Hi people. I hope someone can offer some advice and thanks to you in advance if you can.
I have a large build on PS3 edition that is not the biggest build I have and isn't as detailed as other builds I have but is defiantly a pretty big build, the other bigger more detailed worlds I have can be a little laggy here and there at times but none of them experience this and I hope some one or two can shed some light on this problem I am having with a 95% complete world.

It started at about 75% complete, I would place a block but you cannot see it, I can destroy a block but it does not disappear, Placed blocks are there as you cannot walk through them but you cannot see them also, and reversed for destroyed blocks, then when saving and exiting the game the system crashes but saves everything fine even the invisible and visible destroyed blocks save and show correctly upon reload.

Over the last week of developments on this world the problem has got more and more persistent up to the point where I would place 5 or 10 blocks and it would happen every time, I then tried copying the world to another user account on my PS3 this seemed to fix the problem so I continued developments on another account on my PS3, then the problem started appearing on the other account, I then tried doing the work from another PS3 but still being hosted on the original the problem was the same, so I copied the save to another playstation and the problem is still there.

No doubt if I change the account I am using to do the developments it will let me build for a while but then soon enough the problem will arise and need to reset the system and change to another account to carry on building.

I think I have an older version of this world still on another account I could try using it if this world is corrupt but the developments are very far behind what they are now I would most likely go back to about 60-70% complete where as this weird problematic save file is at like 95-98% complete..... Its not looking good is it?

Not a happy builder right now....

UPDATE! I have found an older save dating back 7 days ago but its those last 7 days where I took it from 75% to 95% complete. I am wondering if all the extra developments I done was just too much for the little PS3 to handle? ? ?

Yes thats an irritating bug - that happens with MC on PCs. It has happened to me as well. Only exiting your world and entering your world again will fix it. I dont know if this is possble, since MC on consoles are not like MC on PCs, my friend was transfering files from his hard drive to a usb flash drive plugged in to controller port of his Xbox360. I dont know if you have access to backing up your world files on a PS3 - but if you can, I would do it. It would save you the pain of doing all the work, all over again in the future.

It's not just PC? OP's is on PS3 version and consoles aren't resistant to save corruption, if anything, I've had more corrupted saves on console then on PC.

I only mentioned the Xbox360 because I know you can transfer files off the console to a flash drive and transfer that to a computer to really back it up. Now, if the PS3 can do that - then you can back up your world .

Starting over on the 70% complete file and finding more and more things that are no longer there and need rebuilding or re-designing. Its making me think it was way less than 70% complete after all and more likely I am back at 55-60%...

Looks like you are going to have to go back to the old save :/ I also had a massive world that corrupted and I had to just start again.



The only thing that I can say is that you should take the opportunity to try to make the world better than it was before. That's what I tried to do.
