I haven't used a datapack before, but I have used resource packs and am running a java paper server. How so I / can I use incendium?

Thanks!

You actually just download the zip file from #1087096245228679330, don’t unzip it, open your server world folder and locate datapacks; Paste and you are ready to play!

so there's no 'datapacks' folder in my nether world, just my over world...

#

Is there a way I can tell it's working?

paper sorts worlds stupidly

ionic saddle
#

How can I tell if this is working? I've created a new nether world and I'm not really seeing any changes

#

oh wait, do I have to name the nether world [myworld]_nether?

#

no, tried that, still not seeing anything different

ruby sphinx
#

what is the output of /datapack list ?

Hey @ionic saddle, did we resolve your question? If so, close the support with /close. Thank you!

datapack list does not show incendium- I've moved it around to a few different location, restarted the server... no go

#

make sure incendium is in the world/datapacks folder

#

that is the only place datapacks work in

#

if after that, incendium still isnt in /datapack list, where did you download it from?

ionic saddle
#

by "world" do you mean "whatevermyworldnameis" or does it need to literally be in "world"

#

you downloaded the jar, which is the mod version

#

grab the zip (datapack) from github

#

link in #1087096245228679330

ionic saddle
#

ah

#

thanks

#

so I should regen the nether world to get the new biomes, right?

ruby sphinx
#

yes

ionic saddle
#

keep it in the zip, or unzip it into a folder in datapacks?

ruby sphinx
#

keep it zipped

ionic saddle
#

cool

ruby sphinx
#

basically act like its that jar file, except its a zip

ionic saddle
#

works!

#

spawn is an upside down forest

#

thanks!

#

are there new mobs or just changes to mob behavior?

#

I do scripting in denizen and I'm wondering what new things, if any I might be able to use via scripting

ruby sphinx
#

new mobs

#

its been a long time since i heard someone talking about denizen, but i highly doubt you can script with incendium stuff

#

incendium is a datapack - it doesnt actually add news items/mobs. it uses vanilla mobs and gives them vanilla commands to make them seem custom

#

but i am 100% unfamiliar with denizen beyond what someone mentioned probably over a year ago, so i could be wrong

ionic saddle
#

cool, I'll ask around their forums.

#

did I read that it changes build height?

ruby sphinx
#

yes, it does

ionic saddle

thanks!!
