Cats1337 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I'm trying to create a modpack for me and my friends to use, it's a modified version of the 1.12.2 pack, but I can't get any of the mods to load, and I'm not sure why. I've reinstalled forge, and tried clearing excess items but to no avail.Link to modpack Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaariAtmc Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I hope you are aware that your free mediafire link has already broken. You zipped your modpack incorrectly, directly zip the bin/config/mods/resources folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the a folder containing the bin,config,mods,resources folders that is zipped. Am I supposed to zip something other than that? Edit: How is my mediafire link broken? what should I use instead?

Yes, you have those zipped, however, your situation is that you zipped it like this: Zip > modpack > bin/config/mods/resources. You need to directly zip those folders, aka: Zip > bin/config/mods/resources. For the modpack host, either selfhost it, use paid mediafire, or use free dropbox.

Cats1337 Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) I tried selecting the files, and compressing them and it still does not load.  Updated download to dropbox  Edit: Do you have discord or something that you could assist me on?

Add me: @C̷̶̷a̷̶̷t̷̶̷s̷̶̷#1337 Again, you didn't zip the folders in the correct way. Select the bin/config/mods folders -> Add to archive. That's the correct way of zipping.

Cats1337 Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 I'm using Mac. I select the four folders and click compress. Then I'm given a file called Archive.zip, is that not right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That folder shouldn't be there. I should open your zip and immediately see the bin/config/mods folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how do I make it so that the 4 just get zipped together so it's not 1 file > 4 files? Edited February 28, 2020 by Cats1337 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
