Can't successfully download the modpacks.

  • Tech Support section is for getting help with FTB related problems. If there's a repeatable issue that can be labeled as a bug, then please use the issue tracker for the pack or the app at GitHub issue trackers - If there's no repository for a pack that means that the pack is old and/or will not be updated. Bugs for older packs will not be fixed, unless they are critical.

Title:
Can't successfully download the modpacks.
Launcher Version:
Feed The Beast Launcher v1.4.12
Modpack:
Regrowth
Modpack Version:
1.7.10
Log Link:
Details of the issue:
Issue with new md5 method, attempting to use backup method.

It happens with every download. The FTB program then just freezes. I can't use any of the buttons like "Upload Log" or "Copy to Clipboard".

I have wiped all Java from my computer, installed version 64 (offline) and version 32.

I have deleted all FTB files, wiped it from appdata and reinstalled.

Am I missing something here?

Do you got any antivirus or firewall on that machine (not counting the built in)?

Hi,

Thanks for replying. No. I use Windows 10, so just use the security that is in-built.

I've been trying to toggle my windows firewall settings to see if it will work. But no luck yet.

I deleted FTB and reinstalled. Logged in and began to download 'Regrowth'. It starts to download, gets about 5 bits away from completion and hangs. Then the log says the below:

Downloading Mod Pak
Issue with new md5 method, attempting to use backup method.
Local: 23D27D209F41B03863C7FB8C14275025
Remote: 23D27D209F41B03863C7FB8C14275025
Mods Folder: C:\ftb\Regrowth\minecraft\mods
Dynamic Folder: C:\Users\William Park\Appdata\Local\ftblauncher\Modpacks\Regrowth\minecraft mods

When I click on any of the buttons, nothing responds. I can't get the log because FTB freezes

please, post a full log: In the launcher's options tab, check the boxes "Show Console" and "Reopen launcher when Minecraft exits". Then launch your pack again and when the crash/error/other problem occurs, click the "upload log" button in console window and give us the link.
