I'm not sure if this has posted or not...
Java 7 is needed for this Modpack,
After testing, java 8 is not compatible.
Just a friendly reminder to anyone who keeps crashing! :D

I'll add on the more technical side of it:
Java 8 brought around new changes to the underlying methods that power Java, and thus, when specific methods are called, they cause a RuntimeError because the sub-sequent methods used were not found.
If you're bored enough and you know Java, you could probably toy with rt.jar (the RunTime jar? I don't know what it is; rt.jar contains everything for Java) by decompiling it and recompiling it somehow.

My software doesn't have bugs. It just develops random features.
Do you have a hour emergency call systems broadcasting radio station WNYW or Internet Explorer? Well? Which one?
