Maven MCP 1.8.9 is an updated version of MCP. It uses Maven, has a clean code structure, supports Linux and version control in your projects!
The code is split into two groups: Resources (assets, graphics, shaders etc.) and code.
Libraries are loaded from Maven.
- Clone the repository
- Let it setup and index (just wait)
- Specify project SDK to Java 8 It might not work with other versions of JDK
- Once it indexes, the project should be ready to go! :)
To build a working .jar file, which later can be put to /versions in MC folder, you just need to run mvn clean package command.
You can also use the Maven menu on the right side, or add a new run configuration, and run it from there (my favourite way).
Once the process is complete, artifacts will be in /target directory.
There's no requirement to delete MANIFEST from the jar before putting to MC folder.
To launch the client in the IDE, you need to execute Start.java, and specify working directory to ./test_run/.
An example run configuration.
Minecraft's directory will be ./test_run/. All saves, resource packs etc. will be there.
Nothing easier.
Move your existing java code to /src/main/java, and any resources i.e. shaders, fonts etc. to /src/main/resources.
If you added new libraries, make sure to add them to pom.xml, and you're set :D

May 1.8.9 survive!
