If you're having problems with your installation of Better Than Wolves, or if you've woken up in the future and are beginning to doubt the nature of reality, here's the place to post about it.
Suddenly MCPatcher can't launch properly, which prevents me from playing. I have tried manually installing the file like it says, but it changed nothing.

Have you tried going to the "site" of the json (https://bitbucket.org/prupe/mcpatcher-l ... egacy.json)? I just did (albeit hours later so it might've been a internet server/hiccup issue. try running mcpatcher again. If it doesn't work, then do as the error message recommends.

Already tried it - doesn't work. Weird thing is a friend of mine, who just installed BTW with MCPatcher and got it to work without problems, doesn't even have the legacy file within his .minecraft.
Very frustrating that this started out of nowhere - Yesterday MCPatcher was working fine
I'm getting the same problem, as is a friend. However a third friend can run it fine. I'm not sure what the problem is. Does anyone have any ideas? Looks like the same error.
I've done what the error message says, file is there in place yet still the error persists
I tried installing BTW with MCPatcher on my shitty laptop and it worked just fine. Oddly enough the mcpatcher-legacy.json wasn't even installed in .minecraft, so not sure why I suddenly need it.
I have even tried deleting everything inside the minecraft directory and starting over from scratch, but alas.
Yeah I've spoken to multiple people now and some are having problems, some not, seemingly random. I'm not sure what's going on. There must be an explanation. I can't really update BTW until I get this sorted so I've had to ban everyone on my server from updating too haha, bad times. I'll have to take another look when I get some time over the weekend. Meanwhile if anyone else has any insight I'd love to hear it :(
Just a wild gues from the stack trace and your java version. It could be that the ssl connection can not be established because your java version does not trust the bitbucket website. Try updating java that should help in this case.
It seems to have worked... Except the sound doesn't work anymore XD (likewise for installing without MCPatcher for me).However, I should probably start a new thread about that :)
There's already a lot of information regarding the sound issue in other threads. Basically you have to copy the resources folder over from an older installation or find somewhere to download them from (not going to give a link because piracy).
