Without FTB Launcher

  • 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.

Deprecated download API?

Client

How can I install a new (new modpack or new version of a modpack) without the FTB Launcher.
I would prefer MultiMC.

There is a function called import from zip and FTB Legacy.
Import from zip works with older packs which have a curseforge download as zip. (E.g. FTB Unstable 1.16 isn't availible there)
FTB Legacy has a nice list of FTB Modpacks but is not up to date, as it also doesn't have FTB Unstable or the Version 3.4.0 (174) of FTB Revelation.

It feels its an deprecated API, but I can't find any alternative ways.
On the Website ftb.neptunepowered.org they say their API is decomissioned, I believe that might be related.

Server
Also the server downloads are a bit more complicated with the execution of this binary installer file.

I mean the installation via the file is not that complicated in plain bash but I use it in a docker environment with the image itzg/minecraft-server:multiarch and Environment Variables TYPE=FTBA and FTB_MODPACK_ID=47. That should work but the server keeps crashing.
