A cracked launcher downloads the offical libraries from Mojang/Microsoft and the game runs in “offline mode” and doesn’t authenticate. Most are able to play online in any "cracked" server but not the official Mojang/Microsoft servers.Update February 2021: TLauncher is different from Terramining Launcher and offers Forge Compatibility.Both TLauncher and Terramining Launcher both still work. TLauncher supports the latest minecraft build as of this posting, which is 1.16.5 verified. See the [[TLauncher for Minecraft]] page.Update December 2017: Terramining_Launcher_v9.2.jar compatible with Minecraft 1.12.2 using Java8.<big>Update April 2017: Terramining Launcher works, tested and verified with version 1.8.9 * using: Terramining_Launcher_v9.2.jar </big>Update February 6 2016: Mineshafter no longer works. All tested solutions fail. Use Mineshafter. This allows you to play Minecraft on a PC for free with most of the features and latest version.<del>Use Mineshafter.

However, I have never experienced that. What it always comes down to for me is the wrong blasted version of Java. OpenJDK 11 aka java-11-openjdk-amd64 aka Fake Java hates minecraft. After upgrading to Linux Mint 19.2 minecraft refused to run. To fix the problem it was necessary to install OpenJDK 8 aka java-8-openjdk-amd64 aka less crappy fake java. Another way it was solved successfully was to install real Java... from Oracle. However the folks over at Oracle are butts and make you jump though a heap of registration hoops before they let you download their precious Oracle Java. If you get your hands on jre-8u181-linux-x64.tar.gz from Oracle, it works well for minecraft. See also: [[Oracle Java for Linux]] Yet, like I said before, other things can also cause the bad state exit, which is just minecraft saying that something is wrong. You will have to do some digging in logs if the Java version was not the culprit of the problem for you.=== upgrade minecraft server to latest version ===first make a backup of minecraft server. tar -sp -zcvf minecraft1-8-8.tgz /usr/local/minecraftWe are going to upgrade from 1.8.8 to 1.12.2.

You might have to backup and delete all .dat files for a test run. Matching a dat file to a player is difficult without 3rd party tools.

This tool works for registered online players.The UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) replaces your Minecraft username to verify your identity.I think that /home/username/.minecraft/launcher_profiles.json is the file that needs modified by injecting the UUID string to restore access to the player profile. The player profile itself is on the server. Here we need to point it that-a-way.Offline Mode: Offline UUID and usernames are stored in* minecraft/usercache.jsonEach players profile is stored as a file named by the UUID with the .dat extension located in* minecraft/world/playerdataReplace "world" with the name of your world. The playerdata files DO NOT contain the username. If you are trying to determine which offline server player the file belongs to, knowing only the UUID, you will need to reference usercache.jsonYou can delete usercache.json without consequences to your world.If an op player gets a custom head another user created, even though the owner of the head has never joined your world an entry will be created in the usercache.json file.Usernames of a different case, such as Nicole and nicole will generate different UUID player files. Usernames are case sensitive.=== system migration === cp -adv /home/nicolep/.minecraft /mnt/xxx cp /home/nicolep/Desktop/Terramining_Launcher_v9.2.jar /mnt/xxx== Online Resources ==* [http://www.minecraftmods.com/version/1-8/ Minecraft 1.8 Mods] These require [http://files.minecraftforge.net/ Minecraft Forge]* [http://terraminingmc.com/ TerraminingMC: Cracked Minecraft Launcher]* [http://journeymap.info/Home JourneyMap] Also requires [http://files.minecraftforge.net/ Minecraft Forge][[Category:PC Gaming]]
