The current Minecraft launcher

The Minecraft launcher is the login and downloader front-end to the stand-alone client. It is responsible for downloading the main Java packages, including minecraft.jar and LWJGL, which holds the code and resources of the game such as textures. It also acts somewhat like a basic and easily bypassable copy-restriction by forcing the user to login to a paid account when running for the first time. It has been part of the stand-alone client since its inception. It is possible to use the launcher to run versions of Minecraft since before Indev.

There have been four different development stages for the launcher, the first for the Alpha version, the second since the release of Minecraft 1.0, the third since 1.2, and the fourth and current 1.6 Launcher. The launcher's design last changed on July 18, 2013.

Behavior

Every time the launcher is executed, it checks a specific directory where Minecraft stores its files called .minecraft. It checks a file called "launcher_profiles.json" for login credentials. If the file does not exist, is corrupt, or no user is logged in, the user must login with a valid premium account, otherwise the game will refuse to run.

When logging in, the launcher will first try to verify the login. If a valid "launcher_profiles.json" file exists but there is no internet connection, the launcher will offer a "Play offline" mode if a player was logged in when it was last closed. If the connection is successful, the launcher will then, depending on profile options, compare the latest version in the latest "versions" directory to the latest version reported by the server. If the selected version does not exist or the latest installed version is outdated when "Use latest version" is selected in the profile, the launcher will download all Minecraft components and Java binary files. It will also synchronize everything in the Assets folder (see Resource pack)

Finally, upon a successful update or installation, the launcher will execute "minecraft.jar" (via "javaw.exe", Oracle's Java Virtual Machine executable.) It is possible however for there to be missing ".jar" files, in which case the launcher will attempt to replace the missing files automatically but will stop if there is no connection.

Currently, Minecraft launcher supports only English. Users cannot select their preferred language.

Command-line usage

minecraft.jar (all systems):

java -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame <username> <password> <server:port>


minecraft.exe (Windows executable):

minecraft.exe <username> <password> <server:port>

minecraft.jar (Windows - no CMD window):

javaw -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame <username> <password> <server:port>

As of the new launcher released with Minecraft 1.2.3, username and password options use a prefix.

--username=<username> or -u=<username> --password=<password> or -p=<password>

If using a server:port it must still be the 3rd option. So if not used with username and password, dummy options need to be added in their place.

No update option also added.

1.6 Launcher

File:Launcher Login.png

The login screen of the 1.1.1 Minecraft launcher

A new version of the launcher was released on April 18, 2013 (with snapshot 13w16a). It lets users choose the version they want to play, downloads all resources before launching the game and updates additional libraries (function previously unavailable). Later it will have more functionality as it currently is in its early development stage. Demo is available to non-premium users after a successful login. The launcher can automatically update itself; the most recent version is 1.3.11.

Features

  • Manage multiple profiles. Each profile can control:
    • Game version. Includes access to outdated development builds and previous releases. You can also add older/custom versions manually[1]. See this video for instructions.
    • Mojang account used to play the game
    • Command line arguments for Java (such as heap size)
    • Game Directory (where the game files are saved on disk)
    • And so on.
  • The launcher doesn't store your password locally. Instead of this, it now uses a 'refresh token'.
  • Automatic updates for launcher.
  • Ability to update libraries, such as LWJGL.
  • Offline mode. (The first time launch requires an Internet connection to download required resources)
  • Currently only available in English.
  • Crashes can be reported to Mojang, through Hopper.
  • Crashes are now indexed through a database for information on how to fix the issue.

Time Machine

File:HowToAllowOldVersions.png

A profile with Alpha and Beta versions enabled

On August 1, 2013, the Minecraft launcher was updated to include the ability to play old Alpha and Beta versions of the game. Currently, Alpha, Beta, and all Release versions are available to play. Classic, Indev, and Infdev versions are already added under the names "old-alpha version".[2]

Progress

To enable the old versions either click the "Edit Profile" button or, preferably, create a new one. Under the "Version Selection" section choose to allow use of Alpha and/or Beta versions by ticking the appropriate boxes. Next, select the desired version from the drop-down menu and save the profile.

However, these versions are very out of date and some may be unstable. Any bugs, crashes, missing features, or other glitches will never be fixed in those versions. Mojang strongly recommends that you play them in separate directories to your other saves to avoid corruption.

