For instructions on setting up FTB for 1.5.2 see HERE
LATEST BUILD FOR 1.4.7 HERE
Installation Instructions for 1.5.2 or 1.4.7
The recommended way to install Minecrift for 1.5.2 or 1.4.7 is use the magic launcher, which is available for Windows, OSX, and Linux.
IMPORTANT: You'll need to download and install the MSVC++ 2010 redistributables if they aren't already installed (vcredist_x64.exe or vcredist_x86.exe if you are 64bit or 32bit respectively). (Windows Only)
- Download Optifine HD D3 (D5 has not been tested, but may work), but don't extract. Please click a few ad links or donate and get yourself an Optifine cloak, they do some great work.
Download the JRift.jar, Sixense.jar from the 1.5.2 link above.
Download the minecrift_classes.zip from either the 1.4.7 or 1.5.2 link, depending on the version of Minecraft you want to patch.
Open the Magic Launcher.
Click the 'Setup' configuration button.
Create a new Configuration and call it "minecrift" (or whatever you prefer)
Add these zips, in order:- * OptiFine_1.5.2_HD_U_D3.zip
* JRift.jar
* SixenseJava.jar (if you have a Razer Hydra you'd like to use)
* minecrift_1.0_beta_classes.zip
When satisfied, click 'OK' to Save the configuration.
From now on, just start Magic Launcher and use the "minecrift" configuration to play! - * OptiFine_1.5.2_HD_U_D3.zip
In addition, you will need to update LWJGL to the latest version. Older versions will probably not work.
Razer Hydra
Version 1.0 is the first to include full Razer Hydra support.
* OrientationTracker: If you don't have an Oculus Rift, you can use the left controler for head orientation (direction).
* PositionTracker: This makes a huge immersion difference. The Hydra can feed position data the game engine to allow you to look up, down, around corners, squat, and generally move around. Use one or two controllers attached to your head and adjust the offsets from your eye center on the VR Options.
* Controller: Use the right controller to turn the view left/right, move forward and backwards, place blocks, mine, select item, jump, sneak, access your inventory and navigate menus. The controls are currently hardcoded: (right controller)
Code: Select all
Joystick X: Turn left/right
Joystick Y: Move forward/back
1: Drop item
2: Jump
3: Select next left item (mousewheel up)
4: Select next right item (mousewheel down)
JOYSTICK: Sneak
Bumper: Place block/use item/interact (right mouse)
Trigger: Mine block (left mouse)
Start: Access Inventory
Code: Select all
Joystick: mouse up/down/left/right (don't use the actual mouse at the same time: known issue)
Trigger: Left Click
Bumper: Right Click
JOYSTICK: "Shift"
Joystick sensitivity can be set in VR Options.
