I am currently hosting a 26.1.2 paper server for a friend. After months of play, he is looking to make the server modded now to add more content.

The issue I am running into is that the worldsave will not transfer properly. I have tried importing the paper worldsave locally so I can convert it using the 26.1.2 vanilla server jar. But on both vanilla and NeoForge servers, I get a log error stating it could not start due to datapack errors no matter what method I use to import the world save. I have followed some of the documentation from the official papermc website but the way the world saves are setup is different then what has been provided I think due to the 26.x.x rewrite.

I have also used NBTExplorer to try and attempt to remove any existence of paper in the folder structure which allows the save to sorta import and run. But the entire world just generates like its new so it didn't actually work.

Any assistance would be great. Trying to save months of work performed by multiple players from starting over but it does not seem to be easy to do so.

Edit: Forgot to add this originally. The world save was originally imported from a Realm save when first starting the paper server. So not sure if this affects the structure of the worldsave.
