Hey all.
Before I tell you the script I'm trying to use I want to give you guys an idea of what I'm trying to achieve with it. I'm an avid Minecraft player, and the game places a folder in Application Support called Minecraft. In this folder is a file: /bin/minecraft.jar. In order to mod the game, you rename the file to minecraft-original.jar, unzip and then put new files in the resulting minecraft.jar folder. In order to bring back your vanilla Minecraft installation, you rename the folder minecraft.jar to minecraft-mods.jar, and the file called minecraft-original.jar is renamed minecraft.jar.
What I am attempting to do is create an AppleScript that looks to see whether the folder minecraft-mods.jar exists, and if it does, go back to the vanilla build, but if it doesn't, go to the modded build. My proposed script is below:
tell application "Finder"
set thisFolder to "/Users/John/Dropbox/Minecraft/minecraft/bin"
if folder "minecraft-mods.jar" of thisFolder exists then
set file "minecraft.jar" of thisFolder as "minecraft-original.jar"
set folder "minecraft-mods.jar" of thisFolder as "minecraft.jar"
else
set folder "minecraft.jar" of thisFolder as "minecraft-mods.jar"
set file "minecraft-original.jar" of thisFolder as "minecraft.jar"
end if
end tell
I get the error, "Expected class name but found """." What am I doing wrong?
