I've just created a new server hosted from my website. I'd really like some input to streamline the client setup process if anyone has some knowledge in this area. Right now it works but it's a major pain to set up the first time. http://silverglassdragon.com/minecraft.html Any other advice anyone can give me is much appreciated.
I know LordRedstone has played with sk's launcher since its open-source. But me personally, I am total java noob. I have recently started to learn although that needs to fit around college too (and playing games )
I find the best way to figure out how to do something is to play with something similar. I'd check out the source code for SK's launcher, assuming you have at least intermediate code comprehension skills.
I have been messing around with SK's launcher as path says, and one thing I have found is that it's a pain to get Forge to work properly. I might be able to help a bit though. Also, can I redesign your website? It needs an overhaul :3
One thing you might want to use is TechnicLauncher's TechnicSolder. I have used it a few times, and it's quite easy to add mods and things, although it takes a while to set up. I can help you with this though.
Any help at all is appreciated, my computer knowledge seems to be a little too focused into a few areas, I'm working on that but it goes faster if someone is giving you pointers. XD That would be awesome to get some help on the website... I've just been getting back into all this and my HTML/CSS skills are very rusty.
