hi, my friend and i were playing on my modded pz server and out of no where the game crashed and now i cant host the server no more because it gets stuck at loading map chunks and then kicks me with the message "Failed to download map from server." im trying to fix this problem for the past 3-4 hours and nothing works so this is my only solution to write here

One of the chunks in your save has probably been corrupted when the crash happened. Do you remember where on the map you were when the crash happened?

terse ermine
#

yes

strong seal
#

ok, what were the coordinates?

terse ermine
#

around 12494x4238

#

if thats correct

strong seal
#

is that where your base is?

terse ermine
#

no

#

ok, first of all make a back up of the save, then you can try going in to the Save folder, opening the chunkdata folder and deleting the file "chunkdata_48_16.bin" to see if that helps

good, I'm glad!

in future if this happens you can turn on the "grid" overlay on b42map and see the chunk co-ordinates

#

I don't have permissions to give roles no, sorry

that usually fixes it yeah, or a chunk you've just been to

You see the numbers in the top of each box? that corresponds to a chunkdata file, you'll see the one I had you delete has the same numbers

#

i played for 5 minutes and it crashed again, and same error message once again

#

i tried to delete the chunks

#

but didnt help it

#

It's a different chunk with the error this time, it doesn't say which though. I think a mod you're using is breaking the save. Can you try starting a new save and playing on that for a while to see if the same thing happens again?

terse ermine
#

this is another save

#

2 days ago we started playing this modpack

#

and the same error happened

#

but now we got very far so i coudnt bring myself starting over

#

If it's happening on a new save then I would consider going through the mods one by one, or half by half to see which is causing the issue and reporting it to the mod creator on the workshop page.

#

to be honest i know which mod is it

#

if i recall correctly everytime before the game crashed i smoked

#

and the animation bugged me out

#

like i coudnt move and also the animation kept repeating while i couldnt do anything

#

and then crashed my game

#

and that what started this

#

maybe true smoking is bugged as hell

#

so i fount this post that you were there too and had the same problem as me

#

i tried what he told

#

and it worked

#

coincidence or not he was playing the same modpack as me

#

because i found him linking this thread in the modpack comments

#

im going to sleep now because its almost 1am for me and tomorrow i will be playing, hopefully the problem will not reappear

#

thanks alot for helping

#

i really appriciate it
