Step 3: Change your pack.mcmeta to:

Start->
{
“pack”: {
“pack_format”: 3,
“description”: “1.12 Resource Pack”
}
}
<- End

That’s the pack’s “description”.

For all versions before 1.9 the “pack_format” number needs to be “1”. For Minecraft 1.9 and 1.10 you should use number “2” to make your pack compatible. 1.11/1.12 Texture Packs need number “3” to be there. If you want to make your pack 1.9 compatible you should check out this guide: Convert a 1.8 resource pack to 1.9.

Step 4: Run Minecraft 1.12.2/1.12 and look for the Texture Pack / Resource Pack. If it doesn’t show “incompatible” you can check if the pack is really fully 1.12.2/1.12 compatible!

That’s how to use Minecraft 1.7/1.8 Resource Packs on version 1.12.2/1.12.
