update failed?!

[mikead99]

when i start voltz for the first time it says 'update failed' why? can anyone help me?

[mikead99]

this also happened with everything else i didn't have installed

[Sylph2]

have the same problem

[mikead99]

I figured out the problem, to fix select manual build selection and pick the bottom one, after that has updated, update it to the most recent version.(after stopping the game)

[mikead99]

If that doesn't work contact the experts( the guys who made the mod)

Another way to do it (if you are willing to lose a lot of data from your modpacks) is delete the entire .techniclauncher file and reboot the launcher (simply by clicking login after having deleted folder). This is located in %appdata% roaming folder, usually under the .minecraft folder. This is what I did because only Tekkit was updating and the others were not.

If you have world saves that you wish to keep, just copy/cut the "saves" folders and put them somewhere else. Then, after deleting the .techniclauncher folder and rebooting the launcher, put the saves back in.

I hope this helps. It is the most surefire way I know to get it working again. It might be more work than other methods, wth dragging files you want to keep around, but it should work well. Thanks!

Just go to Manual Build Selection. And pick the oldest one, and update when it says "There is a New Update for Voltz" this works with Technic SSP aswell.

[Lachie20001]

Will Technic Pack makers fix this bug and when will the update come out?

[HellBoundHades]

Have had problems have even deleted the whole launcher from my system and still it wont update past the very first build! so will stick with Tekkit

[Rongmario]

Guys just follow what I said. Works perfectly.

Go to options and click "Clear Cache."

It worked for me.

Thx! it helped me alot!

[Nagthrod]

I have tried all of these and i still doesnt work, any advice?

[hw_cubs_2012]

What i did was 1)set the memory to 16 gb 2)cleared the cache and it worked

[MidnightRunner]

Another option which worked for me was, in the options, select development builds instead of recommended. This fixes a lot of issues I've found. Also make sure you're allocating enough memory.

i basically cant do shit with my launcher.

I try to launch Voltz, got the "minecraft and FLM fatal error blablabla" problem, then i try every solution here, but the one that seems to work the most (the above one) just wont work cauz it wont update.

Yep, thats right, i just dont have any control at all over my launcher.

EDIT: Ok, i managed to update like you guys said, but still got that f**king fatal error message.

Its like the launcher cant access the files/folders it needs to updates. Well, looks like that for me anyway.

How do you set your allocated memory to 16 gb? Mine only allows me to go up to 1.56 GB

jimmithesith, maybe if nothing works for you, you should try to contact somebody who made the launcher or someone who is really knowledgable on the subject, like direwolf20, the creator of the FTB modpack.

I know a solution that works for every modpack and version.

1. Clear cache

2. Go to C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\.techniclauncher\cache

3. Download the right VANILLA minecraft.jar(tekkit needs 1.2.5, the latest voltz needs 1.4.7)

4. Rename that jar to "minecraft_1.2.5.jar" or "minecraft_1.4.7.jar"

5. Put it in that cache file shown in step 2

6. Run the launcher and play

NOTE: Dont click clear cache again or it may be ruined again.
