15+ Cool Datapacks for Minecraft 1.19 & 1.18.2!

Hey guys, it’s been a while since I’ve covered a  Data Pack video. So today we’re going to showcase   some Data Packs released over the past 2 to  3 months that are currently available for   Minecraft 1.19. There’s a lot more I’m waiting  to cover, but Optifine still isn’t available  

When I was putting this video together,  so I’ve recorded this on Minecraft 1.18. The next few Datapacks are all from the  same developer, and will overhaul individual   structures. This first one will change the  Pillager Outpost. And as you can see, it’s  

Much larger, with it looking like a huge tower.  Although the interior of an Outpost isn’t changed   much at all, as it mostly consists of empty  floors, until you reach the very top. You can   find a few Chests spawning inside, as well as on  the top floor, with plenty of Pillagers to kill.

This next pack changes Shipwrecks instead.  They should now have a more interesting design,   with them being a lot larger too.  They still function the exact same,   so expect to come across them  often, with them containing Chests.  

Shipwrecks are able to spawn as a few different  designs too, and they look a lot more majestic   overall. Interiors are also slightly changed,  but you don’t have to worry about the mod being   overpowered in any way, as the amount of  loot you come across is basically the same.

There’s also the option to change Ocean Ruins.  In general, the designs are changed slightly   so that they look more sophisticated  and old. A lot of them look like they   could come from Ancient Greece, and  they make good use of Prismarine too.

Install Better Villages to find these fantasy  looking towns. They won’t replace Vanilla   Villages, they’re just a new structure that you  might find in locations like the Plains Biome. The   buildings are a lot bigger than those in regular  Villages, and you’ll still find Villagers spawning  

Throughout. A lot of the buildings are decorated,  allowing Villagers to have professions. With them   being so big, there’s also multiple floors, and  you’ll often come across Chests you can search. Instead of overhauling the existing Desert  Pyramid, this pack adds a new Pyramid instead.  

You can occasionally find these spawning in  Deserts, and they shouldn’t be too hard to spot   due to their size. There’s entrances on each  side of the structure, and inside you’ll find   a huge room made up of Pillars. Around the edges  of the Pyramid are different tombs, which contain  

Spawners and Chests. There’s a few Gold Blocks  which can be collected here too. Most of the loot   can be found at the top of the Pyramid, which you  can scale from the outside, or build your way up  

To. There’s even more spawners up here, as well  as lots of Chests, Iron Blocks and Gold Blocks. Finally, there’s this pack which will change  Ruined Portals instead. They’ll have a bit   more foliage and Nether related blocks around  them. The Portals themselves can also spawn as  

Different sizes, with some of them being much  taller. If you like the look of these packs,   it’s worth keeping an eye on the developers page,  as they might overhaul more structures soon. You can install this Datapack to add 5 different  Butterflies into Minecraft. You’re able to kill  

Them to have a chance of collecting their body for  display. Or you can craft a Bug Net from 2 Sticks,   1 Cobweb and 1 String. When catching a Butterfly  in a Bug Net, you can release it in a location of  

Your choice. There’s also a menu allowing you  to summon the Butterflies whenever you’d like. You’ll now be able to display your Banners  like a Flag, so they sit horizontally.   With this Data Pack installed, just sneak and  right click while holding a Banner, to attach  

It to a compatible block. Some items you can  attach them to are Fences, Walls and Iron Bars. Waystones can be crafted from 3  Polished Andesite, 2 Amethyst Shards,   1 Lodestone and 1 Eye of Ender. You’ll then  need to take it into an Anvil and rename it,  

Like Village. Place the Waystone down in  a location that you want to teleport too,   it’s 3 blocks high. When you interact  with a Waystone, you can see a list of   all other activated Waystones, and then teleport  between them. You’re able to break Waystones and  

Move them around, or rename them, and you  can have 28 activated Waystones at once. With 3 Sticks and a Torch, you  can craft a Throwable Torch.   When you right click while holding this item,  you can throw a Torch which will stick to the  

First block it hits. The item is only able  to fire 4 Torches before being consumed,   so it’s best to craft a few of these. They’re able  to stack too, so that you can carry 16 per slot. Deathpoint will cause a Barrel to spawn when you  die, which contains all your items and experience.  

After dying, the coordinates  will also be visible in the chat,   and you can point towards the Barrel,  and see how many items are inside.   So you don’t have to worry about items  despawning with this data pack installed.

Awesome Dungeon, which I’ve mentioned a few times  on my channel is now available as a data pack.   With it installed, you can come across  places like the Giant Jungle Tree,   the Witch Castle, the Abandoned Oak  Palace and the Desert Temple Husk.   When clearing out these locations,  you’ll come across Vanilla mobs,  

And also receive loot from the Vanilla tables.  You can expand on this data pack further,   as releases are also made available which add  dungeons to the Nether and End too, which you can   find on the developers profile. The ones that I’m  showcasing here all exist in just the Overworld.

This data pack is very cute. During the night,  lots of Minecrafts creatures will fall asleep,   taking up some different positions. Some will even  sleep standing up, like Sheep. Whereas Wolves will   lay down and curl up. It’s really impressive,  and I think it would be cool to have a feature  

Like this implemented into the vanilla game.  Although sometimes the creatures look dead,   and I’m sure some slight breathing  animations would help with that.   Even Pillagers need to take a  rest from all their raiding. Apollo’s Additional Structures currently adds 3  structures into Minecraft. These are the Campsite,  

Small Ruins and Mangrove Swamp Hut. These have  some different variations, so they’re at least   a little unique. And in the future, the developer  plans to add more structures to this data pack. To obtain a Storage Plus Barrel,  place down 5 blocks of Redstone,  

Add Water to the middle  and then throw in a Barrel.   This Barrel is able to hold 24 items, and you can  repeatedly upgrade it using different materials,   which unlocks more pages. It acts a lot  like a Shulker Box, so you can break it,  

Place it down again and all your items will  remain inside, so it’s pretty useful overall. You can add Fireflies into Minecraft with  this data pack. It spawns in particles,   and has them move around and fade out in an  attempt to make them look like fireflies.  

It definitely helps with ambience, and  maybe you’ll want to add it to your world. This pack will allow you to hire a Wandering  Trader. First, you need to interact with them   while holding a Golden Axe, and they need to  accept your offer, which they won’t always do.  

You’ll be given a Trade Stand Axe in  return. When you hold this Axe and press   F, it will summon a Trading Stand. When  you interact with the Wandering Trader,   you can choose items you want to sell, and what  you want to sell it for. Other players can then  

Come and interact with your Wandering Trader,  and buy your items even if you’re offline. That’s the end of this list. I’ll do another  one soon, as this video was more about data   packs that are compatible on both Minecraft 1.18  and 1.19, instead of solely the latest version.  

Make sure to check out my channel too, as I’ve  been covering lots of mods and resource packs.
