Minecraft not launching? Read this.

[ENDerrrDRAGON]

So you try to launch your favorite modpack from the technic launcher. It verifies all the files and does its thing when, suddenly the technic launcher just reappears as if minecraft had exited. Other modpacks work, but not this one. Heres why: the launcher creates log files everytime you launch the modpack. For some reason it can only get up to 100 log files (100 launches). Your solution: delete them.

 

1.Navigate to your technic installation. For windows Vista, 7, and 8 its default is:

C:Users<Your account>appdataroaming.technicmodpacks<the broken modpack>

(You may have to unhide your appdata folder)

An easier way to get to the appdata folder without unhiding it is to hold the windows key (usually between Alt and Ctrl) + R. When the "run" dialog opens, type in %APPDATA%.

 

2. Locate the log files. They are named:

ForgeModLoader-client-0.log.1 to ForgeModLoader-client-0.log.100

They will be accompanied by files of the same name but with a .lck extension.

 

3. Delete the files. Select all the log files as well as the .lck files, but do not delete any others.

 

 

This worked for me, but feedback, improvments, and suggestions are welcome.

Please reply if this helped you or if it didn't work. ANY feedback is appreciated.
