Windows .exe Attempting to add dinosaurs

[wantdino]

Hi. I'm attempting to add the Fossils and Archeology mod to the FTB Ultimate Pack. I've done my best, but I can't figure out why it's not working. I don't think it's an ID clash because I've gone through the IDs required by the mod and they appear to be free. It's the only mod I've attempted to add, and the Ultimate Pack runs fine without it.

I added the mod to the pack using the launcher. It's in "Mods", not "JarMods" or "CoreMods".

The above is everything I did that produced this crash report. I then tried a few things to see if I could figure it out. Launching the game didn't produce a config file for Fossils and Archeology, so I installed the mod on vanilla 1.4.7. It worked and produced a config file, which I compared to an ID dump from NEI in FTB Ultimate. Every ID used by Fossils and Archeology seemed to be unused in FTB Ultimate. Attempting to launch FTB ultimate with Fossils and Archeology added and the config file pasted into the FTB Ultimate config folder caused the game to hang while loading, rather than crash, so I don't have a crash report for that.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.


Edit: Might as well add the config file from adding the mod to vanilla 1.4.7, just in case it helps: http://pastebin.com/fVqgxknX

Step one is update your Java.

Thanks. I was on Java 7 update 15, now I'm on update 17. This is on Windows 7, Minecraft 1.4.7 and FTB launcher version 1.2.3. The new crash reports follow:

I've puzzled over this and I'm stumped. Thanks for any help you can give.

The issue is right here:

cpw.mods.fml.common.LoaderException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: fossil.Fossil

From the mods thread page:
Image of what your folder structure should look like.
If you see: cpw.mods.fml.common.LoaderException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: fossil.Fossil
in your error message, double check your folders.

Wow. I can't believe it was that simple. I extracted the folders into the correct place and now it works. Thank you so much. I'm sorry for bothering you with this, but I'm pretty new to installing mods and couldn't figure it out. But now I've got something to use all these hi-tech tools for and to justify having a massive automated pork factory! Cheers.
