Are Emulators allowed?

Are launchers/emulators allowed? (TLauncher and the likes). Because my friend told me that it is allowed because it won't make any differences. Sorry in advance if this question is unnecessary or i just missed a rule. :)

TLauncher is not an emulator. You cannot emulate Minecraft. TLauncher is supposedly allowed but it is piracy so use at your own risk. The only thing that could ban it would be the mods saying it's banned or SRC itself stating that piracy will get your account banned.

Emulators are banned on any modern game and (mostly) every platform that is not emulated very accurately to the original game on the original console.

Emulators are banned. Tlauncher is also banned.

I’m pretty sure you got emulators and launchers mixed up, they are different, an emulator is a program that allows playing a game which isnt available on your platform or basically pretending that youre playing it on a different platform, launchers are just minecraft launchers that let you play the gane and add some features, however some of them are cheat clients or are piracy, which means most of them aren’t allowed.

TLauncher is illegal

Hungary

yes, piracy is illegal. however, using tlauncher doesn't invalidate your speedrun

i mean probably no one is going to notice it is a pirated version if it has no hack client or kind of lol

@TheGreatestRoman using tlauncher invalidates runs as it is specifically banned.

@spex-Lolli yeah people be like "24 euros? damn why would i spend that on a game i can get free"

@SheepHello what luke said, you cant emulate minecraft, is not an emulator, is allowed or not based on legacity of the launcher; and idk what is the chinese version but if is diferent than the original to play is banned because of that

Hungary

multimc and the default launcher are the only launchers allowed to my knowledge

Hungary

@kingdinocharge i see, personally i think it's a bit unclear from the wording and they should elaborate on it further
