Continuing from last post. I lost my years and years of playing in my private world. Because addons didnt effect achievements. Recently downloaded and now have to trash years and years of enjoyment. Its a big big screw up mojang. Im debating deleating the game. Fix this. Mojang ruined my world after now reverting the change. Its absolutly a joke. Only to log on and find this trting to be excited for the uodate and vibrant visuals.
this happen to me as well when i logged into the game i saw that I'm unable to earn achievements even tho the add on I'm using is from the marketplace please i hope this can be fixed
Same thing happened to me. My world of almost 2 years now has achievements disabled and the addons are now so imcompatible with the current update that everything is either invisible, or it has the pink/black grid patterned squares meaning my world is completely unplayable at this point. The game also doesn't give you a warning when creating a new world with any addons that achievements will be disabled like it used to. I really hope Mojang has a solution for this that will reenable achievements for our worlds sometime soon - I'd rather not need to start a new world in pure vanilla again. They should really consider allowing console players on Bedrock the ability to play on previous versions. That way, we could trade having the newest features with a more stable and unbroken version while they work on patches.

I noticed this today and came to submit a bug report on it. I enabled an add-on acquired from the Marketplace in a world in 1.21.72 and subsequently earned an achievement in that world. When playing in the world in 1.21.80 today, the first time since the update was downloaded, I tried to earn an achievement but it wasn't happening. Thinking that it might be an glitch, I closed out the world and upon checking the settings, the notice “Add-ons cannot be earned in this world” was displayed. This is also true for the backup copies of this world that have not been opened in 1.21.80. There was no notice of this feature being reverted or any opportunity to remove the add-on before the world had been marked for no achievements.
I trust that this is a defect and that in the next patch, not only will this feature be re- enabled but that affected worlds will be restored to being able to earn achievements. This is worse than removing one's glitched mobs inasmuch as now the effort put into building an entire world with the ability to earn achievements is effectively wasted.
