Diablo III: Lol What Is Minecraft?

Hi. While we patiently wait for certain mods to be allowed release on bukkit that will allow us to complete Tekkit 3 server for release Diablo III has been unleashed. If you thought Technic ‘development’ was slow before you’re in for a surprise!

Pop on over to our forums to tell us how terrible we are and how we should be ashamed.

Launcher Update – (1.0.1.1)

Well it’s been a while since the launcher was updated so I’ve bumped to old stable version to 1.0.0.0 and released a small update to allow minecraft directory assignment at runtime so we can be up to date with the latest minecraft version faster. This also makes sure the quit button is visible.

There were 2 other minor changes to do with the progress bar and window size.

Hack Slash Mine: Playing It Is Easy


Hi. In association with Frizzil we’ve now got the client for Hack Slash Mine in the Technic Launcher. Now, if you want to play, simply fire up the Launcher, click the drop-down, move down just past the VoxelModPack and select Hack/Mine. Play the game.
We’re working out rough ideas on how to make the server less of a PITA to set up and get going for the future, so that might help out even more.
As it stands, if someone is running the latest Hack Slash Mine server, you can connect with the Technic Launcher to that server, no issues what so ever.

Be sure to visit the donate page and throw the Hack Slash Mine guys some money if you’d like!

We’ve also included SMP’s Texture Pack with Hack Slash Mine as well, to show of those sweet new armors he’s made.

 

A Note on Forestry

Forestry will no longer be included in future versions of Technic or Tekkit.  This mod now disables certain features when used in conjunction with the Technic Launcher. Because of this we will no longer include Forestry in any future updates. Be aware that running Forestry through the Launcher (in any package) will still cause these issues, even when installed manually.

Keep this in mind as we move to support Minecraft 1.2.5 and beyond.

Donations and You: Take Another Look

Updated the donation page with links to Forge and the VoxelModPack as well. If you are feeling frisky and would like to throw money at people that deserve it, by all means take a run down the list and donate as you see fit.
I know I have personally donated many more times to the modders themselves than I spent on Minecraft itself. Maybe you should think about it too!
