Tried that already, same issue. tried entire .minecraft folder, same issue. My unmodded backup got overwritten somehow, so I can't just clean slate it atm T.T

My java is version 7 beta, if that has any impact.

If you mean your unmodded backup of Minecraft itself, simply delete the whole thing and let it download again from scratch. (You can even delete all the contents of .minecraft, but make sure to back up everything first so you don't lose things like saves, screenshots, and config files.)

Water shader mod isn't compatible, IIRC.

Really helpful to me earlier when I had a mini brain-fart and somehow forgot that you had to use WinRAR rather than just dragging and dropping :)

I'll use this every time I install as i'm a right dick when it comes to doing this in order and correctly ;)

Why, because it seems I have forgotten to update this to 3.22.

Sorry about that. Try this link viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1798

I dont know what I am doing wrong. I have done this step by step. I deleted everything having to do with minecraft off of my computer first just in case there was a problem somewhere in all of that. I then redownloaded it from the site and followed this step by step, I am still getting the black screen after log in.

I am not running any other mods, just mod loader and BTW. And I have tried installing them in different orders and everything, but I always get the black screen.

I did everything the same way. And it still gives me black screen

I have Mo'creatures installed. But At 1.8.1 I had both mods running in the same time.

Well, BTW is now incompatible with just about every mod out there, due to dropping forge, so try just BTW.

I'm not sure what the problem is, I am almost certain that I started with a clean .minecraft folder. Are you sure you are adding the folder contents, not the folders themselves?

I've tried every guide, youtube video, and forum I could think of to get this mod to function properly and nothing has worked so far.

If on windows, use 7zip to patch the jar properly, it seems other archive editor programs are messing with the jar file.

Actually, WinRAR also seems to work fine, at least on my system. Haven't had any problems with mangled jars yet, at least.

I've been using JZip so that may be the problem. I'll download 7zip and try again.
Thanks for the speedy response

Can we make a note of this in red somewhere?

This error always occurs when someone is using JZip :/. It's just a very shitty program it seems.

Yep, Jzip was the problem, I downloaded 7Zip and now the mod works perfectly.
