Creating new launcher profiles

Posted September 13, 201312 yr

Hey guys,

I'm trying to make an installer for my Forge mods, which I've packaged into a little modpack and made a test server for.

What i'm trying to set up is a system whereby players can run the installer and it will install a version of forge I specify (probably on an online .xml file), put my mods and their configs in the correct place and create a launcher profile - so the player can go from a vanilla minecraft to playing my mods with a single step.

However, I've been told that it's "impossible" to create a profile through the launcher any way other than clicking the new profile button. I thought that sounded a little strange, and the person who told me that has claimed impossible to many things in the past which have been proved quite easy, so I figured I'd ask here!

Does anyone know of any way to create a new launcher profile with external software or a .bat file then?

You mean like the Forge installer does? Try and find(maybe ask) the source code for it.

Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support.

1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support.

Forge installer just gives a new version in the profile options - I want to create the actual profile, the thing you can select from a dropdown list on the launcher itself (not inside the options)

[1.21.3] How to add effects to food?

game changed the way you create foods.
for example minecraft 1.21.8 code for the golden apple is

Foods.java
public static final FoodProperties GOLDEN_APPLE = new FoodProperties.Builder().nutrition(4).saturationModifier(1.2F).alwaysEdible().build();

Items.java
public static final Item GOLDEN_APPLE = registerItem("golden_apple", new Item.Properties().food(Foods.GOLDEN_APPLE, Consumables.GOLDEN_APPLE));

Consumables.java
public static final Consumable GOLDEN_APPLE = defaultFood() .onConsume( new ApplyStatusEffectsConsumeEffect( List.of(new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.REGENERATION, 100, 1), new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.ABSORPTION, 2400, 0)) ) )
