Re: Still confused
Orrr you could just drag the older version into the same folder as the current minecraft.jar and rewrite it?

Re: Still confused
Download the old .jar, drag it into the %appdata%\.minecraft\bin folder. Click yes when it asks if you want to overwrite. That's it.

Re: Still confused
There's a third party launcher that asks you if you want to update. It's great. I'll post the link when I find it.

Type into your start menu the following text in bold:
%appdata%\.minecraft\bin
This will bring up one folder which says 'bin' This is PART of your minecraft folder, just to get into it on the SMP version.
Once you've got the the folder open, replace the minecraft.jar with the old minecraft.jar by re-writing the file. (This will pop up as it has the same name "minecraft.jar" but it is an older version allowing you to play!)
To download the old minecraft.jar go to the main Home page of these forums and a download link is there.
This... is more simple than you think.

Re: Still confused
This might derail the thread, but is that team viewer thing free in the full version?

Re: Still confused
Also, the reason why it only says "minecraft" instead of "minecraft.jar" is because you have "hide extensions of known file types" checked under Folder options in the control panel.

Re: Still confused
save the minecraft.jar file given to you by orcworm in a folder... then whenever u have trouble just copy and past into ur bin again
so u wont have to keep downloading the file
just saying.. thats what i do...
well unless the orcworm file gets updated
