What about you create your own MinecraftTS server type that uses YOUR authentication services instead of Mojang.
Instead of using mojang's server
Isn't that the same thing This does?
And, does MinecraftTS require minecraft to use it?

Edit: If the link doesnt work: https://ely.by/
FWIK it needs you to have minecraft so that it can pull textures out from somewhere, but you can just use a free texture pack. it also needs either java to connect to java servers, bedrock to connect to bedrock servers or nothing for TS servers (if/when they come out)

if talking about java, there can be a script downloading the jar and extracting the assets, but dunno how, like using this list of every minecraft java version?
(this shouldn't be bad st, like i'm giving facts, not violations to myself :D)
i had to remove mojang api because this is scratch

a real forumer doesn't log in for six months and then goes on a three month posting spree, as god intended

Surely we get another big log.
I just read through this entire post.
I will bug test if you do a bug testing thing.
Good luck with this!

Yes, it might be like that (ely.by is a good example)
Except uwv can design their own system

I don't think you can download Minecraft JARs directly – you might have to rely on a Minecraft Launcher to do it. Although, this guy made a launcher: https://github.com/mindstorm38/portablemc/ without using the vanilla Minecraft Launcher to fetch JARs

Don’t you have to sign in to download jars (even without the official launcher)? Same with the default texture packs

Yeah I know. Is there a custom-made way to authenticate with Minecraft and download JARs though?

Wiki.vg probably has api documentation

It does have documentation for logging into Minecraft, but that requires an Azure application for no reason lol

i don't want to ruin this but maybe using an username input, and make the skin change to it's own name?
this is the only solution but there could be better ways that i might not know…

Yes, here is a 1.8.9 jar for example: https://launcher.mojang.com/v1/objects/3870888a6c3d349d3771a3e9d16c9bf5e076b908/client.jar
And Minecraft Assets (such as textures are stored in the jar too)
please don't remove this post scratch team i'm just showing proof of concept

Wait, so could you actually just play Minecraft for free with this method, or does require some authentication?

I think Minecraft has a free demo mode.

Most likely requires authentication otherwise it just plays the demo version.

actually the demo mode is a command line flag, you don't need to actually authenticate with mojang at all, only if you want to play online mode servers
the only required arguments are –username and –accessToken. for offline play –accessToken should be 0 and –username can be anything you want (although im pretty sure access token can be anything you want too, most things just use 0)
see: https://wiki.vg/Launching_the_game

Why Typescript instead of Javascript?

Typescript is superior in literally every way.

I wouldn't say better in “every” way. It can be harder to understand and read at times.
