DatapacksJava
Ask Merl!
This is a simple parody datapack of the "I don't know" Minecraft.net support AI, Merl. (NOT connected to the real AI!)
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
What does the datapack?
- Adds the
/trigger ask-merlcommand- When used a Merl mannequin spawns nearby
- On interaction opens a dialog menu and you can ask Merl questions...
- When used a Merl mannequin spawns nearby
Note: This isn't a serious datapack
It's just a simple parody datapack, even though I'm late to the Merl meme
