Verify the Pack is Active

Check your world's data pack list to confirm the randomization pack is enabled. Load into the world and break a block—you should receive an item different from what you'd normally expect. If you get standard drops (dirt from dirt, wood from logs), the pack isn't running.

Check Your Game Version

The pack supports versions 1.19 through 1.21. If you're on an older or newer version, the pack may not function correctly. Verify your launcher is set to a compatible version.

Break Multiple Block Types

If you're not finding desired items, you may simply be unlucky. Try breaking different block types—stone, dirt, sand, gravel, and ores—to increase variety in your drops. Some blocks might have different randomization pools.

Restart Your World

If drops seem stuck or the pack stops working mid-session, exit to title screen and reload. Occasionally data packs need a fresh load to function properly. If problems persist after reload, remove and re-add the pack to your world.
