A Guide to Tekkit - By GNRfrancis
So here's a little guide im gradually going to put together to help everyone with playing Tekkit for Minecraft. Tekkit can be quite daunting when you first play it, and you will always find yourself thinking "Where do I start??" Hopefully this guide will help you with getting started in the world of Tekkit, but also be a handy reference guide to players who already know the basics.
Please feel free to post comments in the forums of this website about how this can be developed more to suit your needs, and I will try my best to add in the information you need!

Installation - How to get Tekkit.
Tekkit runs off it's own client, and can be played both on SMP or SSP. I will be basing this guide on single player. Using this client will NOT affect your current Minecraft installation in any way. Every part of the Tekkit launcher runs on its own, with its own save folders, texture pack folders, etc.
- To download the Tekkit Launcher, click here to go to the Tekkit website.
- Start scrolling down the page and download the correct "Launcher" for your operating system. (Either Windows or Mac) The links for the download are just below where the text reads "Client is downloaded through the launcher"
- Once this is downloaded, the rest is pretty simple, just run the launcher, and it should do the rest. it will download the correct files needed, and will request you to log in. The login is the same as your normal Minecraft login details.
- Once all that is done, be sure to select "Tekkit" from the drop-down list on the left. This will load up the client with a Tekkit configuration. (You also have the option to play Yogbox, Technic Pack, or Vanilla Minecraft)
- Your Launcher will then load up a modified Minecraft Client, which will look almost identical to your original Minecraft, except this time, its got all the goodies you need to play Tekkit!
- Start a single player world as normal, and youre ready to start playing Tekkit!
