Corrupted world in Modded Terraria

[ghostlyganger6888]

My world got corrupted and I tried doing the things I saw in another thread but it showed vanilla Terraria instead of Modded Terraria(I haven’t checked if they’re all vanilla worlds but I will soon). Is there any way I can view my Modded worlds?

As of now, I guess you could use TEdit. However, this thread should belong somewhere in Client/Server Mods & Tools because it is a modded world, not a guide.

Do I need to download TEdit? Where can I download it?

You don't need it, it was only a suggestion for you. It is found here: Tool - TEdit - Terraria Map Editor
Most modded objects like blocks will disappear upon using TEdit, but it is advised to make a back up of the world first before doing anything to it.

I got tedit. What do I do with it to recover my world?

Edit your world with TEdit. Caution however, as it will most likely remove all modded blocks and items in the world. Reason why I said make a backup.

How do I make a back up for a modded world? And how do I use TEdit? My world is corrupted.

tModLoader stores worlds at "Documents/My Games/Terraria/ModLoader/Worlds". They are split into two files actually. The one with the "wld" extension is pretty much just a vanilla world save file, the modded data is stored in a "twld" file with the same name. You can then open the wld file in TEdit just like a vanilla save. (There are probably guides on how to use TEdit somewhere.)

With that said, usually modded worlds get "corrupted" when tModLoader messes something up with the modded data, so this might not help much. When the vanilla portion of the save messes up you usually just get a big empty file, which is unfortunately not very recoverable.
