Are you still looking for beta testers for IC2?

I would love to help you out with Beta testing.

If anyone else deserves to be tester, its Greg.

~~a group of designated Beta-Testers~~ [We got 10, should be sufficient]

part of the main post is the reason I didn't apply, it seems like they aren't exactly looking for new testers

But i dont have the Time to do that, because i would need a third often used World in MC (Currently the 12w32a-World and the GregTower2), just to test the Version of IC², because Betaversions are most likely Part of the next MC-Updates, and not of the current Versions (and i also dont want to accidently corrupt my Worlds).

I use Minecraft Portable to keep completely separate versions of Minecraft without switching out .minecraft folders. For instance I have my private server pack, my SSP setup, and I downloaded one for 1.3.1 just for the fun of seeing whats in it. I have 3 shortcuts to the separate versions, and I can launch whichever one I'm wanting to play without switching anything. I love it, and for those of you who are also interested....

You and me both. Color me paranoid but I don't really like idea of a third party launcher.

He referred to batch files he wrote himself.
Actually it's not THAT hard to rename folders and call the right minecraft.exe...

Duh, knew exactly what he was talking about. I did the same exact thing when I found this trick way back when. Hence the comment about not trusting other launchers.

Code

set APPDATA=%cd%\a_modded
start javaw -Xms1024M -Xmx2048M -jar Minecraft.exe

"it's better" oh you're specific.

and no: i'm not using any "launcher" given they're all equally pointless to me and have a habit of getting in the way of what I want to do.
Should I really care about a "launcher" I could make my own.

kevindude · September 2, 2012 at 7:04 PM

I don't use any programs to switch, I just have a desktop screen full of .minecraft folders!
( I'm so hardcore )
