I am not being mean... but where is the punctuation? I mean; your article is far from concise. If I were to help you at all; you must help me understand the incoherent rambling with no real train of thought...

Take your time...

Translate : ...

"Hi i am 15 and taking AP computer sic only been in the class for a few weeks i don't really know where to start or really much about java. I am in need of help, most people these days are using the Technic launcher to play Mine-craft as there are many more features in comparison too the original game, but there is one problem they only let you play the modifications in that they themselves are incorporated with. What i would like to do is to create a program that will do the same thing as the Technic Launcher , somehow incorporate the same procedure as a magnet link (the same as the ones slowly replacing torrents) so people can click a magnet link and it will download the file when there is an update "

end translation.

This is all i could make out of it O.o i thought i had the jist of his question at first , but towards the end realized your problem pwnd2pwnr

PC2011 , what is your target that you wish to achieve?

That kinda it. Sorry about my rambling.

I went on and took certain words you said in the rambling and I looked up that "technic launcher" and found this. http://www.technicpack.net/ . That is the package you are referring to.

I would have two questions:

1. Is technic launcher java based?

2. Why would a torrent or magnet link be of any consequence?

I can see you are really enthusiastic about this. I think you ought to go ahead and learn some more basics on how things work; opposed to how things may work. I love the enthusiasm; and we all start some where. If you go ahead and really write out the question, stating each point concisely, and revising your question into one sentence at the end. Keep on learning, young Padiwan, and the more concisely you ask a question, the more thorough a response another can give.

Study hard and screw what other kids may say. Be smart; but never think you know everything because no one knows everything.

well I dont want to copy what they have dont.

1. I think it could be written in many diffrent code I dont think there is one it has to be in. I just have been reading and java can download and unzip files.

2.Ok so my thought was not a torrent but more how it acts like how it is a small package of data that gose into a program and the program takes the link or im this case the tracker for the torrent and gets the pakage to be umziped.

3. I think for the file thats has the download like I need to find a way to protect them from the normal person from just opening files and messing with them.

4. Maybe a web GUI for with packs that a group of people have tested and think are worthy or should it be a desktop cmd window (most users I know us windows for this program linix is really buggey we have found) I think a actual GUI would be a ton of time put to waste I have not spent a ton of time on them only know how to make a chekerd board not that im lazy but this is more a function then a thing for people to sit and look at.

I would love to hear what you guys think of my idea and it would be for server owners that want spcific mod packs that they have specialized.

As far as i am aware , most things that are minecraft are java based , not too sure on the tekkit pack though, and with regards to the torrent and magnet link i'm not too sure how you mean but i'm pretty sure you are referring to the magnet links.

To be the bearer of bad news; the technic loader is compiled by a professional. I am into programming, but not even close to making a game of Minecrafts caliber.

To put it another way; the amount of time and resources would not be anything I would want to get involved with unless I was getting paid somehow. I do not enjoy java; as it is one of those languages that rears vulnerabilities time and time again.

Young Padiwan, I would like you to go to the repository that created technic launcher. Look at all of that data that it takes to actually create something like this. You should spend more time on school work than some silly game; but I am interested in how much you may know technical wise. Check out this site from securitytube.net (This video, to be exact:http://www.securitytube.net/groups?operation=view&groupId=5). If it is above your head; you should not embark on a full blown project such as the one you described above.

Step away from the video game; and start learning. Don't do anything stupid; seriously. I am giving you this resource assuming you are consenting not to part take in any violations of local, state, and federal laws. Most people in this community do not do that, as we have no interest in becoming someones bitch in prison; or the other way around... I digress, though.

Google "7 layer OSI model". Study this hard. This is a stepping stone everyone needs to know. Take all of the notes you need (back in school I wrote a page for each on MS word in 12 point font) I want you to write start a new forum; name it "The 7 layers of OSI". Describe your age and why you are enthusiastic about computing. Then, in your own words, describe each layer. If you have questions, ask! (Remember, be concise, if you do not know what that means, google it.)

I challenge you this because we all need to learn. Google it, Bing it, just study all of that information until it clicks. It will be a long journey and you will not become a IT guy over night. Dedication is what you need. Nothing happens over night... you must bust your ass and learn everything! Minecraft makes you learn nothing; Halo makes you learn nothing; video games are alright in moderation...

Hope you can do this... bud. I think the minds of tomorrow are the ones who will shape the future. Remember; DO NOT CONDONE ANY ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES.

Good luck, young Padiwan... may the force be with you...

Hey, I hope you did not take my comment the wrong way! Dude, you are young! Meaning, your brain can comprehend MORE than what my brain can. Studying is gratifying. The sooner you figure that out, the sooner you can do anything!

That is cool. Here is a nifty idea so you can REALLY get the basics... I use it as a reference guide sometimes. See if your parents will shell out the "dough". A+ is a standard of understanding the computing process in almost its entirety. If there are words or things you may not understand; I am sure the folks here (including myself) will help ya out... as long as you put in your fair share of effort in trying to wrap your brain around it. Your front cerebral cortex is far more pliable than mine.

Google "A+ books" or go to your local bookstore.

PS... Be careful about whom you talk to about what you discover; your teacher may assume you have done something wrong if another student were to "hack" the labs after you told him/her that you joined an online forum called "Hak5". Trust me... you do not want to have police officers escorting you out of school in hand cuffs.

Also, your friends can get freaked out and report you. ALWAYS USE DISCRETION!
