You see, I am having troubles starting minecraft, and the reason I posted this is because other people could too, if you have the same problem, please post!
When I try to load minecraft, the loading bar stops at 8/10s of the way, and when I try to update/force to update, the bar is froze and says "Downloading packages" I tried using MultiMC, but It didnt seem to help either.I havent deleted/got rid of anything at all. I have also tried seeing if I have too much stuff and if my memory disc is full, but there was plenty of gigabytes of space left. I have tried using the browser version too but to no avail. I am really getting worried. If you are encountering this problem or know a solution, please post below!
Something's probably messed up in the game files. Redownload the .jar, and if that doesn't work, delete the contents of your minecraft folder and launch it again. (It will redownload them automatically.)
Well I have tried redownloading them and the bar froze, but I will try deleting and redownloading, thanks
EDIT:Aw darnit same results, the downloading bar freezing at 8/10s of the way or not starting at all
Hey i just got a new computer and with i am using windows 8 and currently am having a log in issue, i have the minecraft.exe ile up and when i log in i get an error alert:
Bad video card drivers!
-----------------------
Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode.
This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.
