Windows 7 64 bit
Java 6
FTB launcher 1.0.4
Minecraft 1.4.2


Just downloaded the launcher through the .exe this afternoon, loaded a seed and played for about half an hour, everything looked like it worked perfectly. Total noob question, but how do I launch it again? If i click on the regular minecraft icon, it brings back vanilla. When I was playing the icon for the program had the Java icon on it, don't know if that means anything. Do I go again through the FTB launcher? It'd be nice if there were a like a how-to for starting up the game. I try going through the launcher again and it's taking it's sweet time saying 'please wait while mods are being loaded', then I click launch, and nothing. I don't know what I'm doing, help please!

also, this is what the launcher console says thus far in my efforts

(for some reason the console log appears transparent when I paste it here,but if you click and drag it shows up)
 
Ok, thanks! Is it normal for the launcher to say the whole "wait while mods are being loaded" deal? It seems like it's stuck on that and if I click 'Launch' nothing happens
 
The log seems different this time, and off the bat Fatal Error 1.3 is staring at me. And how do I change my console log so it isn't appearing white? D:

Danmines, Can you please copy and paste into notepad before here.

Dunno why but it is setting your text to white.

*Edited post to show Error log that isn't colored white*
 
oo, good idea, so java 7 would help?
also, the launcher at least seems to be loading properly to the pack selection screen at least. I click on pack A, click Launch and then nothing.
The launcher closes like and the console info changes, but no MC comes up.

Ok, go into the folder where you have your launcher saved. Look for FTBLauncherLog.txt
When you've found that, open it. If it's larger than about half a page, copy/paste it into pastebin, then post the link for the paste :)
 
good gravy that's a lot of text!

Well, this is the issue *I think*:
Code: 
 04:16:39 [INFO] net.ftb.gui.LauncherConsole$OutputOverride.write:65 From Console: java.lang.SecurityException: class "ln"'s signer information does not match signer information of other classes in the same package
I'm going to google this. I will return when I have a respectable, hopefully helpful, answer for you!
 
When all else fails, and life gets you down, troll the tech support sections and try to help your fellow gamer!

I'm waiting to hear back about job applications, so I don't have much else to do :p

Click to expand...

You are making a profile with your Minecraft(Or Mojang email address) and password as well?

If not then the launcher wont download the packs.
