Issue Launching with OptiFine

[Fuldmathr]

System Information

MultiMC version: 0.6.4-1291

Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit

Summary of the issue or suggestion:

When I attempt to launch an instance of 1.13.2 with OptiFine, I get an error saying that some artifacts marked as 'local' are missing their files.

What should happen:

The game launches.

Suspected cause:

I must have done something wrong in setting it up, but I followed the page https://github.com/MultiMC/MultiMC5/wiki/MultiMC-and-OptiFine and can't find any error in the Json file, file location, etc.

Logs/Screenshots:

MultiMC version: 0.6.4-1291

Minecraft folder is:
C:/Users/Furui/Downloads/mmc-stable-win32/MultiMC/instances/1.13.2/.minecraft

Java path is:
C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Oracle/Java/javapath/javaw.exe

Java is version 1.8.0_201, using 64-bit architecture.

Instance update failed because: Some artifacts marked as 'local' are missing their files:
C:/Users/Furui/Downloads/mmc-stable-win32/MultiMC/instances/1.13.2/libraries/OptiFine_1.13.2_HD_U_E5.jar

You need to either add the files, or removed the packages that require them.
You'll have to correct this problem manually.

Additional Info:

I enter the json file just as the example shows, switching OptiFine_1.13.2_HD_U_E4 out of OptiFine_1.13.2_HD_U_E5

Sorry if this should be simple, thanks for your time.

Well, you need to add the C:/Users/Furui/Downloads/mmc-stable-win32/MultiMC/instances/1.13.2/libraries/OptiFine_1.13.2_HD_U_E5.jar file.

[peterix]

delete that json and remove that extra folder the jar is in

[peterix]

Unless I'm looking at this wrong. That UI is confusing.

[Fuldmathr]

Still the same error

[peterix]

You need OptiFine_1.13.2_HD_U_E5.jar to be in C:/Users/Furui/Downloads/mmc-stable-win32/MultiMC/instances/1.13.2/libraries/. Don't put it in more folders, don't assume it will search for it like you did there. That's all there is to it.

[Fuldmathr]

Yes the executable jar file is in libraries now without the extra folder like you said in your last comment, but I still get the same error.

[peterix]

Then it is not there. Maybe yoiu put something else there, that simply does not belong there at all?

Now that I look at it, it does seem like you did something weird with optifine and turned it into a version jar along with the json. Don't do that. Just take the original jar and put it in the folder.

[Fuldmathr]

That was the problem! The reason it was weird is because for the regular Minecraft launcher, you run OptiFine and turn it into that jar along with the json so I figured it was the same. Thank you.

[Fuldmathr]

Hm, actually after doing that it launches perfectly fine but OptiFine just isn't running.

I noticed this in the log : "Completely ignored arguments: [--tweakClass, optifine.OptiFineTweaker]"

I'm a bit confused once again.
