Today something really special is being launched. For the past two days I've been running an extra Minecraft server in secret to assess the possibility of us launching a Tekkit server. The testing has gone perfectly as I have found the mod to work perfectly with all our bukkit plugins and it seems quite stable on our hardware.

So you can now login straight away to mc.renmx.com:4 and play on our new Tekkit server. But I've done something very special with this new server.

It is running our Survival map. The map it is running right now is a copy of our Survival map, every single thing identical as of a few hours ago this morning. What this means is you have the choice to continue to build in our normal Survival server or switch to our Tekkit server and use all the new stuff that Tekkit includes with your current builds.

This obviously means that our Tekkit server is in Survival mode. But it also means our spawn, the border, our maze, dungeons, your iConomy balance. Everything is the same except the Tekkit server has Tekkit.

Now for those who don't know what Tekkit is, it is a mod that adds probably 500 new blocks to the game. Most of which are designed for creating industrial machinery. Sick of mining? Build a machine to mine for you. Move blocks around the map in tubes just like a city. This mod is incredibly vast in scope and capability.

HOW TO PLAY:
To play on our tekkit server you need the Tekkit launcher which you can download here: http://www.technicpack.net/download/ Once you have launched it, you will see in the top left an option to select which Mod you intend to use (This launcher supports a lot of different mods, not just Tekkit) click the dropdown box and select Tekkit (it should be the 2nd option from the top) Then on the bottom right click on Options and select "Manual Build Selection" and then from "Select Modpack build:" select 3.1.1 | 1.2.5 | Latest I recommend allocating 1.5GB or more of Memory and then click OK. Then re-open the launcher (if it closes) and put in your username and password, login and add our Tekkit server to the server list (mc.renmx.com:4).

And that's it! - Welcome to Tekkit.

Awesome

EDIT: After seeing this video I have a small thought about this. That will take tremendous amount of industral power and resources to be created right?

So cool, shame that I suck at tekkit

Here are step by step instructions with pictures for people who do not know how to do it.
First right click + run as administrator. Most of the time you do not need to do this but it prevents problems.


Next once you have excepted run. Click the dropdown box and select TEKKIT.


Clcik the options tab near your username and password.


Click manual build selection bubble.


Go to the dropdown box and select 3.1.1 1.2.5 Latest.


Now allocate some ram by clicking the dropdown and selecting 1536. If you know about allocation you can choose what you prefer. 1536MB is reccomened.


Now click ok. Login and we will continue.

Click multiplayer. (Note: Your minecraft will probably not look like this as I am using a texture pack. You can get your own later.


Click add server and enter in this to connect to the Renegades Tekkit server.


Click done.

Now double-click the server and your in.


Congratulations. If you are new to the server feel free to explore the spawn.

Now do a step by step instructions on how to install that texture pack, when i tried to install it, it kept crashing my tekkit ;(

Looks cool, for people who know how to use it...

I still haven't even enchanted something. I will get there one day guys.

I don't know if this is Mac-exclusive, but it seems that I need Minecraft Forge, which I have no idea what it is or why I do. Otherwise, I can't go on our tekkit server with the Tekkit client. Help!

There are a few guides on how to get tekkit working with mac i saw online. make sure you have the right things checked when the client is on.


3.1.1 1.2.5 Latest. in the option menu

also dedicated 1.5 gigs ram at least for it to run

Drop down box on top left click on tekkit

it should work. if not let us know

I checked all of those. It just says that I need Forge to play on the server when I log in.
