1.20.1 Raycast Doesn't Work in 1.20.4 | Datapack Hub | Page 1

My Portal Gun Mod uses a raycast to spawn portals where I look. Now, it just spawns portals on top of the players head for some reason. How do I fix this? I think maybe it has something to do with my tags? I'll link a download to the datapack if that will help.

Ah, the classic grass change

#

Yep it's the tags

#

In 1.20.4 they changed grass to short_grass, which would break your tag

The logs will tell you if something doesn’t load and what the error is

#

(Most of the time)

#

So it’s good to check it when facing any error

spice sun Jun 3, 2024, 11:48 AM

[Render thread/WARN]:
Not all defined tags for registry ResourceKey[minecraft:root / minecraft:block] are present in data pack: portal_gun:ignore, techno_gow_weapons:pass_through

#

spice sun Jun 3, 2024, 11:49 AM

#

white rain Jun 3, 2024, 11:50 AM

#

spice sun Jun 3, 2024, 11:54 AM

#

Optimisation mods shouldn't cause those issues

white rain Jun 3, 2024, 12:00 PM

#
