  1. [00:22:04 INFO]: Launching in C:\Users\AgustÃn\Documents\Curse\Minecraft\Instances\FTB Retro SSP
  2. [00:22:04 ERROR]: Aborting launch; couldn't create game directory
It for some reason failed to create a needed directory by the looks of it.
My guesses are incorrect permission or perhaps that special à but I kind of doubt that.

its folder permission not firewall permission.
To be honest, I am not certain if permissions are the problem as you as user should already have permission to write files to that folder. Thus curse should as well unless you are not running it as AgustÃn

I really doubt the "Ã" character is breaking it as it has refereed to that path a couple of times already and if I remember correctly where curse installs itself the installer already had to deal with that character when you installed curse.

I don't use curse nor windows thus I am not sure how to solve it.

Is there any other launcher I can use? if it's a problem with curse maybe using another one will work

EDIT: I dowloaded the old FTB launcher and tried to use it but it didnt let me click play.. this is the log http://paste.feed-the-beast.com/view/3c0c3ad8

I think i'm close to giving up... :/

EDIT2: The problem was caused by the character... it works in another user of my computer but i'm trying to make it work in my own user so i manually created the directory and the launcher worked!, but the game crashes right after it launches, here is the log http://paste.feed-the-beast.com/view/62e87eed
Anyone has any idea how to fix it?
