutcraft with the Tekkit client.
rangersilver6 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Posted March 16, 2012 Thanks for your help everyone, I guess I will just have to run two servers interchangably.
gigafunk Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 SPout plugin does not work. Use search and read the thread I made a while back on it for all i know about it, which isnt much.
maniacmusic Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 SpoutPlugin DOES work. Like mentioned above there are plugins requiring the Spout libary, that don't require Spoutcraft. These plugins will work.
Rooster Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 SpoutPlugin works? Last time I tried letting it exist with Tekkit, SpoutPlugin crashed my client when I tried to place an IC2 machine (one of the ID 250 ones specifically, any of them).
agelian Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Spout plugins do NOT work with technic, tekkit or yogbox atm. We use spoutcraft's launcher, not the spout client itself. Technically the spout client could be added to our launcher but there too many issues with keeping it up-to-date with spout's launcher. If you were to manually put spouts client in one of the modpack folder it should work.. but thats totally unsupported.

Not all SpoutPlugin required plugins depend on Spoutcraft. Some of them just use the libary and they will work fine. A example is this plugin by a player of my server: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/hidenames/ You need SpoutPlugin to hide the names but Spoutcraft is optional to see the player skins.

You know agelian is an admin right? In fact the admin that works with the launcher. I would avoid insults.

linkthegamer Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 I wasn't insulting at all. Just correcting him. Sorry, just didn't know if a sarcastic "great job" was the best way to do so.
gigafunk Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 All spout plugins DO require the spout server side plugin though. When this was on my server in the 1.1.4 version it broke industrialcraft, I tried several versions to no avail. Have you actually had the spout server side plugin activbe with no errors in the log and everything working? With what version tekkit and what version spout serverside plugins. Please provide information or STFU.

Please provide information or STFU. I did. With latest Tekkit and recommended SpoutPlugin And it worked fine.
rangersilver6 Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 Thanks guys. I had seen other threads on the subject, but they either didn't provide a clear answer or I didn't understand it. I am just going with it doesn't work unless proven otherwise.
Ray Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 I tryed installing spout on my tekkit server and the only problem i have had so far is that when i break a dirt block with any moded tools it doesnt break the dirt block
