Script to install Minecraft on Ubuntu

Minecraft on Ubuntu

Although install Minecraft en Ubuntu It is not exactly a difficult task, the simpler the procedure the better, especially for newer users. And nothing is easier to install the popular video game than a simple script.

The script, the work of Cassidy James and Cody Garver, is called Unofficial Minecraft Installer, is completely free and has its own repository hosted on Launchpad, in such a way that to use it it is enough to add the PPA (valid for Ubuntu 12.10, 12.04 and 13.04):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:minecraft-installer-peeps/minecraft-installer

Refresh local information:

sudo apt-get update

And perform the installation:

sudo apt-get install minecraft-installer

The script connects directly to the official server, downloading all the files necessary to run the game. Also, if not already, install Open JDK 7.

When finished, all you have to do is run the game application and then enter your credentials. The script adds, in addition to the launcher, quick lists for the folder of screenshots, textures and the video game wiki.
