    How to install Minecraft Data Packs

    Introduction:

    For 10 years I've been making resource packs that change the game's music according to my mood, my current play and game style or for a specific theme/meme. It always bothered me how I never found an easy to use template pack so when I take a break I won't have to look at Mojang's changed game indexes, search the hash codes one by one in notepad to see whether or not my previous music pack is still useable or the devs completely change the system. Today I spent 3 hours just to double check and make sure that I created a well working template pack for custom music thus all I have to do is replace the empty/hollow files inside and zip it to make a new resource pack. I can only hope Mojang won't change the system with the upcoming 1.17 update and all I'll have to do is to add a few other files to the template.

    Features:

    • Everything is in their respective place signifying what music it is
    • The files are hollow thus small file size is expected
    • Easy download
    • Easy replacement
    • Just zip it when you've replaced the music you wish to use

    How to use:

    1. Download the .zip file
    2. Unzip it into a folder
    3. Open the assets folder then go to >minecraft>sounds>music or records depending which one you want to change
    4. Look up their names on Youtube, for example in case of records "Minecraft 11.ogg" then you can listen which song it is (WARNING! You cannot play the .ogg files in this template resource pack as music files for I'm not allowed to redistribute Mojang's music and as I mentioned above these files are empty shortcut files. Mere placeholders for you to see which music file contains the given music originally by name. You cannot play and listen to them. Stop asking and reporting that you can't! Obviously you can't...)
    5. Download a song you wish to replace it with in .ogg file format (I personally use 4k video downloader to download and convert in one go but there are several other tools as well)
    6. After you are finished with replacing the music you wish to use in-game, delete all the other .ogg files you haven't modified (This is very important. If you don't delete the files you haven't modified the game won't play anything in their place once the resource pack is active since they're empty shortcut files)
    7. Modify the pack.mcmeta in your downloaded "Custom Music & Recording Hollow Template 1.0.0" directory with the appropriate description of what you modified and then the pack.png if you want to use custom cover art
    8. ZIP the assets folder, pack.mcmeta and pack.png then you're good to go
    Congrats! You've made a custom music pack/resource pack!

    I did everything step by step, Texture pack, changed the sound.ogg with audacity but when I put the texture pack in its just empty, no sounds coming out jukebox, it says 0 mb so maybe its not enabled for me, when I try to click on the music in texture pack files it doesn't work because my pc doesn't have anything to let .ogg sounds, I don't know if that is a problem

    Neither do I what is the problem but something certainly is for a resource pack that has any files in it, especially audio CANNOT be 0 mb. If it's 0 mb then it doesn't have the audio in it for sure.

    when i zip the file and put it in resource pack folders it doesnt show up, do i delete the folders that i didnt use aswell (e.g. only changed the records so do i only delete the other .ogg files or everything that i didnt use(i tried both and still didnt show up in the resource packs section ingame)(do i need to change anything else in the pack.mcmeta?(can i leave it as a txt file when changing things?))

    Nope. A few days ago I just made a music pack based on this and worked just fine. You sure did something wrong unintentionally. In the following day offs of mine, I'll try to make a comprehensive video tutorial of how-to-make a music resource pack, that'll maybe help.

    nvm got it working, accidentally was compressing the whole folder instead of just the things in the folder

    For me the music will get quiet when I modify a disc and walk away. I don't know what causes the reverse in your case.

    Updated pack.mcmeta yesterday to support 1.19.3. Should work fine for now.

    Honestly, I think it would have been a great idea to put placeholder sounds, such as silence, to be in place of the ogg files.

    It doesn't surprise me how many complaints there are about empty oggs not deleting.



    I appreciate the template, however, so thank you!
