So basically I was afk fish farming and go off to my creeper farm/concrete converter/xp farm/sugarcane farm/chorus fruit farm (just saying what's there in case it might be related) only the xp farm was on though as I usually leave it running. Whenever I go over to this area, it's absolutely scuffed. It's so strange and bizarre, I've tried a few things but in the end I decided I'd just post a video and pray some minecraft god can help me, I've never used mods, it's a completely locked survival/hard world so I pray this is fixable. Here's the link to it -
Sorry for the stutters, usually never happens but things are weird right now lol. Hope someone can help!
I've been trying since I've posted this to get it working, I genuinely have no idea what's going on. Every other part of my world is accessible and functioning, but the moment my big structure in the sky loads in that's it, gone. I can't eat, I can't open chests, I can't fly or break blocks. I'm just doomed. I have high hopes a minecraft god can descend from the heavens and help me out of this hell I've found myself in. I spent a long time in this world, it's one of my first and if I lose all of this hard work in survival I'm going back to Overwatch.
I have been genuinely scouring through the WHOLE internet for hours on end trying to figure out if anyone else has had this issue I've typed in a plethora of searches in hopes something would come up, but nothing. No one on the face of the planet has ever posted anything about something like this happening. It's actually crazy to me, the game's been out for so long and yet nothing and no one has brought this to attention or had it happen to them and it's fully ruined an area I've spent countless hours on trying to get to function and look cool. Genuine question, do I just bail on this 11.27 day world and start another? Because with all of those mechanisms seemingly gone, I don't see the point.
I'm going to work, one final bump for old times sake. After this I'm probably just going to do a series of Hardcore games. Clearly survival isn't permanent so I may as well do hardcore mode.
Another day going to work, I started a hardcore game but I'm still holding out hope someone can find a way to fix my game. If anyone needs any more information, any more videos etc I can provide. I just really want this fixed, this was my first real world and it was so fun and beautiful to me. Now the magic seems to have completely gone because of a glaring bug. It's very depressing and I'm still praying a minecraft god can descend and bring me out of this fresh hell. Thank you for letting me bump this many times, this world meant a lot to me.
Pic is just the recent hardcore world I made, I set up in a village I think villagers are gonna be my best friends on this world.
Still holding out hope someone can fix this, tell me how to get more info or even just spitball ideas. So far this forum has been pretty useless lol, 380 people have seen it and none have any idea on what's happening. Any information or ideas help, I've spent a long time in this world and I'm not ready to give it up even though that seems like the only option at this point. Just, please. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Say something silly, Laugh 'til it hurts, Take a risk, Sing out loud, Rock the boat, Shake things up, Flirt with disaster, Buy something frivolous, Color outside the lines, Cause a scene, Order dessert, Make waves, Get carried away, Have a great day!
This 'bug' is caused by the internal server freezing. You can still move around because that's handled client-side but interacting with blocks and items, as well as initiating elytra flight, are all handled by the server.
How will I restore from a back up please? Also it doesn't happen anywhere else in the world, only that one area. So thanks for the help, once I restore from back up I'll let you know how it goes.
I ask again, a long time later, how am I meant to restore a back up? What is a back up? How do I get the only world I've ever cared about on this game back, I've been playing for this week trying out hardcore, different survivals, creative, nothing sparks the same interest as much as my first ever world. I just want help in getting it back.
Backups are copies of your worlds in case your worlds are corrupt.
If you don't have backups and your world is corrupt, then your world is lost and have to start over from scratch.
Rename the world directory inside the saves to something like "worldname broken". Then extract or copy (depending on how the backups are made) the most recent backup into the saves directory, and then try if you can successfully load it and everything is as expected. If it works, then I guess you can probably delete the "broken" world... but of course make sure there isn't anything in there that you would need still.

Thanks for the info, so what I really need to know is can i ever fix what has happened to this world? Or am I doomed to have all of my industrial resource farms including a concrete converter+tnt duper completely gone? I can travel other parts of this world, that I've tested. So is it just this one area of the map I'm never allowed to come back to now? Thanks for the help though. I've been in absolute desperation fell into a hard upset over this, I loved this world and have not got the information necessary to move on.
There is a thread dedicated to fixing corrupted saves (which should be mentioned instead of just "restore from a backup", as in my experience most people never make backups until it is too late):
Note that it may take a while for somebody to respond (you could also try sending a private message to Ritter_Kaldor, who fixed the last few saves posted). There is also a chance that the fix will remove chunks containing builds, especially since the usual tools, such as MCEdit, haven't been updated since 1.12 (these enabled more fine control over what areas were deleted; worst case an entire region file (512x512 blocks) needs to be removed).

Don't know if bumps work in this, but bump. I want to play my world without it completely crashing the moment I enter that area.

Looks like corrupt chunks in your world.
Restore from a backup.
