Custom Modpack downloads as vanilla

[Daedae1997]

This problem must come up many times a day. I recently decided to put together a small modpack but once i play it, none of the mods are there. It is basically vanilla. I am not sure what to do as i followed all the steps to make a modpack. The only thing the console is telling me is:

• You have named your modpack.jar as "modpacks.jar" (note the "s"). This should be "modpack.jar".
• You have the forge universal jar in your mods folder. This should be removed.
• You have not included any config files in your pack. Config files provide a way to resolve ID conflicts if you have them, but also provide a way to balance your mods with each other. Always include a complete config folder with contents in your pack.

I would recommend that you use something like my BareBonesPack ( http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/details/barebonespack.271497 ) to build your pack and then package everything up to complete your own pack. This will let you test your pack as you go and allow you to get your finalized config folder before publishing your pack.
