0.1 was the first major launcher version released on April 18, 2013, replacing the old launcher used since Beta for 1.6.1.
Changes[]
- .minecraft directory structure is changed:
- "assets" folder; stores resources such as language packs and sounds.
- All music discs now use .ogg format instead of .mus format.
- "library" folder; stores Java libraries such as LWJGL and jinput.jar.
- "versions" folder; there are file "versions.json" (meta data) and folders that stores minecraft.jar for each versions (but its name is same as its version. e.g. for 13w16a, "versions/13w16a/13w16a.jar").
- "assets" folder; stores resources such as language packs and sounds.
- Libraries and minecraft.jar are now separate.
