Risugami ModLoader is basically a root modification manager for Minecraft that allows you to easily install mods by putting their files into the Jar file. ModLoader stops conflicts between the mods that modify the gameplay aspects and object IDs. Developers can decompile this mod to make their mod compatible with latest version of Minecraft. The current Risugami ModLoader is for Minecraft 1.5 and above.
How to Install Risugami ModLoader:
Windows Operating System
- Open WinKey+R (it will open Run), type %appdata%/.minecraft/bin and hit enter.
- Open up Minecraft.jar with 7zip/WinRAR
- Drag and Drop Risugami ModLoader files in to .jar file.
- Remove the META-INF directory too.
- Close everything and Run Minecraft
Macintosh Operating System
- Open Applications > Utilities and open Terminal.
- Enter the following, line by line:
cd ~ mkdir mctmp cd mctmp jar xf ~/Library/Application\ Support/minecraft/bin/minecraft.jar
- Now in the background, copy all the files and folders into the mctmp directory.
- In Terminal, type in the following:
rm META-INF/MOJANG_C.* jar uf ~/Library/Application\ Support/minecraft/bin/minecraft.jar ./ cd .. rm -rf mctmp
- Run Minecraft, enjoy!

this blackscreens the client
gives just a blackscreen after logging in!
you can erase the mods if you get an error by doing force update but remember if you force update is done goto minecraft.jar and delete meta-inf agian
For all those arguing about this. I have the same problem as everyone else with the black screen when installing mod loader. So I decided to unleash my kung fu. Heres some things I to get mine working.
Starting with vanilla 1.5.1 jar file (deleted all old configs and mod folders) – runs fine..
Installed optifine – runs fine..
Installed Modloader – fail black screen..
Start with vanilla jar file – runs fine..
Installed Modloader first – runs fine..
Installed Reis Mini map – runs fine..
Installed Optifine – runs fine.. – MC 1.5.1 working with Modloader Reis Mini Map and optifine.
Installed ToomanyItems mod – fail error that modloader failed to load
MC fails with TMI modloader, minimap and optifine installed.
Starting with mc jar file with modloader and reis mini map – fail error that modloader failed to load
Conclusions
TMI dont work with Modloader
Modloader must be installed before using optifine to aviod black screen.
somebody needs to test other mods to see what works these are the only ones i use at the moment and for my purposes it works fine with Modloader, Reis Minimap and Optifine installed in that order..
Basicly start with vanilla jar file. install ModLoader FIRST !!! delete entire META INF
Install Modloader , Reis Mini map then (??other mods??) then optifine.

I installed modloader for MC 1.5.2 but when i lunch minecraft there is no mod option ingame.so i can’t play mods that need modloader.why?
yup, blackscreen
This is not for 1.4.6 as of Dec 20 – it is the 1.4.5 version. There is (currently) no 1.4.6 modloader release
Like above – black screen. Previous versions for previous Minecrafts worked flawlessly. Tried 1.4.6 modloaders from many sites and they all black screen the game.
The official Risugami Modloader 1.4.6 has been released, the link has been already updated. Please try again now. Thanks.
I need one thats not dl.dropbox
It doesn’t work for me
How do yo use it to apply mods?
Black screen Really? even TMI has blackscreen. these are all the mods I want for 1.5, TMI, SPC, Modloader, and Minecraft Fordge. and all has black screen. someone please comment me to stop this problem
Black screen here, too! And I did remember to delete the META-INF. Mincraft version 1.5.1.
An update would be great!
i loaded fine, but i deleted the meta-inf before putting the loader on
for some reason when i install TMI it stops working and gives me an error report… seriously… i have like four of them because i kept trying. it kept saying “modloader failed to initialize” (I’m on minecraft 1.5.1)
4 starters 4 everyone thts getting blackscreen install 1 mod at a time if it works backup minecraft 4 this open ur minecraft.jar by typing in start %appdta% it will open roaming fromthere open ur .minecraft folder thn open ur minecraft.jar delete meta-inf drag the files using winr ar or 7zip 2 install this mod
My son wants to run the Zeppelin mod, so I’m trying to install Minecraft 1.2.5 to make that happen. I found version B1.7.3 of the mod loader, but that causes 1.2.5 to blackscreen. It doesn’t generate any sort of log I can see.
I’ve added mods to 1.4.6 in the past, so I understand the procedure, but this time I’m stumped.
Thanks for any help!
Vanilla minecraft 1.5.1
delete the meta folder in the jar
dl’d modloader
copy files into jar
blackscreen.
no other mods installed, nothing.
win7
ooooo
xD >:-D
freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeestyle
You guy are nerds you now that. You should talk to your and tell him to put v1.6.0 alpha on there.
Losers put v1.6.0 on there.
You need Forge. To (commonly) install it, have mc forge, got .minecraft open the .jar in the bin with whatever .zip file opener u use (It has to be run by the .zip opener btw.) Then delete META – INF, then drag the mc forge files in, and don’t delete the Forge META – INF. SPC requires deleting that META – INF, So that should be the last before Optifine.
