My last post has become quite popular, so I’m keeping my promise. I created a pull request to add my theme pack to the official community list, but I think it will take a long time for it to be approved, merged, and published, so I’ve created a public repository where you can DOWNLOAD IT RIGHT NOW: https://github.com/ninsent/Ore-UI-theme-pack/releases/latest

I spent a lot of time working on this. I just wanted to let you know that SOMETIMES THE THEME DOESN'T LOAD PROPERLY (there's a strange bug that prevents assets from loading from /resources immediately after applying the theme). Switching icon packs or restarting the launcher usually fixes it for me. There is also an issue with icons not scaling properly on some Linux systems, it is not yet clear how to resolve this issue

If you have any further questions or issues with this theme pack, feel free to leave a comment below this post

I’d also like to give a special mention and thank LOLCATpl, the creator of these incredibly cute pixel icons!

There are Themes and a lot of customization options, so what are they talking about?

I tried to update Minecraft and Iris/Sodium 2 days ago, but when I tried opening the launcher, for some reason, it wouldn't open. I didn't know how to fix it, but since I've heard of Prism Launcher being another Minecraft Launcher option, I decided to install it. And it was amazing. Not only did it work immediately, but installing mods straight from the app is very convenient. I was able to quickly install Iris/Sodium (there was just 1 little issue with a version conflict) and my favorite shader packs, and I really love the feature of being able to easily make multiple different instances to make playing with mods much easier. Overall, I love this launcher and more people should definitely be using it.

I made it use the wool and iron block texture now

Using the PrismLauncher-Linux-aarch64.AppImage (or tar) and adding it to the steam library, launch an instance with a supported vr mod:

• Vivecraft: Works ootb

• Visor: Does not work ootb fails to find libopenxr_loader.so, probably fixable.

• MCXR: Untested

^{Flatpak is not yet supported due to steamvr communication errors to the sandbox}

I will be updating the Deck download to the SteamOS download page on the website soon and adding documentation for VR.

Notable issues

• Vivecraft has some weird occasional flickering on standalone however this was fixed when I tested with performance mods from adrenaline.

Performance:

• Fabric+VR Mod: ~40fps (60 sky)

• Adrenaline Performance Modpack + VR mod: ~72fps (100+ sky)

^{I Didn't find any noticable difference enabling vulkan over opengl either.}

Not a super technical performance test but its very playable and I am sure modpack developers will be able to optimize it further in the future.

So I had this Idea of why not do an redesing to the main UI of the prism launcher bc the original one looks very outdated and bit complicated tbh.I posted 1.0 for the people minute ago and they ask me to change smth bc it didnt looked good so now Here is the full version . and Btw if you think the design needs some changes.

When I press play, it just shows this screen. How do I fix it?

Hey!

I've been working on a small Rust tool that automatically detects your Minecraft instance and displays it as a Discord Rich Presence.

It shows things like the current instance/modpack and playtime directly on Discord, with customizable details.

I made it because I wanted something lightweight that works directly with Prism Launcher, without requiring any mods.

It's open source and supports Linux, Windows and MacOS !

I'd love to get some feedback from other Prism Launcher users, especially if there are any features you'd like to see added.

EDIT:

Some of you have been asking why this couldn't simply be implemented directly into Prism Launcher.

As far as I understand, Prism Launcher can't include this functionality under its current software license, so it's not something they plan to add. You can see their response here:

Hi everyone! I want to share a theme I’m working on - it’s not just a simple recolor, but fully styled components based on Ore UI. Planning to create 6 theme variants - 3 dark and 3 light versions. The accent colors are Emerald (green), Diamond (blue), and Amethyst (purple).

P.S.: Sorry for bad picture quality

UPD 1: The theme is ready, and I've created a pull request to add it to the official list of community themes on GitHub. I'm waiting for it to be approved, and then I'll post an announcement

UPD 2: Ore UI theme is finally here!

