Launcher not saving my email as username

[Darkwizard98]

The Launcher is not saving my email as my username, when I enter the email and then next time I open Technic Launcher my username is there instead of my email.

this is annoying with the recent change where I have to use my email to login.

I don't know if this is my end or just the way the launcher works.

This is Mojang punishing you for giving them money. My suggestion? Go to Options on the launcher and clear your cashe. See if it will save your email after that.

I don't really see how it is a punishment, but whatever

I went in and manually deleted the lastlogin, but it is still only showing the username instead of the email. I'm setting up eclipse to see if I can debug the launcher's code, but my first guess is that it is here where things are going awry.

How can it be going awry there? It's a String object.

Isn't there already a topic on this?

Only pulling 32bytes of the hash and using that as the string? Like I said, it was an initial guess.

I'm still working on n00bishly getting the project imported and working in eclipse :P

That isn't a real hash. It's just a placeholder for if Minecraft is ever fixed. Not to mention that's the password, not login handle. The handle is a plain string.

Right right -.- Luckily, I got the debugging to work (woo, installing JDK1.7)

The incorrect part is in this method.

The post URL returns the minecraft.net username in the results. This, in turn, is what gets saved to values array, that then gets saved into the array which is eventually saved into the lastlogin file.

I should probably put together a pull request or something.

A joke. You gave them money and they changed your log in method on you causing you problems. Almost as if they're punishing you for giving them money. Not a literal statement.

This is what people should be doing rather then doing what the people in this thread are doing. Thank you for taking initiative and actually backing your words up with hard work.
