Well, you can still go to http://files.minecraftforge.net/fmllibs/ and then find and download them manually.

you can't.

they are not in the listing.

[SXScarecrow]

You can, they are incorrectly marked as .stash files but they are still there.

A few people have been asking about this, so I thought I'd do a basic, step by step tutorial on how to build a server for you custom modpack. To make it even easier, I have done the tricky stuff for you!

Not that I don't trust random applications from the internet or anything, but....

Would you mind describing the process you use to create these?

I'm a much more DIY person and I like to know how things work behind the scenes. Starting from scratch I'm getting stuck at Forge for 1.6 because their website says using their installer is a requirement and I can't distribute the server jar legally.

[Googz]

Use MCPC+ for pluggins and pastebin.com your code.

Thank you, figured it out so all working well. Cheers.

What happens if you have mods in your modpack.jar? Like optifine?

[TwoTails]

What happens if you have mods in your modpack.jar? Like optifine?

pre 1.6: the game loads with all of the mods in the jar, mods folder and coremods folder.

post 1.6: game crashes for modding the jar.

[SamPhoenix]

Hey, i have no idea what mods i need to take out, if its not too much hassle, could someone download this zip folder of my mods (Hosted by dropbox) and either tell me what i need to change or change it and PM me with a fixed folder. This would be greatly appreciated.

[expodingpenguin]

Hi! i just tried this after failing miserably on my own, and this worked great! but is there any chance you can make it work with the latest version of forge? I would love to be able to use this with my server!

[Der Artz]

I think everythings working but....

The server station never shows up when I push minecraft server. jar...

Help?

[Valtrino]

Which of these must be removed? Thanks in advance

From my understanding Mapwriter (zans minimap) needs to be removed. what else?

Im running 1.6.4 So this is my MODS folder

(If there are any other problems are spotted and/or suggestion plz inform me. [my first modpack])

[Der Artz]

Can anyone help me (when you're done with Valtrino of course) with making a mod pack server using the "minipack" launcher:

http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/details/the-minipack.222373

I think I got it right up till i ran the game and it started to reset chunks... I have a mac btw, which basically is a guarantee no one will be able to help....

[SXScarecrow]

@Valtrino You need to remove Optifine and MapWriter. I'm not entirely sure about the Animated Player mods tho.

@Der Artz What's the problem? The minipack only has three mods in it; any issues would generally be attributed to those mods.

[Valtrino]

Ok let me give that a try

*edit: Well..it started..did a few things with library then dissapeared lol. no logs or anything was created except a library folder

[Stone Rhino]

Getting a rather bizarre error.

http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/server-unable-to-start.55416/

[Der Artz]

Ah, yes, the server seems to want to reset chunks... often... and I don't know if it's the mods or the way i set up the server that's rolling the chunks back...

[MercifulGoliath]

I'm not sure why no one else seems to be having this MASSIVE problem besides me. But when I go to download any of the base server files, I get the two launch files, and the server file itself is a zip file with what looks like minecraft.jar inside it instead of an executable file. Am I being an idiot or is there something very wrong going on cause I can't even get started without the program that runs my server...

EDIT: Also, i'm not sure if the launch.bat is working at all. I have to spam the shit out of the thing for it to even start, and then it just stops. And the window disappears so quickly I can't even see the error.

EDIT: I realized I was just running the server file incorrectly, which was kinda stupid of me to be honest, but now when I try running it, nothing happens. It begins to load for a few seconds then poof, it just stops.

[Valtrino]

well..seeing as there is a library problem. IF anyone would be kind enough.

I could send you my mod pack and could you copy your necessary files and get my server folder running for me ?

[MasterHill]

As to you MercifulGoliath, I am having a similar issue. After downloading the base server files for 1.6.4 and extracting them as instructed, I tried to run the server by using the launch.bat file. When I start the application, the console appears, disappears, and gives me an error report in the server folder. Here is the error report, if it tells you anything more.

I get the error about libraries or something, I have screenshots from video clip I made because it pops up and dissapears within 2 seconds

Yes I did tried downloading the libraries, didn't help at all.

[Der Artz]

You gota put them in the correct places as well, just keep opening folders under library until you find one that matches the wording, then the version, and under that it will have no .jar file, put the respective .jar in and voala! My server was missing 4 files... three of which were found on the same site, the last, the jolt-simple:4.5 i found elsewhere...

Why did it work before and now suddenly it doesn't?

[Der Artz]

Idk.... I heard somewhere that mojang had removed something like this to keep people from hacking the game and what not... Too many people not paying for minecraft so now those who customize can't get the files as easily.... Still possible, just more difficult....

Mods are what keeps this game alive. Without them Minecraft would die long ago.

He was referring to pirating hacking not...hacking moding
