I fr made a datapack in 1.21 and spent 3 WHOLE HOURS trying to figure out why it's not working. Then, I think the minecraft wiki told me to make it singular. WHEN WAS THIS VIDEO WHEN I NEEDED IT?

dude what does my head in is they changed: `loot_tables/blocks` to `loot_table/blocks` and `tags/blocks` to `tags/block` its so bloody pointless.

Please do continue this. My dp's were broken since 1.20 i've since fixed them myself before this vid, but this did cover many of the issues i had

One thing the wiki didn't mention that frustrated my attempts a little was that you can't use a predicate file for a custom enchantment. So I kept seeing conflicting information about the name for the predicate folder, when really the issue was that the enchantment couldn't use a predicate file

Thanks for making this video. I have no idea what is wrong with my datapack when all the commands are working in command block until I saw this video.

My datapack(s) broke in 1.20.5 and 1.21 and I had to make both work at effectively the same time Add to that I spotted inconsistencies in their changes and expect more changes to bring everything in line again I’m working on a new datapack and it’s definitely more advanced than anything I’ve done previously

I still have to do double takes while making textures because resource packs use plurals, and datapacks use singulars.

0:56 that's the same how in Texture packs in some version(i don't remember which one) the folder blocks was changed to block And about the making a series from this, I would realy like another series about downgrading datapacks

@conure512 4 ай бұрын

I'm probably not gonna do any videos for downgrading, for two main reasons: 1) lots of datapacks will be completely impossible to downgrade if they used features that were added in the newer versions, and 2) it can be a genuine challenge to find full documentation for how datapacks used to work. The wiki usually gets updated to the newest version as soon as it's released, and the old documentation is lost. Changelogs still exist, but those usually aren't fully comprehensive when it comes to the actual syntax (they just give an overview of the implications of the changes).

You sould learn to use log and console because your bug could have been fix in minutes if you had use the console! (Enable it in the settings of the launcher and restart your game) When you reload, every broken file will have an error and telll exactly why it's broken

Big thanks for the vid, probably helped out a lot of people. I figured it out on my own after trying stuff for an hour and then just downloading an example pack from the internet. I was like: Dude really, that stupid s messed everything up? Well lets add it to all other file names then. Wait why are my tags no longer working? For all the other commands that changed i just used mc stacker anyway because i cant remember the more complicated or changed stuff for now anyway. I subbed, will love to see your future vids. Well, now its finally time to make a blaster that shoots exploding fish and annoy my friends with it.

I am making a datapack(recently started) in 1.20.1 bebause it requires create mod and farmer's delight. When the mods update to 1.21, I'll need to upgrade too but the recipes and stuff are from create mod. Idk will they update to components in recipes or not

@Satwr 4 ай бұрын

Of course... The old system is no longer in the game, so they/you either need to adapt, reimplement the old system (which would be more work then just updating to components), or rely on something like KubeJS...

@DogsRNice 4 ай бұрын

Modders have it even worse, even minor versions can have huge changes to systems, or have entire systems they use just completely removed, like when they removed block ids that broke a lot of things, or when they changed the underlying way text is rendered, which had no apparent visible effect but completely broke guis in a lot of mods This is why mods often take so long to be updated to new versions
