Mod Packs on Minecraft Launcher?

[Sebastian Treacy]

Hi all,
So I often find my self unable to access to the FTB Launcher due to networking issues. The Minecraft launcher still works though because it's port isn't blocked. So I can download the modpacks from the FTB launcher on some occasions but then go weeks on end unable to access the launcher and so am unable to play.

Is it a possibility to take the modpack files I downloaded and use them to mod the vanilla Minecraft launcher, making me able to use a modpack from FTB on the Minecraft Launcher.

The modpack I would like to use is the dire wolf 20 pack for 1.6.4. Any help would be great.
Thanks.

Yes, as long as you have the correct version of Forge installed to the vanilla launcher.

So I get the 1.6.4 version of Minecraft, make a duplicate, and mod that with the Forge universal file. Which files now go where to turn this into Direwolf's modpack?

 

[Ashzification]

Mods go in mods folder. Configs go in config folder.

I've done all this, but the game seems to crash when I use it. I click play, the game loads as usual until it gets to the 'Mojang' screen where it freezes for while before automatically closing.

Post a log to pastebin then link it here.

Can't Use Pastebin, but here is a clip of the log just before Minecraft closes:

Minecraft ran out of memory. The Wall of text, please do not post that way again use pastebin, does not show which bit your OS and Java are. If you have 64bit then increase the RAM allocated to about 3GB. If you have 32bit then you should read this.

 

[Ashzification]

When the pastebin button doesn't work for you, manually copy and paste.

If pastebin is overloaded at the time you're trying to use it, try again later.

 

[Sebastian Treacy]

Kk, sorry about the wall of text. As for RAM allocation I have no Idea how to do that. I use 64 bit Windows for my OS. Also, having a laptop with only 4GB of RAM, would allocation 3GB to Minecraft be a good idea?

Select profile in Minecraft Launcher and press "Edit profile" button. Find option (in bottom) "JVM Arguments", enable it and add to existed options in edit field string (with space from old content):
-XX:MaxPermSize=150m

 

[Sebastian Treacy]

Thanks, that worked great but the game lags loads more than normal FTB, any way I can optimise the settings?

I would not recommend doing that because you will starve your system. I would allocate 2.5gb max.

I would upgrade your ram to 8gb if you can then you can allocate up to 5gb and use the jvm arguments from the thread below.

Thank you all very much for your help. Upgrading my RAM would be expensive but i'll certainly consider it. Being able to play the game again is great, despite lag. Thanks.

You are welcome.

@Ashzification
Seeing as this has been resolved please close the thread.
