on GitHub

This release fixes some bugs and adds more translations.

Details

• Added French (France) translation (thanks to @SkytAsul and @DoctaEnkoda for translating).
• Added Swedish (Sweden) translation (thanks to @TechnicProblem for translating).
• Fixed a bug with the progress bar not disappearing when importing chunks with an odd offset.
• Fixed a bug where importing chunks might create empty files.
• Added color mappings, biomes and entities for Minecraft 1.16.
• Fixed the Nether view to work with the new Nether biomes from 1.16.
• The arrow keys can now be used in addition to WASD to navigate the map view as a temporary compromise for people with a different keyboard layout other than QWERTY or QWERTZ.
• Fixed vertical scroll bars not showing in the NBT editor, the Array editor and the Chunk filter dropdown.
• Added a log file system. When debug mode is enabled, all logs are now also printed to a file called debug.log. This file is updated automatically every 10 seconds. Exceptions of the same type will be bundled to not flood it with too much repeating data (especially useful to debug unsupported and future Minecraft versions).
• When a filter is used to create a selection, a number can now be specified to also select all adjacent chunks in a specific radius. Can also be used in headless mode when using --mode select with --radius <number>.

"Requirements":

• Either:
  • JRE 8+, you can get it from HERE
  • A Minecraft Java Edition installation
• A computer
• A brain

If you have Java from Oracle installed on your system:

Most likely, .jar files are associated with java on your computer, it should therefore launch by simply double clicking the file (or however your OS is configured to open files using your mouse or keyboard). If not, you can try java -jar mcaselector-1.9.4.jar from your console. If this doesn't work, you might want to look into how to modify the PATH variable on your system to tell your system that java is an executable program.

If you have Minecraft Java Edition installed on your system:

Minecraft Java Edition comes with a JRE that you can use to start the MCA Selector, so there is no need to install another version of java on your system. On Windows, that java version is usually located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Minecraft\runtime\jre-x64\bin\ and once inside this folder you can simply run java.exe -jar <path-to-mcaselector-1.9.4.jar>. On Mac OS you should find it in Applications/Minecraft.app/Contents/runtime/jre-x64/1.8.0_74/bin where you can execute ./java -jar <path-to-mcaselector-1.9.4.jar>.

If you are using OpenJDK:

If you are using a distribution of OpenJDK, you have to make sure that it comes with JavaFX, as it is needed to run the MCA Selector. Some distributions like AdoptOpenJDK (shipped with most Linux distributions) do not ship with JavaFX by default. On Debian distributions, an open version of JavaFX is contained in the openjfx package. This or some other installation of JavaFX is required to run the .jar.

If none of these instructions work, apply "A brain" that you providently held ready after having read the "Requirements" section carefully.
