Hi i am wanting to play on an FTB server occasionally like once a fortnight or so beacause people for school want me to go on it. when i try to go on the server it says i need to install FML does anyone know what this is and if i do intall it how will it effect me being able to play on opticraft. I still really want to play on opticraft and i know it is vanilla server and allows no mods (apart form optifine btw what is that do i need to install it) i have never instaalled mod custom map texture pack or anything so i am stuck on ho w it affects me on opticraft. anyone who can give me information about MFL and how it effects me on opticraft SMP please post
thanks Djbennyboy
FTB means feed the beast look it up it is intresting also can u explain things simply cos i am new to severs and mods thanks

First of all, what's FTB stand for? And the easiest thing to do would be to keep a jar on your desktop without the mod and a jar in your bin with it for that server.

I'm not sure why it's asking you to use FML, but here's what I'd do to fix it:
In start type %appdata% and navigate to your .minecraft folder. Backup all your saves/screenshots and delete your entire .minecraft folder. Just to make sure you're actually using the right client, go to https://minecraft.net/download and download the Minecraft client again. It should install a fresh .minecraft folder for you.
Let me know if this works.

i am really confused and im not sure why ii need to do that and exactly how to do that
I have saved all my texture pck screen shot and saves in my document folder is that correct

Ok, so I have reason to believe that you're using the wrong client to connect to Opticraft, because unless you have mods installed, the vanilla Minecraft client will never ask you to install something.
Are you running Windows or a Mac? I'll happily walk you through what you need to do.

all i have installed is one texture pack which i do not use it at all i am on windows

Our rules state that you cannot have any mods except Optifine, so perhaps you could use two different minecraft.jar files; one vanilla, one FTB. I don't know if this will work or not, as I have never attempted it, but I do know that playing Opticraft with FTB installed either won't work or will get you banned.

In simple terms... use magic launcher
-
No need to use Magic Launcher (although I recommend it) as FTB and vanilla use completely different folders in the %appdata% directory. Make sure that you use the vanilla launcher for regular minecraft eg. Opticraft and to use the FTB launcher only for FTB

You guys clearly didn't read the OP properly.

Yes, that's correct. Just remember you can't connect to Opticraft using the FTB client, and you can't connect to the FTB server using the Minecraft client. Has your issue been solved?
