The CurseForge launcher places data packs in the resource packs directory (don't ask me why) and the Modrinth app creates a new folder called "datapacks". The problem is that Data Packs aren't loaded into either "resourcepacks" or "datapacks".

You need to add one of these folders to the config by hand to get data packs working. Add these two folder paths to the config by default so that data packs from Curse Forge or Modrinth will work without having to change the config file.

thanks

Hello, on 1.20.4 OpenLoader will already load data packs from the resourcepacks folder. This feature is enabled by default but you may want to check the loadResourcePackData config option if it's not working for you. The datapacks folder used by Modrinth is not supported yet, but will be soon.

On older versions, you can already load from both folders by adding them to the config as you mentioned. It's not as convenient but I don't think I will have time to backport, especially with 1.20.5 coming out.

I'm on 1.20.1. The version isn't that old after all.
