So, I was looking up Minecraft mods and saw one I liked. However it said you needed Java 7 or higher. I updated my Java to Java 8 but when I ran the java -version command in Terminal, it said 1.6.0. When I checked Minecraft's launcher log while it was booting up, it said "1.6.0". I have Java 8 installed, but nothing says so? I need it to run the mod. Anyone know why? The laptop I am currently using is a MacBook running OSX 10.9. Thanks for helping if you do :)
