[Solved]I can't play Minecraft 1.8.9

I tried all the possible versions of JDK, the open ones and the Oracles ones but it doesn't work. Also I tried other launchers and modified versions of 1.8.9. I tried Java 8, but it doesn't work. 1.16 works at intended.

Re: [Solved]I can't play Minecraft 1.8.9

Doesn't work isn't an error message

What exactly did you try how did you start it what kind of output do you get if you try from a terminal, is this still an Artix installation?

Minecraft launcher starts as usually with minecraft-launcher, no it's not an Artix installation. After I start Minecraft 1.8.9, it stops, turns back to the launcher and then displays Exit Code 0.

Re: [Solved]I can't play Minecraft 1.8.9

I know the launcher is usually started from a GUI menu, but you'll get more feedback if you start it from a terminal. So do that and tell us what it says.
You could also give a link to a pastebin containing the last chunk of lines from the log after the game crashes. That might be helpful.

A few things I would think to try looking into:
Are you using mods?
Is it just version 1.8.9? Download another version and try it.
There are multiple Minecraft Launchers in the AUR. Which one are you using?
Have you updated your computer? Have you updated the launcher specifically?
Are you by chance out of space on your partition? I had a similar thing happen to me once and the cause was a lack of HDD space.

1.8 is ancient. 1.8.x was during the transition from Java 7 to Java 8. 1.8.2 had a bug that made ir impossible to load worlds on Java 8 created with Java 7. Try Java 7.

I tried Java 7 as well. It just says Game Crashed nothing more. I've started minecraft-launcher from the terminal and it didn't print something unusual. I went and I am reading that every time it crashes.
I posted the content of the log there:

I deleted all the other versions of Java, only kept Java 7.

The error means that at least some of the code you are trying to run is compiled with java8 and requires that version to run.

Having 52.0 as major/minor versions is java8 according to http://webcode.lemme.at/2017/09/27/java … r-version/

I uninstalled all the other java version and installed java8. Now I get this https://rentry.co/frp3w .

Reads like broken OpenGL what's your output for

glxinfo -B #Needs mesa-demos

Re: [Solved]I can't play Minecraft 1.8.9

Try running

archlinux-java status

and output what it says. Using

java-8-openjdk

makes Minecraft 1.8.9 work for me.

Re: [Solved]I can't play Minecraft 1.8.9

So I found the solution, I was running Xrandr with a special mode, because my monitor is 75Hz and xrandr doesn't start it by default. Changing the mode to the default one repaired the game.
