the textures in the datapack don't work, for example for the hammer I have the texture of the iron pickaxe

Datapack Version

Just to check a few things:

  • Have you placed the zip file in your resource packs folder as well?
  • Is it at the top of the list in the resource pack menu?
commented

no I didn't put it in the resource file

commented

I've just looked and I don't have a pack resources folder because I use paper te and I don't think it creates a pack resources folder.

commented

The zip file you download acts as both a resource pack and data pack, and must be installed in both locations for it to work. You've already installed it as a datapack, so you're halfway there!

Just take the same file (JakesBuildTools-v2.1.3-Data-Resource-Pack.zip) and place it in your "resourcepacks" folder as you would a normal resource pack, then make sure it's selected and loaded! For more information on installing resourcepacks see here: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Tutorial:Loading_a_resource_pack

I think I forgot to mention that I'm trying to do it on a paper server.

commented

I see, you've got 2 options then. You either have your players install the resourcepack themselves, or you set the resourcepack to be the server's resourcepack, see the guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCVPgn3IppU

commented

ok thanks I'll let you know if it works

commented

I've done everything as in the video and it still doesn't work

commented

I'll need you to be a bit more specific, which bit doesn't work?

Do you get the pop-up to install the resourcepack when you join the server? If not, then you haven't followed the steps correctly

commented

no I don't have the pop up and yet I followed the video correctly I modified my server.properties as said in the video with MCPacks so I don't know why it doesn't work.

commented

I sadly can't help much more than this, I would suggest asking in the PaperMC discord for assistance on how to set a server resourcepack

Just to reiterate, your options are:

  • Install the resourcepack yourself, and have all your players do the same
  • Or set the resourcepack as the server's resourcepack using the video linked above

I'm going to close this issue as it's not an issue with the datapack itself, but I wish you luck!

commented

ah that's OK, it's just my server that had been restarted incorrectly - thanks for your help in any case
