BlockLauncher: a custom Minecraft PE launcher for Android
formerly known as MCPELauncher.
BlockLauncher is a custom Minecraft PE launcher that wraps around Minecraft PE and provides loading of patches, and (in the Pro version) texture packs, and server IPs.
Just choose Options on the main screen, then select mods. It is that easy!
This program loads libminecraftpe.so from the currently installed copy of Minecraft PE, so it should be compatible with the mod patching features of PocketTool and QuickPatch.
Known issues:
- Jelly Bean users cannot use original textures - they will get the standard demo texture pack
- You can't use the hidden Camera item

This is so cool. I do not normally use texturepacks, but now it is so easy to use, I actually enjoy them. Even though it is a test demo, it works great on my device.
Minecraft only loads textures once, so it should, after start up, be as fast as normal Minecraft.
Any ideas on how I can make this better than the official launcher?
Obviously, the notification bar has to go. If it's possible, when you go to select your texture pack, the app will go to a specific folder (let's say... games/com.mojang/texturepacks) and that's where you can put all of your TPs. And maybe you can let users change their IP for faster server joining like PocketTool.
In particular, I'm looking for ideas for a better Create World screen, since that isn't implemented in this launcher yet. Any ideas?
Maybe there could be an option to generate either a regular world or a superflat world.
Hey, I tried your new pocket tools, now I can't craft anything
It force close when I press the crafting places.Never mind I think it is a mod that did this.
I stoped the MCPELauncher.And I can't opn MCPE agian.....If I click the start game or option it will be exit.How to solve it?(I don't know why I can't login my twitter.)

Odd. Are you trying to launch the MCPELauncher or the normal Minecraft? Try force closing both?

Lol:
You must play this app by turning on auto rotation of course.
Look in the picture there's something unusual that creative doesn't have : :))
A title bar? Yes, the rotation is a known bug, the title bar isn't.
You have a mod patched. Can't reproduce with an official APK.
Minecraft only loads textures once, so it should, after start up, be as fast as normal Minecraft.
Any ideas on how I can make this better than the official launcher?
In particular, I'm looking for ideas for a better Create World screen, since that isn't implemented in this launcher yet. Any ideas?
Obviously, the notification bar has to go. If it's possible, when you go to select your texture pack, the app will go to a specific folder (let's say... games/com.mojang/texturepacks) and that's where you can put all of your TPs. And maybe you can let users change their IP for faster server joining like PocketTool.
Maybe there could be an option to generate either a regular world or a superflat world.
Done.
I can't patch mods from inside the app, so I can only do cosmetic changes.
Anyways, beta 4. Includes almost all the preferences from Minecraft PE, and a bonus one.
It force close when I press the crafting places.Never mind I think it is a mod that did this.
Wrong thread. Please make sure that you are using mods that are compatible with your Minecraft version.
I tried before:
Well, you can see how that worked out. I decided to have another crack at it today and it worked!
So far, I can only reimplement the Java parts of Minecraft PE. Modifying the C++ section will be another project.
Thanks! Does it work on your device?
Odd. Are you trying to launch the MCPELauncher or the normal Minecraft? Try force closing both?
Both.All of them weren't enter start game.
This shouldn't affect the standard Minecraft installation. Are you using an unmodded APK? Can you get a logcat of the error?
iOS has MobileSubstrate, which could probably do this - ask one of the iOS modders such as SomeFellow http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1646086-ios-auto-mine-mod-code-based/ or C0deh4cker.
