Hey, everyone!

Download Here

The instructions are here:

Spoiler Inside: Installing Minecraft 1.9 Prerelease 5
Download the latest prerelease minecraft jar file above. Make sure Minecraft is closed completely. Open up your Minecraft bin directory: Windows XP users: Click Start -> Run, type %APPDATA%\.minecraft\bin and hit Enter. Windows Vista/7 users: Click Start -> type %APPDATA%\.minecraft\bin in the search field and hit Enter. Mac OS X: in Finder menu, click Go -> Home, and navigate to Library/Application Support/minecraft/bin. Linux: using your directory viewer of choice or the command-line, navigate to ~/.minecraft/bin. Rename the minecraft.jar file (the ".jar" may not show up if you do not have file extensions viewable) to "minecraft1.8.1.jar" (or just "minecraft1.8.1" if the .jar is not showing). Move the minecraft.jar file you downloaded into the directory. Restart Minecraft and connect to Eagleworld. If you are getting a version error, go back to the Appdata folder, navigate to .minecraft, and delete the bin directory. Start up Minecraft to re-download 1.8, then repeat steps 1-6.
