Support Request: META-INF coming back at every launch

Hafuu · Oct 31st 2011

Hello,

I wanted to install the new version of IC (1.22) since a lot of the add-ons are now up to date. But, when I'm deleting the META-inf folder and I launch minecraft I get a black screen. So I go back in the .jar, and I see it had created a new META-INF folder!
I also tried to rename the folder, what previously worked (already had this issue), but even with renaming the folder it still comes back (recreates itself).

Is there a way to prevent this form happening?
I'm running Mac OS 10.7.2, 8gb RAM, 9600m, 2,53GHz C2D.

Thanks a lot,

Hafuu

Edit: Also tried to renames the files inside the folder and it just re-creates them.
I've done some research and found this , I'm not the only one with this problem. No solutions in that thread though.

Not entirely sure on the Mac install process, but I think Mac's love the META-INF folder.

Try something along the lines of TFC mod manager to install what you need to the JAR, then run MC, hopefully it'll work.

Sorry I can't be much more help, I'm not used to Macs.

remove meta, set file as read only.(this possible on mac)

The META-INF folder is nothing bad at all. It's Mojang's signature files inside it which cause issues (MOJANG_C.DSA and MOJANG_C.SF)
