I have a modded game of dwarf fortress and after 16 years and my fortress almost being done (was going for a pretty big mega project) my game hard crashes in mid spring. It's not on any particular date and I'm not sure at all what is causing it. I really dont want to lose my save so I figured I could retire my fortress and try returning to it and see what happens. I do that and besides my beer being all over the floor and not in barrels everything seemed fine. That is, until i notice a good portion of my base that i had mined out previously was now in an unmineable black void very similar to this guys problem here: https://www.reddit.com/r/dwarffortress/comments/zk2y5n/weird_void_glitch/
Does anyone have any suggestion on how i can possible save my fortress? I'm pretty new to this all I have heard of DFhack but im not sure if that would be helpful here. Any help would be appreciated <3

If you upload your save, it would be easier for people to diagnose.
You can upload to the following if you want: https://dffd.bay12games.com/index.php
