Hello, I have created a resource pack for my server and I have used it for myself. However I wanted to make it so players would download it when they join... But it wont work. I even bought a Pro MediaFire account (because it has direct links) but still... it wont work?

here is what is looks like.

resource-pack=www.mediafire.com/download/79ud8mxw0tz1vxh/VindexCraft_AudioPack_1.0.zip

That didn't work so I tried

resource-pack=www.mediafire.com/download/79ud8mxw0tz1vxh/VindexCraft_AudioPack_1.0.zip?dl=1

That ALSO didn't work! every time I do that it changes the link and then it looks like this ->

resource-pack=http\://www.mediafire.com/download/79ud8mxw0tz1vxh/VindexCraft_AudioPack_1.0.zip

It messes up the link and it doesn't download for anyone on the server.

I think its a direct link, because that's what I bought the account for. now I feel like I just wasted my money :/
