Microsoft Accounts are not supported

Official post: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/java-edition-moving-house

They have not announced a replacement for Yggdrasil.

I can only assume this spells the end for multimc, unless someone reverse engineers the new system, which I doubt will happen due to risk of DMCA takedowns.

How does the multimc team plan to handle this?

"No specific announcement has been made yet, but it is very likely that they need to be at least updated to work in the future."

[5HT2]

Of course they need to be updated to work. That's not very helpful, it's just reiterating the concerns I already voiced.

I would suggest not to migrate to Microsoft account until MultiMC will support it. Even tho the cape is quite a cool reward, it would not be that special to have one. I can't go back to the official launcher.

[5HT2]

I'm fully aware, which is why I made this issue.

Maybe they can use the Microsoft's Authentication libraries. (I'm not an expert in coding and licensing so I might not know what i'm saying) https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/identity/add-sign-in-with-microsoft

Mojang will release a solution.
I will integrate the solution.

... I am actually one of the people working on the solution.

If you want to use MultiMC, do not migrate to a Microsoft account until a solution is in place.

[peterix]

Ok. Given how everything went internally, this will have to be done from scratch. Solution got scrapped in favor of doing nothing and releasing a statement that 'doing this is at your own risk'.

I guess it's better than 'we will squash you like bugs'.

[peterix]

OK. A very rough implementation is now merged in develop and ready for testing/breaking/fixing.

Please report issues separately.

thanks for the hard work 🎉 😄

After these commits were merged into my download of multimc is has stopped showing skins except for ones attached to microsoft accounts. I tried deleting the files in "accounts/skins/" (this only contained the skins of mojang accounts) after deleting them the files haven't been downloaded again to this location.

[5HT2]

... make a new issue then

[Andreas711]

A bunch of people's accounts are being migrated rapidly so I'm really not sure what's gonna happen but this should 100% be top priority.

No worries, dev has already MSA in testing

Why do you think it was closed
