Posted October 18, 201312 yr Yes, I read the "read this or be banned" that I should use the installer and that would solve 80% of my problems. Unfortunately, I'm trying to make a technic mod pack and so I need the files that need to go unto the coremod folder and so need to do this manually. What I did: copied a vanilla 1.6.4 folder and called it a new name. Went into that folder, renamed the .jar and the .json to my folder name, opened up the .jar as a zip file, deleted the META-INF, copied the contents of the forge.jar file into it. Started minecraft, created a new profile pointing to my new folder and ran it. It ran without running forge (no forge mods, no forge setup). Went back into the .jar, deleted the META-INF that was included in the forge.jar and tried again with the same result. Do I need to haxor the .json file somehow? Does anyone know?
October 18, 201312 yr Author Okay, the good people at Technic have this covered. All I have to do is rename the forge jar to modpack.jar and put it in the bin folder of my modpack and I guess they do the rest themselves. So all I have to do is use the installer for my own minecraft folder.
October 18, 201312 yr I'd point you to the technic people, and ask them to include proper 1.6 support in their platform. Read the EAQ before posting! OR ELSE! This isn't building better software, its trying to grab a place in the commit list of a highly visible github project. www.forgeessentials.com Don't PM me, I don't check this account unless I have to.
