#help fixing a datapack (not mine)

There's a datapack I really love using, I pretty much never play without it. However, it only goes to 1.20.6, so I modified it to work on 1.21, but it's still having some errors. I can try my best to explain it and everything, but if someone is more familiar with From The Fog from Lunareclipsestudios that'd be helpful.

I can only get a couple of sightings functions to work, and when they do it's only manuually, they won't happen naturally. I'm not sure why, as the code is very similair though.

And yes, I've changed all the folders such as "predicates" or "functions" to "predicate" and "function" and changed the pack.mcmeta to the correct number, I've seen a lot of stuff and none of it is really helping. I can send the original pack as well as the modified if you need.

What counts as after a while?

That's strange why it doesn't work. The only real breaking change in 1.21 was the folder renames. But you say you can get functions running manually

#

When you run /reload, does anything happen? Does it show the load message of the datapack (if it has one)

bronze apex
#

Ill try later, it's like 4am. It does list and say its enabled with/datapack list though

#

This is more of a specific issue than a general datapack issue, they jist refused to help on the official server and I don't know what else to do

fossil gorge
#

/datapack list just looks for pack.mcmeta. the load function will give you a better indication of whether it's working

bronze apex
#

Okay, I'll be sure to try that soon

#

/reload works fine, and so does /function #minecraft:load

#

Unless I'm looking for something other than "Reloading!" and "Running function watching:main/reload"

fossil gorge
#

OK then.

#

Have you checked the logs for errors?

bronze apex
#

Where would that be?

Output 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!

Open the world, then look for anything in red. Minecraft error messages aren't always great at telling you what's wrong, but they're good enough at showing you where the problem is.

bronze apex
#

Okay wow

#

Big chunk of red

#

I have no idea what I'm looking at

#

I can copy and paste here if you want

#

Or sc

#

Wait hold on

#

I deleted worldgen files in desperation earlier, a lot of the errors were not being able to get achievements about finding structures. I added them back and I'm gonna check again now

#

Well there's only one error

#

"Failed to load function watching:check" (and a lot of text)

bronze marten
#

Can you screenshot that error for us?

bronze apex
bronze marten
#

So there’s a problem with the data/watching/function/check.mcfunction, can you send that?

bronze apex
#

That file?

bronze marten
#

Yeah

bronze apex
#

Oh wait

unkempt sigilBOT
#
Quick Look 
check lol```
bronze apex
#

Whenever I open it all I see is that

bronze marten
#

Yeah that isn’t valid syntax at all

bronze apex
#

Is that file normally in datapacks?

bronze marten
#

That’s a user created file

#

I don’t know what the purpose of it is, or whether it even has a purpose

bronze apex
#

So then is there anything I can do?

bronze marten
#

Try deleting it, if you don’t know why it’s there it might have been put there by accident

bronze apex
#

It's in the original that worked fine, but I'll try

bronze marten
#

You could maybe just put a # at the start of that line to make it a comment

#

Idk exactly how the park works

bronze apex
#

I guess I could wait until the creators make an official 1.21 thing, but they're adding new features so that coukf take too long

#

No erorr message this time

fossil gorge
#

And still nothing's working?

bronze apex
#

Correct

#

I'm assuming it has to do with how this specific pack is coded, so unless you knew how it was made or what it means I don't think theres much we can do ig

bronze marten
#

What pack is it btw?

bronze apex
#

From The Fog by LunarEclipseStudios

#

If you want, I can send both the original and the one I modified or smth

bronze marten
#

Yeah I think your best bet is to wait for them to update it unfortunately

bronze apex
#

Ok, sorry for the waste of time

bronze marten
#

It’s a really big datapack from what I can tell and unless you don’t know how it all works it would be very difficult

bronze marten
bronze apex
#

Do I use uhh

#

/resolve

bronze marten
#

yeah

bronze apex
#

It said it did not respond

bronze marten
#

;-;

#

fossil gorge
#

The bot's not working at the moment

bronze apex
#

bronze marten
#

fossil gorge
#

I'll close this properly when the bot is back up
