    The Far Lands are a phenomenon of Minecraft world generation that occur 12 and a half million blocks away from spawn. There's the Minecraft Far Lands, the Minecraft Farther Lands, the Minecraft Fartherer Lands... and the Minecraft Farthest Lands, along with corner variations for all of them, and they all occur for distinctly different, but similar reasons. Today, we're gonna check them out!

      Ant there is a 1.3.2 mod that allows generation till the 1024 bit limit and lets you see all of these limits in their true positions (even the fringelands) but normally the mod uses the module patch from beta 1.8 but you can get rid of that and also merge the comb artifacts of the fringeland and other stuff but you need to install it the old way in the base luncher but i just used multimc add to jar button and you can get this mod at allam a video titled BREAKING THE (64bit number) LIMIT AGAIN​@AntVenom

    Fun fact: The farlands also exist on the old console editions! The same exact patch for them is there, but because worlds are limited size, you can never see them if you unpatch the farlands. By forcing the scale of worldgen to be insanely small, it actually generates not only the farlands, but also the sky farlands!
    I have a proper override that forces the farlands to generate past a certain chunk distance from spawn. It works, but the farlands are capped to y=128. It's pretty cool how they're identical to java's, since the worldgen code is mostly 1:1 (set the biome scale to large before making the world, and then it's identical to java 1.13!).

    One note. Minecraft is using 3d perin noises, not 2d. Just, the higher you get, the more of it is "cut". 2D perlin noise is unable to generate things like hanging cliffs, overhangs, arches etc. because it give you no depth value, just height. Henrik Kniberg a former minecraft dev is describing it in his "Minecraft terrain generation in a nutshell" video. Another proof of that can be seen at 3:38 min of the video. Look at the "selector noise:". Below 3 variables are shown, Period, Period Y, Period Z - 2D perlin noise is taking only 2 dimensions as the input, and is returning 3rd one. 3D perlin noise on the other hand is taking 3 dimensions, and is returning 4th one. This 4th dimension is threated differently than 3rd dimension in 2d perlin noise. It doesn't show you how "high" on the 4th dimension you should generate terrain, it just show you where blocks should be, so e.g. values below 0 are air, and above or equeal to 0 are stone. World generation shown at the graph above, again at 3:38, as well as the farlands terrain is impossible to generate with just 2d perlin noise

    I feel like having some kind of notation for different kinds of Far Lands would make naming them easier. There could be 4 levels:
    • 1 - Far Lands;
    • 2 - Farther Lands;
    • 3 - Fartherer Lands;
    • 4 - Farthest Lands.
    Additionally, there could be 4 designators:
    • E - Edge Far Lands;
    • T - Sky (Top) Far Lands;
    • B - Void (Bottom) Far Lands;
    • C - Corner Far Lands;
    -• V - Vertex Far Lands.-
    A pair of edge designators of the same level give the corner designator: E2E2 becomes C2.
    -A pair of corner and sky/void designators of the same level give the vertex designator. The void designator prepends a minus sign to the V level: C4T4 becomes V4, C4B4 becomes V−4, E4B4 stays the same.-
    Example usage:
    • E1 - Edge Far Lands;
    • B2 - Void Farther Lands;
    • E2E1 - Edge Farthest Edge Far Lands;
    • E1B1 - Edge Far Void Far Lands;
    • E2B1 - Edge Farther Void Far Lands;
    • E1T1 - Edge Far Sky Far Lands;
    • E2T1 - Edge Farther Sky Far Lands;
    • E2T2 - Edge Farther Sky Farther Lands;
    • C3 or E3E3 - Corner Fartherer Lands;
    • -V−1 or- C1B1 or E1E1B1 - Corner Far Void Far Lands;
    • -V1 or- C1T1 or E1E1T1 - Corner Far Sky Far Lands;
    • E1T4 - Edge Far Sky Farthest Lands.

      However, I'd remove the V designator entirely, because the V designator doesn't really need to exist (V1 could be expressed as C1B1). Also, "vertex" isn't currently a part of the Farlands naming convention: if V was removed, the notation would have the benefit of having a direct correlation between notation and naming.

    I always wanted someone to bring the Far Lands back - as a biome. One that only appears at significant (but still humanly achievable) distances from spawn. maybe with the Alpha grass colors and some other additions to make it feel less like a bug and more like a mythical landmass type. And probably increased enderman spawn rates.

  • @kennyholmes5196
    @kennyholmes5196 3 місяці тому +26

    I would recommend, for clarity's sake, calling the vertical far land categories as "high" and "deep" instead of "far".
    So the above-normal sky far lands of the topmost level would be the "Highest Sky", the level below that would be the "Higher Sky", the layer below that would be the "High Sky", and the layer just above the normal terrain generation would be just the normal "Sky Lands".
    Likewise, the void lands, going from outermost to innermost would be "Deepest Void", "Deeper Void", "Deep Void", and "Void", respectively.
    So, how you would mark the lands that were in the corner two out and three up would be the "Corner farther higher sky lands".

    • @AntVenom
      @AntVenom  3 місяці тому +10

      I honestly think the way I named them is better, because specifically naming them in this manner means there's really never any confusion. Edge Farther Sky Far Lands implies a very specific and easy to understand section of the Minecraft world. It's on either the X or Z Farther plane, and on the Far plane on the Y axis. Changing up the wording, IMO, will cause more confusion.

    And then there’s bedrock: a few million blocks out (I’m not sure how many exactly), the terrain generates as normal, but all entities cease to collide with blocks. From there onwards, the further you go in that direction, the more difficult it is to travel perpendicular to the farlands. At around 12.55 million blocks, you reach the farlands. I’m not sure what’s in between, but at thirty million blocks out, you can literally only move parallel to the farlands, and vertically. All blocks now appear two blocks long, and every second block doesn’t exist visually. Also it is impossible to travel beyond this point by any means, even teleportation. As for vertical farlands, I’ve never known of a mod that generates them in bedrock, but I do know that many thousand blocks up, you hit an invisible ceiling which cannot be passed by any means, even commands. And downwards, there’s an invisible floor forty blocks into the void that you can just walk around on in creative or if you survive long enough in survival. You can teleport beyond that, but I’ve never checked what happens if you keep going down there.

    I really wish they would embrace the Farlands and add it into the game instead of removing it. It could've been a more interesting border than the one we have right now, perhaps in a normal Minecraft world they could've made it so the final 1000 blocks before the border could be Farlands that you can actually enter and interact with, and then after those 1000 you get the border we have right now.
    It would give players a reason to try and traverse such a long distance just like how they did long time ago and they would also play along with such a historical phenomenon.
    Honestly a missed opportunity in my opinion.

    Y-farlands - vertical farlands
    XZ-farlands - regular corner (?) farlands
    X-far-Z-fartherlands - regular farlands on X coordinate, fartherlands on Z coordinate
    X-far-Y-farthest-Z-fartherlands -regular farlands range on X, farthestlands on Y, and fartherlands on Z coordinate
    XYZ-farthestlands - farthestlands in all directions
    Etc..
    Or maybe even avoid the somewhat silly farther, fartherer and farthest as names and do something like:
    X4Y2Z-farlands - corresponding to X-far-Y-farthest-Z-fartherlands, though that would be very uno virus what it even means when someone doesn't know such naming scheme
