Client Installation

If you're going to run a Voltz server and a client on the same machine, make sure you have at least 4GB of RAM. Just to be safe. If you're just running the Voltz client, 2 or 3GB is enough.

  1. Run TechnicLauncher.exe
  2. Select "Voltz" from the dropdown menu on the top left.
You can also select the build version of Voltz from the "Options" button under "Login", in case the server is using a developer version.
  1. Click "Login".
You'll now be at the standard Minecraft screen. You can play Voltz on your own in singleplayer mode, but it was designed with multiplayer servers in mind. Give the Gigavoltz server a try.

Troubleshooting

If you receive the message "Update failed" while installing Voltz, go to options in the Technic launcher and clear your cache. Then try logging in again.

If it then tells you that clearing the cache failed, delete the voltz folder in the .techniclauncher folder. Try clearing the cache and logging in again.
