moonlight-client

A casual 1.8 Minecraft client with optifine.

The client was developed with MCP 9.10 and OptiFine 1.8 HD U H6, using Eclipse 2023-09 (4.29.0).

Prerequisites

• Have Java Development Kit (JDK) 8 installed (specifically: jdk-8u431)
  • CEU Mirror (direct download, for Windows)
  • Official download, from Oracle, requires login, specific version might not be there anymore
• Have Eclipse IDE for Java developers installed (any version will do)
  • CEU Mirror (direct download, for Windows)
  • Official download, from Eclipse.org

Debugging the client

Do the following steps to make the client Eclipse-ready:

1. Clone the repository
2. Open Eclipse and choose the freshly cloned repo as a workspace with the /src/eclipse path after the project'sfolder
3. Import the Client project
4. Import the Client debug launch configuration
5. You should be able to start debugging

If you want to, you can import the Server project and launch option as well, but I've never tested & used those, so they can contain build & other errors. If you've already imported the project by accident, then just delete it.
