Chubop Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 Same thing happened here. I am on a Mac, and I figured out a way to go back to 1.0.5, but alas no difference. I feel this problem is due to the lack of testing on this new launcher. Honestly this is the most annoying thing, I just want to play Minecraft and this crap has to show up because this launcher was rushed. Quote
AprilElyse Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 well it was not a problem until recently , I had not had any issues with it until this recent update. Quote
roboton2000 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 April. To prevent fn + command + f11 to go to the desktop you need to find it in the settings/mission control, then find the show desktop section and change show desktop = f11 to show desktop = - . Your Welcome . Quote

MacKeeper28 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Is anyone having problems with forge not downloading lib files? Because mine isnt and when I put my lib files in the way they should be, tekkitmain played upside down. Quote
MacKeeper28 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 and for those of you wanting the old technic launcher, it doesn't have tekkitmain. Quote
Markarthian Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 This is very weird indeed, has anyone tried to completely reinstall java? (I suggest java 1.7 build 21) tomorrow java 7 will be supported by the launcher, updating java might solve the issue. Quote

Markarthian Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Updating Java does not in fact help I see... It seems to be a lwjgl bug. The devs (not the Technic crew) are working on a fix, there's a beta build that fixes the problem, but I don't know when it'll be added to the launcher. We'll have to wait a little. Quote
Dash16 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 If you've already been bit by this bug, the only fix I've found (until the technic team fixes the launcher) is to restore all of the folders and files inside ~/Library/Application Support/technic/tekkitmain/bin from a backup (hope you are running Time Machine) and then lock them so the launcher can't update them. Hope this helps, and happy Tekkit'ing! Quote
Dragosiankiller Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 What do you mean "restore"? what is time machine? Do you know when this will be fixed? Quote
Dash16 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Restore from backup. Time Machine is a backup system: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427 Quote
happysmash27 Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 What about for people on old macs???? They don't sopport java 7. And I cant afford a computer that new! And even if I manage to be a registered apple developer, some programs dont run on the new opperating system. Do I have to install a vertual linux machine???? Quote
AkaNinja101 Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 i had the same problem fullscreen helps but i downloaded syndicates minecraft project world and i copied it into tekkit and FTB yogcraft packs and I'm pretty sure this is the problem but all of my worlds have gone on both!! any suggestions would be appreciated as i worked so hard on these and some were used for youtube so if anyone knows how to get my worlds back (no i didn't back them up) PLEASE HELP! with my worlds and tekkie Quote
Seattleda Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 Dash16 - Thank you! I replaced the files in my Natives folder as well as the two lwjgl files in the Bin folder from the zip file you gave me and then locked them. TechnicLauncher crashed when I tried to launch into Tekkit. So I turned off my WiFi and tried again - it asked if I wanted to play in Offline mode. Saying yes took me right to the normal Mojang white screen and then into the game correctly! Quote
Dragosiankiller Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 I dont have time machine and my mac only has a total of 50 gb memory. Its called mac air, even though it isn't that light, but that is beside the point. The point is, when will this be fixed, or how can I fix without time machine? It seriously is annoying to have to get out of fullscreen every time I have to check something... Quote
Dragosiankiller Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 Is there a way of contacting people who work on the launcher? Quote
Dash16 Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 Is there a way of contacting people who work on the launcher? In theory, some of them hang out on these Forums, but don't expect a quick response. I'm looking into running Java 7 as my default JVM, if that works as an acceptable workaround I'll post instructions here. Sadly it won't work for 10.6 users as you need 10.7.3 or higher to use Java in Mac OS. Consider upgrading to 10.8, it's only $20. Edit: So, installing Java 7 seems to fix my issues. Note: Oracle's instructions for updating Java to 7 for the Mac are (bewilderingly) wrong. They seem to make the same incorrect conclusion about running Java 7 from the Internet Plug-Ins directory, vs. having a full Java VM that the OS uses to run java apps outside of a browser. In any case, download the Java 7 JDK from here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html After installing the JDK, open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app and type: java -version It should return the following: java version "1.7.0_21" Java SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_21-b12) Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.21-b01, mixed mode) If it shows 1.6, you still have Java 6 as the default VM, and might need some additional terminal trickery to get it working. Should you run into problems after installing the JDK check here: http://www.mattgifford.co.uk/set-java-7-as-default-jvm-on-mac-osx-mountain-lion Installing Java 7 on my machine fixed the lagginess introduced by the latest TechnicLauncher.jar update. I suspect, but am not sure, that the issue with the screen flipping/mirroring in window mode will also be addressed. Please post your results if so. Quote

iamthepiguy Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 CanVox mentioned here: http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/upside-down.45469/ that it is LWJGL's fault, and they have a beta fix. I would love to see it! Quote
WeaselTekkit Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 A new fix?! Great! Finally the problem is hopefully fixed. Quote
Dash16 Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 LWJGL was reverted to an older version so a fix should be live (if not the fix that will resolve the issue for newer versions). Olloth rolled it back: http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/mac-users-important-fix-hello-crash-problem.35023/page-8#post-376994 Quote
Jow Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 I have to same issue but full screening doesn't work for me, are there any advances on a solution? Quote
Ysharma Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 F11 wasn't working for me. I found another fix. Select full screen on from inside mine crafts video settings menu Quote
