self-reminder to add the Jenkins configuration to this repository

Suggestion

it would be nice to have the ability to download mods from modrinth and curseforge directly through the launcher and auto updating them.

Peterix always said that this feature is useless because "you can do that on your browser"

Benefit

It would make everything better and simpler. also it would make simpler to transition for people that previously used gdlauncher or curseforge

This suggestion is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

Since upstream included this critical regression in 0.6.14 and refused to fix it, I think that issue would be a good candidate to fix in this fork. Logging used to log to the right folders but that broke somewhere between 0.6.13 and 0.6.14 as indicated in the upstream issue.

This suggestion is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

After using GDlauncher and curseforge for a bit I found it sets the ram for modpacks to fairly reasonable amounts. PolyMC sets and does not automatically adjust from the 1gb default ram. Most modpacks require upwards of 4gb of dedicated ram and having a way for PolyMC to detect that would be highly beneficial.

This is very important, since project can get sabotaged by multimc metadata, and also this will allow to work on better ARM support

The project should include a proper license file that includes all the terms of the GPL. Most other FOSS projects have this included.

Your LICENSE file currently contains the text of GPLv1, which is old, and you should use GPLv3 instead. You should switch the license now before this project gets big and has a lot of contributors, because after that, switching a license would be pretty hard.

From what I am aware the five is a continuation from multimc 5 which makes sense however it feels very unesscesary since it doesnt serve much meaning for PolyMC

Role

to use MS auth on non-official builds

Suggestion

provide a UI (such as a text input box) for a custom Client ID to use at runtime instead of a compiled one

Benefit

so that a PolyMC compiled and distributed by a distro can have the MS auth feature complied in without actually distributing the client ID. Let the user to register an ID from microsoft and use it.

Description of bug

The PolyMC icon should display, but the generic Wayland icon is displayed instead.

Steps to reproduce

Open PolyMC under a Wayland environment.

Suspected cause

It seems as though notepadqq had the same problem at one point. Specifically due to this:

On X11 the applications exported the window icon as pixmap data. This is no longer possible on Wayland. Instead the compositor maps the window icon from the desktop file and the application announces the desktop file for a window. In Qt this is done by using the reverse domain name combined with the binary name. The domain name is set with KAboutData and defaults to “kde.org”. So for example in the case of kate the desktop file should be called “org.kde.kate.desktop”. So please fix the naming of your desktop files. If you want to test please be aware that this requires Qt 5.5 to work properly.

https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2015/07/porting-qt-applications-to-wayland/

The fix seems simple enough, will try to open a pull request when I have some time.

Mumble has a similar issue, but I wasn't able to fix it the same way the notepadqq guys did. I think the way it's packaged might also affect this.

This issue is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my bug.

Upon launching of an instance:

• Check the Java version being used.
• If the Minecraft version supports it, continue.
• Otherwise:
  • Open a dialog saying that the Java version is not supported.
  • The user may optionally continue on for debugging or experimentation purposes.

MultiMC's support channel is probably 80% people using the wrong Java version. This would fix that.

Role

making lots of instances

Suggestion

I would like there to be an option to change the default icon from the standard grass icon. It would just let the user select an icon from the list to set as the default.

Benefit

So users can have a new default look without having to spend an extra 3 seconds changing the icon manually every time they make a new instance.

This suggestion is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

Preamble

I own many Minecraft accounts. Some are from the time they were ten bucks during alpha, some were bought in a physical store where you buy a piece of plastic with a code on it. I am not interested in playing "cracked" Minecraft for free. I am only interested in the officially supported and blessed offline mode.

Offline Mode

The vanilla Minecraft server includes an offline mode. If this mode is selected the server does not authenticate connecting players through the Mojang account system and allows any compatible client to connect. The existence of this mode proves that offline mode servers and the accompanying offline mode clients are a officially supported use-case.

(Dis)Advantages of Offline Mode

The big advantage of offline mode is that players may choose any name they desire. For example just "firstname" instead of "Xx_firstname420_xX". But offline mode is not suitable for public servers - it makes administrating them impossible because kicks and bans cannot be enforced.

Private servers don't have this problem though. If you just want to run a small server with people that all know and trust each other the advantage of choosing any name far outweighs the non-relevant disadvantage of not being able to kick and ban players.

Possible Risks

Some may argue that supporting offline mode is the same as supporting "cracked" or "pirated" Minecraft. Since Mojang themselves explicitly support offline mode it is clear that this is not the case.

But Mojang, which is now part of Microsoft (aka M$), may at any point decide to drop support for offline mode and treat any launcher that supports it as a tool for piracy. If that should happen they have three options:

• Politely ask to remove offline mode support (in my opinion the most likely outcome, as they have shown to support the community even while being part of Microsoft, for example by releasing the obfuscation maps)
• Revoke the PolyMC API key (which could be reinstated after implementing the requested changes, it is also easy to create a new key for a new version without offline mode support)
• Take down the PolyMC repository (GitHub is also part of Microsoft, they can do whatever they want - yet projects such as AfoninZ's fork of MultiMC which are explicitly intended for piracy are left untouched...)

So, if Mojang decides to drop support for offline mode and then if they decide to go after launchers that support offline mode and then if they choose to be dicks about it PolyMC might have a problem for a bit. A problem that can be resolved amicably to the satisfaction of all sides (except of course players that enjoy offline mode on private servers).

My conclusion is that offline mode should be supported. Many non-pirate players such as myself have legitimate use for it.

