Better late than never.. I've updated the OP with new screenshots, two videos and some changelog info! ;-)

[1.6.2]

Hi rimrimat,

I downloaded the file without warnings/problems from ESET NOD32 Antivirus / MS Security Essentials.
I did notice a couple of things which i'll explain below:


After opening the zip archive i noticed the contents of a pre-installed cracked Minecraft, as it had some in-game screenshots, and client logs which are made when you launch the game.
(with this information you can state that the person whom uploaded it didn't bother about cleaning up his gamefiles ;-) )

Also, when navigating to .minecraft\versions\ i noticed a modded 1.6.2 jar,
whereas the filename of the zip states: Minecraft 1.6.4 Cracked with OptiFine & MiniMap

When i checked the exe file's properties however, i noticed a mention of simpleMC.net, so i visited that site.
Unfortunately i couldn't download the client there because you had to sign-up first and validate (or pay) using a Credit Card, in order to download the program...

I still wasn't sure if i could trust the exe so i did some googling on simpleMC and it found some results of torrents on TPB with the same cracked client, BUT those were all packaged differently i.e. they had a readme and a much bigger setup file.

The problem with these kind of things is that most of the time you don't know if you have the original files or ones someone has tampered with and perhaps added a backdoor/RAT or whatever.
With this said i'm not assuming that the client u've referred to shouldn't be trusted, but i would advise everyone to scan the contents (exe) on www.virustotal.com , www.jotti.org , http://www.virscan.org/ to make sure those don't come up with any virus reports (i haven't done this yet, but will soon).

When i noticed that the contents were differing from the other torrents i found, i felt the urge to notify/warn you people about my findings.

I'll now continue scanning the files and if everything looks OK i'll install this under a virtual machine with no internet.
Will report back ASAP and if everything turns out to be good, i'll edit/update my post accordingly.


EDIT:

(here are the scan-results)

- 0/48 @ https://www.virustotal.com/nl/file/aba66ed3edaa07aef4734c548480f27832fa816c486f95c40dd234f6d2bede6b/analysis/1380807659/

- 0/22  @ http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/scanresult/33b692fc730ec1578524dac23d41a8287c6cbeff

- 0/37 @ http://r.virscan.org/report/8e01b4d2281025b77029fd37d6ec2964.html


Now lets hope it's not a FUD (Fully UnDetectable) virus, because those exist as well
(FUD basically means that there is no known signature/pattern to detect/identify it as a virus, with or without heuristics enabled)

Thanks for your time/patience reading all this, and rimrimat too if the files appear to be clean! (which they do, atleast for now)



another EDIT: i actually gave up on this because i don't find it worth the effort to spend more time on something of which its obvious it has been tampered with.

If i find the time i'll verify http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/8966587/  It has a setup and the files were uploaded by someone named simpleMC

It looks very nice, except im not going to use mods :3 Im just here for the updated launcher cuz Sparamoule didnt update it to 1.2.1
Anyways, good job.

Also, include a list of mods, updates, and other stuff like in kaises topic of his own modded MC.

AAAND... You got some skills with batch..

Hey Michael

I plan on updating my post if i find the time.
I won't test all mods that are available (not using any mods myself), but i've already tested Forge and Optifine (not installed them on top of each other yet) and made a video on how to install Forge:

Thanks for the feedback!

Done.

Yay!

You don't need 1.2.1. 1.1.1 works fine for 1.6.4 as well, Launchers very rarely need updating (I've only ever changed Cracked launchers twice since Minecraft Alpha 1.3 or so.

Even though the latest updates to the launcher arent considered 'ground-breaking', they DO include useful/welcomed behind-the-scene (or call it: under-the-hood) fixes/optimisations

If you find it useful for your server, then consider downloading the dev build from Jenkins,
as those are updated more frequent and include many bug-fixes.

I've been using this for a while now and since i'm often very busy and not always in-game
or at the console, its nice to have the ability to see the in-game chat on TeamSpeak

(you have to enable this in the config first. By default you'll only see messages if someone does /ts chat <message>)

Good Luck & Have Fun!  (if you're planning to use it)

[ThisUserNameIsMine]

Are you on it now? =P

Well, i should go to bed really xD
Perhaps i'll visit you some time!

Oh, you should check the bukkit-plugin BukkitSpeak
Its a cool mod to use with Minecraft <-> TeamSpeak

Just don't read ThisUserNameIsMine's comments on there... (hint: )

Thanks! I also uploaded some screenshots

Oh, can you make it a 'sticky'? 

[copyitright's Updatable "cracked" Minecraft Launcher]

copyitright's Updatable "cracked" Minecraft Launcher
^{:: Play ALL Minecraft Versions! No Crack Needed/Always up-to-date! ::}

After a REALLY long time of absence i've decided to revive this topic with some major update info.

My launcher has gone through some massive makeovers (mostly behind-the-scene/under-the-hood changes).

