Hello everyone,

I've last used CC some years ago, very happy to see the tweaked version.

I placed my rom files in the know location but the path seems changed. Found some reddit post to place files in world/data or world/datapack. I can't get them to work. Anyone an answer to where to place the rom files?

Thanks in advance,
Guido.

Solved the issue:
* Go to the world/datapacks directory
* Create a directory with the name of your choice (I used 'guido')
* Create a file 'pack.mcmeta' with:
{
  "pack": {
    "pack_format": 7,
    "description": "Tutorial Data Pack"
  }
}
(see https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Tutorials/Creating_a_data_pack)
* Create these directories: data\computercraft\lua\rom inside world\datapacks\guido
* Place your rom files into world\datapacks\guido\data\computercraft\lua\rom
* Maybe reload datapacks on the server, minecraft command '/reload'
* Your pack should be visable using command '/datapack list available'
* If not, try '/datapack list enabled' in case it is already enabled
* Enable using '/datapack enable <your pack name goes here>'
* computers and turtle are most likely to have lost data, use ctrl-r to reboot

To clarify for anyone worrying, you don't lose data. The computers and turtles just get detached from ROM and a reboot fixes it. No data is actually lost, the computers and turtles just can't access it until they reboot.

This seems to be caused by the /reload command and happens with the files built into the mod as well as those added by the data pack, so you have to use ctrl+r as the reboot program will be inaccessible.
