Apex Hosting

[wild galleon]

I dont know a lot about datapacks but i installed FTF into my world that i run on ApexHosting. Will this work? How would you do it just to make sure i did it right?

To run From The Fog on your Apex Hosting server, you should use the datapack version as it's suitable for servers. Here's a brief guide to ensure you've set it up correctly:

1. Access Your Server Files:

   • Log in to your Apex Hosting control panel.
   • Go to the "FTP File Access" section to access your server files.

2. Upload the Datapack:

   • Open the "world" folder (or the name of the world you are using).
   • Locate the "datapacks" folder within your world folder.
   • Upload the From The Fog datapack .zip file here. Do not extract it; just upload the .zip file.

3. Resourcepack:

   • Since the resourcepack is the same as the datapack .zip, ensure you download it and enable it on your Minecraft client to see the proper textures.

4. Restart Your Server:

   • Go back to your server control panel and restart your server to apply the changes.

5. Verify Installation:

   • Once back in the game, run the command /datapack list to see if the datapack is listed and marked as [enabled].

If Herobrine doesn't start appearing or odd structures don't form after 3 in-game days, ensure the resourcepack is correctly installed on your client. If you encounter issues, feel free to ask for more support!

If all of this works and your question is resolved, please let me know!

how do i make sure the resourcepack is correctly installed?

[grand vault]

To ensure the resourcepack is correctly installed, follow these steps:

1. Download the Resourcepack:

   • Make sure you have the same .zip file that you uploaded as the datapack. This file acts as both the resourcepack and the datapack.

2. Install the Resourcepack:

   • Start Minecraft and go to the main menu.
   • Click on "Options" and then "Resource Packs."
   • Click "Open Resource Pack Folder" to open the folder on your computer.
   • Place the .zip file you downloaded into this folder.

3. Enable the Resourcepack:

   • Back in the Minecraft Resource Packs menu, you should see the pack listed on the left under “Available.”
   • Click the arrow icon next to the resourcepack to move it to the “Selected” section on the right.
   • Ensure the resource pack is positioned above the default Minecraft pack. If you are using mods like Forge, ensure mod resources are above Minecraft in the order if needed.

4. Check for Proper Display:

   • Join the server (or a world with the datapack active) to verify that the textures and assets are displaying correctly. If Herobrine looks like disc fragments or black dots, then the resourcepack isn't enabled correctly.

If everything works properly after following these steps, you should be good to go! If you encounter any issues, feel free to ask for additional help. Let me know if this resolves your issue!

what versions of minecraft will this work on

[grand vault]

From The Fog is designed to work with specific versions of Minecraft. Unfortunately, I don't have the exact version numbers at the moment. However, it's important to check the mod or datapack page for compatibility details with various Minecraft versions to ensure you're using a supported one.

i would be careful because you could corrupt your server if you don't reset the world before going to a previous version
