Not sure if this is intended but whenever I attempt to download the Linux version of the FTB launcher I only find the .sh file for the modpack I was previously looking at.

Using the sh file I am able to get to the basic minecraft .jar file but I can't seem to get anything else to work properly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am very new to linux(ubuntu) and I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.
 
Im having the same issue both when I look at it on windows as well as on linux. So a update or some help would be nice.
 
Should be pretty straight forward, download the file and then run it.

Use wget and command line and set permissions if it fails via browser download.
 
cant get the download link, I will go into more detail tmr cus it is late rn. Thanks for the help though :)

This should work:
wget https://apps.modpacks.ch/FTBApp/rel.../FTBA_unix_202007161516-479dedc615-release.sh

Hi,
I encountered a minor problem after executing the wget command and the .sh.
The text in the installer was always in very light grey, even when the background was white.
I think the error was my fault because running the .sh returned this text to me:
Gtk-Message: 14:43:18.585: Failure to load the "canberra-gtk-module".

(here is an example of how the installer looks like)

Very strange - that should work.

Can you try and install the packages for gtk?
