	~~All available version of the game itself are listed on~~
	~~http://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/versions.json~~

	~~The jar file for a specific version is located at~~
	~~http://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/<version>/<version>.jar~~

	~~Some information on how to properly run said jar is available at~~
	~~http://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/<version>/<version>.json~~

	{{Warning \| As the Minecraft launcher updates the format of the JSON or the requirements to run the client may change. The ''minimumLauncherVersion'' in the <version>.json should be used to detect changes instead of just failing on updates}}

	~~== Libraries ==~~
	~~The libraries which can be used for all minecraft versions and are downloaded by the launcher are located at~~
	~~https://libraries.minecraft.net/~~

	~~The json file downloaded above is used in order to determine which libraries to download. Inside the file is a key, <code>libraries</code> which contains information about each library required.~~
	~~Example:~~
	~~<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript">~~
	{
	~~"name": "org.lwjgl.lwjgl:lwjgl-platform:2.9.1-nightly-20130708-debug3",~~
	~~"natives": {~~
	~~"linux": "natives-linux",~~
	~~"windows": "natives-windows",~~
	~~"osx": "natives-osx"~~
	},
	~~"extract": {~~
	~~"exclude":~~ [
	~~"META-INF/"~~
	]
	},
	~~"rules":~~ [
	{
	~~"action": "allow",~~
	~~"os": {~~
	~~"name": "osx",~~
	~~"version": "^10\\.5\\.\\d$"~~
	}
	}
	]
	}
	~~</syntaxhighlight>~~

	~~The <code>name</code> key is used to determine the url from which to download the library from. The format of this string is~~
	~~<package>:<name>:<version>~~
	~~The corresponding URL would look like this:~~
	~~<package>/<name>/<version>/<name>-<version>.jar~~
	~~where <code>path</code> is the result of replacing all the periods in <code>package</code> with slashes.~~

	~~It also download a hash, in sha1, the url is:~~
	~~<package>/<name>/<version>/<name>-<version>.jar.sha1~~


	~~The <code>natives</code> key provides a string for each specific platform to be inserted between the .jar and the <version> of the filename, resulting in a filename with the format:~~
	~~<name>-<version>-<native-string>.jar~~
	~~This is applied to any file with the <code>natives</code> key.~~


	~~The <code>extract</code> key provides rules for the extraction of the file.~~


	The <code>rules</code> key is used to determine which platforms to download the file to. When the <code>action</code> is <code>allow</code>, the file will be downloaded to the platform stated in <code>os</code>. When the <code>action</code> is <code>disallow</code>, the file will not be downloaded to the platform stated in <code>os</code>. If there is no <code>os</code> key, the rule is default for non-specified platforms.


	~~In the example above, on an OS X platform, the full download path would be~~
	~~https://libraries.minecraft.net/org/lwjgl/lwjgl/lwjgl-platform/2.9.1-nightly-20130708-debug3/lwjgl-platform-2.9.1-nightly-20130708-debug3-natives-osx.jar~~
	~~The file would be extracted but the <code>META-INF</code> file would not be. Additionally, the file would only be downloaded if the computer was running OS X 10.5.~~

	~~== Assets ==~~
	~~The game itself downloads further resources from~~
	~~http://resources.download.minecraft.net/~~

	~~An index is available at~~
	~~https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/indexes/<index>.json~~
	where index is obtained from the 'assets' field in the versions.json, if this field is missing it defaults to '[https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/indexes/legacy.json legacy]'. Each resource in the file has a name (the field name of the resource object), a SHA1 hash, and a file size. The client currently downloads all resources in the index from
	~~http://resources.download.minecraft.net/<first 2 hex letters of hash>/<whole hash>~~
	~~and stores them in~~
	~~.minecraft/assets/objects/<first 2 hex letters of hash>/<whole hash>~~
	~~and a copy is stored in~~
	~~.minecraft/asserts/virtual/legacy/~~
	~~in the old format for versions that don't support the new system (1.7.2 and below)~~
