Nevo
Nevo is a simple tool that extracts snapshots from Minecraft
How can i use this?
- Launch the game, if the game window pops up, launch the tool, specify a username and select
the path (you can ignore this if you are using a version higher than 1.18.1 ) you want the snapshot to be copied to and then press "Launch Game"
-
A command window with all the arguments should open and a second instance of the should open
-
Now you can open the game world to LAN and join via the second instance!
Warning This only works if the Snapshot User joins the User with the Original Copy, the game will kick you if you do it the other way arround.
How does the tool work?
We read the arguments that the Minecraft process spawns with, then we collect these arguments and change
certain parameters (such as the path and the username, the user can specify those in the UI).
Then we write these arguments back to a .bat file and copy the Minecraft Snapshot to the specified location
and launch the copied snapshot with the changed arguments.
What is this for?
You cannot launch two Instances of Minecraft on one PC and join a LAN world without getting the Error "Name already taken".
This Tool and changing the previous described parameters enables LAN multiplayer on one PC.
Can i do this manually?
Sure, just follow the steps describes in this video