I'll just quote the recent changelog info for everyone's convenience:

(02-11-2019 @ 19:42 CET) - *** DOWNLOAD LAUNCHER FROM WEBSITE TO UPDATE TO THIS VERSION ***

  * Resolved a returning notifications bug that slipped back into builds starting from 02092019-1542
    Users were getting UNABLE TO RETRIEVE UPDATE INFORMATION, even if they had notifications disabled

  * Updated Installer/Portable version on website to build 01112019-0055



  (01-11-2019 @ 00:55 CET)

  * Improved the Updater code by using two different DDNS addresses,
    instead of the VERY often unreachable host *.minecraftnoob.com

  * Resolved a minor (but perhaps annoying) inconvenience where previously signed in DEMO users
    were presented with a PLAY DEMO button, after having created/added a cracked player profile



(20-10-2019 @ 21:14 CEST)


  Hello again! Finally, the long awaited (sarcasm?) update is ready to be released to the public! Enjoy!


  * 'Auth (un)blocker' is no longer needed and has left the stage for 'HOSTS File Fixer' (an explanation is available inside the program)

  * 'Change Playername' also left, because now there's 'Add Player'!

  * Updated CURL to version 7.66.0

  * Many global script optimizations (reducing filesize of Launcher)

  * Updated Installer/Portable version on website to build 02092019-1542


    [AND THERE IS MORE]


    You are no longer required to register a free Mojang account, or to even (un)block the Auth server.

   


    I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE VERY EXCITED TO READ THIS


    But don't just take my word for it...

    Here is some actual (video) proof to see it for yourself

    (yes you dummy, you're supposed to click the word 'Here' in the sentence above...)

~> FEATURES <~

Best regards and happy Minecrafting,

[Yep, Skins can only ever work properly with a premium account.]

why skins aren't working ? 

I believe skins only work if you have premium? Hope I helped.

Yep, Skins can only ever work properly with a premium account.

Not true. When searching through the contents of the game's jar file, you'll find an URL that points to Mojang's skin/cape-server.
When changing this url and letting it point to your own fileserver, you'll be able to get an online skin/cape, instead of a local one.

To make it possible for more online players this requires a modification to the launcher, so that anyone can choose a playername they want.

But there's also another way to achieve this, and this method doesn't require you to modify/crack the official launcher.
The advantage of this is: (Theoretically) longer working versions, whereas cracked versions need to be updated (more often) ;-)

[- xAddict3Dx]

I've updated my launcher too and Mojang fixed Offline/LAN-play in 1.1.2 =)

Mine may not look pretty or impressive, but the only updates it needs are to ones improve my own launcher, since i don't need to crack Mojang's launcher for it.

So in theory it should work longer, unless Mojang (un)intentionally breaks it (it all depends on launcher_profiles.json).

If any of you (including Kaise) are interested in my version, search back for my previous post. The download-link should still work.

edit: if for some reason my post isn't tolerated, just let me know, as i've noticed the thread is about MCOpenLauncher 

[Now for something different:]

Hmm, interesting!

My 1.0.5 of Sparamoule's failed to work because it needed another update.

The 1.0.5 on here on the other hand, works!? (confused)

Did Sparamoule update his or did Kaise?

Its not that i find it important who cracked it, as long someone does it i'm happy (i also have premium btw)

I just want to know who did it, so that i can thank him, her or both! =P


Now for something different: I've managed to create a working 1.2.1 WITHOUT cracking the launcher!

If anyone wants to check it out, here's the download:  http://web.minecraftnoob.com


Inside the archive (zip) there's a a .bat script, an .exe, and unzip.exe

The .exe was created using WinRAR (self-extracting), but if you're sceptical or afraid to run it you may also choose to unpack the files using the extractor bat(ch)

(another way to check the contents is to right-click the exe and choosing 'Open with WinRAR' from the context menu)


Hopefully you all appreciate it! =)


edit: oh.. the most important files you'll need to play on pure LAN (i.e. offline) are:

- MC_Open_Launcher.jar (or Minecraft.jar + .minecraft\launcher.pack.lzma when using my version)
- the files under .minecraft\libraries\
- the game itself under.minecraft\versions\
- .minecraft\launcher_profiles.json

Of course you'll be missing in-game sounds and such, so .minecraft\Resources\ (<=1.5.2) or .minecraft\Assets\ (1.6=>) is also nice to have

When using my version, .minecraft\launcher.pack.lzma is needed because Minecraft.jar will try to download this file for 10 times (no matter if one already exists), and will fail if it can't find it.

What happens then is: launcher.pack.lzma > launcher.pack > launcher.jar, after which Mojang's launcher is executed (launcher.pack gets deleted afterwards)


Best regards,
- xAddict3Dx

[edit:]

If only Sparamoule cracked the launcher so that you could also play it on pure LAN (i.e. without an internet connection).
On start it contacts the server to retrieve a list with the current minecraft versions, but you're only able to choose a version when connected to the internet =/

Anywho: props to Sparamoule and Kaise123 for the share! =)

edit: You can play without internet if putting all the needed files together and running the jar using javaw incl. parameters

update: Unfortunately the latest snapshot 13w23a doesn't work with MCOpenLauncher 0.7, Mojang have updated theirs to 0.8.3 =(
