I have been working on a world for months now on a world with the hopes of converting it to a small privet server at some point. Today, I come to finish a section and it was gone. So I hopped onto Google and here's what I've done (I hope this isn't an overload of info):
I dug a little more and followed the instruction on this video () and created a second world, and then copied the region folder from the original over to the new one... and nothing happened.
So I went back and did the second half of the earlier post (see above) and replaced the level.dat file from the second one over the original and something happened. The world showed up again on my list of worlds, but when I opened it up, it was an exact copy of the second world I'd created.
Is there any hope of recovering this world or have I screwed it up too bad???

First, as per the first part of this answer, I deleted the level.dat and renamed level.dat_old to level.dat (see post here: https://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/298503/cant-find-world-in-single-player-but-save-file-is-in-minecraft-saves) and nothing happened.
