They are doing some work updating the server (Adding new mods and updating existing ones)

 

We were preparing and testing a new set of mods and updates, but we didn't intentionally touch the live server! I don't know why it went down, but since it's currently down we'll take this opportunity to roll out the update.

All players will have to clear their cache to redownload the modpack.zip. Y'all might want to back up your Rei's Minimap waypoints. In Windows, the folder is:

Code:

[user] -> AppData -> Roaming -> .techniclauncher -> tekkitlite -> mods -> rei_minimap

To clear cache:

Tekkit launcher -> options -> "clear cache"

We updated Minefactory Reloaded, Iron Chests, Buildcraft, Treecapitator, Thaumcraft 3, ExtraBiomesXL, Power Converters and Thermal Expansion. Most of these were just bugfixes, though I know Minefactory added some new features.

We added some new mods, too.

• Portal Gun
• Painter's Flower Pot
• Painting Selection GUI
• Bibliocraft
• StatusEffectHUD
• Soul Shards
• Forestry
• Extra bees
• Thaumatic Bees
• Forge Essentials (select components)

I updated the 64x Sphax textures available here to include portalgun, soul shards and forestry + bees. I looked into updating the Soartex pack, but it didn't have a lot of completed textures.
We're still intending to add Atmosmobs, but had some weird item ID conflicts that we have yet to successfully resolve.

 

Yea! We installed it primarily for the craftable components. We turned off Forestry's copper and tin - it should accept the ones from other mods. As far as I know, the remaining world gen is limited to mostly just bee hives (once someone gets some, breeding should help) and Apatite, which isn't that important game-wise.

 

To anybody having issues accessing the server
Make sure you have Java 7 installed
If you have Java 6 completely uninstall it before installing java 7
