How to correctly install BTW 3.20/BC 2.2.5/IC2 1.23/RPpre3b

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.

With the New Edition to EE making it less OP, should I also add this to the guide?

I think the problem with the ID resolver thing, is that it isn't getting into MC far enough for the ID resolver to even run. I did try changing the block Id by hand, but I just changed it to another used id. I'll try lowering it by 75 and see what happens.

An aside:
Do you think this could have been cause by my version of Java? I remember that my computer had kept having a java updater window popping up, and it was annoying me, so I just installed it. Could that be the problem? My minecraft runs fine vanilla and with everything but BTW, so I don't know if that would be the problem...

Edit:
The extreme number of views might be my fault. When I'm waiting for a response while I know you are online, I hit refresh a bazillion times. Sorry, I'm impatient sometimes.

Sorry for the double post, but I think this deserves it. SUCCESS! I changed every block Id down 100, then the last 11 I had to change to 75 down. For just an ID conflict, that took WAAAAAY too much work. Ok, sorry I got kind of upset, but that was really a weird series of events. Id resolver never came up in the end either. Thanks for your help Walker, and sorry for wasting so much of your time!

Nope, the error I saw was just the standard ID error, so your java version should have nothing to do with it.

EDIT: Glad you fixed it! It was not a waste of my time, Tech. Support Issues have kinda become my thing, so it was no trouble at all.

Superman: Why did you report this thread for illegal distribution? I've looked everything over and it appears to be in order.

Are you just yanking my chain here or what?

You reported a message by walker_boh above as containing warez.

You're about 5 minutes away from a perma-ban unless you offer a reasonable explanation.

for your tech issue, nothing stands out to me as being an issue, if someone else can give it another look to see if I missed something, that would be great.
As for reporting a post of mine, I am hoping it was just a miss click.

Fair enough. I'll leave it at a warning this time. Please be more careful in the future as you draw the attention of mods (myself included) and waste our time for no good reason.

EDIT: And PLEASE quit it with the multi-posts.

Yeah multiquotes=bad
And Modloader shows the errors that occurred, and I could not find any.

I half thought that could have been your problem, but I am glad to see you got it fixed now.

I am sorry I cannot update this (or the other install guide) today (until maybe very late my time), I kinda have a huge paper to write that I may have slacked off on, that might just be due tomorrow. (Or if you hate sarcasm, I slacked off on a huge paper due tomorrow, and I will be completely screwed if I don't finish it) So again, I am very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

EDIT: Yeah....this wont get done for another 16 or so hours and will include BTW 2.99 and RP2pr3b

I just wanted to point out: If you install RedPower and Better Than Wolves on an existing Better Than Wolves world. You'll have to raise the priority of Better Than Wolves in the ID resolver GUI, so it's IDs stay the same.
Then minecraft may crash saying "ID 255 is already in use". You'll have to edit %appdata%\.minecraft\redpower\redpower.cfg* and change the value of the "autoAssign=" option.

*I trust users of OS X or Linux distributions have the ability to convert that to the right path for their OS.

It's 2.2.5 and the same instructions work perfectly fine, I just installed it.

Thanks man, good to hear BC will still work. I assume it was just sever fixes or something.

And thanks for the tip, I'll add it to the OP when I charge my laptop.
