I recently have turned the techworld 2 pack and switched out all the mods to the the yogscast complete pack, when ever I try to launch it, it will error out saying that the "permsize option was removed".

FTB then crashes the loading.

From my research on this error,

Setting it wont work.

And there was a time FTB would ignore it.

Is there any fix that does not involve me taking a fire axe to my computer?
If any thing involves installing anything, it also wont work due to parental controls being an arse about instals without parental approval.

I'm using java 8_11, just not the latest version which they say isn't advised but whatever. In the thread below someone says to remove permsize from java 8 args.

This thread is helpful if you have a lot of RAM:
http://www.minecraftforum.net/forum...6-java-7-8-command-line-options-for-minecraft
"These options are designed for 64-bit machines with 8gb RAM or more. If you have 6gb, you can still use them, but you should change the -Xms value to 2G instead. People with less than 6gb of RAM should avoid this 'memory hungry' configuration, it can/will cause crashes and problems."

Java 8 does not support the -XX:MaxPermSize parameter but still crashes if it runs out. As such, until an equivalent java 8 option is found, java 7 is necessary if you get perm gen related crashes.
