We have a fix for this coming in 1.21.20.
Players will no longer be forced to download optional resource packs when joining a multiplayer game. The caveat is that Add-ons are always required to be downloaded, so you'll be given a new choice dialog to decide what you want to download if there are both Add-ons and optional Resource Packs.

there is a bug since 1.20.70 whit resource packs applied in realms, servers and worlds.
Normally you can activate an option to force other players to download resource packs but now it just makes all players to download resource packs even if that optión is not marked in setting.
Before this bug, a "download" and a "join" option used to show when entering the world but now there is just an "download or leave" option.
I've already tried to mark and unmark that option in resource packs setting but it doesn't work. It's like if you just deleted that option and now everyone have to download resources to play.
The image below shows the bug.
The option to force all players to download resource packs is not activated!

A server I play on has an armor stand pack for chunk borders and other things, but several of us want to use Strutura. This also uses armor stands, so the server one would need to be deleted from the cache. But, with this bug since the hot fix, means it just re-downloads the chunk borders one. We can't use strutura to work on a massive group build. I also have an older version of a pack that is on the server that I like better, but I am forced to re-download it to join the server. This behavior started with this hot fix.
Will this be fixed? We are now in 1.20.80 and this bug remains in the game... many members in my realm can't access because of this!

This server is loaded with behavior packs, so you need to download the textures of this pack, otherwise the pack won't work
Mojang, are you actually sure that this bug is an unresolved "Confirmed" bug?? This thing seem to only happen when I open a world with behavior packs.
I checked and it doesn't force me to download the packs when you open a world without a behavior pack...
Are you actually sure about that this isn't "Work as intended" BS?