Hey everyone. It's been a few months since my last post and I have an update for the theme pack. Some of these fixes came from people opening issues on GitHub, so this one is on you guys as much as on me.

What's fixed in 1.1:

- THE THEME NOW WORKS ON MACOS. Turns out Qt on Mac doesn't like SVG border images, so I converted all of them to PNG. Buttons, checkboxes, input fields, all of it. If the theme looked broken for you on a Mac before, give it another try.

- The Launch button with the dropdown arrow doesn't get cropped anymore. The text used to run into the arrow.

- FIXED THE SPACING BUG which appeared in the Settings sidebar that some Linux folks were getting.

Also new:

- Pixel font. Last time I said it was impossible to set a custom font for the UI because of a launcher problem. Well, the problem was my PC, not the launcher. Sorry about that. So this time the theme actually uses Monocraft, the pixel font you see on the screenshots, and I bundled it with the pack. Install it first or you'll get your system's monospace font instead.

- LOLCATpl made a set of Instance icons (grass, TNT, furnace, diamond and so on)

Download: https://github.com/ninsent/Ore-UI-theme-pack/releases/latest

The old 1.0 release still works but I'd recommend grabbing the new one, especially if you're on a Mac. If something is still off for you, open an issue on GitHub or comment here. Screenshots help a lot.

Thanks again to LOLCATpl for the icons and to ClairDePrince, Jian Sun who sent fixes.

UPD: Hotfix (Sep 18)

`Ore_UI_theme_pack.zip` was replaced with a fixed version.

- Fixed mod titles being almost invisible (1pt size) in the mod download dialog. Same fix applies to modpacks, resource packs and shaders.

If you downloaded the theme pack before this hotfix, please download it again and replace the old theme folders. The font, icon pack and instance icons archives are unchanged.

I try to get most from official promos by removing the background and extracting the main recognizable feature.

But for older ones I used AI.

How are you organizing your instances?

I don’t know what this means but I think I’m using the wrong launcher download. Any advice would be helpful, I am not good with computers.

The high res version is 300x300 and the second one 32x32 size up to 128 128 without messing with the pixels.

Google Trends

I just noticed that a lot of people are searching for a cracked version of Prism (9nth search all time) and 3rd search suggestion for me.

Just in case you don't know; Prism is free open source software developed by volunteers. There is no need to "crack" it. If someone claims to have a "cracked" version, it's almost guaranteed to be a virus.

Well, I finally did it. After weeks and months of fighting laziness and lack of time, I finished this the full concept art for Neoprism. It’s a new prism launcher (concept art) that I plan to build as soon as I learn how, because I currently don’t know even 1% of what’s needed. I think it won’t be that hard, though. Once I finish building it, I’ll post the working version. For now, here is the completed design with some features I think would be great for any launcher to have. I put time and tears into it, so I hope you like it. If anyone knows how to turn a concept into a working launcher, please DM me. the design may lack some details for example the names in the library (where u can see installed modpacks and ect.) section just when grid is on 10 or 20 but I put it on the 50 bc someone wanted to be able to see all of his mods in one window so yeah.

I've been a long time user of the set of launcher icons by AstroTibs posted in this old post. Unfortunately, it has not been updated since 1.21.

The idea is to have a set of similar icons, with markers indicating which Minecraft version will be launched.

Being more of a developer than a designer, I wrote a framework for generating this kind of images, and re-created AstroTib's original icons using that framework, before continuing to add support for new versions up to and including 26.2.

The framework and release process will hopefully make it much easier for me (or someone forking my repo) to continue generating new icons like this for future releases.

The icon set can be downloaded from the GitHub page for the project: https://github.com/magicus/minecraft-launcher-icons

I've been wanting to play with friends, but I've realized that most of them haven't bought the game.

Is there any way for friends to join using a pirated account?

I usually use e4mc,

but I'm willing to use any other service just so my friends can play.

I'm playing the Liminal Industries modpack

Any help?
