Hey Joaquin, I already provide a pre-built version of my app that can be downloaded from the page I linked to above: https://github.com/aetherknight/build_minecraft_java_7_launcher/releases It is available using the green download link, instead of one of the source code download links. I just updated the description on that page to make that more clear.

FTB, Technic, etc. don't release Mac apps, they only release jar files for mac. If you have a newer version of Java installed, double clicking a Jar will usually run the newer Oracle Java instead of Apple's older Java 6.

That said, I created a little app a few months ago as a workaround that will take the existing Minecraft Launcher.app, and create a new one that is Java-version agnostic (done this way to avoid redistributing the Minecraft app). Basically, it replaces the Apple Java 6 stub binary with a shell script that will try to run whatever version of Java is installed. You can get it at: https://github.com/aetherknight/build_minecraft_java_7_launcher/releases
