tried to install a mod... and it didn't go well.... anyone know how to uninstall and re-install the game?

First I'd recommend pulling any map files you want to keep. Then probably try to delete the Minecraft data folders (both root and local) and relaunch the minecraft launcher. It should then re-update with the current unmodified version. Copy map files back in and you should be good to go.

On second thought, what kind of mod is it? If it modifies the map it may have caused broken coding and ruined the map.

If your map file is messed with I might be able to play amateur code-monkey and fix it.

NESS, JACKIN UR THREAD

In the absence of anyone else doing it, setting up some minecraft serving.

Don't take it too seriously for the time being, for now it's just to see how this all runs and such.

I think my upload speed / machine specs will handle a decent number of players but WE WILL SEE I GUESS

Monsters currently switched to OFF, I'll see about that once I see how well this runs with, uh, at least more than one other person on it.

Anyone interested, give it a go and see how it works for you, let me know if you're able/unable to log in, whether you can play/are crushed with lag, etc.

delete the bin folder in the .minecraft folder then run the game

That is all it takes.

Sure, do the easy way instead. I just do it the way I know would work.

If you knew about this method, then you know that it will work too

WHO WOULD EXPECT this simple process

would meet with UNFORSEEN COMPLICATIONS

EDIT: bitvyper is currently connected so it looks like this shits is working for someone.

EDIT: IF possible post like where-ish you guys are connecting from?

I am hosting this thing from the San Francisco area so if people are trying to get on from like... Luxembourg, then shit might be expected to time out?
