I have a few issues, first is I have the server up and running but don't know how to enable mods that are disabled in ftb unleashed like enchanting plus and the biomes a plenty mods. The other issue is my computer is decent, I don't know how to get specs on it so if you want those please tell me how to get them but the server keeps giving the message "Can't keep up, is the server overloaded or did it timeout?" and in game the blocks have to be mined a few times before they break and numbers such as EU/t are updated every 5 seconds, as well as mobs from the time I swing my sword to the time they are hit is about 4 seconds. I have upgraded the server to 2 Gb of ram and it runs with about 85% mem free. It's just me and my friend, Can anyone answer these two question in a step by step tutorial. Thanks

Edit the files in the mods folder from blah.jar.disabled to blah.jar (or zip) to enable mods.

Edit the startup .bat file with the JVM arguments found in Eyamaz's thread up at the top of this forum. That said, for a modded 1.6.4 server, you may need to upgrade 4 GB of RAM on your server, though with just two people you might be able to manage with 2 GB.

As a note, IC2 isn't the most server-friendly mod; since there's only a couple of you on, it may be ok, but past that, if you want server efficient tech mods, consider using TE3.

ok I got the enable mods thing, have no clue what a start-up.bat file is or what a JVM argument is. And how do I access it?

Specifically, the ones under the Server spoiler.

When you download a FTB modpack server, it comes with a ServerStart.bat file. If you edit this file in Notepad (or your preferred text editor), you will see it says

java -flags -flags ... -flags -jar FTBServer-1.6.4-965.jar nogui
pause

Take the JVM arguments from the thread I linked and overwrite all the flags with those arguments, but make sure to save everything from the "-jar" to the end.

My god man you are a very generous man for assisting me. I can't thank you enough!!!

The other way to enable the mods is from the ftb launcher before hitting the launch button click the edit mod pack and you can se what's already enabled and disabled as that's how I do it and I found that out by playing around and just randomly playing around with the launcher but then again I'm not good at editing jar files

Worth noting this only effects the FTB client and not the server.

Hyper like I said I don't know anything about editing jar files so no need to shoot me down in a ball of fire?

Ok and a question to the OP about your computer what operating system are you running and if you go my computer and click system properties it should tell you

Your operating system r.a.m wether your running a 32 bit or 64 bit client the only thing I can think of if your lagging is the memory and graphic cards may need updating

apologies, didn't mean to seem like I was shooting you down . Just making sure it was clear that what you had said would only effect the client.

Server side still requires you to remove the .disabled from the end of mods file name you wish to activate (no jar editing required, just a file rename).
