Nether not saving after using Nether portal?

Trying to use the 1.16.4 world downloader for a server that uses 1.17.1 but is compatible with 1.16.4. The downloader sends messages in chat that say the Nether/Overworld are backing up as I go through a Nether portal, but the finished download saves the dimension I stop the download in as the Overworld and generates the Nether from scratch when going through the portal. Multiworld support doesn't work at all and doesn't detect dimensions/worlds on the server.
Multiworld support doesn't work at all and doesn't detect dimensions/worlds on the server.
Note that multiworld support doesn't detect worlds automatically. You have to click new world, type in a name, and press "enter", and then select the right world. However, it is supposed to detect the correct dimension. Dimensions got more complicated in 1.16 and 1.17, so there's a chance it's broken. You should still be able to work around it with the multiworld functionality if you use it carefully enough.
Thanks for letting me know! I was confused on how to get the multiworld support screen working, I'll get back to you and see if it works.
I did manage to save the dimensions separately in different world files with the multiworld support option on. However the same thing happened as it did earlier with the Nether not getting saved in the Overworld world file and the Nether in the Nether world file getting set as the Overworld.
Sounds like the dimension detection stuff is broken, then, and it's just defaulting to the overworld. I'll look into it when I get a chance.
You should be able to merge the two worlds together by copying the nether's region folder into the DIM-1 folder for the main world (such that there's a DIM-1/region folder and a region folder in the main world).
This works, thank you!
