  • As far as I know, Minecraft itself is avaliable for download publicly, you don’t even need to patch it to play. You just need to supply it some fake account data and tell it to work offline.

    No official servers support, of course, but that’s about it.

    The funny thing is, this mechanism came from Mojang, and at this point they can’t even do anything about it. If they stop providing downloads without an account or implement some anti-piracy features, people will just use the latest official version and mod it. And it may be not even the latest one, there are tons of players on 1.7.10 and 1.12.2, just because modders love them.

    Sure, they can try and push their Bedrock version… But nobody is playing on that piece of crap.







  • I assume it creates some sort of save file in the current working directory?

    You may try changing the working directory via batch script, if you’re on Windows.

    Make a text file, name it something like launch.bat (the actual name may be whatever you want, just make sure you leave the extention .bat) Paste this there:

    @echo off
    cd /d "%~dp0"
    start "" "game.exe"
    

    Be sure to replace game.exe with your game’s .exe filename. Don’t delete any double quotes, they are important.

    Put this text file near .exe file of your game, and make a shortcut of it to your desktop. You may rename a shortcut and choose an icon from your game’s .exe file to make it pretty.

    After that just launch the shortcut as you normally would. If I’m correct, the game should create it’s .bin file in the script directory and not in your desktop.



  • I’m perfectly aware of what I’m talking about. He lost control of company’s shares to government-affilated people and they fired him. What an unpredictable turn of events. I don’t really care if it happend due to stupidity or malice, considering the amount of public stunts he pulled off at the time, I doubt you can call his course of action straightforward.

    Even when he was fired, they did it with his own resignment notice he submitted as April Fool’s joke. The guy is a literal clown, I have no idea why you’d entrust him with your data.


  • Probably not, if we’re speaking about the next adapter in the line. They both use 4 pins, and there are no active conversion in the adapter itself, it just connects the pins like this:

    USB ↔ PS/2
    +5V ↔ +5V
    D-  ↔ D
    D+  ↔ CLK
    GND ↔ GND
    

    So, as long as next adapter is not doing something funny with PS/2 signals, it should be ok for bare USB 2.0 connection.
