Modpack Fails to Unzip with Millenaire Installed

[Mc Gizmo]

I made a modpack the other day and now im trying to get Millenaire working with the Technic Launcher. When I Load the Millenaire Files into the /mods folder in my Dropbox, the Launcher downloads the Modpack, gets about 94% done unzipping, the says it Failed to Unzip Modpack; Please Consult the Mod Author. I Removed Millenaire from the modpack and it worked like a charm, but Millenaire is a mod that I Really want in the pack. Ive Zipped the Content Folders (That Failed), Ive Switched Millenaire5.1.3 to a .JAR format (That Also Failed), Ive Moved the Content Folders into the Root Directory of the Modpack Zip (Again, that Failed), I just cant figure this out. 7Zip Works and unzips it, But however the Launcher unzips its Modpacks dosnt agree with a file in Millenaire. Someone Help!

 

Link to my Modpack (Its a Hidden Modpack):

Try removing Millenaire, download the latest version of the mod from the author for your version of Forge/MC and re-add it to the pack. This happens all the time. Sometimes reinstalling Millenaire fixes things.

Yes, Removing Millenaire does allow the Modpack to unzip properly, But as far a Google can say, Im Using the Newest Release for the Modpacks Minecraft Version. I did Re-Install Millenaire with no luck. If you can find a Newer 1.5.2 Version of the Mod, Besides Millenaire 5.1.3, then please link me to it. 5.1.3 is the Newest Googe, The Millenaire Website, and The Minecraft Forums say.

Hello,

 

I have exactly the same problem as you. 

The problem is the two folders that are necessarily installed in the mod directory (millenaire and millenaire-custom), technic launcher don't like them.

In my case, i've also a ressource directory from ruins mod, and it's exactly the same problem.

If you find a solution, I'm interested. 

And if I find it, I'll help too. 

 

PS: Sorry for my English, I do for my best

• Your ZIP archive is broken and won't even extract manually using WinZip 14. The file that is causing the error is "aether_1.5.2_1.0.jar". Try re-creating the ZIP archive.
• You should not be including the minecraft.jar file in your modpack.jar file (in the bin folder). It should be removed.
• Without Aether mod for 1.5.2 (since I can't seem to easily find a download for it) and with Millenaire v5.0.1 included in a new ZIP archive (which I used to replace your broken ZIP) the pack launches successfully.

On another note, what was your thought process for deciding to create a 1.5.2 pack. There are at least 1.6.4 versions of all of your included mods and most of of them have 1.7.2 or even 1.7.10 versions.

Ok, an old tutorial i saw said to put the minecraft.jar and modpack.jar in bin. Also, i know there are newer versions of basicly every mod, and i am considering to update. I'll Remove the aether and and use 5.0.1 of Millenaire. Thanks!

 

Also, love the Simpsons Reference on your picture.

Also, the reason its difficult to find the Aether is because the Aether Team Removed the download to it to make it compatible with Mojangs EULA.txt

Also, it was Either the Aether 1.5.2 or Aether b1.7.3

Technic isnt compatible with b1.7.3

Aether II for 1.6.4 (latest) is here: http://www.aetherii.com/downloads

[Mc Gizmo]

well, i stand corrected on saying they removed the download.

[Mc Gizmo]

Ok, im confused. I have Millenaire 5.0.1, removed the aether, and removed the minecraft.jar

Im still haveing failure to unzip.

Can you get me a copy of the ZIP you got to work?
