a_slow_turtle Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 I have recently tried to make a custom modpack. It works when launching direct, but when I try downloading it fails, am I missing any folders or not? This is the URL For the pack: http://www.technicpack.net/api/modpack/angryoldnerd-blasty-modpack Please help, I am a giant noob since it is my first time ever.
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted March 24, 2014 Discord Moderator Posted March 24, 2014 You do not have a "binmodpack.jar". This is just the Forge universal binary download renamed to modpack.jar and the first/primary requirement for any modpack. You have an entire modpack archive in your "Flan" folder. It's 80 meg large which should be a big red flag for a weapons pack. You have some item conflicts, easily resolved.

a_slow_turtle Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) You make it Um do I need to add anything into it or just make a folder called: "Bin" without anything inside? Edit: I just made a bin folder. Still same problem just an error after download... Edited March 25, 2014 by a_slow_turtle
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted March 25, 2014 Discord Moderator Posted March 25, 2014 I have stated very clearly, as the first line item in my first response, how to get what you need for that.

I am not that good in english, I understood it as: Download forge then rename it to Modpack (Jar file) but where to add it when there is no bin?
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted March 25, 2014 Discord Moderator Posted March 25, 2014 Download Forge Universal for 1.6.4 here: http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.6.4-9.11.1.965/forge-1.6.4-9.11.1.965-universal.jar Rename that file to "modpack.jar". Place that file in the "bin" folder of your pack.

Place that file in the "bin" folder of your pack. I did that, but it is still an error, Not sure why again.
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted March 25, 2014 Discord Moderator Posted March 25, 2014 For some reason the Tubes mod is throwing an error. It starts by itself (well, with its dependencies) but not in your pack. Obviously there is a conflict (something related to @SidedProxy injection) with another mod or improper implementation on the part of the Tubes dev (more likely). Disabling this mod allows the pack to start.

Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted March 25, 2014 Discord Moderator Posted March 25, 2014 Your pack archive is in RAR format. All archives intended for use by the platform must be in ZIP format.
a_slow_turtle Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) Your pack archive is in RAR format. All archives intended for use by the platform must be in ZIP format. I swear if its all because of this I will break something... Wait you mean 7Zip? Edited March 25, 2014 by a_slow_turtle
a_slow_turtle Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 I swear if its all because of this I will break something... Wait you mean 7Zip? It worked... I just archived it into 7Z It crashed once on startup now works... I want to give you a hug... Thank you. I got a copy of Terraria laying around if you are intrested as a gift
Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted March 25, 2014 Discord Moderator Posted March 25, 2014 7Zip is a program capable of working with multiple different archive formats. It is important that you always select ZIP format (not 7z, rar, etc.) when making archives intended for use by the platform. Also, glad it's working for you!