Command-line usage

MinecraftDev.jar (all systems):

java -cp Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.bootstrap.Bootstrap <username> <server:port>

The 1.6 launcher also added some new commands, for the launcher. These are shown if you do

java -jar Minecraft.jar -help

A '''nautilus shell''' is an item that is used for crafting [[conduit]]s.

==Obtaining==
===Fishing===
{{main|Fishing#Junk and treasure}}
Nautilus shells can be rarely obtained as a treasure item from fishing. The drop chances of nautilus shells slightly increase with each level of [[Luck of the Sea]] on the [[player]]'s [[fishing rod]].

===Mob loot===
[[Drowned]] have a 3%{{only|java|short=1}} or 8%{{only|bedrock|short=1}} chance to spawn with a nautilus shell in their off-hand, and this nautilus shell always drops upon [[death]].

===Trading===
[[Wandering trader]]s may [[trading|sell]] a nautilus shell for 5 [[emerald]]s each, but they only sell 5 of them at a time.

==Usage==
{{IN|bedrock}}, a nautilus shell is one of the few items that can be held in the off-hand.

===Crafting ingredient===
{{crafting usage}}

=== Trading ===
Nautilus shells can be given to trident-wielding drowned with a chance for the drowned to pick up the shell and drop the trident.<sup>[''[[Bedrock Edition]] only'']</sup>

==Issues==
{{issue list}}

==Trivia==
*[[wikipedia:Nautilus|Nautilus]]es are animals that occupy deep oceans in the real world. However, they are absent in Minecraft and there are currently no plans to add nautilus [[mob]]s into the game.
*Because {{el|bedrock}} allows for Nautilus shells to be held in the off-hand (since drowned hold them), they are the only item in that version that can be put in the off-hand slot without having a specific function.

A '''minecart with TNT''' is a block of [[TNT]] inside a [[minecart]]. Unlike normal TNT it can detonate instantly under certain conditions and its damage and blast radius is increased by its speed when it detonates.

== Obtaining ==

=== Crafting ===

{{Crafting
|Output= Minecart with TNT
|type= Transportation
|TNT|Minecart}}
Minecarts with TNT can be retrieved by attacking them, and by doing so it drops as an [[item]].

== Usage ==
[[File:TNT minecart and powered activator rail.png|thumb|right|When the TNT minecart passes over the powered activator rail, it explodes after four seconds.]]
[[File:Simple TNT minecart detonator setup.png|thumb|right|Placing two TNT minecarts on the rail and powering it (here, by flicking the lever) creates an instant explosion.]]
[[File:TNT minecart roof trap.png|thumb|right|Destroying the gold block causes the TNT minecart to fall down and instantly explode.]]

A minecart with TNT detonates after a delay on these conditions:
* It moves over a powered [[activator rail]].
* It is destroyed while in motion (except by a player in Creative mode).
* It is destroyed by fire, lava, or an explosion.
*{{IN|java}}, it is hit by a [[fire charge]].

The delay is {{convert|4|seconds|ticks}} for an activator rail, like the TNT block. For other causes there is a random delay between 0 and 1.9 seconds, but more likely to be close to 1.

It detonates instantly on these conditions:

* It hits the ground with a downward velocity of it falling more than three blocks, unless landing on any form of rail.
* It turns on a curved track too fast, with a solid block or entity located beside the track (in the previous movement direction).
* It is hit by a flaming arrow.
* It is pressed into a block or entity and has velocity.

Upon detonation it acts as normal TNT, [[exploding]] and damaging nearby blocks, players, and entities. Upon detonation after activating on activator rail, it does not destroy its rails and the blocks the rail is on, however other nearby carts can.{{only|java}} More than one minecart can be placed on the same rail block, allowing many of them to fit into a single block. They explode when touched, dealing large amounts of damage.

The explosion has a base [[Explosion#Explosion strength|power]] of 4, the same as regular TNT, but the game also adds a random bonus value up to 1.5 times velocity, but no higher than 7.5. This means that with a speed of 5 or higher the power will be a random value between 4 and 11.5. When triggered by an activator rail or by damage, the bonus value is calculated using the horizontal velocity of the minecart. When hit by a flaming arrow the velocity of the arrow is used instead. When triggered by fall damage, the fall distance divided by 10 is used.

Minecarts with TNT bounce off of other minecarts and cannot be linked to [[minecarts with furnace]]s.

