In this guide, we'll show you how to enable experimental mode on your preexisting Minecraft world!
🛑Before you continue! You will need a file opener such as 7zip or WINRAR for this.
❗ It's been known that enabling experimental for pre-existing worlds is touchy and may be unstable, do this with caution
Step 1: Download Your World With SFTP
You can follow this guide to access your server with SFTP.
Next, download your world in Filezilla and then locate it where you downloaded it to.
Step 2: Rename Your Folder
First, open up the Bedrock level folder you downloaded.
Then, once inside of there, compress your world into a "Bedrock Level.zip" with 7zip
Rename your "Bedrock World.zip" to "Bedrock World.mcworld"
Step 3: Upload Your World to Minecraft Bedrock
Click play on the main menu in-game, then locate the "Import World" button and click it.
Next, upload the world.
Step 4: Enable Experimental
Edit your world once it's uploaded.
Turn on all of the Experimental modes (or the ones specifically listed for addon requirements)
Then export the world.
Step 5: Upload Back to Your Server
Navigate back to your panel file manager and go to your worlds folder.
Then once inside of there, open the Bedrock level folder
After that, upload your Bedrock level and unarchive it inside of the Bedrock level folder.
And you're done! Start your server and your world will be experimental now.
