This has been bothering me for a long time, and I've been wondering if other people do it too. Does anyone else make a folder with previous minecraft versions to be able to play older mods? I almost guarantee I'm not the only one, but just asking.

no, just you, but that is a good idea! i might do that, rock on!

yea, you're the only one doing this.
maybe you should make a thread explaining to people how to do it
i'm sure it's much too complicated for me to comprehend and reproduce.

T_T Yep, I'm alone... Anyways, you just go to run, type %appdata%, .minecraft, bin, and copy the files to a folder like "MineCraft Beta 1.4_01". Then to go back to other versions, you just take all the files from that version's folder (besides version) and put them into the bin folder, but the version file has to be up to date.

I do it, makes it harder now with the new save format but anyways, I do it...

Others do it, I'm sure, but I don't.

I do it. I had Beta 1.2, but I lost 1.2-1.3. The oldest I have now is Beta 1.3_01.

I do! Mine go all the way back to Alpha v1.1.1

I use MCNostolgia, Beta 1.4 all the way back to Alpha 1.014

You mean I could have done this instead of waiting for Mo' Creatures to update?! *kicks self upside the head*

Dude, no way are you the only one. I still have the indev jar. I backup each of the jars, just for the hell of it.

I have a 4 gig jump-drive dedicated to minecraft Jars.

Hell, I still have the old Creative modes. The ones where sand still screwed up the water and whatnot. If I'm not mistaken I have all the way back to 0.11

I may be a few off, but that's about right.

Tons of people do it, I'm sure!

I do it but i also have a copy of the newest update just in case i want to play "legit"
