My world has turned into a super flat with nothing I built in sight!

I use to play Minecraft regularly on the Xbox One. When the bedrock edition of the game came out, I got excited because of the endless possibilities with the command blocks. What I did in Minecraft was recreate "Zombie Maps" from many of the Call of Duty titles. During the summer, I had been working on one and ended up finishing it at the beginning of August. One day I was playing it to add some finishing details to he world itself and I decided to exit out of the world to create a copy of it.  When I loaded into the copy, not even 5 minutes later, I spawned into the same superflat that I created before building anything with all of my structures and work gone. Every time I try to open the world I keep spawning into the  same superflat even though I can visible see my last location in the "preview picture" before loading into the world. I know none of my structures are in the world by how I try to teleport to a certain coordinate that had a structure and am greeted by more superflat. I even try testing for a certain villager that I named, but nothing appears. This has happened before with a previous creation of mine however it was resolved by restoring a previous version of the file. I cannot replicate this success because there is no previous version available for this world. After this, I was saddened to see my work gone, but I was even more saddened to see another one of my worlds fall victim to this same exact bug a few months later (beginning of December). I did create back ups for these worlds, but even the back ups have this bug. At this rate I might just lose all my worlds to this bug which would be terrible unless I can find the source or even a fix to this bug. My version of Minecraft is fully updated.  The first screenshot is of the world before the bug (Taken on 8-6-18 ). In it you can see everything I built. In the second screenshot you can see the superflat that I always spawn into when I open the world (Taken on 12-31-18). In the last screenshot you can see that the preview is the last location I was in which was supposed to be world spawn (Taken on 12-31-18). I would like to this bug get resolved. Thank you in advance.

 

Edit: I have added both the ORIGINAL world and COPIED world to the forum.

 

Edit 2: -I mentioned the Xbox One just as a backstory of where i originally started, but I moved over to Windows 10 later on (where this problem occurred)

-The world and the back up was indeed edited by a third party editor (Universal Minecraft Editor) by Opryzelp. For my "Nuketown" world I added a modified villager, however my back up for this same world only had a modified "stick" with Looting 1 and Sharpness 1. The reason I used the editor for this was because, currently, you cannot enchant a stick in this version of Minecraft and I wanted to do so for my world.

-The world was originally created on the Xbox One Edition of Minecraft in order to create a custom super flat. I then "Synced" the world onto the new edition of Minecraft available on the Xbox One (the bedrock edition) where I then transferred it over to the Windows 10 edition through the Realm system. So far I have no real idea as to what is causing the problem.

-While I do not believe that this happened directly because of a version update, this problem did occur directly after the Aquatic Update and I did not have this problem happen before that update.

Sorry to hear about the issue. To help us try and see what has happened to the world, are you able to upload the original and the copied worlds here please? (If they are larger than 10MB, you can use a file sharing site and link to that)

NO EXPERT
Yes this has happened to me to, I do believe that it is the file size. When files grow to large I think that Minecraft automatically tries to shrink file size. Also, if you've used a save editor this can happen.

@unknown - Could you help us by providing a bit more information about the issue please?

  • Which platform did this occur on? Your description mentions Xbox One, but the ticket is listed as Windows 10. (If it's both that's fine, but please give us as much information as possible.)

  • Was the world edited at all with a third party editor?

  • How was the world originally created? If this has happened on more than one occasion, could there be a clue as to what may have triggered the issue, or some other related clue?

  • Did this happen as a result of a version update?

Thanks for your help.

Thank you for your report!
However, this issue has been closed as Invalid.

Unfortunately as the world has been modified, we are unable to reproduce the issue. We would always advise that back up copies are taken before modifying a save or applying a mod.
Any issues with third party add-ons, mods, or editors need to be discussed with the content creator.