Role

playing 1.17 and onward

Suggestion

newer minecraft versions default to java 17 reducing launch issues

Benefit

currently you have to change your java version manually to launch 1.17. automatically selecting the latest java will help to remedy this.

This suggestion is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

Currently PolyMC users have to manually change java version for any new version of minecraft this is complicated especially for new users. Having the java version automatically switch to java 16 and warning the user if they dont have it installed will reduce confusion. Hopfully if #7 is completed there will be a way to install java 17 automatically after the warning or already have it installed.

it wasn't ever enforced, but according to the spec https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html name should be like org.polymc.PolyMC
Also to make it easier I think icon should be too rDNS although the spec doesnt require that, because that way both icon and desktop file can be maintained in PolyMC and not in flathub.

Operating System

Windows

Description of bug

I expected there to be one PolyMC exe in the zip. Instead, there were two, which conflict on Windows. The lowercase one seems to work fine.

Steps to reproduce

Extract the MultiMC Win32 zip - observe that there is a file named PolyMC.exe, and one named polymc.exe. These are the same file on Windows/NTFS filesystem. Windows' built in zip extractor seems to pick the lowercase one.

Role

To update polymc

We should have a compile option like DLauncher_updater_enable which would add an update button which would download the latest platform build.

This suggestion is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

Again, this should be optional and a compile flag. For packages that are in repositories, like the RPM Copr, Flathub package and probably soon others, they should use their update channels, not the button. This only for manually installed packages.

I think it would be fine to open a download like MMC does. Or AppImage/windows could automatically install the thing when the button is clicked

AppStream offeres info about the app. This is useful for app stores (like gnome-software, if we make a repo with debs for example) and flatpak. This should be maintained in PolyMC instead of the flatpak

spec: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/index.html
should be installed just like the .desktop files by cmake, in /usr/share/metainfo/org.polymc.PolyMC.metainfo.xml
I made the thing in the flatpak repo, https://github.com/dada513/flathub/blob/org.polymc.PolyMC/org.polymc.PolyMC.metainfo.xml, however I have no idea how to add that to cmake.

Since PolyMC uses its own folder, I think on first launch if it finds a multimc install poly should ask whether or not the user wants to migrate their instances, this would theoretically could for mac and linux, but not windows since mmc/poly is portable on windows.

We have permanently settled with PolyMC as the name because I already registered the polymc.org domains. We have also temporarily settled with Ouroboros as our logo.

We have a working logo (thank you to @ZekeSmith), but if anyone has any objections/suggested changes please feel free to voice them.

Account login

Suggestion

after selecting your default language and java it should prompt the user to login into their account.

Benefit

Less confusion and better first time experience.

This suggestion is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

An issue I have found with multimc and by extent polymc is when new users first attempt to use polymc they have no idea how to login and attempt to use the application without an account causing issues.

This often causes a lot of lost users due to poor first experience assuming issue with the application. Having a prompt after setting language and java would be very benificial to new users.

During my move away from MultiMC I used GDLauncher https://github.com/gorilla-devs/GDLauncher and one thing I found better than MultiMC was that it manage its Java version itself, by downloading (and updating) on its own OpenJDK JRE 8 and 17.

This is in my opinion something PolyMC should definitely do, and would definitely makes deployment easier.

Role

So I can play on an M1 Mac (ARM device)

This suggestion is unique

• I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

Upstream (MultiMC) has made it very clear they do not intend to add support for LWJGL 3.3.0 until Mojang switches their launcher to use it, LWJGL 3.3.0 is needed for Apple M1 Macs (and other ARM devices), also there's a problem with high polling keyboards where a large amount of key presses are lost/dropped, this is also fixed with 3.3.0.

I realize now that Poly still uses the meta api from multimc so this change may not be as easy as I thought.

This is the workaround guide to replace LWJGL 3.2.2 with 3.3.0 for Macs.
https://gist.github.com/nikhiljha/7313ac5553aafb1c8596b1fca0f4cdff
This is also useful as I mentioned if you have a high polling keyboard and you drop inputs.

Maybe another way this could be done is to expand the native system libraries checkbox to add a native lwjgl option.

EDIT:
Personally I think this is a good improvement, lots of arm users want to play minecraft, this would bring a lot of people to poly if the news spread that it supports arm.

Just something I noticed, this should probably say PolyMC instead

Creating a .pkg.tar.zst on Jenkins may be a good idea for Arch users who do not want to compile for themselves.

Suggestion

Have an option to launch Minecraft using an official launcher while using PolyMC as a modpack manager.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

CurseForge uses an official launcher to start the game and never asks for your Minecraft credentials. While it presents itself only as a mod and pack manager it also makes much more sense security-wise. The disatvantage of Curse though is that it is not open source, it is a part of pretty much bloatware, and that you also need an Overwolf account.
Having a togglable option to launch through PolyMC or an official launcher would be a nice touch.

I play modded minecraft

Suggestion

Mods that are in a group can have an option to share worlds and resourcepacks

Benefit

Users can use the same world across different instances works well if similar instances are installed.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

This is an alternative solution to #71 and should help with importing from the official launcher in #41.

an optional shared group folder can be used to make sure all instances inside a group share the same resourcepacks, worlds etc This will work similarly to how official minecraft works where all folders are shared between versions with PolyMC it would require the selected instances to be in a group and for the "Shared directory" option for the group to be selected. This would also ease in the importing from the official launcher as they could be imported as a "Shared directory" group, then create instances in the group for the users installed versions and mods of the official launcher.
