Update to 1.4.5

[Darlock Ahe]

Just use something like MultiMC, install all mods and add config folder from latest FTB pack, it works.
You won't be able to make FTB launcher use another version of minecraft.

Hopefully you won't need to. We plan to update often so the pack stays up-to-date with the mods and with Minecraft.

That should be a top priority for you guys. Nothing is more frustrating than watching a modpack you're using going out of date more and more each day.

I have found a workaround for this:
1. Download the universal electricity modpack with the ftb launcher. This way the ftb launcher will use minecraft 1.4.5
2. Manually delete all the mods in the universal electricity modpack (i really mean all the mods including forge)
3. Download minecraftforge-universal-1.4.5-6.4.1.410 and copy it into your instMods folder
4. Copy over the new updated mods
5. Delete the universal electricity config and replace it with the FTB 1.4.2 config. You will get a crash if you dont do this.
6. Win

Iam using the FTB pack + thaumcraft, EE and optifine and it works. I loaded a world and i havent got a crash so far.

Enjoy!!!

...or you could just use MultiMC and use the import config feature.

Well I never used multimc. In fact I never used any launcher until ftb I always installed my mods manually. Maybe I check it out.

That's the way to talk to the players that play your mod pack. Way to keep em coming back. SO nice to see the love from the mod pack team.

I don't see why they owe you any love at all ...you aren't paying them in any way, but you are playing a mod pack they have put their personal time and energy into so that others might enjoy themselves.

I think you should just be grateful they take the time to let us know what is going on in any fashion at all, and a little thanks instead of complaining would be much more appropriate.

Considering people are constantly going an about 'when is it going to be released, why isn't it released yet, etc.', you can see why it can get frustrating when it seems no one listens.

They should be concentrating on the pack and making sure it all works (which they do a good job on) and not have to worry about a community who are, for lack of a better description, just essentially whining. Plus, the FTB team don't know when it will be released either. One of the main things they are waiting for at the moment is Redpower, the best they can say for that is, it will be done when it is done and it will be done when Eloramm fixes the last few known bugs and even then, you don't know how long that will take.

So, cut them some slack and let them get on with it. It's not like they are harming you in any way by not giving out info they don't know themselves.

I think you should stop being a fan boy and try to troll someone else. You can't blame people for being stoked about getting new things and wanting them as soon as possible. And yes they should show some love to there players. If it is not for us, then there mod pack would be yet just another mod pack for minecraft. But thanks to us players, they have become THE number 1 mod pack to have.

It is unclear here whether you are are attempting to be condescending, or are simply being blunt. However as this is an agitation thread, it is more likely than not going to be read as condescending. If the intent was in fact not intended to be condescending: Thank you, and your fellow team members for your hard work getting these packs out out quickly.

If you were trying to be condescending: You lack both the eloquence and tact of Slowpoke and many of the mods, you should leave the telling off of forum members to them they are much better at it.

Also for those interested there is a user updated thread with what mods have already been updated to 1.4.5, and which have not yet been updated, do a search for it, it's around here somewhere. Checking that thread would probably be better than asking an FTB team member as it does not appear that FTB will update until (all?) the mods are updated, and I doubt FTB team members have the time of hardcore moddies to track every mod down on an up to the minute basis (nor would I expect them to).

What about once all the mods are updated and FTB is still 1.4.2? No comment.

we track down mods almost as soon as they updated on a daily bases
