Better than wolves download problem

Launcher Version: Technic 236

Operating System: Windows vista home premium

Java Version: 6

Antivirus Program: Malwarebytes

Description of Problem:

First of all i would like to state that im kinda a noob -___- okay so i play on a multiplayer server that my friend runs with about 7 or 8 other people. He just recently added the technic pack so we could play tekkit lite on the server. but the noobs (like me) hated it because of the advantages it gave to better players. so now hes trying to get the Better than Wolves for technic made by Trace 05. he downloaded it just fine through technic but i tried pasting it to the add mod and then hit launch and it loaded and said download failed. Then a window popped up that said something along the lines of "Error downloading Better than wolves please consult modpack author." It was a lot more than that but i dont remember. I, of course, restarted my computer and tried it like ten more times. i also reinstalled technic. If it possible please dumb the answers down because im an idiot compared to most when it comes to these kinds of things. thank you!

It sounds like who ever made the pack did so incorrectly. Do your friends have the same problem?

Please consult the modpack author

I have no words.

OP: If you can provide the url for the pack I'll see if I can figure out whats wrong for you.

there's the url. and yes my friend downloaded it through technic with no problems. He said it was probably bc i had vista which apparently is like the armpit of windows computers...

It IS the sweaty pit of Italian plumbers everywhere. Get Win 7, it's a far better version of Vista.

Update Java.. I was able to download the pack, and it installed, but does not work. Also I noticed there are no coremods in the pack (not sure if this one needs it). However the FML is not loading when minecraft starts, so the modpack.jar might not be right.
