Combining two FTB mods into one.

[Barumba]

H-hello...

I'm new here. I wanted to ask if there is a way to combine two mods together without any conflict.

I was hoping to mix the Brony pack with the Mindcrack pack. To be a pony in o-one and have the awesome amount of content in another.

I'm not a pony, but I discovered FTB, tried both packs and It interested me being able to fly AND be able to build. It did not feel like cheating. (Though when switching to Voxelfly, I notice when placing things or mining them out, there is a delay where they disappear for a bit....and then reappear. Or in some cases you try to mine it out, it stays there for a bit, then disappears into a item to pick up... Is that normal?)

I'm not sure, but I think you should be able to just edit either modpack and simply add mods from the other pack that you want.
Say you want some mods from Mindcrack in the Pony pack.
Go to "Edit Mod Pack" -> "Add mod" -> "FTB Folder" -> "Mindcrack Folder" -> "Minecraft" -> "Mods" then just pick your mods of choice.

Do mind that some mods may not be compatible with others and may cause the game to just not start, if that happens, enable the console to see what the problem is, or just disable mods one at a time to see which is causing the problem.

Also some mods go in the "JarMods" or "CoreMods" tabs, so be sure to check which go where before hand, as that may cause problems starting the game as well.

Hope that helps! ^^

T-thanks... I'll Just experiment and see what fits. Thank you so kindly. ^^

I hope there will be help to speed this up. It may take me a while to find out which works with what ^^; It would be nice to have a Brony + Mindcrack pack.

EDIT 1st: well... I tried, Forge alone causes the thing to crash and not load. Which means this needs to be done through professional help. I know this thread is already offtopic since this is not the help section, but where would I make requests for combining the content of both mods?

 

[arthahar]

not forget copy config files for added mods from original packs.

 

[Barumba]

There is not much p-point to it...

A Professional needs to find a way to combine these two. There seems to be conflict.

This is the log that came up regarding the error.

Some of the words are invisible so you may have to highlight them with your m-mouse...

To add to this...

The config files can't just be merged - I'm guessing that mixing them naively will cause item ID conflicts, among other things. You could go through and resolve them all manually, but it's not something I'd do in a weekend. I mean, ouch.

(I wonder if there's a way to automate that sort of thing. Hmm....)

 

[Barumba]

...U-um, Suggest about it?

Is that is what is happening in the error report?

All I did was do a test to see if Forge could work and I placed it in its respective folder. I-it did not work... that error log came up.

 

[Icarus White]

I don't know. Sorry, just blind speculation.

(On another note, if by some miracle and/or blood, sweat and tears you actually get this working, consider asking permission to set this up as a Third Party Modpack - I'm sure you'd have many happy customers. Although I don't know if some of those mod authors would grant you the permissions you want...)

 

[Barumba]

I-i-i'm so-sorry. I'm not sure what to do. I do not have any clue at all. I do not know any scripting expertise.

Some expert coder from either development team would have to find a way to mesh them together.

<=( I'm very sorry... I am to shy to ask either of the mod developers to mesh these together. It's fine I will just... Play either one...

 

[Icarus White]

Oh, I'm sure you could find someone to help you out, I'm just not the guy to ask.

I'm sorry, I just find the idea of ponies quarrying the landscape, running fusion plants, and slinging nukes at each other hilarious

That said, there is some implicit permission for private modpacks, although a lot of that is still up in the air... and obviously, if you want to spread it around, it's no longer private.

 

[Barumba]

Would you happen to know where I an better inquire help on this? I ma=may have to ask either one. But often Minecraftians...don't get heard, or be told its difficult.

I do too! I'd like to ride the train mod while being a Pegasus. Just let it run on its own, and fly above it as a Pegasus.

Well... I would like other people to enjoy being a flying speedster while having alot of content... But if it has to be private... I don't mind either.

 

[Lambert2191]

H-hello..

o-one

p-point

...U-um,

I-it did not work... that error log came up.

I-i-i'm

I ma=may

m-mouse...

Forgive me for going slightly off topic, but why do you write like this? Is it something to do with liking Ponies or...? I don't get why anyone would... I know people with actual real life stutters and the internet is a blessing as they can talk without stuttering... stuttering in your typing, while entirely pointless, seems to be kinda, in a way, insulting to people who actually have stutters.

 

[Barumba]

Its alright. I'm ...like this when I'm someplace n-new and unfamiliar with anyone. So I'm not... making fun of anyone. speaking to someone and typing it out wasnt any different for me based on how I feel...

Lambert, I wanted to ask if you know someplace or if there was a way to contact both Mod developers of the Brony pack and Mindcrack for a private modpack containing the content of both? Am I asking in the wrong area?

 

[Nekofy]

I've found a youtube video that might be of help.

I hope it helped, I'm going to try it myself now too.

 

[Inaeo]

You've exhumed an ancient thread. Thanks for trying, but please mind the date of post in the future.
