What does it do?
This Visual Basic Script (VBS) allows you to easily switch between and backup old .Jar files. You are able to quickly and easily load different versions of Minecraft and also modded versions of Minecraft that you place inside a folder.​
How do I use it?
Using the version switcher is very easy. Its self explanatory on how you use it. If you really can't figure it out, tell me on this thread and I will show you.​
Where can I get it?
There are two different versions of the Minecraft Version Switcher that you can download.​
Note-1.2 = 1.2.2 when using the Version Switcher
Minecraft Version Switcher HEAVY-
This version switcher comes preloaded with a few vanilla Minecraft jars I found.​
Download- Mediafire 18.24MB​
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​
Minecraft Version Switcher LIGHT-
This version switcher comes with just Minecraft 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 (all vanilla).​
Download- Mediafire 9.52MB​
Please note: I am new to coding and stuff so I apologize for any stupid stuff I did while making the script.

I'd just like to say I've been using this in its beta stages, and I've found it quite useful in switching between Herocraft and testing 1.2 updates quickly and efficiently. I also like saving my .Jars as funny names :).

I love this, very useful :D

But, when I tried to BACKUP my current jar and name it 'Herocraft' I got this error..

Are you keeping the version switcher script and the other folders together? Try bundling the Readme, Jars folder, Launcher folder, and Script together inside one folder.

Wait do you put this in the minecraft jar just like using a mod right
Just download the .zip and unzip it into a folder easy to get to (like on your desktop?).

And then simply read the 'READ ME' and follow the instructions. Fairly simple.
