Wrong "new jar path" on Linux

Open RAZORXKHARA33 opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

I've been using this fix on Windows to play old modded versions of Minecraft b1.7.3 with great success. However, in Linux, mods do not load at all. After examining the game output in the launcher, it appears that the new jar path is set incorrectly if you have multiple drives mounted and store your game on one other than the OS drive.

Here's what the new jar path looks like in Windows: new jar path = C:\Users\[myusername]\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\versions\b1.7.3_BTW\b1.7.3_BTW.jar

But in Linux, here's what it looks like: new jar path = /mnt/Games/.minecraft/home/[myusername]/.minecraft/versions/b1.7.3_BTW/b1.7.3_BTW.jar

That path doesn't exist. The jar is actually located at /home/[myusername]/.minecraft/versions/b1.7.3_BTW/b1.7.3_BTW.jar

Why is it prepending the game's install location before the jar path, and why is this only happening in Linux? Can this be fixed without any major changes to the fix, or no? For reference, I'm running on Manjaro 19.

Hey @RAZORXKHARA33, I'm interested if you've every been able to make it work, I'd like to run old skool minecraft with some basic mods, and maybe even spin up a server, but I didn't really think of a spot to start, sorry for necoring btw.
