Vaygrim Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 If I plug another mod into the Tekkit Lite mods folder (provided it is compatible), will it work? Or will the Technic Launcher overwrite it / erase it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay? Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 You should get the New Launcher and use the custom zip feature. It's pretty swank, and will do exactly what you're looking for, plus give you the ability to share it with people you want to play with. But no, the launcher won't overwrite it.

Vaygrim Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 I actually have been having rather extensive arguements with the new launcher; it will not download the custom mod ZIP file I tell it to, no matter how hard I try. So I figured I would just try manually wedging things together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, deleting the folder for the pack the custom zip is for, and letting it redownload seems to work pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaygrim Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 I've been trying to figure out how to get Tekkit Lite and ExtraBiomesXL cooperate and play nice. It is not going well so far, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeb28 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Did you not just ask a similar question in another thread and get that same answer? I've been trying to figure out how to get Tekkit Lite and ExtraBiomesXL cooperate and play nice. It is not going well so far, however. As for this, some more details would help in finding the problem and fixing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leninparty Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I have gotten them working together, so more details would be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay? Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 You said you were trying to download a custom zip, yeah? Try asking the person who was uploading it. Also, more specific details, like crash logs, would be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaygrim Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 Following SCT's video I bundled together the contents of Tekkit Lite with ExtraBiomesXL. Put them into a zip file as he recommended and placed them in my dropbox "Public" folder. I get the public share link for this (also tried viewing the webpage for the file and getting the "Download Button" url link) and wound up the Technic Launcher. Picked "Custom Modpack 1" (the first slot) aand hit Options. In options I plugged in the URL from Dropbox on the "Custom ZIP" line, hit "Okay". Then started up that custom modpack. I saw a progress bar start up, checking for new versions of Minecraft. It then logged me in.. and started up Vanilla Minecraft. No mods installed, nothing. I never saw the progress bar actually download or install anything. No crashing (so I cannot post a crash log unfortunately). I'll tussle with it and see if I can figure it out, nevermind everyone.

Jay? Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Try deleting the folder for modpack1, there seems to be a thing right now where a previous non-custom version being loaded can override a new custom zip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leninparty Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 You will need to clear the cache after adding the custom zip url as well, otherwise the launcher assumes it is good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaygrim Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 I think the "Clear Cache" button is the thing I was searching for, it's making my setup testing a lot easier. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
