Ladies and gentlemen this is a very special video on february 10th 2021 minecraft saw one of the single biggest and greatest changes to ever occur within the game for the first time in almost exactly nine years the height limit of minecraft has been extended now instead of your minecraft world existing from zero To 255 blocks tall it now covers 384 total blocks starting at negative 64 and ending at 319. the reason for this change is the introduction of the all new cave systems to arrive with this minecraft snapshot the importance of this change can not be understated these new cave systems are absolutely fascinating But they are not the focus of this video mojang said it best themselves this is only the first step in our underground adventure the underground is not finished yet and as such i don’t feel it’s appropriate to cover just yet no today’s video is about an update that’s much Much more fascinating minecraft’s height limit was not just extended to 384 blocks that’s just what you get with a vanilla minecraft world no minecraft’s real height limit was just extended to over 4 000 blocks yes minecraft’s height limit is now 15.875 times its original limit and that’s not all Remember the farlands from minecraft’s past ever since their removal in minecraft beta 1.8 it has been possible to remove the patch that mojang implemented to allow them to generate once again but this snapshot changes the way the farlands will look forever this is what the farlands look like from here on out yeah These changes and so much more right after this message today’s video is brought to you by core core’s latest player contest the cupid’s cup tournament is kicking off on february 18th with over six thousand dollars in the prize pool and dozens of potential winners get ready to put your tactical Team-based brawling and fast-paced aiming skills to the test you have until february 25th to place on the global leaderboard of either of the two core games updated for this occasion find details through the link in the description down below so chapter one of two the height limit from this day forward unless this Changes with future snapshots new worlds generated within minecraft will have a height limit of 384 total blocks which allow for the expanse of new cave systems within the caves and cliffs update to generate for those of you with a keen eye however you may have noticed that 384 is not a multiple Of two so what gives within minecraft 1.2 the height limit was doubled from 128 up to 256 blocks however the reason why the height limit wasn’t just doubled again is that it was actually doubled about four times over allowing for minecraft worlds to occupy 4064 total blocks Where the coordinates can be up to and as low as positive 2031 and negative 2032 when altering how high or low a minecraft world will generate it’s now possible to start the world wherever you want and end it wherever you want so long as it exists within those limits And as far as i could tell by testing it anyways the world must also intersect the y-axis of zero and the total height must be divisible by 16. what this means is if you want a world that starts at negative 1024 and ends at positive 512 or positive 1024 Or 1600 or 2000 you can do that now but how while this video is not going to be a tutorial within the description down below i’ve provided links to data packs that make some of this functionality possible just fire up a world within the new snapshots toss in the data pack And boom this world generates from negative 128 all the way up to 512 blocks with ores and caves generating all the way to the bottom if you really want to get lost in the caves and cliffs update give this data pack a try if you want to play with the numbers for yourself Just open up these specific files within the data pack play around with the numbers and see what happens this is truly the replacement for customized worlds that i’ve always been hoping for you can play around with just about everything while data packs on their own are nothing new Being able to alter minecraft worlds in this manner is truly exciting but there is one thing you can’t do with data packs which is to re-enable the farlands in order to do that we need to use the small mod made by supercoder 79 which re-enables them and removes the teleportation limit as well As you saw before however the farlands now look much much different these are the farlands as they currently exist within the minecraft caves and cliffs update the change in appearance is directly correlated to the introduction of the new noise caves like before these farlands stretch all the way from bedrock to the world’s Height limit if we alter the world’s height limit to be 2 000 blocks tall yes the farlands will generate up that high even if it’s a little bit laggy as we approach the height limit however you may notice what looks like the shape of terrain on top of the farlands This is due to one of the new variables inside of this file which causes terrain to round off as it approaches the height limit preventing terrain features from suddenly cutting off when they hit the limit like they used to in the old days top slide affects the upper limits Bottom slide affects the lower limits however as many of you may know there is more to the farlands than just the edge and corner farlands one more thing this mod does is remove the limit of the y scale variable within the same file as before meaning With just a little bit of tweaking we can crush the world down and bring the sky far lens back and for the very first time bring the void farlands into the world without the use of the cubic chunks mod since we can now generate terrain on negative coordinates So there it is the sky far lands and the void firelands are back in minecraft if mojang ever allows for us to disable the farlands patch within vanilla minecraft possibly through one of these datapack methods all of this will become possible to do in the unmodified game within the description down below I’ve included quite a few download links the first is the farlands mod itself which runs on the snapshot versions of fabric specifically for 21w06a i’ve also included a couple of data packs for you to mess around with as well if messing around with the code that Makes games work is your sort of thing and you want to try your hand at making
