Welcome to the Linux/Mac OS Minecraft launcher wiki!

Getting started

We plan to provide an AppImage in the near future.

An experimental Ubuntu 18.04+ apt repository is available:

wget -O - https://mcpelauncher.mrarm.io/apt/conf/public.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://mcpelauncher.mrarm.io/apt/ubuntu/ bionic main'
sudo apt-get install msa-daemon msa-ui-qt mcpelauncher-client mcpelauncher-ui-qt

You will need to install 32 bit graphics drivers - for integrated graphics and most AMD GPUs libegl1-mesa:i386 libegl1-mesa-drivers:i386 will work. You will also need to install a sound backend An experimental Ubuntu 16.04 apt repository is available:

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:beineri/opt-qt596-xenial
wget -O - https://mcpelauncher.mrarm.io/apt/conf/public.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://mcpelauncher.mrarm.io/apt/ubuntu/ xenial main'
sudo apt-get install msa-daemon msa-ui-qt mcpelauncher-client mcpelauncher-ui-qt
# To launch do: . /opt/qt59/bin/qt59-env.sh && mcpelauncher-ui-qt

There are Arch AUR packages available: mcpelauncher-msa-git mcpelauncher-msa-ui-qt-git for Xbox Live support (you need to install both) and mcpelauncher-linux-git for the actual launcher. A work-in-progress PKGBUILD for the Metalauncher UI is available at https://gist.github.com/MCMrARM/283b60596eab27416da843df2ce5e91a

A prebuilt macOS binary is available here.
