I died in minecraft hardcore, and clicked "spectate world." After that, the currently loaded chunks would stay loaded, but new chunks wouldn't load. I tried f3 + A (reloading chunks) and only reloaded the current chunks. I restarted minecraft and nothing loaded. Please help?
[EDIT]: a backup was made, and that seemed to have fixed it.
