Basics
Getting started
Get access, download the Client, approve your PC, and launch.
Get access
Client access is bought from the Billing tab of your dashboard, or redeemed there with an access key. A monthly plan adds thirty days and stacks onto whatever time you already hold, so renewing early never costs you days. Lifetime never expires.
Download and approve your PC
- Download the Client from your dashboard. The download is only available to accounts with live access.
- Run BubblyClient.exe. It creates a device key on this PC and shows you an eight-character activation code.
- Follow the link it opens, sign in, and check that the code and hardware digest on the page match what the launcher is showing before you approve.
- Once approved, the launcher remembers this PC. You will not be asked again unless you unlink it or your device key changes.
Note
One account has one linked PC at a time, but a shared PC can be approved by several accounts. Unlink from your dashboard before moving to a different machine.
Launch
With Minecraft running, press Launch. The launcher verifies your account, fetches the current Client, and injects it. Bubbly's window appears once the Client has finished starting up.
Tip
The external window has its own taskbar entry; press Insert to show or hide it. For the in-game editor, press Right Shift — see Click GUI.
If something goes wrong
The launcher shows a short code beneath any failure — MAP-INIT-3 and the like. That code is far more useful than the sentence above it. Troubleshooting lists what each one means.
