How can I make homemade jello with generic gelatin have the consistency of jello packets?

I bought a standard unflavored gelatin packet and used 1oz of it for 4 cups of water as the package specified and used my own flavored sweetener. Unfortunately it came out with a much less enjoyable texture. Perhaps it was harder? It crumbled more than the jello packet one which cut much more satisfyingly. Should I just use less gelatin relative to water? I used a zero calorie sweetener and zero sugar jello so it’s not sugar affecting the texture
