MultiMCManage Minecraft instances with ease

This release contains some bugfixes, general UI polish and the beginnings of direct modpack platform integrations.

Changelog

New or changed features

• MultiMC now has FTB integration:

  • Official and third-party modpacks work.
  • Codes for private modpacks are not implemented yet.

• Version lists now show release dates where available.

• New instance dialog:

  • It has been completely overhauled and now uses the same kind of paged dialog design as the rest of MultiMC.
  • Vanilla version list now has a filter for version types.
  • FTB integration gets a page here, along with zip import and vanilla.
  • Technic integration is a definite possibility in the future.
  • If there is a decent way to list Twitch modpacks, proper Twitch modpack integration is a possibility too.
  • There still is no modpack updating. Much more work is needed for that.

• Other Logs page:

  • Now has a search bar, just like the main log page.
  • GH-604: Uses the same font settings as the main log.

• Icon selection dialog now has a button for opening the icons folder.

• MultiMC now has a shinier, updated logo.

• GH-2150: Custom commands have been split from the java settings into a new page.

  The use of variables in custom commands is now better documented. The label shows that they need to be prefixed by $.

• Player name is no longer censored in logs.

• MultiMC now probes the system for the name of the linux distribution as part of analytics. This will be used to focus future packaging efforts.

• Secret cheat code has been added… What does it do?

Bugfixes

• VisualVM integration now works when VisualVM is bundled inside the MultiMC folder (uses a relative path).
• When reinstalling a component, or changing a component version, the custom version is now removed first.

• GH-2134: Fix multiple issues with the skin upload:

  • When uploading a skin, the model selection now works correctly again.
  • When the new skin file is specified using the file:// URL scheme, it will now work correctly.

• GH-2143: Mojang services status display now reflects the current set of services.

• GH-2154: MultiMC now ignores the hidden flag of instance folders and they should show up correctly.

• When migrating Legacy instances, custom minecraft.jar will be preserved.
