Ok, so after updating my mod I've received 3 or 4 private messages asking how I managed to get Modloader working with MCP and Minecraft 1.6.1. I know, some of you may suggest using Forge, but I use Modloader, as do many others, and so I'm going to post a quick tutorial on how to setup MCP to work with 1.6.

First, Launch Minecraft and make sure you have downloaded 1.6.1

Next, Double-click on decompile.bat inside your MCP folder.

Allow this to run, and this will copy over all files required from your .minecraft folder

Once complete, delete the "src" folder.

Open the "Jars" folder, and inside open the "Versions" folder

Open the 1.6.1 folder, and open the 1.6.1.jar with WinRar/7zip

Install Modloader and delete META-INF

Decompile again

Follow the fixes in the third comment here:

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/187 ... modloader/

You are now ready to mod!

To install a mod in 1.6.1

Go to %Appdata%

Open the .minecraft folder

Scroll down to versions.

Copy the 1.6.1 folder inside of versions and rename it to something like 1.6.1Mods

Open the folder, and rename 1.6.1.jar and 1.6.1.json to whatever you called the folder.

Open the .json, and find the line with id: "1.6.1". Change it to the name of the folder.

Install your mods into the .jar, or however the mod is installed.

Launch Minecraft and click edit profile, then switch to your newly made profile.

Finished.

The problem is that 1.6.2 uses LWJGL 2.9.0, but MCP is looking for 2.9.1. We'll have to wait for MCP to fix it.

Strange, because Minecraft uses LWJGL 2.9.0, as 2.9.1 is a development version at the moment. Looks like MCP 1.6.2 might have a bug in it. Try renaming one of the 2.9.0 folders to "2.9.1-nightly-20130708-debug3" and see if it fixes. The problem is that Minecraft uses 2.9.0 and MCP is looking for version 2.9.1, which is a test build.

I already tried that. I also tried renaming the jar itself, but nothing works. I'm going to try using a development version of MCP. I think that the pre release must've used that library, but then they swapped back. If you read the MCP notice, it says "We know that 1.6.2 isn't relased yet, but we'll do it anyways."

I have the same problem too.

> Checking libraries...
Copying library lwjgl-platform... Error copying library org.lwjgl.lwjgl:lwjgl-platform:2.9.1-nightly-20130708-debug3

This is what ".minecraft\libraries\org\lwjgl\lwjgl\lwjgl-platform" folder looks like

I've tried deleting it and letting Minecraft update it itself, but it still doesn't work. I can see that the problem is that the library it provides is 2.9.0, but MCP calls for 2.9.1. Is there any way to fix this?

your LWJGL is missing/corrupt. In your .minecraft find the LWJGL jar file located within. You'll have to do a tad bit of searching, once found. Delete it. Then launch minecraft and it will reinstall it

I've never encountered that error before - but looking around on Google has led me to believe that it's a problem with MCP - You might just have to wait it out.

MCP 803 is for 1.6.2 - But MCP don't actually have anything to fix...The decompile function makes it easier for non-Modloader users, and Forge has it's own installer. I guess it just makes it slightly more difficult for Modloader users, so hopefully they add the ability to choose profiles. The fixes I linked to are for Modloader, so I guess that needs to be fixed, but overall not too important.
