For anyone who’s having really low frames when playing Java on Chromebook, turn the render distance down a couple chunks and it should be fine. Turning down the graphics just makes the game look worse and doesn’t help the frame rate much.

Does anyone know how to fix it when it says it doesn’t support the type of file? I’m getting annoyed cause I followed all the steps except for when it download because it wouldn’t open the file.
My recommendation is to use 6 chunks or 7, fancy graphics, no FPS limit, minimal smooth lighting, and using optifine. I use these settings on a little worse windows laptop with an i7 2640M (ancient cpu) 2 cores four threads, 6 GB 1333mhz ram and Intel hd 3000. The game won’t look too bad or too good, i was able to use some mods like tech guns (basically cool looking 3D functional guns with some new enemies and lots of guns), biomes o plenty, eyemod and mrcrayfish device mod. I get around 30 - 60 FPS with some dips to the 20s. Playing on hypixel without optifine (Minecraft just weirdly crashes every time I join a world or server with optifine) yields me 20 FPS in the crowded lobby and 60 FPS when at my home island. Gameplay is pretty good although my PCs temperature goes so high even when not running anything. Minecraft would be great if Microsoft just used the android version and tweaked the keyboard gameplay to fit the PC style. Hope this helps anyone. I might buy Samsung chrome book 4+ for online school, web browsing and some controller supported games. So Minecraft would be a really fun game whenever I am bored. Everyone will say “why didn’t you get an Acer aspire 5 for 70$ less than that chrome book (acer aspire 3 is 300$ for the 128GB SSD model and the Samsung Chromebook 4+ is 370$” My answer will be the beautiful sleek design. When I open it up I won’t turn it on I will just gaze at it’s looks :/ Thank so much for the video! Edit: just a suggestion from me can you try CSGO or Paladins, you could try LowSpecGamer’s tweaks if it doesn’t run well, speaking of tweaks, you can see videos from the LowSpecGamer’s to get some tweaks on your favorite games.
This was incredibly helpful! Thanks to you (and your step by step videos) you saved us from having to return a Chromebook that we primarily bought for Minecraft. Thanks so much!!

Guys! If it says an error occurred while installing, just re-download minecraft then transfer it to the Linux file and install. It'll take a little longer but it should work.
After following the guidance here, I still have three lingering issues that are preventing me from playing Minecraft on my HP Chromebook 14 that was purchased August 2022: 1. All Pointer Lock flags (#exo-pointer-lock) are not available on my Chromebook. It looks like Google has removed these flags. I do not know if they will ever be replaced. I am running Version 108.0.5359.75. 2. When I try running Minecraft, I get the Error 9 code when it tries to build the world. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game three times, reset my Chromebook countless times, and gone through the directions provided through this block of installation instructions (and others) several times. 3. The latest Optifine version available is 1.19.2 but the version of Minecraft I am running is 1.19.3. There is no Optifine version released for 1.19.3 on the Optifine website yet (despite other people trying to say it has been released and then redirecting you to scam pages). I am feeling frustrated and a bit defeated through the 10+ hours I have now spent trying to get this to work on my daughter's Chromebook before Christmas. If there are any answers out there to these issues, I would really like to hear them. Thank you
@JohnRC right click on Minecraft.deb and choose the option "open with" that has an arrow next to it. then, click "install with Linux (beta)" Let me know it you have any more problems.
If you are having problems, try reinstalling linux on wifi, and make sure to do the sudo apt upgrade, but the main thing is to WAIT UNTIL THE UPDATING IS FINISHED for you to use the minecraft installer

@Eevnos when I click on the Minecraft launcher logo, it will load for 2 seconds and then do just not open. I keep on clicking and it loads for 2 seconds and just close the app. Please help me..
have to leave it running for a bit takes like a minute or two to open, by that i mean like, when you open it takes a few seconds, and when the launcher is open and you press play its gonna close and open minecraft. it takes a few seconds on each of them.
@@Eevnos Yas I did download the .deb file, but it still doesn't work. So how do i turn on this "Linux support" the only LInux i can turn on in my settings is, "Linux development environment (Beta)" is that the same as linux support? edit: wait i just checked your description box, i'll go thru the video "setting up linux..."
@@Eevnos I went thru the video, and if you want to answer now or in your updated video, how to I exist the Linux tab without un-saving? - I did manage to download Minecraft so thank you very much for your replies and support!! Much appreciated
@Eevnos I have been experiencing trouble with the download, as I'm sure others have too while trying to download the file. It notifies me that "An error occured" and tells me to open the crash log. I own a Lenovo 300e Chromebook with Linux pre-installed and for about two months now, has been giving me the same error log. It is either that the download doesn't (or will never) support ARM powered Chromebooks. However, I do have an HP Chromebook (Forgot the build name) But it does not come with Linux or Google play Store for that matter. It has an Intel i3 Core but I have finally thought that they have just wasted it on a Chromebook that has no way to Install linux/linux softwares. If the answer is what I fear, then I leave with three words. You win Intel.
at 2:03 on my conputer it says that my linux application failed? how do i fick that ? edit: i fixed it but now there is another problem. i have the penguin minecraft button thing but it keeps loading and loading but wont actually get done. ive been waiting for 10 minutes now and im getting desperate. what should i do?

Cool. Will do this ! Please showcase USB access if possible. Would love to upload scripts to my devices but full access to native USB is blocked. So can't utilise Arduino IDE, Platformio on VS Code, etc. Any advice?

I recently installed it. It just takes some time to load. You also may need to reinstall it. This is really easy with my tutorial.
Can someone help me? When i try to open the file it says, "The file type is not supported..." what do i do?
Are you sure you downloaded the .deb file and not the .exe or some other format.
If so, did you turn on Linux support first?
@@Eevnos how do i turn on linux supprot
@@Eevnos Yas I did download the .deb file, but it still doesn't work. So how do i turn on this "Linux support" the only LInux i can turn on in my settings is, "Linux development environment (Beta)" is that the same as linux support?
edit: wait i just checked your description box, i'll go thru the video "setting up linux..."
@@QueenJiyeonnie Yeah, that's it.. they moved it recently, I'm working on an updated video.

@@PeakoftheApex has his launcher ever failed to run minecraft? like after the span of a month
@Eevnos I have been experiencing trouble with the download, as I'm sure others have too while trying to download the file.
It notifies me that "An error occured" and tells me to open the crash log.
I own a Lenovo 300e Chromebook with Linux pre-installed and for about two months now, has been giving me the same error log. It is either that the download doesn't (or will never) support ARM powered Chromebooks.
However, I do have an HP Chromebook (Forgot the build name) But it does not come with Linux or Google play Store for that matter. It has an Intel i3 Core but I have finally thought that they have just wasted it on a Chromebook that has no way to Install linux/linux softwares.
If the answer is what I fear, then I leave with three words.
You win Intel.

this is what happens to me aswell!!
