Is your suggested feature related to a problem? Please describe.
No.
Describe the solution you'd like
I am a minecraft player from other chinese launchers, am trying to use some foreign launcher.
I found that there's no any launcher i use in the Creating An New Instance -> Import From Launcher screen.
In my knowledge, all minecraft instance's directory tree format are simillar, so maybe we can run from existing installed instances directly.
Scan for .minecraft directory in:
- Vanilla Launcher Directory (C:\Users*\AppData\Local\Roaming.minecraft
- Same Directory of Launcher Installed
- Any Directory if User Imported (in a new tab of
Creating An New Instance)
Describe alternatives you've considered
I know two directory tree formats:
- vanilla launcher format: all instances in a
.minecraft directory, put saves, screenshots etc in the same directory to keep them common in any version
- modded launcher format: only
assets, libaries, versions in .minecraft directory, put other things (mods, config, logs, saves etc) in versions directory
once the imported directory tree format matches one of above, add got instances to the list of launcher.
