Combining Resource Packs
We offer a few content packs which require the use of a resource pack. This tutorial will quickly guide you through the process of combing packs if you need to.
Why would I need to combine resource packs?
Minecraft currently only supports one server resource pack being loaded at a time. This is an issue. If you have multiple resource packs across multiple products, it means you can only use one at a time. If you combine two resource packs into one, you no longer have this problem.
Downloading the resource packs
Within the skript file you get with one of our products, you'll find a line similar to this.
Copy and paste the link provided into your browser. This will start an instant download of the resource pack. You will need to do this for all of the packs you want to merge.
You might also find the pack link in your server settings.
Combining Resource Packs
Once you have both packs downloaded, you need to move them to a new folder or desktop. On windows, you can drag the zip files to your desktop or right-click the file --> send to --> desktop. Once the files are in the location you want to work with them, right click and click "Extract All". Press "Extract" on the popup menu.
Open both folders. Select one at random - it doesn't really matter which. In the folder you selected, right click "assets" and click "copy". Open the second folder, right click anywhere (apart from on a file, still within the window) and click paste.
If a window pops up saying that there is already a file named that in the destination (see image below), then there is an issue.
It shouldn't occur if you're combing any of our products with other products made by us, however, compatibility may clash between other packs. We're happy to help you with this issue, just open a ticket on discord.
Testing and uploading your combined pack
Once you've combined your two packs, lets make sure it works! Press Windows Key + R to open the run window. Inside this box, type %appdata% and click "run". This will open up a file explorer window. Click .minecraft --> resourcepacks. In this folder, paste the entire resource pack folder (the one which you copied assets into). Once you've done this, head into minecraft and make sure everything that the pack is meant to modify is modified. If the pack works, you can sign up to dropbox.com and upload the resource pack folder there. Copy the link in your URL and change the dl = 0 to dl=1 (this means the server can download it). Apply this resource pack in the skript file and reload it! You're now good to go!
Make sure the resource pack is back in a .zip format! To do this, right click the folder, click send to and compressed folder.
