Talk:Tutorials/Minecraft help FAQ

Help is mentioned in the form of people on IRC, but there is no listed server, port or channel anywhere on the page? -JeffBobbo 22:01, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

Save will not load correctly.
After spending much time on a world, I closed out minecraft, and then opened it about half an hour later, only to find that all minecraft would display upon opening my world, was my immediate inventory, and the transparent outline of one block, the rest being ungenerated, the game was also frozen. After about 15 seconds, minecraft would close. The title page still works fine. Is there anyway to fix this problem, or at least load an older version of my file that will work?

Re-install: Help
I want to re-install minecraft on my MAC OS X MACBOOK PRO. So I did. I expected a clean, empty (or organised) minecraft folder. But I still had my ModLoader and a few mods. How do i fix this? --R ocĸetor talk  07:21, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Linux instructions incomplete
I ran the linux instructions in a terminal in Kubuntu 10.04, the script throws an error when copying the backup but succeeds in deleting the folder. The result is that this script will permanently destroy your save. It is difficult, close to impossible, to fix, this results in either starting over or, if you pull the power supply from your system immediately and use a drive recovery disk, hours of picking through recently deleted files to find the one that is a minecraft save, likely by inode number.

In other words, a better script needs to be devised. I'm too busy restarting my minecraft world to be arsed with it though.

I'm going to temporarily edit the page so that it uses multiple steps so that it may take longer but has less chance of just wiping out your save.
