My names tendragon (not really but you get the idea) I originally played on scourgecraft the sister sever of this but with it being shut down I decided to give this a try. So what is tekkit about?
Hey Ten. Tekkit is about awesome. A little more awesome and with a side of awesome. I recommend you hit up YouTube for tutorials and try out this wiki. Also the mod specific wiki's. Once you have a basic grasp, get in there and start building the most amazing stuff in Minecraft yet!
Okay great if only less saddening events brought me here also where can I download tekkit? And what's the server ip? Please no one loose it on me for not already knowing these things this was a kinda spur of the moment thing.
IP is under the picture at the top of the site. play.sgtekkit.net DL the launcher http://www.technicpack.net/tekkit/ Ten, you should know better by now. We have a wiki.
Ha ten! Guess you decided to give SGTekkit a try! If ya need anything, I'd be happy to lend you a hand in figuring out the Tekkit stuff. Can't just turn my back on a friend right?
Kew I'm doing this from my iPod so I can't view most of the stuff I'm sorry but I figured it won't hurt to ask. So once I download it then what?
Thanks Ista but I may need help mainly with figuring out some of the mods and figuring out the techinical stuff like I just completed the download of tekkit now what? Also when I tried logging in it said it was outdated now what?
The launcher is what you would click on to play Tekkit. The program. There's an options menu there somewhere.
Just download either the exe or jar from technicpack.net and run it. If the .jar isn't working, make sure you've got Java path'd. Worst case you should be able to "OPEN WITH" the Java SE library (right click, open with, choose java).
Uh. Click download. Run it. Select Tekkit. Log in. If you can't figure that much out I dont think there is much we can do to help you.
I did all that but when I logged in it said that the server was outdated. Also when you say select do you mean in minecraft select this server or select the tekkit thingy in the file? Sorry but again I'm not very good with computers, thanks for being patient with me. Also do I still have to apply in the forums to get whitelisted?
You need to apply to be whitelisted. Here are somethings you need to do: 1. Download Java 7. 2. Go on the Technic Website and download the Technic Launcher. 3. Run Technic Launcer. It is a standalone launcher like SpoutCraft. Run the program. 4. Sign in with your Minecraft Account. 5. Select the Tekkit modpack in the drop box in the top left corner. It will install all of the Tekkit mods into your minecraft.jar that came with the Tekkit launcher. 6. Type in the IP and connect. Hope that was helpful.
Ten, you should join me, dafefman, electaxe, and sorarikuboom in a small, unoffical town. We will help you get started.
It shouldn't say the server is outdated, but the fact you've got it installed and all that is good. Yes, you should still have to apply to join the forums by going through the app process. Just make sure you read the top post that says "READ THIS BEFORE APPLYING" or something like that before making your app. The devil is in the details. Also, read the rules, look over the wiki and familiarize yourself as much as possible with Industrialcraft 2 as that is a chief mod that is used here. Once you feel that you sort of have a grasp of it, move on to redpower. If it's too much, don't worry. There are plenty of people who are great with helping out when you're ready to take on advanced stuff.
1. I have java 7 2. I did that Kew gave me the link 3. I think I did that it's what popped up when I selected download right? 4. Did that does it matter that I use the downloaded version? 5. So I search for the minecraft jar file and drag the whole tekkit folder into the mod folder in the jar file? 6.thats the easy part right? Thanks hope this works. And yes I'd like to join your unofficial town mad.
