The actual developer of this software for Mac is Mojang. Minecraft for Mac is included in Games. Our antivirus check shows that this Mac download is malware free. The file size of the latest downloadable setup file is 1.7 MB. The program is sometimes distributed under different names, such as 'Minecraft 2', 'Minecraft 3', 'Minecraft copy 99'. However, if you're using a different launcher for the client (for example, if your server is FTB or Technic, the client files are stored elsewhere so that vanilla Minecraft is left intact and unmodded), the minecraft folder will be in a different location, so you can't simply go directly to.

.minecraft file hierarchy[edit]
Use of a resource pack can be forced by naming its zip file to
resources.zip
and placing it in the root folder of the world save.[1] This feature is single-player only;[2] however, there is another way for servers to ask clients if they want to use the server resource pack.For windows OS and linux, the contents of
nativelog.txt
and nativeUpdaterLog.txt
can be found within launcher_log.txt
when applicable (i.e. the contents ofnativeUpdaterLog.txt
will only be present in latest_log.txt
after the launcher is updated / launched for the first time).History[edit]
