How to build from source

The commands must be run in the following order to build from source:

• decompile.sh
  • Downloads original jar and decompiles it
• init.sh
  • Turns decompiled sources into a git repository
• applyPatches.sh
  • Applies OLauncher patches to the decompiled sources
• mvn clean package
  • Compiles the patched launcher
• genredist.sh (optional)
  • Make sure you've run git submodule update --init as this script uses the AutoOL submodule.
  • Generates the redistributable JAR - Do not distribute the JARs in olauncher/target!
