Problem Corrupt Chunk

[Keaton88]

Hi there, on my server some player thought it would be smart to corrupt a chunk at our ./spawn and you crash instantly when you do it also the way he done it involves DrawBridges he like put them in a chest somewhere (i dont know where neither does he) and i just dont know how to fix this here is a crash report as well:

if you know the chunk then make a backup of your world open it in mcedit and either delete all chest in that chunk or try to find it.

i dont know the exact chunk but i know its near and have you got a link for MCedit?? 1.5.2 im using for FTB unleashed

 

[lenscas]

Just google mcedit, minecraft version would matter that much I think.
Another thing you can do is to temporarily disable tinkers mechworks and add it back later. note that this will remove ALL items and blocks from said mod in your world and you should make a backup before you even think about doing it!
Something that you could also try is to temporaly change the block id of the drawbridge,this has the same effect as the above but will only remove the drawbridge and should be used with equal caution, another thing to note is that if you want to connect to make sure they are gone your client needs to have the same change

Okay i have installed MCedit and i got an exe

 

[Keaton88]

Where should i extract it to?

 

[lenscas]

if you downloaded mcedit in a .zip file(which is very likely) you just need to extract it to a place you can easily access it.
if you are not talking about where to extract mcedit then I need more info as I have no idea what you mean.

~This is what i got once it downloaded and clicked on the exe

 

[lenscas]

just select something you can find later.
edit: you are using a windows machine right?

 

[Keaton88]

yes i am

 

[lenscas]

then what I said earlier should work

 

[Keaton88]

So do i just click Extract on the pic that i showed you?

 

[lenscas]

I would make a separate folder as it will give more files then just one, but other then that it should work.

 

[Keaton88]

Okay its an its own folder and i have got MCedit User data and mcedit2 application what one the applications?

 

[lenscas]

the executable file.
if you have it enabled that windows shows the extension it should end with .exe

 

[Keaton88]

!!! i got a wrong version this is 1.8.4- 1.8.7 i need 1.5.2!

 

[Keaton88]

How would i load up a world??

 

[Keaton88]

Okay i managed to load my world now how would i remove the corrupt chunk?

 

[lenscas]

Find the chest with the crashing item and remove the chest.
It is in one of the chunks that gets loaded when it crashes
thus if it crashes without players online it must be chunkloaded by something else
if it crashes when a player goes online it must be chunkloaded by either the player or something that only starts to load chunks when said player is online

 

[Keaton88]

It crashes when the chunk is loaded but i have no idea where the chest is, can i not locate it somehow
