GitHub - Alexivkin/minecraft-launcher: Offline Linux Minecraft Launcher In Pure Bash For Standard And Forge Versions

A smarter way of managing multiple minecraft installations on Linux. It downloads and installs Minecraft version on demand, including all the appropriate libraries and assets. This works well with the minecraft launcher for Linux.

- Supports Forge and vanilla Minecraft versions on demand installation. - Supports offline game profile - Allows multiple versions and player profiles to be accessible simultaneously. - Keeps game assets separate and versioned libraries separated for easier file management

Prerequisites: make sure you have the following tools installed: jq,unzip,curl, sha1sum

Running: ./start

To run Forge versions, add the suffix “-forge” to the version. For example:./start 1.7.10-forgeplayer1. To see the current versions of Forge and normal versions, run the script with an uninstalled version, such as./start 0. player1,./start.0-forge player1. - To create game profiles with the same game version (and the same player name) to test different mods, enter a name for the profile in the last argument.

1. To rebuild everything, delete the version subfolder from "versons" and run it again. You can delete versions and player profiles from separate folders. 2. If #1 does not work with a Forge version of the program, you can remove the Forge and mainline versions folders from the "versions" menu and run it again.