{{Item

}}
A '''name tag''' is an [[item]] used to name [[mob]]s in the world and prevent them from despawning naturally.

== Obtaining ==

=== Chest loot ===

{{LootChestItem|name-tag}}

=== Fishing ===

Name tags can be caught from [[fishing]] as part of the treasure category with a {{frac|1|6}} chance after the 5% chance of being a treasure catch. The chance of catching treasure increases with the [[Luck of the Sea]] enchantment.

=== Trading ===

Master-level librarian [[villagers]] offer to sell a name tag for 20 [[emerald]]s as one of their available trades.

== Usage ==

To use a name tag, it must first be renamed with an [[anvil]], costing 1 [[experience]] level. 

If it is not renamed, it has no effect when used on a mob. After the name tag is renamed, the player can {{control|use}} it on a mob to give it the name given to the name tag from the anvil. Mobs and name tags can be renamed any number of times. Name tags with the same name are stackable. 

Once a mob is named, it keeps its name, and the name tag is consumed.

When a mob is named, it is excluded from the mob cap count.

Effects on various mobs:
* A named [[silverfish]] that goes into a block appears to lose its name because it is replaced by a newly generated unnamed silverfish when the block is broken.
* A baby (animal or villager) keeps its name when becoming an adult.
** A named [[villager]] keeps its name when transformed into a [[Zombie Villager|zombie villager]].
** A named zombie villager keeps its name when cured.
* [[Wandering Trader|Wandering trader]]s still despawn even if they are named, or in a [[minecart]] or [[boat]].
* A named [[wither]]'s boss bar displays its name instead of "Wither".
* Naming an [[ender dragon]] with commands also displays the name in the boss bar.

=== Limitations ===

Any mob can be named except for the [[ender dragon]] and [[player]]s.

A name tag can rename an [[armor stand]], though it does not show the nameplate above its head until <code>CustomNameVisible:1b</code> is set as an extra step.

{{control|Using|use}} a name tag on a villager renames the villager instead of opening the trading interface. A saddled pig is renamed instead of being ridden. Using a name tag on any other mob that can be interacted with performs the {{control|use}} action instead of being named. These mobs can be renamed if the player uses the name tag while crouching or standing in a [[nether portal]] because the portal suppresses the {{control|use}} action.

Once a name tag is used on a mob, it is impossible to remove the name of that mob without the use of commands or external modifications.

=== Behavior ===

Renamed mobs have their name displayed over their head in the same fashion as a mob named through a renamed [[spawn egg]]. Their names can be seen only if they are aimed at from four or fewer blocks away.

Mobs that are named using the name tag never despawn in the world, similar to tamed mobs.<ref>{{tweet|dinnerbone|327485109940916226}}</ref> The exceptions are [[wandering trader]]s or if the mob is hostile and the difficulty is switched to "[[Peaceful]]", causing any hostile mobs or any named hostile mobs to despawn immediately. 

If a renamed mob kills a player, the custom name is used in the death message in place of the mob type name. For instance, if a vindicator named "Johnny" kills a player, the death message is "Player was slain by Johnny". 

A renamed [[wither]] also has a renamed health bar, and the boss bar doesn't regenerate{{verify}}.

=== Easter eggs ===

* Any mob that receives the name "[[Easter eggs#Upside-down mobs|Dinnerbone]]" or "[[Easter eggs#Upside-down mobs|Grumm]]" is rendered upside down. This even includes the player in early versions of Bedrock Edition if the username is set to either of these and you are not signed into Xbox Live.
* Naming a [[sheep]] "[[Easter eggs#Jeb sheep|jeb_]]" causes its wool to fade between the dye colors, producing a rainbow effect. The [[wool]] that drops when the sheep is [[shear]]ed or killed is the original color of the sheep before the sheep was named.
* Naming a [[rabbit]] "[[Rabbit#Toast|Toast]]" causes it to have a special memorial skin of user xyzen420's girlfriend's [http://www.reddit.com/r/minecraftsuggestions/comments/27hjog/to_themogminer_my_bunny_is_missing_please_help_me/ missing rabbit].
* Naming a [[vindicator]] "Johnny" causes it to be aggressive and attack all [[mob]]s including the wither (except [[ghast]]s and other [[illager]]s). The hostility even extends to [[Ravager|ravagers]] in [[Java Edition|''Java Edition'']], as the "Johnny" vindicator can also attack the ravager while it's riding it.

