Talk:Tutorials/Creating a data pack

Tags
I think function/block tags should be mentioned here, too, especially the -tag, as for most datapacks, it will be essential to add functions to them. Also, this is one of the few examples, where you actually need to modify contents of a namespace that is not your own. 178.201.167.142 18:02, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

Issue with pack.mcmeta
I have noticed that the game doesn't recognise otherwise correct  files that are written with raw text editors. Instead, using a JSON editor works. I'm not sure if this issue is exclusive to my operating system (macOS), so I'd want to hear if anyone else has encountered the same issue. Maybe it should be mentioned in Troubleshooting. – Erufailon4 (talk) 09:46, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

The  files are the same with the ones in resource packs. On my operating system (Windows), it works with both raw text editors and JSON editors. You can try https://jsonlint.com/ to check your json code.--Skylord wars (talk) 11:08, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
