PBlock96 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 To install Liteloader: It's pretty much the same as the Forge installation method. Download the relevant version from here, and add the files from the downloaded zip into the modpack.jar. All done! There is a much easier way to do this, simply put the liteloader jar into the version folder in the mods folder. E.G. the pathway to the jarfile would be ~/modpack/mods/1.7.2/liteloader-1.7.2.jar.

IgnisPerpetua Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I've made my modpack and right now I'm having issues with the whole file uploading thing. Does copy.com work for uploading it? If yes, how can I upload the entire modpack folder? When I try and click open it just opens the next level of folders. If no, what websites would work that don't require a premium? I was going to use dropbox, but public sharing is a premium thing. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifegrasp180 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Thanks for posting this! I was actually hoping to make a modpack soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted April 22, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yes, copy.com works fine. Once you upload your modpack archive ZIP file you simply need to share it through their interface and add "?download=1" to the public link they provide. As for making the pack, you'll need an archive making program like 7zip. Just make sure that you make the archive in ZIP format and not 7z, rar, etc. Make a new folder somewhere on your hard drive and name it what you want to name your modpack. I will refer to this as MODPACK Make a folder called "bin" in MODPACK. Put "modpack.jar" into your newly created bin folder. Copy your entire config folder into MODPACK. If your config folder is empty then you have not successfully started/tested the pack and need to stop here until that is complete. Copy your entire mods folder into MODPACK. If you have extra folders (i.e. Flan, Chocolate, etc.) copy those into MODPACK. Select the contents of MODPACK, right-click and create a new ZIP archive. (should be an option in your shell extension dialog) Upload this ZIP archive to copy.com. Share the newly uploaded file. Copy the public link and add "?download=1" (without the quotes). This is your modpack's download URL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sketaful Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) There is a much easier way to do this, simply put the liteloader jar into the version folder in the mods folder. E.G. the pathway to the jarfile would be ~/modpack/mods/1.7.2/liteloader-1.7.2.jar. Is this for 1.7.x? In 1.6.4 I just put it straight in the mods folder and that seem to work just fine.

Lifegrasp180 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 My only problem is the fact that dropbox requires money to make a public folder (which is something i don't have.) I did try using copy.com but every time it said it had trouble downloading the file. is there any other webhosts i could use (or at least a way to fix my problems with copy.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted April 29, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted April 29, 2014 copy.com works fine for use as a modpack direct download URL. Simply put "?download=1" (without quotes) on the end of the public/shared URL they provide. If that doesn't work for you then you are not doing it correctly.

Lifegrasp180 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) Thanks man for the help I appreciate it EDIT: do i put this / at the end of the url then put ?download=1 Edited May 1, 2014 by Lifegrasp180 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imodz03 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hello I have followed your guide and my pack works however when it downloads it downloads vanilla. It also downloads all the mods, configs and the modpack.jar however it just puts them all inside a folder inside the modpack folder. Do you have any idea why this is?

It also downloads all the mods, configs and the modpack.jar however it just puts them all inside a folder inside the modpack folder. Do you have any idea why this is? Because your modpack archive ZIP file has all of the required folders inside a subfolder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sombre_Augure Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I am constantly reminding folks of this when they ask for help so I figured it might be good to remind new pack makers. The "modpack.jar" (especially when making 1.6.4 packs) is simply the Forge universal download renamed to "modpack.jar". There is no need to extract it and re-make it. Just rename the thing and put it in your "bin" folder. Exactly my mistake, thank you Also the link to the ID-conflict guide is broken just so you know I'm not finished but this guide helped me great deal so thank you Lukeb!

That may be due to the new forum software. It shouldn't be an issue for the guide since the link was only to give credit where credit was due and all the information is copied onto that post. I'm glad I could help, and welcome to the forums! (I see your 3 post count ) I hope you enjoy the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nub_Yuggernaut Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 in your guide you say to download another modpack that is the same version as the one you want to make and swap in the modpack.jar. unfortunately, I couldn't find any 1.7 modpacks (although I did find someone who made a 1.6.4 and labelled it as 1.7 lol). what do? many thanks, the nubbest of yugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted June 1, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted June 1, 2014 Nub: You might have success using my BareBonesPack as a starting point. Add this custom modpack: http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/details/barebonespack.271497 After adding that to your launcher simply edit the pack settings (small gear on the bottom left corner of the logo) and select the Forge version you wish to use. Launch the pack once and you will have a clean platform for developing your modpack. Nub_Yuggernaut 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swainEXE Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 ok im about ready to punch my computers screen. I tried everything you said and all that will appear is vanilla and everytime I try to change the link, it wont work. I have been working on this pack for a week (hence the name of the pack "Swain's Pain") and am at a loss. I just need help getting the pack to work. can someone just give me some sort of answer to help me out? is that too much to ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted June 29, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted June 29, 2014 @swainEXE: Someone in the thread you started asked for a link to your Technic pack page and/or platform API URL. This is going to be required for anyone to help you. Also, don't start multiple threads. Just continue the first one you started and respond to the people trying to help you.

TheShadbusher Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 For someone who has been searching for a solution to running LiteLoader and Forge together in a Technic modpack, I thank you for providing a simple and straightforward fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockbreath9 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Couldn't you use idfixminus or idfix when dealing with id conflicts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted August 26, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted August 26, 2014 @rockbreath9: While idfixminus can help you get started with the resolutions, it is my experience that you are better off in the long run just fixing them correctly. idfix I have seen major issues when dealing with large and complicated packs. Also, any time you want to have a server for a pack it is vital that you don't use an automated ID fixer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
