...are you seriously making a thread so that other people can provide support for those using solder?

[Isigiel]

Why not, it was hard for me, so I want to help others ...

How do I create a mod pack in Solder?

plokami666's guides on how to install and use solder don't say where to put modpack resources in solder and I can't figure it out myself.

EDIT: His guide on how to use says how to upload and configure mods for packs in solder, but not the packs themselves.

EDIT2: Also asked in plokami666's installation guide

LunarianEnclave: It sould be straightforward (or not)

-(Edited out the rest of the answer since I read the question "wrong")

Remember, you need to have created the " [modslug]/resources/ " path and uploaded the images with those proper names before you can hit Create Modpack.

PS: If you are working on a smaller screen/resolution the top line will "wrap" it self in

Hit the symbol at [1) -->] and the options should show up:)

You're post is entirely UNhelpful.

It only tells me how to make it in Technic Solder.

What I need to know is where to put the modpack resources.

I didn't say "how do I configure modpacks" I said "how do I configure the uploads for modpacks".

The word "uploads" should of told you that I was wanting to know where to upload the files.

Sorry if I came off irate and rude.

This post is intended to be blunt but with a polite tone of voice.

Hmm, you did ask "How do I create a mod pack in Solder?" So I did think you ment how to make it in Technic Solder.

Anyway, what you need is a FTP server then, so you can access your files:)

Heres a documentation that help me out, good luck:)

[LunarianEnclave]

I know how to upload via ftp.

I need to know where in my Technic Solder installation to upload the modpack resources to.

[Reggie88]

Alrighty then:)

it should be in "/var/www/public/mods/"

[LunarianEnclave]

As a matter of fact you do not just create the modpack slug directory there.

I tried that, didn't work.

[Reggie88]

If you followed plokami666's guide to the point, then the modpack slug should be after /public/mods/

/public/mods/[modslug]/resources/

 

and the individual mods should go in after /public/mods/mods/

/public/mods/mods/[individual-mods]/[modname-version].zip

[LunarianEnclave]

That's true for individual mods.

I just wish it was true for mod packs.

I put the resources files for my test mod pack in that exact spot, while ofcourse replacing "[modslug]" with the mod packs slug.

Did not work.

In solder you will see the option Modpacks

Go there, add modpack, ensure all the resources exist and hit create

Now you edit that modpack to add the mods from your mods list to the pack

I posted a reply to this back in my thread

[Amaxter]

I'm running Mac OS X and as such I can't really make a good database for solder. Any one know any good Ubuntu hosts?
