  3. In the search bar type " %appdata% " and then hit enter
  4. Create a new folder somewhere on your computer to store your backed up client
  5. Copy the " .Minecraft " folder to your backup location

Roll-back


  2. Click the start button
  3. In the search bar type " %appdata% " and then hit enter
  4. Open the folder with your backed-up client
  5. At this point decide if you want to back up your 1.2 client ( If yes then Follow the backup steps 3 and 4 ) If no continue on

  2. Open Finder
  3. Press ⌘-G and type in "~/Library/Application Support/" and then hit enter (Note, this is case-sensitive!)
  4. Create a new folder somewhere on your computer to store your backed up client
  5. Copy the "minecraft" folder to your backup location
  6. Open Minecraft and generate your V1.2 Client

Roll-back


  2. Open Finder
  3. Press ⌘-G and type in "~/Library/Application Support/" and then hit enter (Note, this is case-sensitive!)
  4. Open the folder with your backed-up client
  5. At this point decide if you want to back up your 1.2 client ( If yes then Follow the backup steps 3 and 4 ) If no continue on
  6. Delete the "minecraft" folder in Application Support
  7. Copy your backed-up client to the Application Support folder
  8. Go play on Minetown

Note, once you load a single-player world with 1.2, you cannot load it with 1.1 as there are save format changes in 1.2, and it will automatically convert your save files to the new format when you open them.
