SimonPSeville Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 help please, ComputerCraft is not working, and i'm having problems explaining what the problem is, it's just the PC's and Turtles are not turning on, any ideas, please let me know, thank you in advance. Quote
weirleader Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 what version of Tekkit are you running? Can you access a turtle and show a screen shot? Or are you saying that right-clicking on a turtle does nothing? Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 When I go to right click on the computer or the turtle, for both I'm getting a black screen, and it's version 1.5.1. Quote
weirleader Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 1.5.1 isn't a Tekkit version -- but it probably means you're running 1.0.6 (the recommended build). Are you playing on your own server, single player, or another server? Some server owners will nerf Turtles because of griefing... (not sure about all ComputerCraft) Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 Oh I thought you meant the Minecraft version, okay, I am playing single player. Sorry, I'm new to this. Quote
weirleader Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 can you press F2 while you're trying to 'activate' a turtle our computer and then share your screenshot (using imgur.com or something similar)? Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 here, this is it. http://imgur.com/gallery/mPBKFZY/new sorry, copy and paste like, i don't know how to insert links here. Quote
weirleader Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 that doesn't look like a screenshot... Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 That's a link you click it I told you I wasn't good at inserting pictures. Quote
weirleader Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 this is what I mean by a screenshot: http://imgur.com/Ra6gjay did you hit F2 and then upload the image or did you take a picture with your phone? I can hardly see what's going on on that screen. Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 I'm sorry if it looks bad I did take the photo from my phone. Quote
Prototype958 Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 I don't want to be "that dick" but Tekkit is an advanced Minecraft, therefore a basic understanding of Minecraft is usually required... Did you put any programs on the Turtles? Do you have Wireless adapters on them and the PC in question? Have you written any code at all yet and it's just not running, or did you not realize that these aren't a "drop and go" block? Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 Uh I just installed tekkit, it was like that when I first opened it, I didn't even get to make any programs, and I don't use turtles. I play minecraft on creative mode. Quote
weirleader Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 Before we can figure any more out, you need to do the following: (1) Press F2 to take an in-game screenshot (2) you will find that image in c:/users/<yourname>/AppData/Roaming/.technic/tekkitmain/screenshots (often AppData is hidden on your system; you'll need to adjust settings so you can see it) (3) then post that image Once I have a better idea of the exact screen you're looking at I'll know if you're experiencing something out of the ordinary. Maybe then we'll be able to figure out what's up. Quote
weirleader Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 Ok, now I better understand your problem. It seems the OS is non-functional. From a Google of ComputerCraft not working or turning up an empty terminal it seems a few others have experienced this but I couldn't find specific solutions. However, one suggestion was that this is caused by an error during installation. So, perhaps you should go into '.technic/tekkitmain/mods' and delete ComputerCraft*.zip (there will be a version number where the * is but it's irrelevant for this). Then reload your game. It should do something along the lines of redownloading the necessary component and just maybe that'll nudge things in the right direction. Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 11, 2013 Author Posted August 11, 2013 uh, now it says there is no computercraft installed, and it did not redownload it Quote
weirleader Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 lol -- okay, I would back up the rest of the files, locate your world saves (possibly tekkitmain/saves) and be ready to copy those. Then delete the entire tekkitmain file and when you go to play it should reinstall everything. (which of course you have backed up for safety). then drop your saves back in. Sorry about that; apparently I'm better at fixing my own system than walking other people through it. Quote
CharlieChop Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 he could just reset the pack. that auto downloads everything. should work even better now that he actually deleted the mod. xD just click on the gear icon under the tekkit main selection screen on the technic launcher and click "reset pack" on the menu that pops. Save and restart tekkit. it should start downloading it right away. Quote
weirleader Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 thanks Charlie! I hadn't noticed that button. Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 16, 2013 Author Posted August 16, 2013 i've that to, it still doesn't work. Quote
weirleader Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 when you say it doesn't work, do you mean the computer still acts goofy or the mod won't download? Quote
SimonPSeville Posted August 16, 2013 Author Posted August 16, 2013 No it will redownload everything but the computer still do not work Quote
weirleader Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 have you tried a turtle also? does it do the same thing? Quote
