How to Install Minecraft
Now that you have your download ready, just double click the installer as pictured above (don't worry if the number is of a previous version, the launcher automatically downloads the latest builds of Minecraft as well, like 1.14.4 and even snapshots of versions that weren't even released yet!), if running a Windows system. You might need to use the .jar file at the bottom of the list for Mac and Linux, I won't go into details because I don't have those operating systems.
If double clicking didn't work (Tixati would do nothing when I double clicked mine), just use the option "Open Folder" or something similar, then run Minecraft 1.13.1.exe from Windows Explorer directly, otherwise, go to the next step...
I like to use the default settings. For some reason the option for changing it is grayed out on my system, perhaps because I already have it installed and it will just update my game...
oh nvm, it only doesnt let me play on 1.14.4, do u know why?
I just found another launcher and released a new post with new instructions. It should solve the problem, at least until Titan updates their launcher...
NEW Minecraft Launcher 1.14.4 and 1.15 Preview
Thanks again for letting me know of the issue, thanks to you I got to do some research and find a solution that you can use and many other people that were likely stuck "Preparing...".
thank you so much !
You are more than welcome!
it wont let me play on any version above 1.12.2?
What do you mean? On my server or just plain straight? Oh, hang on. Something is indeed wrong with Titan's server, let me see what I can find out.
So far I am also stuck with the errors below...

It seems they need to update the launcher again or something, it feels like a download server issue. I am doing more research.
