Pack format
This feature is exclusive to Java Edition.
This article is missing information about: Data pack format tables are several weeks out of date
Please expand the article to include this information. Further details may exist on the talk page.
Pack format, sometimes referred to as pack version, is a number used in pack.mcmeta to describe what Java Edition versions a resource pack or data pack is compatible with. Each version specifies the pack formats it supports in its version.json. The pack format can be obtained by running /version, or using the F3 + V debug hotkey.
Pack formats help Minecraft identify whether a resource or data pack was built for the correct version of the game. If the format number in a pack's pack.mcmeta file is higher than the one the game supports, the pack appears as "incompatible". This system ensures that new pack features introduced in later versions do not cause crashes or missing content in older ones.
Technical details
Each pack format corresponds to specific internal changes in how Minecraft reads data or assets. These include updates to registries, loot tables, tags, advancements, and model syntax. Both resource packs and data packs use the same numbering system but apply it differently:
- Data packs focus on gameplay logic – structures, recipes, tags, loot tables, and functions.
- Resource packs deal with textures, models, block states, sounds, and text assets.
For example, when upgrading from format 12 to 15, several JSON structures (such as predicates and item components) changed to match new engine rules.
A minimal pack.mcmeta example looks like this:
{
"pack": {
"description": "Example datapack for Minecraft 1.21",
"pack_format": 48
}
}
If this number does not match the game's supported format, Minecraft displays a warning in the pack list.
Since 25w31a, the pack format has been changed to work with "min_format" and "max_format" fields instead of the previous "pack_format" field. Both data packs and resource packs have this change.
Here is an example of a pack.mcmeta file for version 1.21.9:
{
"pack": {
"description": "Example datapack for Minecraft 1.21.9",
"min_format": 88,
"max_format": 88
}
}
