Minecraft Yosemite Install That I

I think we are still several months out before Capitan goes GM.

The last time I downloaded a new launcher was when Yosemite first released though.

Minecraft Yosemite Install That I

I forget now. Anyway, it took so long to provide a working game that does not depend on a java install that I removed it and thats that.

Hopefully, I will enjoy Terraria when I get around to it which finally has a Mac version.

Here is just about exactly what I did: No Java6 was harmed for this entertainment.

Simply download it from minecraft.net as you normally would (you have to do this.the existing launcher wont update to it).

It doesnt require Java to be installed - it downloads a runtime for you, as I believe the Windows launcher does.

I had to download a preview version of the new launcher from here, run that and let it do its tricks, and only after that, the new launcher worked for me.

Im not sure how the old launcher would interfere unless there were assets related to launching in LibraryApplication Supportminecraft.

So it might make sense to make a fresh start by backing up saves, resource packs, etc., deleting the minecraft folder, then running the new launcher and putting those things back once the launcher re-downloads the game assets.

For what its worth, you shouldnt have to download the launcher from that reddit thread, the download page on minecraft.net points to the latest version of the launcher.

One thing to note (which is pointed out in that reddit post) is that this new launcher requires Mountain Lion (10.8), which isnt explicitly documented on the minecraft.net download page - they only say, If you are using an older version of Mac OS X.

We also boast an active community focused on purchasing decisions and technical aspects of the iPhone, iPod, iPad, and Mac platforms.