* A stack of up to 64 name tags can be renamed at once. The cost is 1 [[experience]] level per stack, regardless of how many name tags were stacked.
* To name a [[mob]] “Name Tag” the player must give the name tag a random name, then rename it back to “Name Tag”.
* A [[villager]] with a name tag turned into a [[zombie villager]] by a [[zombie]] with a name tag does not despawn, but a villager with a name tag turned into a zombie by a zombie without a name tag does despawn.
* It is impossible to have a rainbow [[sheep]] upside-down, because it is impossible for it to be named “Jeb_” and “Dinnerbone” at the same time.

A '''melon slice'''{{efn|Known as '''Melon Slice''' {{in|java}} and '''Melon''' {{in|bedrock}}.}} is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Block loot ===

{{see also|Tutorials/Pumpkin and melon farming|title1 = Pumpkin and melon farming}}

Melon slices can be obtained by breaking (harvesting) [[melon]]s using any [[tool]] or by hand. [[Axe]]s, followed by [[sword]]s, are the fastest tools for harvesting melons.  A melon drops 3–7 melon slices, when broken; by hand, using a [[tool]], or after being broken by the movement of a [[piston]], with an average of 4.64 slices per melon.

Breaking a melon with a tool enchanted with [[Fortune]] increases the potential number of drops by 1 slice per level, up to a maximum of 9 slices.

== Usage ==

=== Food ===
{{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management|title1=Hunger management}}

To eat a melon slice, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|2}} [[hunger]] and 1.2 hunger 
[[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Composting ===
Placing a melon slice into a [[composter]] has a 50% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

'''Bookshelves''' are [[blocks]] that improve [[enchanting|enchantments]] applied with an [[enchanting table]] when placed around one, up to a maximum of fifteen bookshelves, at the expense of [[Enchanting/Levels|level]] requirement.

== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Bookshelves can generate in village libraries and sometimes village houses.

[[Stronghold]]s may contain up to two libraries, each of which may be single-level or have an upper balcony. These feature some bookshelves arranged in pillars, and more bookshelves arranged in pillars in the walls. Single-level libraries contain 161 bookshelves, while libraries with balconies contain 233.

Bookshelves also naturally generate in certain [[woodland mansion]] rooms.

=== Breaking ===
Bookshelves can be broken fairly easily by hand, but can be broken faster by using an [[axe]]. In either case, they drop 3 books when broken, allowing the reconstruction of the bookshelf with the addition of six wood planks. When broken by an item that is [[enchanted]] with [[Silk Touch]], a bookshelf drops itself.

=== Trading ===
Novice-level librarian [[Villager|villagers]] have a 50% chance to sell 1 bookshelf for 9 [[Emerald|emeralds]] as part of their trades.{{only|bedrock}}

Novice-level librarian villagers have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to sell 1 bookshelf for 9 emeralds.{{only|java}}

== Usage ==
=== Enchanting ===
{{main|Enchantment mechanics#Bookshelf placement}}

If an [[enchanting table]] is placed near a bookshelf, glyph [[particles]] fly from the bookshelf toward the enchanting table. Having bookshelves in the proper position near the table allows the table to apply higher-level enchantments.

=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}

=== Fuel ===
Bookshelves can be used as a [[fuel]] in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per block.

=== Villager ===
Librarian [[villager]]s can interact with bookshelves.

=== Note Blocks ===
Bookshelf can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass" sounds.

A '''milk bucket'''{{fn|Known as '''Milk Bucket''' {{in|java}} and '''Milk''' {{in|bedrock}}.}} is a [[drink]] obtained from {{Control|use|text=using}} a [[bucket]] on [[cow]]s, [[mooshroom]]s and [[goat]]s that can be consumed to clear all [[Effect|effects]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Harvesting ===
Milk buckets can be obtained from [[cow]]s, [[mooshroom]]s, and [[goat]]s by pressing {{control|use}} while looking at them with an empty [[bucket]].

=== Mob loot ===
A milk bucket has a chance of dropping from a [[wandering trader]], if the trader is killed while holding it.{{only|java}}

== Usage ==

Holding {{control|use}} with a milk bucket starts the drinking sound and animation. {{IN|java}}, the animation is shown only in first-person camera mode.

