Hello,
first of all i use these mods: optifine, chat bubbless, damage indicaters , HDskins, more pistons, craftGuide, ReiMinimap, NEI, SPC, all of these are do not add new items to the game except for more pistons mod.
I have always wanted to do this: one profile opens my 1.6.2 minecraft with its mods and another profile opens 1.5.2 with its mods, how can i do that? the launcher suggested that i use different directories for each version , here's my setup:
* The modded 1.6.2 (forge)
C:\Users\MyUser\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft
* The modded 1.5.2
C:\Users\MyUser\AppData\Roaming\1.5.2 modded minecraft\.minecraft
for some reason the new launcher does not download the game in each directory, but it goes under here
C:\Users\S.Hashem\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\versions
for example i have a 1.5.2 folder in versions, inside it there are two files, 1.5.2.json and 1.5.2.jar. I have seen this video on youtube :-
however she have put here 1.5.2 mods in C:\Users\HerUser\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\mods and i want my 1.6.2 mods to be here, not the 1.5.2 once . if i put both version's mods in the same folder it will not work....any ideals?
another question, the "Use latest version" with "enable snapshots" will automatically update my profile's minecraft on startup to match the latest snapshot? or it will only stay with releases? and what does Local version editor (NYI) do?
here are the names of my current profiles
version name version
--------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------
Minecraft latest stable vanilla version | (Latest version)
Modded 1.5.2 | 1.5.2
Modded 1.6.2 (Forge) | 1.6.2-Forge9. 10.0.835
Minecraft vanilla latest snapshot | (Latest version)
how can i let the launcher let each of these profiles "versions" have its own directory?
on my created folders for the directory the launcher did not download the game on any of them.
thanks in advance.
NOTE: this is all done in the official minecraft launcher latest version.
mhmm, well forge installer by itself is a new profile, i want to install 1.5.2 compatible forge on the 1.5.2 version and a 1.6.2 compatible forge on the 1.6.2 versions, its like my aim is i dont need two .minecraft folders one for 1.6.2 and one for 1.5.2 and i have to replace them in my appdata each time i want to switch. It should be possible with the profiles thingy as i understood.
EDIT: found a solution, MultiMC, it is not compatible with 1.6 but works for 1.5, made a desktop shortcut for instantly opening modded 1.5.2 ran from a different .minecraft directory and used the default launcher for 1.6.2
