As it is now Christmas Eve for some and Christmas Day for others  I made an concerted effort to have a 1.4.6 update ready.  Thanks to Mojang, that wasn't possible as not all mods have up dated.  But I did have this idea in mind for the community.  All have been asking for a tech pack.  So I tried to get a 1.4.6 Tech Pack together.  Again thanks to Mojang it was a fail.

HOWEVER:  I refuse to lay down and roll over for Mojang's disregard of the modding community. So....

HERE IT IS!  I did put together a 1.4.5 Tech Pack for release.  It contains a large number of tech mods and is only missing RP2 for the moment.  This is a stop gap present and the real 1.4.6 present will be released as soon as all mods are updated.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

AMCO Tech Pack 1.4.5

Because I want get this out for a Christmas release the current download is for a MultiMC install.  However, by the time most of you know about this I will be able to get a Manual Install ready and uploaded.  Same instructions as above for install. Tech Pack
The configs for the tech pack are different from those of the regular pack so you will need to start a new world for the tech stuff.  A Manual Install will be up and ready within the hour.

And here is the link for the manual install:  Manual Tech Pack

Merry Christmas

Kenny

The tech pack didn't have the contents that were supposed to be in the bin.

Edit: Dumb me.
Edit2: it keeps telling me the update failed. So it isn't my fault.

The update failed would be MultiMC's check for updates and nothing to do with MC files.  You need to run the instance to get MMC to download the files which is what the bin folder is.

what i'm saying is that when i try to force update, it tells me this:
"the game update failed. should the instance startup continue?"
Yes:

Spoiler:

Instance folder is:

No:
Absolutely nothing.
It works fine when i try force updating Amco 1.4.5 rev 2

[Jzburda]

also, i forgot. There was a gamebreaking bug in twilight forest where if you had charms of keeping with the gamerule keepInventory on, you would lose everything. Nothing drops on the ground either. That one is still 1.4.5

Well, I have to wait for all mods to update before i can do anything.  So we have to hope an pray that all mods update quickly.  I don't really want to have to replace 2 or 3 mods because they haven't updated yet when i just released the new pack.  That would be unfair to the users of the pack who have already started worlds. So it may be just a little bit before it updates. But I will not keep people having to wait like when I started with my first release.  (And I have let Jeb know about my displeasure at how they are doing things.)

do you know that 1.5 is coming out late Jan so you can forget about updating to 1.4.7 just wait till the mods come out for 1.5 but it will be good if the mods will hurry up & update!
Also can you add a uninstaller?
You should also check out kovacic's modpack you might be able to get some mods there.

Before you install the mod just make a backup of your entire .minecraft and all you have to do is drag and drop

wait.. I posted 3 days ago.. ITS NOT POSSIBLE!

Sorry everyone for not replying to posts before now.  The day after Christmas there was a big storm here and a lot of cold and snow.  It was at this time that my landlord decided to throw me out on the streets.  I've spent the past week going thru support agencies to get assistance.  I'm slowly getting back on my feet but my replies will be less frequent now.  I am working on a 1.4.6 update to the pack and nearly have them ready to go.  but it will still be the weekend before i can release.

Believe that I will do my utmost to make sure the pack gets updated and released as quickly as i can.
