I have some time and I decided to help some of you guys out! So I am making a written tutorial on how to get Rei's Minimap and optifine (for the fun of it). The Reason I am doing it is because if you press 'x' while having Rei's minimap it comes up large, if you zoom out it will be a lot easier to find builds that you can possible reave! Ok let's get started: Step 1: Your going to need to get 'Magic Launcher'. Don't worry no viruses. Download the one according to your type of computer so if you use a 'Windows' download the Windows one . Link to Magic Launcher <--- Click him! Step 2: Download Modloader! Again no viruses Link to ModLoader <--- Click her! Step 3: Now Download Rei's minimap... A lot of downloading Link to Rei's Minimap <--- Click the sheman! [Alternative link if that doesn't work: Here, Click the [1.6.2] one] Step 4: Download Optifine, haha I could just lol right now . Link to Optifine <--- Click "that" [Alternative link here choose the Optifine 1.6.2 HD U B4 ] Step 5: Open 'Magic Launcher'. Step 6: Above 'Options' there is a button that says 'Setup'. Click it. Step 7: Click on 'Enviroment' and make sure it is set to 1.6.2 . Step 8: Click 'Add' then locate your ModLoader.zip you downloaded earlier. Double click it, it should send you back to the original 'Setup' page. Modloader.zip's status should say "OK". Step 9: Then do the same with Optifine and Rei's minimap make sure you put Optifine in first. So the order should be: ModLoader.zip|???|OK OptiFine_1.6.2_HD_U_B4.zip|???|OK [1.6.2]ReiMinimap_v3.4_01.zip|???|OK Step 10: After that click 'Ok' at the bottom of the 'Setup' page and then put your details in and 'Login and Enjoy!! Be sure to use 'Magic Launcher' if you want to continue using the mods if you use the normal Launcher it won't work. Thanks for reading! Hope it helped! If you have any problems please comment and I'll see if I can help. Thank you ~Fyn
Good job on the guide, but it'd be better if you didn't use that bold font, it kinda hurts my eyes reading it
I know for some people even getting these files and installing them properly can be a pain in the butt. I made a mod-pack that has rei's, optifine, and tabby chat all without needing mod loader or any other mod style. If anyone is interested I can post the link and give the easy instructions. The link I can provide is in a .zip format so no need for winrar or anything special.
There are easier ways. Try this not sure if it works. Use regular launcher. Install forge. Drag the mods in the mod folder. Open the launcher and play with the forge profile ??? Profit
My little pack wouldn't require installing anything. Just copying the folder you unzip to your versions folder which is inside your .mincraft folder. Then with minecraft launcher make a new profile and use the 'version' selector to choose the version named after the folder you copied.
