minecraft 1.8.9 is an updated version of MCP. It uses gradle, has a clean code structure.
- Clone the repository
- Let it setup and index (just wait)
- Specify project SDK to Java 8 It might not work with other versions of JDK
- Once it indexes, the project should be ready to go! :)
To launch the client in the IDE, you need to execute Start.java, create ./test_run/
and specify working directory
to ./test_run/
.
Minecraft's directory will be ./test_run/
. All saves, resource packs etc. will be there.
