Did you check the output logs? They should tell you if there is an error, where it is and sometimes even what exactly it is.

How did you create it? With misodes generator? Did you select the correct minecraft version?

People generally don’t want to download a full data pack just to do trivial debugging, so sending the file where the error might be or the part in the logs where the error is show is a lot quicker

A lot of ppl can’t even do that because they are on phone (like me rn :D)

:information_source: Default Launcher Logs

The logs are where Minecraft displays errors when something goes wrong and can thus help you gain information about why something isn't working for you!
To open the logs:

1. Enable logs in the Minecraft Launcher
2. Start your game (or restart it if you already have an open instance)
3. Enjoy spotting errors getting much easier!

[dusk anvil]

ok

i will send log

wait

are these ones good

[dusk anvil]

made it manually trying to follow a youtube tutorial

i looked up the pack version needed in the minecraft wiki

this instance has mods so idk if that affects something

[long crystal]

Im on phone so I can’t see files — also diggin through those takes a long time, just screenshotting or copying the relevant parts is a lot more efficient

[dusk anvil]

the regular custom dimension seems to exist in the pack and work but not the custom worldtype

i will look through the logs

[long crystal]

The pack version doesn’t change anything other than the "incompatible" warning

[long crystal]

It can definitely affect it, yes

This website js generators for pretty much every json file in DPs and RPs

You can try creating the world preset with this

It has a version select in the top right

[dusk anvil]

an earlier version of the pack with only the custom dimension worked

when i tried adding the custom world preset though

its simply not there

is this a datapack related error or is this unrelated

nah this is tooearly in the log

for it to be related

i think

[long crystal]

See how it says DEBUG in the beginning of the line? Your error is probably prefixed with ERROR

[dusk anvil]

let me create another world
to see if the pack still functions at all

wait

this might be it

let me check the datapack code

well json is not really code is it

[dusk anvil]

do you know what these two values exactly do?
im not sure what i want to change them to

i didnt really get it

wait is this even the cause of the error

i cant tell

[long crystal]

The light at which mobs spawn
Light level being the overall brightness and block light level being the brightness from blocks (like torches or glowstone)

[long crystal]

Don’t think so

[dusk anvil]

testing the pack

the error should be in the biome file maybe?

but no it cant be that

im suspecting the world preset code not the dimension code

cuz dimension works

[dusk anvil]

is this even how i am supposed to do this

im thinking i ustve messed something up here

[long crystal]

This should work when holding shift I think (?) because the extended one has the debug world in it

You can also rename the file to normal.json, then it should work all the time

[dusk anvil]

let me tes tthat

[long crystal]

What you are doing here, is adding to the vanilla files — hence the change in behavior

[dusk anvil]

yes it does work, i was misunderstanding the difference between normal and extended

so its solved

thanks

i just changed it to normal
