In fact, each of the versions of Minecraft brought a lot of positive emotions to the fans of this game, since something interesting was necessarily added to the gameplay. New mobs appeared, blocks - or the old ones showed hitherto unknown properties. Version 1.6.2 is no exception in this regard.
Necessary
- - archiver
- - game installer
Instructions
Step 1
Choose 1.6.2 if you love horses and donkeys, want to tame them and adapt them to transport your inventory - for example, when moving from one play house to another. Cross these animals with each other to get unique breeds. Also try out new blocks (like painted clay). For a chance to take advantage of these and a number of other features, install Minecraft correctly.
Step 2
First, make sure you have Java installed on your computer. Without this software platform, the game will not start. Download the installation file of this program from the official portal of its manufacturer, but make sure that it matches the bitness of your system (32 or 64). Otherwise, Java will not work correctly, and along with it, Minecraft will start lagging, which will make the gameplay a torment. Enter in Runtime Parameters on the control panel of the program the values of the RAM that you want to allocate for the game, but indicate the numbers that do not exceed the total amount of RAM.
Step 3
Download the installer for Minecraft 1.6.2 from a trusted source. It is better to choose a licensed copy (by the way, do not forget to purchase the corresponding key from Mojang for this) - in it, according to experienced reviews, many bugs have been eliminated. Pirate launchers are good only because they are free, but they often function with errors.
Step 4
Run the installation file with the.exe extension - then the game will be in the required directory. During the installation process, when choosing a connection method, select Play offline for the unofficial version. In the case when you purchased a license, click on the inscription, where it is proposed to enter the gameplay under your username. Such nuances must be taken into account, otherwise you simply will not be able to enter Minecraft with a pirate launcher.
Step 5
If your installer is archived, open it with a special archiver program and transfer it to the directory where it should be. To do this, go through the archiver on drive C in Documents and Settings (for XP) or Users (for 7, 8 or Vista), find there a folder with your username, and in it - Application Data. Minecraft folder will appear there on older version of Windows. In the new ones, it will appear inside another directory - Roaming. Click Enter and the game files will be moved there.
Step 6
Check if the game works by trying to launch it. If Minecraft opens without problems, make the necessary settings in its menu (select, for example, the desired mode, difficulty, etc.) and start creating the game world. When the launcher gives errors at startup, correct them. For example, if a message about unsuitable video drivers appears, update or install the appropriate software. The gameplay should now start. Enjoy the features of version 1.6.2 in it.
