purely vanilla so no idea what caused the issue and if i save a copy of the realm i can change that difficulty so what gives lol
as my ticket has been deemed a duplicate of this one,
I also have this issue and will be quick to check for replies.
i have tried changing difficulty while in the realm and while not in the realm (without anyone joined at the time)
I have tried changing difficulty on every device i have and have logged in and out multiple times and have even tried various /commands (my realm has achievements on so /commands don't work anyway I knew this)
I was really hoping that this new 1.16.220 update would fix my issue but it hasn't
if you are referring to closing my realm as a subscription, I can do that but it will take time to prepare my now 60+ members for emptying their inventories and Ender chests into the world so that they don't lose it when I replace the realm which is almost impossible when some have connection issues and some can go months without reply
so is there any other fix other than literally shuuting the realm down and essentially starting a new one with the save and lose all backups that provide the much needed peace of mind?
so the update I have for you is that I am unable to have difficulty changes take effect even when closing the realm and now I cant even download my world for safety through either the download world option or through world back ups both with the realm active and closed so what's the next advice step? all of my 50+ players are anxiously but patiently awaiting mobs since just after the 1.16.210 update
I have managed to get a world download after the 1.16.221 update but am still unable to change difficulty so will attempt the previous steps again hopefully at midnight tonight I will update you on the outcome.
the only reason I am unable to instantly check is having to give enough warning to other players
I'd like to add this issue to my realms issue of not being able to change difficulty as this is part of the fix I have been told to do and this issue is now stopping the fix from working
50+players waiting for my realm to simply have its mob weekly schedule back
I am having to run my realm as a world 24 hours right now because I still cant fix this issue due to the other bug of not being able to upload realms with the message lack of space/check internet or blank no progress with only the option to wait for the rest of eternity for ultimately nothing to happen or cancel and try again. I specifically just upgraded my home Wi-Fi network to see if the issue was my end or yours and its most certainly an issue in the game not with me internet connection
please fix this issue I cant afford to run hardware 24/7 but have no choice until this is fixed

still having this issue even into 1.16.221 update
still having this issue into the 1.16.221 hotfix
why is this not being fixed I'm cancelling my subscription so I can wait for it to run out so I can try refreshing it that way but this needs fixing, its bad enough that realm owners don't have the ability to use certain commands to rectify this but not being able to change difficulty at all is making vanilla survival really boring really fast and people are stopping playing as days pass
is this true, why is this not being fixed I'm cancelling my subscription so I can wait for it to run out so I can try refreshing the realm it that way but this needs fixing, its bad enough that realm owners don't have the ability to use certain commands to rectify certain other issues such as difficulty but not being able to change difficulty at all or replace the world with a like for like replacement is making vanilla survival really boring really fast and people are stopping playing as days pass
I have cancelled my subscription.
I now must wait for it to fully expire before trying to reupload my realm to try and fix this I am really unhappy at the lack of support to this issue.
external servers will be my only remaining option and that means my money will be going to someone that is not mojang if its not sorted, not threat, fact. I've heard a lot of people say much of the same thing.
I've only managed to reupload a previous save not a new non backup one but the steps I took to upload the realm backup are as follows
1
make a save of your realm by downloading the most recent backup
2
open that save to make sure it works as it should as a world eg it opens for a start
3
reset realm (caution make sure you don't skip steps 1 and 2or you will replace your realm with a brand new random seed)
4
join new reset empty realm to again make sure it all loads in (I did a slow 360 turn on the spot)
5
save and exit and then upload the most recent backup before the reset (it should be clear as the sizes will be different eg min is a 1.4-1.7gb world so easy to spot after 0-0.50mb reset)
the only thing this changed for me is the difficulty was stuck on peaceful and now its stuck on normal so I am not entirely happy about it
as a alternate final resort before my subscription is closed I've managed to reupload a previous save, not a new non backup one, but the steps I took to upload the realm backup are as follows and the results are now being stuck from peaceful to normal difficulty but non reversable

why hasn't this been fixed yet i'm seeing a lot of people that are paying other companies money that Mojang could be making through realms but is instead being lost to external servers which are cheaper easy to use and much more reliable
i myself used to pay for realms but since this issue first effected me and 50 other people that would play on it was never addressed of fixed i gave up trying to look at mojang for support i look to my server host of choice (eg hostinger or shockbyte for example) and they get back to me within a few hours-max 24 hours and instead of costing the realms subscription price i now pay £18 every 3 months with much higher admin support less lag for my global players and more slots for players to be on at the same time (if i matched realms player list it would be £4.50 every 3 months
for those just trying to download your realm to upload as a backup id say give up until someone posts that this issue is fixed because its years old now and still hasn't been replied to recently
