Added:

  • Microsoft authentication is now supported through the -m argument for authentication-related commands, check README for more information (#13)
  • When omitting the --jvm argument, an official Java version is installed and run the game (distributed by Mojang)
  • Added a LICENSE, also added to the script header (#9)

Changed:

  • Command argument --work-dir is now available in the main command instead of start subcommand (#11)
  • Runtime binaries and authentication tokens are now stored in working directory (#11)
  • Fabric now support empty Minecraft version (to run the latest version) and version aliases like "release" or "snapshot"
  • Fixed issue when downloading assets or libraries with unknown size (#14)
  • Authentication database has been reworked to be more maintainable through versions and to support Microsoft authentication (#13)
  • Improved README and general documentation
  • The scripting package is no longer distributed as it need too much work to test against newer launcher versions, and is reversed for specific needs
