I think we are trying to do something very similar. You might like to check out this post. The GreyGhost provided some useful information. http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,25367.0.html Cheers

Thanks. I am still going through the areas highlighted by your responses. It is great that there is already a blog.

No response?! Is this a hard question or something wrong with this question? Happy to clarify if there is any issue with the question.

I am trying to understand how the client software handle keystroke and moves/clicks. It seems logical to me to trace the code that listen for and reacting to keying or mouse action events. After spending a couple of hours (probably more), I have not been able to locate the code. Can anyone help? The purpose of this is to understand player entity behaviour and how to modify part of it. I am on 1.7.10. Thanks.

Thanks folks. Your answer has been helpful because they showed that what I was trying to do is doable and that kept me going. I realised where the Edit Profile is and found that the windows that appeared before the game window is the launcher. Installing src now. All good so far. Thanks.

Thanks for the responses. Yes I am looking for the older vanilla client and server. 1.7 is fine as long as I can use forge, I guess. I have downloaded forge 1.7.10. When I ran it, it asked me to at least run Minecraft 1.7.10 once but I only have v1.8. I must have missed something that is obvious to you all. I am also not sure what is the launcher. The minecraft executable is all in one single file.

Thanks for your quick and encouraging reply. Will you be able to point me where I can download the older minecraft client and server because I only found the latest version in minecraft.net.

I am trying to start an academic software simulation project using Minecraft world as a platform. I thought Modding should be within my capability with Forge, forum and previous project using Java and eclipse. I downloaded the latest ie v1.8and then realised that Forge may take some time to be upgraded to this version. I imagine older version may actually be better because of higher software stability. I have the following questions: 1. Is it possible to download older clients and server? 2. Will finding compatible version of supporting tools be an issue? 3. WillI likely to suffer (too much?) From lack of support by the Forum? Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you for your work.
