Minecraft behavior packs

Hi there, and thank you for reaching out. My name is Aileen, and I am an Independent Advisor here to give you guidance. Before we begin, could you let me know if you're using the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft on your PS5?

From what you’ve described, it sounds like your behavior pack (animations) is loading, but the resource pack (textures) isn’t applying properly when re-enabled. This is a common hiccup when switching packs around—especially on console where file handling is more limited.

Here are a few things you can try to get both the animations and texture pack working together again:

1. Double-check the order of your packs. In Minecraft’s world settings (before loading into the world):

Go to Add-Ons > Resource Packs

Make sure both the animation and texture packs are active

If both are there, try moving the texture pack to the top of the list

This can force Minecraft to prioritize the textures over the base ones.

2. Check for pack dependencies. Some texture packs depend on specific behavior packs or must be activated together in a certain order.

If “actions and stuff” is a combined pack, it may need to be applied as a bundle—not separately. Try:

Removing both packs completely from the world

Re-adding them by first activating the resource pack, then the behavior pack

3. Try creating a new test world. Sometimes an old world can bug out and refuse to apply packs even when they’re enabled.

Create a new world

Activate both the animation and texture pack from scratch

See if both work in the new environment

If it works there, your old world might have a corrupt pack reference.

4. Pack limitations on PlayStation. Some third-party packs or custom bundles aren’t fully supported or might partially fail on PlayStation, even if animations load. If this is a marketplace pack, it should work—but if it’s a custom or imported one, console limits may block parts of it.

Let me know if it’s from the Minecraft Marketplace or something manually imported via another method.

Once I know more about the version and where you got the pack, I can help narrow it down even more.

There is a app called mc addons if you install that than go to the mod site of your choice on your pc or phone if you have a USB adapter(The mod has to be in bedrock edition )

My choice of website is https://mcpedl.com/

You download the mod to the USB then plug the USB into the xbox.

When you plug the USB into the xbox open up mc addons and press import.

There it will show the files on your xbox including the USB, you want to click on the USB and then find your mod or map pack and press on it to import it.

Once imported you want to open minecraft and make a new world (If its a map pack just look through your worlds and it will be there)

Scroll down to resource pack (if it has a resource pack in the file) and find the resource pack for the mod.

Then scroll down to behavior pack and put in the behavior pack (some mods need special settings to work).

This method also works for just resource packs

I know how to do add ons but yhe behavior pack wont work

I believe the Minecraft mods are stored locally and are not linked with your Microsoft account. You might be able to transfer the mods by hosting a modded Minecraft world on your PS4, and then joining that hosted world with you PS5. When it asks if you want to download resources/behavior packs, click yes. I believe that this should save those mods as cached data on your PS5 version of Minecraft.

It has been a few years since I modded Minecraft and I don't have any PlayStation console so I might be wrong on the transfer...

I followed your instructions. The skin packs are listed, but when I actually try to use the Doctor Who Volume 1 skins, they're all locked in Minecraft. I tried to uninstall them, but Xbox One ignores my uninstall requests.

I uninstalled Skin Pack 2 then installed again: the percentage indicator progressed from 0% to 100%, but at 100% Xbox One said "Installation stopped" due to some error. This is the same behavior I've seen for every other installation attempt for Skin Pack
