.. i hate that mod already.

I will also be disabling EE as it's rather OP compared to other tekkit mods.

To find the Minecraft/Tech folder you have to do a search for: %appdata%
Then you should find a folder called "Roaming" -
next folder you enter is ".techniclauncher" -
and then head in to the folder called "tekkit" -
and last in to the folder called "mods" and thats where you place the Forestry mod(and dont forget the next step mentioned below, of renaming the Forestry mod file.)

Glilya wrote:Alright guys, you need to add a "z" in front of the forestry mod file name after you've put it in the folder. This is to ensure it loads after the ic2 stuff.

Did you follow those steps Sullee?

But I put so much effort into my town!
Stop making new maps when we get good stuff going.

The reason you have to add a jar file for forestry is because it isn't just a plugin, it's an actual mod that adds new blocks and mechanics to the game.

Also, I really want to add the zeppelin/ships mod for a mobile airship base too Kavalis but sadly it isn't SMP yet. When it is it'll probably be added to the base Tekkit pack anyway since it's already in the Technic SSP pack.

Someone explain some things to me so I can get this working.
1. How can it be that my computer has no files/programs in it titled 'mine craft', but I can still run the game. Searching for %appdata% reveals that there is no such thing on my hard drive.
2. How does this tekkit thing work? I've been doing things like a moron with a malfunctioning brain but if someone'd give me a bit of information I might see where this is going wrong. Is Technic a collection of mod-packs, Tekkit being one of those?

Also, can you play mine craft by -just- downloading the Technic launcher and launching it? Or is it a requirement that mine craft is already installed on the computer?

Alright I have a forestry mod for you, called a flint and steel! Death to all trees!

Spoiler:

After uprooting half of my HD I found the folder I'm supposed to dump the bloody add-on into. But it still gives the error. The file initially was a .cpgz (or something..) But I changed it to .zip as that works 99% of the time.
Do I have the wrong version? The fuck.

I'm beginning to think mods are just suck-ass.

yeah mines in there and not working either

Hey there guys! I just wanted to stop by and let you lot know that we are streaming the creation of an adventure map. We will be taking ideas from our followers etc. Eventually we will be sending it off to yogscast to see if they will play it!

So if you want to get involved come join us at >> http://www.twitch.tv/sullivan1599

Hello there!

I would sincerely like to ask for your help, anyone who might know how to help me with my problem.

I was playing Minecraft in Single player mode recently and I have encoutered Blue Screen of Death, after the restart, I have opened Minecraft in order to continue my work but then I encountered a problem; the map is missing, it's completly gone from the in-game menu. I opened the minecraft application date and I found that the map is still among the saves, I just can't see it in-game for some reason. I quickly google'd the problem and I came to this tutorial that can solve the problem. However, the thing is I have no clue what the tutorial says since I'm relatively new to the Minecraft. If there is anyone experienced with this matter, I would really like to ask for help in restoring my precious world back to life!

Link to turtorial: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/47839-tutorial-how-to-restore-missing-world-after-system-crash/

Edit: Nvm, got it working..

Did you put the file in te tekkit mod file or the minecraft one? I put mine in the minecraft origionly and it failed until i put it in the tekkit one. I left mine as a Jar and it worked fine. Rembember to rename it and put a z at the front and to change your tekkit option to reccomended build rather than developers.

Gil, I will have a look at that link later and get back to you, but i am no geek sadly See what I can do anyway. The best answer is to join us Gil!

That would be great, Lexgrad. Thanks for the good will and trying at least! I would really like to see my map back if it's possible since I was building Deeprun Tram when it crashed. As for joining, I would really love to however I do not own original copy of Minecraft - I don't have premium account so I cannot play online but I must say that I'm very close to buying it!

Well.... That is alot of scary looking test, but i you read it you should beable to muddle through. However!!!!! it says it works on alpha and that was along time ago. Have you tried the back up file?

I have tried renaming the files like shown in the turtorial. Don't know which files you exactly meant with backup. As for the tutorial, looks well detailed and so, but the thing Is I don't understand this part of the tutorial:

[*:3rz1ijbd]replace the level.dat file in your world folder with the level.dat file attached to the post.
[*:3rz1ijbd]Open it up in NBTedit.
[*:3rz1ijbd]You should see something similar to the following:
[*:3rz1ijbd]root: 1 entry
[*:3rz1ijbd]Data: 9 entries
[*:3rz1ijbd]SnowCovered: 0
[*:3rz1ijbd]SpawnX: 0
[*:3rz1ijbd]SpawnY: 64
[*:3rz1ijbd]SpawnZ: 0
[*:3rz1ijbd]LastPlayed: 0
[*:3rz1ijbd]RandomSeed: 0
[*:3rz1ijbd]SizeOnDisk: 0
[*:3rz1ijbd]Time: 6000
[*:3rz1ijbd]Player: 1 entry
[*:3rz1ijbd]Score: 0

I'm not really familiar with what NBTedit is and as for that file attached to post, it says the folllowing: "NOTE: I was unable to attach the file, so you will need to manually create it using NBTedit and the data below." So if you Lexgrad or anyone else could explain me what this is about, I would be very grateful.

Server down? :<

I just bought Minecraft premium but now I would need someone to guide me in order to connect to this DefiasRP server? Any volunteers?

Then you need the forestry one.... which is really annoying, "This one isn't just a plugin though, you will all need to download http://bit.ly/KxDh4X and place the .jar in your Tekkit/mods folder.

oh and you need to message Ketty your MC name to get whitelisted. The IP address is somewere in this lot. IP is 178.239.166.215:25569

In relation to certain interpersonal issues, I've decided to work on a new project elsewhere. Domovoi is also on the project. It'll be grand!

A NEW city? Goddamnit. Still, i'll help out, obviously!

Editted as requested. I am not one to nag.

Moo.

Sullee, I'm not sure what's up with the creative built pirate city next to the free farm, but I deleted all but one of the world anchors next to it. You only need one and too many can be bad for the server.

Wasn't that the pirate coven that Greybridge had so valiantly destroyed?

It wasn't my intention to screw the server up.. I just wasn't sure. I deleted the last one and put my farm on inactive either way; I farmed plenty of wood as is.

Was wondering If I could get a whitelist on the account (Statiix). Havn't really rp'd on WoW in ages since I just don't find it as fun as other aspects of the game. Though RP on minecraft is awesome =p
