I downloaded optifine and 7-zip, extracted the .jar file for minecraft, deleted the META-INF folder, and un-zipped optifine, but when I open minecraft, I am stuck on the updating screen which normally flashes up briefly, only it was at full and not taking me to the main menu. Help, anybody?
| | |
The only thing is, I am having trouble even getting optifine to work. I force-updated and got the downloading screen to vanish, but now the mods will not work even though META-INF is gone. If I could have step-by-step directions, I would be happy to use optifine and MultiMC.
Edit: It seems like whenever I delete the META-INF folder, the game becomes obsolete.

This happened to me. Right now all the mods are probally updating, even though optifine says 1.5.2. Also, when you click force update, it basically deletes ur minecraft.jar and puts in a clean, new one.

First do a update so you have a fresh new Minecraft 1.5.2 but save your "save" folder that have your worlds in.
First install download modloader for 1.5.2
Modloader Installation;
Windows: 1) Open up %appdata%, if you don't know how to do this, start>run, then type in %appdata%
2) Browse to .minecraft/bin
3) Open up minecraft.jar with WinRAR or 7zip.
4) Drag and drop the necessary files into the jar.
5) Delete the META-INF folder in the jar.
6) Run Minecraft, enjoy!
For Macintosh;
1) Go to Applications>Utilities and open terminal.
2) Type in the following, line by line:
cd ~
mkdir mctmp
cd mctmp
jar xf ~/Library/Application\ Support/minecraft/bin/minecraft.jar
3) Outside of terminal, copy all the files and folders into the mctmp directory.
4) Back inside terminal, type in the following:
rm META-INF/MOJANG_C.*
jar uf ~/Library/Application\ Support/minecraft/bin/minecraft.jar ./
cd ..
rm -rf mctmp
5) Run Minecraft, enjoy!
Next find the instruction for installing the latest optifine for 1.5.2 and follow it to the letter.
This is just one way of doing things and others will be more then happy to suggest another.

Is there a certain format the mod must be in? ZIP, regular file? etc.

Did u click on optifine and copy everything inside and drag everything into minecraft.jar
| | |
I copied optifine, put it all into a folder, and then put that folder into the minecraft.jar. I did this because I figured it should be in an unzipped folder.
Edit: Just tried it, got the same result of being stuck on the loading screen. Is my derp-computer just not strong enough to take on a mod?
| |  |
Let me simplify it for you, get magic launcher, add in the optifine zip after mod loader, and done, no more issues. Make sure you have a fresh minecraft.jar. Load all your mods zip files into magic launcher and be done with it without all the derpiness of editing the jar file...

No spooky start>run or creepy terminals to deal with. Listen to wolftone1916 instead.

It worked! Thanks, wolftone.
