How do you reset a modpack in the launcher?

[Recon]

I seem to have screwed up my Magic World modpack, and want to reset the whole thing to the default mods and settings. After that point I'll re-add the mods I want to add to it.

It would be nice if the FTB launcher allowed us to clone instances like MultiMC does. That way we can just leave the original alone and make a copy to alter. As it is now, when I try to restore it to the defaults, the game still crashes when trying to make a new world. How do you fix this?

To reset the modpack do the following:
Go to "options" and then prees "force update". Now go back to "Modpacks" and choose the modpack you want to reset. and press lanch.

Ahh thanks. I thought "force update" forced a reset for ALL the modpacks, since the button itself doesn't give any context as to what its forcing an update on. A bit confusing on the interface. Also it'd be nice if there was a way to remove individual mods from the list (as opposed to just disabling them).

Just open the folder where they are and delete them manually.

Sure. Just sayin' the UI should do that instead. Its dead easy to make a file delete button, but annoying to have to go into the mod folder yourself and mess around.

And this is why I import my game into MultiMC =)

I've started using multimc myself. Awesome program I'd never have known about if not for FTB
