A fork of https://github.com/NickGenghar/make_minecraft_portable, but made in Python!
Having trouble making your Minecraft installation more portable? This tool will help you achieve that and more! Make Minecraft Portable, MMcP for short, is a simple program to manage Minecraft in a friendlier, more portable method, allowing for advance features such as custom installations (called instances), custom locations and others. Originally, this project was made in Windows Batch script (sadly lost the original) as a pet project. With this rewrite, it is now aimed to become friendlier towards the larger masses.
Currently, the following features are available:
- [Complete]: Launch the (official) Minecraft Launcher (logins are managed by the Minecraft Launcher, not MMcP).
- [Complete]: Create, modify and remove
instances. - [Planned]: Download and install community-created contents (resource packs, mods, shaders, etc.) via providers (Modrinth, CurseForge, etc.).
- [Planned]: Auto-launch Minecraft via MMcP.
- [Partial]: Export
instancesinto a compressed archive to be imported into other third-party launchers (Prism Launcher, Modrinth App, CurseForge App, etc.). - And many more! (Send ideas by creating a feature request, pull/merge request, etc.).
Prerequesteries:
- Python 3, if you do not have it installed you may download it here
- Git (Optional, but very helpful if you want to contribute code.)
Use the green Code button around the middle top-right, choose your appropriate download method.
Alternatively, with git, clone the project to a working directory, then move into it.
git clone https://github.com/UltimatePlayer97/MMcP-Python.git
cd MMcP-Python
in the MMcP-Python folder, open up a command prompt directing to this folder and run pip install -r requirements.txt, this will ensure all the modules needed for this project are installed.
Once you have entered the project folder, go into the src folder and run the main.py file.
For now, the program does not receives command-line input. Instead, it provides what's known as a Terminal User Interface, TUI for short. Using this TUI, the user then select
