Oversized chunk killing the server
Hi! So I am currently running a modded MC server with some friends. A few hours ago, a new message popped up in the console: "Saving oversized chunk [-89, 25] (1054315 bytes} to external file ./world/entities/c.-89.25.mcc" and since then, the server has been totally unplayable. My question is, how can I delete this chunk? I am having a lot of issues locating it since NBTexplorer won't open that file at all. Any help I can get? Thank you!

potentially just delete the file
should be in world folder under entities
Wouldnt the server just save it again?
Will try it tho
Can't save what doesn't exist anymore.
keep a copy of it just in case it deletes progress btw @alvarozeus1
Alright
The exact same thing happened to me. NBTexplorer might tell you what is causing the chunk to be oversized but I have struggled getting that to help. This is my fix:
•Make a backup of your server files
•Locate whether this chunk is in the overworld, nether, or end
•Unzip the server files and make a copy of the world folder with the corrupted chunk (my corrupted chunk was in DIM-1)
•Label the copy of the world folder corrupted
•Label the original world folder trimmed or something similar
•Open mcaselector, open the world folder you labeled trimmed
•Trim the chunk and all bordering chunks
•Either rezip your server files and put it in your ftp access then “restore backup” or copy the individual world folder over and delete the old one. Either way you will need ftp access like FileZilla
•Restart your server
^ this fix is only if nbtexplorer is yielding no results
Otherwise nbtexplorer is way simpler
TYSM! Solved!
