these are minecraft mods

#

for some reason they have their own datapacks

lucid oak
#

Ok fine

neat stag
#

i guess theyre automatically named after the mod file???

lucid oak
#

so it's datapckkkk.zip?

neat stag
#

had exact same setup on Windows 10 on same PC and it worked

neat stag
#

but yes

#

here is me adding it to the folder

#

and the game doesnt see it

lucid oak
#

What does the zip file look like?

neat stag
#

im thinking maybe something doesnt have permission

#

maybe the game cant see the file

#

it did ask me for my password to open the zip file from inside the temp folder

#

how do i run mc with sudo permissions
maybe that'd help??

lucid oak
#

No you shouldn't need to do that

lucid oak
neat stag
#

then what am i supposed to do

lucid oak
#

You need data and pack.mcmeta in the root of the zip file

neat stag
#

oh its the folder

#

wait let me check

#

i swear i had a different zip file too
