How to setup Minecraft 1.12.1 on Raspberry Pi 3 [now obsolete and replaced with a successor]

[Xynus]

Ok, so 1.12.1 now works, but when I try to change the cp line to 1.12.2 optifine, it gives me this instead

I don't quite understand, as 1.12.1 optifine works perfectly fine

Did you re-create the class path according to the last paragraph of the tutorial 'If you want to attempt getting a new version of Minecraft working :' ?

[Nivek73]

Is it possible to run an older version (alpha/beta) of Minecraft and would that be easier on the CPU?

[rpiMike]

Yes, should be possible. Don't know if it would be easier on CPU.

[Fabian42]

I'm trying to update to the latest snapshot (17w50a). The instructions say: "copy this path list until ‘ net.minecraft.launchwrapper.Launch’", but there is no "net.minecraft.launchwrapper.Launch" in the path list. I've tried a few different things, but in the launchwrapper folder there isn't even one for 1.13. How do I update then?

[rpiMike]

Microsoft have changed a lot of things in the new version of Minecraft, including the use of lwjgl3 - which is not yet supported on the Pi. I don't know if we will be able to get the new version working on the Pi.

[Opious]

I've tried absoulty everthing to try to get this to work on my rasberry pi 3 and this is was I get when i try and run it.

Is there something Im doing wrong if so please reply

Are you using Raspbian Stretch with Desktop ? Did you get glxgears running at about 60fps ? When installing Minecraft did you 'edit profile' and select use release - 'release 1.12.1', then 'save profile' ?

[WillBoxGaming1]

WHAT HAPPENED TO MY PI?!!
I installed Berryboot. Once I loaded your Full KMS driver my PI now boots directly from the Raspbian image, Berryboot is gone! Also, my screen resolution is messed up again and I cant change it since the only choice I have now is: Default monitor prefered resolution.

BerryBoot has known issues with OpenGL. You need to disable it in order to boot into BerryBoot. Comment out

Code: Select all

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d

under

Code: Select all

/boot/config.txt

, by adding a # infront of it, but do note this will subsequently disable OpenGL, and you will need to uncomment the line in order to use OpenGL.

[passedoutsober]

i guess 1.12.2 is still not working on the pi 3? Im just a minecraft dad trying to get my 5 year old back up on minecraft realms. Any help would be appreciated.

[rpiMike]

Yes, it works. There is a link to a new script in the thread:

viewtopic.php?f=78&t=186547&start=75#p1216113

Requires OptiFine-1.12.2_HD_U_C5.jar

[Luigi3711]

I am at the bit where you have to install optifine via the optifine installer. Whenever I click install, it says that Minecraft 1.12.1 is not found and I have to start the version manually.
I tried to change the directory from .minecraft to Minecraft, but it does not seem to work

can anyone help?

[rpiMike]

Did you complete step 7 Run Launcher, including editing the profile and selecting release 1.12.1, save profile, play game ?

[Luigi3711]

NVM it works thank you

[Luigi3711]

I want to use the OpenGL driver to speed up the performance. I am using a pi 3. I have tried to use OpenGL before but it leads me to a black screen each time I boot. Are there any suggestions to enable OpenGL correctly so that I can boost the performance of Minecraft

if anyone has any tips, it would be very helpful.

[rpiMike]

Are you running the latest Raspbian Stretch ? What screen ?, resolution?, via hdmi? What PSU and spec ? Are you using a boot loader like berryboot?

I'm using a Samsung TV via good quality hdmi cable at 1920x1080 and the official 5.1V 2.5Amp 18AWG cable PSU.

[Luigi3711]

I am running NOOBS 11-29-2017 using only raspbian, although I have done sudo apt-get update & upgrade. I am using a Gateway monitor with the resolution 1920x1080 through an HDMI cable connection.

[rpiMike]

What power supply are you using ? Do you get the lightning bolt (low voltage) ?

[Luigi3711]

I am using the power supply supplied to me by Canakit. I get the lightning bolt signal (low voltage) sometimes. I usually see this at boot when the kernel is loading, and when I am plugging in external hardware such as a USB cam and external hard drives.

[rpiMike]

Sounds like your power supply isn't sufficient - probably why the GL driver isn't working - GPU requires more power. I'd recommend the official 5.1V 2.5Amp 18Awg cable power supply. https://www.modmypi.com/raspberry-pi/po ... 2.5a-black

[daknus]

Hello!

I tried this method, and it worked perfectly, although I found an improvement: The GL Driver can be set to fake KMS if your display doesn't support full KMS or you want a permanent screen resolution, and it will work just fine.

I have tried installing Forge for 1.12.2, with semi-successful results. The game launches properly, but when I generate a world, it crashes, and when I open an existing world, it hangs my Pi. I will continue experimenting and maybe someday modded Minecraft will run on a Raspberry Pi

Thank you for the tutorial.

Edit:
I took a peek at the fml-client-latest.log file and found this:

I think it might not be possible to run Forge on a Pi. I will keep trying though.

[rpiMike]

Some have got forge working - see page 4 of this thread - did you change the tweak class ?

[MinecraftTom16]

I´m just scared if it will work on my screen or not; is it stable even with a hdmi to vga adapter? I am inexperienced in headless connecting, I don´t know how to use ssh

[rpiMike]

The issue will be whether the GL Driver works with your setup. Have you got a spare sd card that you can use to test? Alternatively as long as you have another computer that can read the boot partition of your sd card, you can use that to edit the boot/config.txt file to turn the GL driver off assuming it failed.
