Why dont you just use something like Tekkit, FeedTheBeast, or ATLauncher? They bundle mods together and its a click and play ordeal. They are essentially just autoconfigs for Forge.
I find the most odd thing about minecraft is how much 3rd party adds to the game, but is in no way supported by mojang. Even when Things such as pistons and horses began as mods, and were implemented into the standard game years later.
Its been years since mojang announced they'd make a mod api, and it still doesn't exist.
- Tepix 12y agoWhy would you trust your account data with a 3rd party launcher? Mojang explicitly advises you not to enter your login + password into non-official launchers.
- VLM 12y agoThe 3rd party launchers are a generation or two ahead of the stock launcher, historically the risk is about zero, and the gain is immense. Technically, CPM 2.2 is much more secure than windows 8.1 but its not sweeping the market.
- Pengwin 12y agoI had the same feeling, to be honest I just gave up caring about my Minecraft account. Mojang butchered their account system, Then butchered their own launcher. They went from a simple log in and play to this seemingly complex mash-up of features that barely anybody even needs thrust straight at you in an ugly way. 3rd Party launchers actually do this better, where you select what you want, and customisation is easily found, but optional. Launcher aside, mods are easily able to have shady code in them anyway. I remember a server which required you to use a custom modded client which, upon decompiling, i found contained a nice FTP module inside its mandatory anticheat, allowing anyone with permission on the server to issue your client commands to retrieve anything from your minecraft directory.
