Skyfactory 3- freezing upon launch

  • Tech Support section is for getting help with FTB related problems. If there's a repeatable issue that can be labeled as a bug, then please use the issue tracker for the pack or the app at GitHub issue trackers - If there's no repository for a pack that means that the pack is old and/or will not be updated. Bugs for older packs will not be fixed, unless they are critical.

Title Skyfactory 3- freezing upon launch

Launcher Type Twitch Desktop App

Modpack FTB Presents SkyFactory 3

Modpack version 3.0.13

Have you modified the pack? No

Link to log file

Details of the issue I'm rather new to mods, and I recently downloaded the Twitch app for my laptop to be able to download mod packs such as SkyFactory. Once I downloaded said mod pack, it opens up the old Minecraft launcher, which hasn't been a problem, but once I click play, the launcher "freezes"/the game simply doesn't load. The loading bar at the bottom remains unfilled, and it says something along the lines of "Downloading jinput-2.0.5.jar". This downloading text changes each time I open an close the launcher, but it never actually loads up. Should I simply wait longer, or is there a larger problem?

EDIT: This is the case for all mod packs, not just SkyFactory 3, since I attempted to download another pack, and it wouldn't launch, as well.

Look for the setting page in Twitch. Select the minecraft tab along the left side. Then change the memory slider to about 5 GB. Also while you are change the launch method to jar launcher. Otherwise it will use a special built in version of java 8 that is very old now. If that doesn't help then use the support button at the top of this page. It has instructions on some basic troubleshooting as well as how to post log files. We really need that to help you further if you still have issues.

I changed the memory to around 5 GB, and the jar launcher was already selected. I went through support, and was able to find questions like mine, but no one had actually answered any of them, and the one that was solved, the solution didn't work for me. I'd like to be able to post a log, but couldn't find tutorial that worked for me- the only one seemed to be for windows, and I didn't have a log folder. That's fairly unrelated, so I put a question up on another forum about getting log files for mac. Hopefully I can get back with a log file.
