It’s very performant, there’s just no companies that care, rightfully so. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PkHolm · 2022-06-29 04:03 Are you asking bout client or server? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- implicitpharmakoi · 2022-06-29 06:31 This whole thread is a whirlwind of emotions... Congrats though. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- alexnoyle · 2022-06-29 07:47 I did it by installing PolyMC from git source and building LWJGL from ports with some manual patching. If anyone wants my LWJGL folder let me know. I think it’s easier than what OP went through. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DovgaN_Nik · 2022-06-29 10:37 Can't you install latest JRE and just do java -jar prefferedLauncher.jar ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Such_Interest_8057 · 2022-06-29 11:31 you can do that, but the old .jar MC Launcher doenst allow Microsoft Logins and only MC Versions older than 1.12.2 will work, because FreeBSD only ships with LWJGL 2.9.4 and newer MC versions requiere LWJGL 3. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- eigelp · 2022-06-29 13:09 Aren’t the PS3, PS4 and PS5 operating systems based on FreeBSD? A while ago there were also rumors the Nintendo Switch used FreeBSD, but I don’t know whether that was ever confirmed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- grahamperrin · 2022-07-23 15:28 > I finally got it to run, … /u/Such_Interest_8057 if you like, mark your post: [answered](https://i.imgur.com/pTA9UeG.png) Incidentally, I can't guess why your comment was auto-moderated, but it's now approved.
