 Description   

Hello, we have problems with downloading the unmodified files for making our own Add-Ons (Vanilla Resource Pack and Vanilla Behaviour Pack).

Based on your installation instructions, the device should prompt us to open the packs with Minecraft but it doesn't. It prompts us to open the files with the "Animation+ app". There is the option to choose from other applications but Minecraft is not among them (we did not find any way how to add it there). So we can't launch Minecraft with the files.

We tried more times, restarted the device ... no change.

Before we tried to download the Vanilla packs, we had downloaded the two add-ons samples (Alien Invasion and Castle Siege) and there were no problems - the iPad had prompted us to open both files with Minecraft.

Picture of the screen is included (It is in the czech language ... "Otevrit v aplikaci" means "Open with application" and "Dalsi" means "Others".)

Thank you.

Monika Travnickova

monitrav: Resource packs must have extension ".mcpack" not ".zip" in order to be recognized by MCPE. Rename it and it should work.

Those things you can edit your add-ons! You need a file app like Documents 5 app to edit your addon! Then when you are done with your addons, you can test it from your addon! This is not the bug!

According to the changelog this should be fixed by 1.0.2

We find out that in the installation instructions you write about .mcpacks but both files are .packs ... could be this the reason why it does not work?
