Installing the Textures

If you want or need to provide your own textures, you have several options:
|
||||
|
||||
* If you're running the Overviewer on a server, you can still put the
|
||||
minecraft.jar file (not the launcher) into the correct location and the
|
||||
Overviewer will find and use it, thinking the client is installed, even if the
|
||||
rest of the client files are missing. On Linux, try a command like this::
|
||||
* If you're running the Overviewer on a server without the client, you can run
|
||||
the launcher to install the client, and Overviewer will use the textures from
|
||||
that.
|
||||
|
||||
* You can put the client jar in the correct place manually, from a computer that
|
||||
does have the client, to your server. The correct places are:
|
||||
|
||||
* For Linux: ``~/.minecraft/versions/<version>/<version>.jar``
|
||||
|
||||
wget -N http://s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftDownload/minecraft.jar -P ~/.minecraft/bin/
|
||||
* For Mac: ``~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/versions/<version>/<version>.jar``
|
||||
|
||||
* For Windows: ``%APPDATA%/.minecraft/versions/<version>/<version>.jar``
|
||||
|
||||
* You can manually extract the textures folder from minecraft.jar or your favorite
|
||||
texture pack. If you've built the Overviewer from source or are using the
|
||||
windows exe, place the folder in the same directory as overviewer.py or
|
||||
overviewer.exe.
|
||||
* You can take the client jar from a computer that has the client installed, or
|
||||
take a resource pack from a third party that contains textures, and specify it
|
||||
with the :ref:`texturepath<option_texturepath>` option.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
Unfortunately we no longer have an easy wget command to run that will
|
||||
download the official minecraft textures. The launcher is the only way to
|
||||
download the official textures until we can figure out where they're coming
|
||||
from.
|
||||
|
||||
* Specify any texture pack you want with the
|
||||
:ref:`texturepath<option_texturepath>` option.
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
Overviewer will only search for installed client *release* versions, not
|
||||
snapshots. If you want to use a snapshot client jar for the textures,
|
||||
you must specify it manually with the :ref:`texturepath<option_texturepath>`
|
||||
option.