When consumed, milk immediately removes all status [[effect]]s from the [[player]]. [[Fire]] is not a status effect; therefore, drinking milk doesn't extinguish a burning player.

The benefits of area status effects granted by [[beacon]]s and [[Conduit Power|conduit power]] are restored almost immediately in Bedrock Edition and after a few seconds in ''Java Edition''.

{{Many images}}
A '''spawn egg'''<ref group=fn>Known as '''''<Mob>'' Spawn Egg''' {{in|java}} and '''Spawn ''<Mob>''''' {{in|bedrock}}, where ''<Mob>'' is the name of the mob it spawns.</ref> is an [[item]] used to spawn [[mobs]] directly.

== Obtaining ==
Spawn eggs can be obtained only in [[Creative]] mode or using [[commands]]. In Creative mode, the [[player]] can press {{control|pick block}} on an existing mob to obtain their respective egg. Spawn eggs are also available in the Creative inventory. There are 77 spawn eggs {{in|bedrock}} and 75 spawn eggs {{in|java}}.

== Usage ==

A spawn egg is used by pressing {{control|use}} on any surface (top, bottom, or side) with the egg. When used on a top surface, the egg's [[mob]] appears with its feet immediately adjacent to the surface, and its ambient sound is played.

Spawn eggs are not thrown (unlike normal [[egg]]s); the player must be within normal range of the block to use the spawn egg. Ocelot and all monster mobs (except [[shulker]]s, [[piglin]]s, [[hoglin]]s; and in Bedrock Edition, also include [[vindicators]], [[evoker]]s, [[zoglin]]s, [[piglin brute]]s) spawned while on Peaceful difficulty get created and immediately deleted from the world.

The surfaces of blocks are prioritized for spawning; if none are within reach, mobs can also be spawned in [[water]].

=== Dispensers ===
A spawn egg fired from a [[dispenser]] spawns the [[mob]] directly in front of the dispenser. The spawn egg is consumed when fired.

=== Baby mobs ===
If the [[player]] {{control|uses}} a spawn egg on the type of [[mob]] it spawns, and that mob has a baby form, the egg spawns a baby version of the mob. In mobs that can breed, the baby is created by breeding the clicked mob to itself. For instance, using a sheep spawn egg on a [[sheep]] makes a baby sheep with the same wool color.{{only|java}}

Other mobs such as [[evoker]]s, [[vindicator]]s, [[vex]]es, [[piglin brute]]s, [[ravager]]s, [[phantom]]s, [[skeleton]]s, [[pillager]]s, [[creeper]]s and [[wither skeleton]]s do not have a baby variant, so the egg still spawns an adult.

=== Monster spawners ===
All spawn eggs can also be {{Control|used}} on a [[monster spawner]] to change the [[mob]] the monster spawner spawns. {{IN|bedrock}}, spawn eggs for any of the fish mobs spawn them only if the monster spawner is waterlogged.

=== Renaming ===
A spawn egg can be renamed on an [[anvil]], and when used it spawns a [[mob]] with that name appearing over its head. The name can be seen only by aiming at the mob from four or fewer blocks away. This name also appears in [[death messages]] from the mob killing a [[player]]. If the player renames a spawn egg by the names described below, the mob appears described below. If the player renames a [[rabbit]] spawn egg "Toast", the secret skin of the rabbit appears when the egg is used. Naming a spawn egg "Dinnerbone" or "Grumm" causes the mob to appear upside down and show the given name above it. Renaming a [[vindicator]] "Johnny" causes it to act hostile to all mobs except for other illagers. Renaming a [[sheep]] "jeb_" makes the sheep's wool color cycle in a rainbow loop. This doesn't change the color of the wool the sheep drops. Renaming a spawn egg of a [[Hostile mob|hostile mob]] with an [[anvil]] and then spawning the hostile mob with the renamed spawn egg does not prevent the hostile mob from despawning, unlike using a [[Name Tag|name tag]] on the mob.

=== Survival mode ===
Mobs can be spawned with spawn eggs in [[Survival]] mode, but spawn eggs are [[Content inaccessible in Survival|not obtainable in Survival]] without cheats; they can be obtained only using the Creative menu or commands. Unlike in creative, spawn eggs are consumed when used in survival.

== List of spawn eggs ==
There is a spawn egg for almost every mob in the game; exceptions are listed below this table.
