Noggisoggi: Initial draft creation

Initial draft creation

New page

[[Category:Server internals]]
<div class="noexcerpt" style="border: solid #da373c; border-width: 0px 0px 0px 5px; background-color: #ffdddd; margin: 10px 0; padding: 10px; border-radius: 5px;">
⚠️ Disclaimer: Bedrock Edition cannot be used to join, and this guide is a W.I.P.</div>
There are a couple of methods to join [[AlphaPlace]]. Server addresses are <code>alphaplace.net</code> and <code>alpha.place</code>. 
You can use regular <code>b1.1_02</code> to join, or you can use modded <code>a1.2.6</code>.
For the latter version, {{user|Windows7Ultimate}} made a video guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVEXz7GcfAo
__TOC__
== JRE links ==
The [https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/download official launcher] comes with a JRE. 
For other launchers (or if you want to use a different Java binary), you can use the OpenJDK builds from either of these vendors:
* '''Azul Zulu''': [https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-8-lts&os=macos&architecture=x86-64-bit&package=jre#zulu https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-8-lts&package=jre#zulu]
* '''Adoptium Eclipse Temurin''': [https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=8 https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=8]

== MultiMC/PrismLauncher/Other forks ==
* '''MultiMC''': https://multimc.org
* '''PrismLauncher''': https://prismlauncher.org
The above launchers require you have to have an account, though there are a couple of forks that allow you to add an offline account. 
You can deviate at some parts of this guide if you want to use a different fix, or anything else. 
<hr />
# Install either of the aforementioned launchers ([https://multimc.org MultiMC] or [https://prismlauncher.org PrismLauncher] or what have you)
# Launch MultiMC (or fork), set up your account by clicking on the account selector in the top right corner, select {{button|Manage Accounts...}}, and then select {{button|Add Microsoft}}.
#* Or {{button|Add Offline}} if that option is available on the fork you use.
# Select {{button|Add Instance}}, and select <code>b1.1_02</code> as the version by enabling {{button|Betas}} and scroll through the list until you see it. Change the details to your liking and select {{button|OK}}.
# Right-click (or left-click; open context menu) the newly created instance, and select {{button|Edit}}, or select the same button on the sidebar after selecting the aforementioned instance.
# Go to: {{button|Settings}} -> Tick {{button|Java installation}} -> {{button|Auto-detect}} if you installed the JRE system wide.
#* If you downloaded the zip/tar archive, you simply extract it, select {{button|Browse}} in the instance settings, navigate to the extracted JRE -> <code>bin/java</code> and select that <code>java</code> file.
#* Under MS Windows, use <code>javaw.exe</code> instead.
# Launch the game via {{button|Launch}} and pray it works.

== Official launcher ==
This method isn't recommended and is just a last resort. Cracked users can't use this method either. 
By default, this launcher doesn't show old versions of the game before Release 1.0, and must be enabled in the settings. 
# Select the {{button|Settings}} tab, found in the bottom left corner.
# In the Enable {{button|Show Historical versions of Minecraft: Java Edition in the Launcher}} under ''Minecraft: Java Edition Settings'' in the {{button|General}} tab.
# Go back to the {{button|Minecraft: Java Edition}} tab on the sidebar, open the {{button|Installations}} tab and then select {{button|New Installation}}.
# Enter the desired name of the install, and then select <code>old_beta 1.1_02</code> in the version dropdown menu, then select {{button|Create}}.
# Click on the {{button|Minecraft: Java Edition}} tab on the sidebar again and select the installation you just made from the drop down menu and press {{button|Play}}.
