I start my game by pressing play in the top of the new launcher
My world opens in newer versions, but opening it in an older version clears inventories, chests, and any entities
not sure how to close the bug thing. but dont want to delete it incase someone has the same problem. Dhranios the game might technically be modded because I have a datapack that gives me the ability to craft better armorstands.
figured it out! the trident went through the wall behind me and into my house and went through my nether portal
Hi,
The world is not the issue, the issue is within the launcher and how it is programmed. I just pressed play, as I have for over 10 years. It automatically put me in an older version in my world. I did not click my world. I did not press an older version. My latest played version was the latest version of minecraft. If I had pressed on my world in that older version, minecraft would have warned me to do a backup of my world before opening it. Since it was automatic, per the new launcher change, it did not create a backup, and my world was opened and forcibly downgraded.
I have since then checked every time I have opened the launcher, and have had to change it to the latest release a couple of times. I'm not uploading a video because I don't feel like it. Im just pointing out this oversight.
Thank you.
