Frequently asked questions
How do I deobfuscate Minecraft code for the first time?
Run the tool, select whether you want client or server code, pick your Minecraft version, then click Start. The tool will download the JAR and mappings automatically, then output a deobfuscated ZIP file with renamed classes and methods.
What's the difference between deobfuscating and decompiling?
Deobfuscation renames the obfuscated code (like 'a' becomes 'player') but keeps it as bytecode. Decompilation converts that bytecode into readable Java source files, which takes longer but is easier to study.
Can I deobfuscate multiple versions at once?
No, you need to run the tool separately for each version you want to deobfuscate. However, you can use command line mode to automate running multiple versions in sequence.
Why is decompilation taking so long?
Decompilation can take from 30 seconds to several minutes depending on your computer's speed and the Minecraft version size. This is normal—the tool is converting all bytecode to Java source, which is processor-intensive.
