Iasumonecara Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 If i recall correctly there was a major change internally in forge between 7xx versions and 8xx versions. By and large, forge is backward compatible, but there are some mods that had issues before/after that switch. Is there a way to make your mods work on 871? Unfortunately, .789 is as high as I can go without learning to update the mod. It is looking for a new maintainer and is otherwise abandoned. I'm waiting for 1.7 before putting in requests with folks who update out of kindness. Believe me, I wish I could just run the top versions, but I can't. I've sacrificed some rather enjoyable mods by being trapped in this version. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaxter Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Great, with the new launcher build (290) my pack is broken again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amaxter Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Sorry to be unspecific, it works now. Somehow the universal jar got corrupted, so I got a new one and it solved the problem. Before it was refusing to start up blinking at 0% once downloaded and then just quit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4gotensparten Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Every time i try to play any mod pack my launcher turns upside-down. Im using a mac so I understand there are lots of bugs, but i love hexxit very much and i have a lot of tekkie servers. It would make my day if you could fine a way to fix this.

Amaxter Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Go full screen and it will be upright, unfortunately there's not many fixes to the upside down issue. You'll just have to make Minecrat full screen, and then it will be right side up. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightreaver Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 so, i created a modpack with only NEI... and started with launcher (without forge or modpack.jar inside the modpack) so just normal vanilla the i put the forge universal inside the bin folder (renamed it to modpack.jar) and the game failed to run. the version.json gets changes and thats all. to make i run again i have to remove the "modpack.jar" and the version.json... then it's running again but just vanilla (as expected). i tried copy stuff from forge universal installer to the .technic/cache/ folder (all libaryies are stored here) but still fails to launch i copied the library folder made by universal installer to my mod folder, and moved the jar and the version.json file also to bin folder, but still failed to launch so what to do? used forge 1.6.4 latest nice you are all talking about 1.6.2 modpack when topic/thread is about 1.6.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So put the forge universal in the bin in your modpack.zip, reinstall the pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmxfelon420 Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 WORKED! Yeah its kinda irritating that you cant test it in place like that, but not that bad. Im just used to the vanilla launcher where you can remove your libraries and stuff and it reinstalls them automatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doogle Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Fixed it. You have to download the forge universal jar for the version of forge that you want, rename it to modpack.jar, and put that into the bin folder in your modpack zip. Then it will install as intended into the launcher. Thanks for this tip, it worked perfectly for my new mod pack on 1.6.4, now I just need to fix my BoP crash :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SearGoron123 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 its 1.6.4, it will work on 1.6.2 but not 1.6.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beewyka819 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Dont put any version.json in your modpack.zip. All you need is the jar file. The launcher actually creates the json files itself. The ONLY folders you need are bin, config, mods. The content of the bin should ONLY be the modpack.jar, unless you're running something like pixelmon that has a database folder. Im going to put together my pixelmon pack to test that and verify how 1.6.2 works. You don't even want the minecraft.jar in the bin folder?
