System PS4, Game version : Minecraft 2.48
Game crashed while saving IN GAME (bloody AUTOSAVE feature that you useless MICROSOFT developers should roll back) , world file got corrupted, when trying to load again the same world it start to work and get stuck indifinetely at 95% of " Generating Terrain" progress bar. No solution but to close Minecraft.
Copied version of the world : DOES NOT work.
Rebuild PS4 data base : DOE NOT work
Unistall / Reinstall the whole Game engine : DOES NOT WORK.
I'm quite hopeless that The clueless microsoft developers can find a way to fix this, they are just redirecting all the issues to this tickect, closing it and reopen it again. I will include here some key words, to appear in search (in the useless JIRA), so othe people can UPvote this funneled issue and maybe one day they come with a fix, or a workaround.
In the mean time, try to make backups, cause the file system management of Bedrock in PS4 is crap. To set up a .bak file and retrieve from the last .bak when the game crash is that difficult, Microsoft buying Minecraft.......and this is what happens. Shame on you MR Markus Alexej Persson, aka Notch.
And for the Jira mantainers , is a good practice twhen you redicrect another issue report to this one, and close the other (funny enough as resolved) to upvote this one by one, to leave that to non dev users is a really bad practice, if you would have done that , this issue would have at least 48 more votes than it has.
More on this, just in case it might help IF anyone is watching this:
In line with MacBros just said 2 days ago, i quitted the game for a while and just yesterday decided to recover the last backup i had, fortunately i do back ups from now and then but still lost a month worht of gameplay. Anyway going technical:
This is for Bedrock in PS4:
When triying to retrieve the back up from the file on the cloud:
You need to deleted the actual saved game, it does not overwrite properly over the same game with the same name. this might give you a clue to where the problems are.
First i tried to just overwrite the file, it did not worked, FUnny fact, it seems to append both contents, the initial file was arouns 600mb, and the file after download the oncloud version weighted 1,2 gb, and still did not work, stopping at the same place in the bar as before (right after the end of it).
Deleted the old saved game, and downloaded a fresh instance of the back up, and this time it did work. So actually the overwrtting from the cloud saved version did not work properly. that is something to look at also.
Please everyone reading this thread upvote the issue so the Jira does its job.
Please adiministrators of this Jira up vote this thread with as many inputs you have in the 30+ duplicated thread you have all around, so developers have a TRUE sense of how many people is pissed of. To close a thread and redirect to duplication without upvoting it subsequentially is a waste of time for all those people who wrote those 30+ threads.
