Before I begin, I acknowledge that you have a rule against posting a question regarding a cracked version of Minecraft. I have no idea if this version would be considered like that:

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/37311-minecraft-portable-272-java-portable-%C2%B7-minecraft-on-your-usb-%C2%B7-now-supports-macs/

It modifies the client in such a way as to contain Minecraft in a specific directory instead of under Users. However, it still requires a Minecraft account to work. If this is considered a crack, just let me know and I will cease asking for help on this topic. However, considering the fact that I am asking ahead of time, I am hoping that your denying me help won't be constituted as a warning against me.

You don't need any cracked or modified version to do that.

Just run the launcher with --workDir argument.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

In that case, I'll assume that no "no" mean yes.

 

I only started playing Minecraft June 2013. However (and I don’t want this to sound like bragging), I have managed to accumulate enough information to be able to troubleshoot my own Minecraft install. I use Minecraft portable:

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/37311-minecraft-portable-272-java-portable-%C2%B7-minecraft-on-your-usb-%C2%B7-now-supports-macs/

The portable version used to work perfectly fine with Minecraft. I could install forge in the User directory in Windows 7. I could, then, move that to my portable Minecraft install and it would download all of the necessary library and such. However (and I don’t remember exactly when this started happening because I have family issues currently going on), now when I try to move the modified .jar over to my portable install, it doesn’t re-download the library files. I have to install Minecraft, install Forge, have it download all the necessary library files to the User directory, then move that to my portable install.

 

Here's what I get if I try to re-download the libraries:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

In essence, if I try to troubleshoot my Minecraft install, I have to be careful not to delete any of the Forge library files or else I have to re-download them into my .minecraft directory. Now, this is not that difficult for me. However, I have a private server I’m customizing for certain individuals and, short of making a mod pack that will, hopefully, install itself, I’d have to walk them through the steps of setting up their Minecraft install for certain mods and I don’t know how computer savvy they are. This is particularly important since they are using Win8 and, despite my 20+ years experience in computers, I had a hard time finding the shutdown command for Win8.

 

Mind you, I am thinking of sharing all the necessary files to them via cloud sharing. But, having a zip file small enough to download and then all they have to do is unzip and run the portable application and it will re-download all the library files would be much easier.

I would, definitely, be interested in an alternative to Minecraft Portable (if for no other reason than to have a centralized location for all my versions of Minecraft accessible by one executable). I used MultiMC for a while. But, I recall one of the all-purpose executables wasn't updating to being able to use 1.6. I guess they have now.

 

As for "--workDir", I'm open to trying a batch file. I've used them before. But, when I found Minecraft Portable, it seemed much easier to use.

1) No sob stories

2) Setting up a modpack that can pretty much 'install itself' is ridiculously easy. Zip up the mods and configs folders, tell your guys to install forge and then unzip your pack to their .minecraft. I'm sure the modders won't mind, as it's a private server pack.

3) Just use multimc. Seriously, it's much easier.

Read the EAQ before posting! OR ELSE!

      Issue trying to run my mod when I have Oculus as a dependancy

      By timy_g · Posted

      So, First of I am new to modding so bare with me I am creating a 1.20.1 forge mod that needs Oculus/Embeddium as a dependancy because later on I need to add custom shaders in for lights and such. I am using ParchmentMC as I've heard its better because of namings of things but that doesn't seem to like it when I run it alongside Oculus (Its a very barebones script adding two blocks and an item, and tested it before I did this) The 4 errors I get when I run 'runClient' is Caused by: org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.transformer.throwables.MixinTransformerError: An unexpected critical error was encountered Caused by: org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.throwables.MixinApplyError: Mixin [mixins.oculus.json:texture.MixinAbstractTexture] from phase [DEFAULT] in config [mixins.oculus.json] FAILED during APPLY Caused by: org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.injection.throwables.InvalidInjectionException: Critical injection failure: @Inject annotation on iris$afterGenerateId could not find any targets matching 'Lnet/minecraft/client/renderer/texture/AbstractTexture;m_117963_()I' in net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.AbstractTexture. Using refmap oculus-mixins-refmap.json [PREINJECT Applicator Phase -> mixins.oculus.json:texture.MixinAbstractTexture -> Prepare Injections ->  -> handler$zgm000$iris$afterGenerateId(Lorg/spongepowered/asm/mixin/injection/callback/CallbackInfoReturnable;)V -> Parse] And then a "Execution failed for task ':runClient'." error My dependancies are just these with latest forge for 1.20.1 implementation fg.deobf('curse.maven:oculus-581495:6020952') // Oculus for 1.20.1 - 1.8.0  implementation fg.deobf('curse.maven:embeddium-908741:5681725') // Embeddium for 1.20.1 - 0.3.31 I have tested these mods & forge in a different modpack alone and it works fine Any help is much appreciated!
