Minecraft on Linux -- Tutorials and Troubleshooting

~Table of Contents~

~~Tutorials~~
~~~How to install a texture pack
~~~How to install a mod
~~~How to import/export worlds
~~Troubleshooting~~
~~~No Sound
~~~Motions "Sticking"
~~~Black screen after trying to install plugins

~~Tutorials~~
How to install a texture pack
  • Download your desired texture pack. Navigate to your home/.minecraft/texturepacks folder, and drop the file into the folder. Open Minecraft, click Mods and Texture packs, and select.
How to install a mod
  • For this tutorial, I will be using the MillĂ©naire mod as an example. Download the mod and unzip it. Fortunately, MillĂ©naire provides instructions on how to install the mod, but in case a mod is download and no instructions are provided, they can be explained here. Make a new folder in .minecraft and name it mods. Drop the millenaire0.x.x.zip (x stand for your version numbers) into the mods folder you created. Navigate back to .minecraft and drag the millinaire folder from the download into .minecraft. If a mod contains a .class file, they will need to be placed into minecraft.jar located in the bin folder.
How to import/export worlds
  • Importing and exporting worlds are very easy, simply go to .minecraft/saves
    and either drop in or copy out the world you are importing/exporting.

~~TroubleShooting~~

No Sound while playing
  • The basic fix for having no sound during gameplay is closing any other JAVA applications (any other games that run JAVA)
 Motions "Sticking"
  • If your building and your moving at the same time, sometimes the movement continues even though you are not holding that key anymore. The problem lies within the LWJGL (Lightweight Java Game Library) and can be easily fixed. Download the latest LWJGL from their website here and extract the download files. Navigate to the bin folder of your .minecraft folder, the jar folder of the LWJGL. Replace ONLY the jinput.rar, lwjgl.rar, and lwjgl_util.rar. Now navigate to the natives to of bin folder and native/linux/ of the LWJGL. Copy all the files from the download and put them into the .minecraft/bin/natives. 
 Black screen after trying to install plugins
  • Did you delete the META-INF folder inside minecraft.jar?
  • Any other reason Minecraft would not load after installing a mod is because the mod is incompatible with another,  the mod was installed incorrectly, or the mod is obsolete to your Minecraft version.

MineDraft - The Online Building Planner

Sometimes, when it comes to making buildings, it gets tedious having to know how many items it will take to complete, or how the structure will look. Well, MineDraft is an easy way to solve that problem. Basically, you choose which block you are using for your structure, and just click the space on the grid to place that block on the graph. Once you are done, you can click the piece of paper on the bottom of the toolbar to bring up a materials list to show you how many blocks are needed. Sadly, it is like drawing on a piece of paper so you have to have multiple sketches to have every side of a structure, but it is much easier and cleaner to use than real blueprints.
