This feature is exclusive to Java Edition. 
This article is about the world type. For the Easter egg dimension in 20w14∞, see Java Edition 20w14∞ § World generation.
For the world type before Java Edition 1.13, see Old Customized.

Custom is a world type that allow users to change the generation of the Overworld, Nether, and End dimensions as well as the ability to create custom dimensions. It is edited using a JSON file that is imported on the world creation screen.

Access

Custom world generation works using JSON files, which need to be imported before world creation.

In the world creation menu, go to more options and select the "Import World" option. Then, select a world generation JSON file. A screen will pop up, warning users that custom worlds are experimental. Click "Yes" to continue.

The only way to access added dimensions is through commands, such as /execute in <dimension name> run tp @s ~ ~ ~, which will teleport the player to the specified dimension (see § JSON format).

Instructions: Needs explanation on each component of the JSON file. Useful sources: [1], [2]

Custom generation files take the following format:

  • The root tag.
    •  bonus_chest (Boolean): Whether the world has a bonus chest or not (equivalent to the "Bonus chest" option).
    •  generate_features (Boolean): Whether structures should be generated or not (equivalent to the "Generate structures" option).
    •  seed (integer): The numerical seed of the world.
    •  legacy_custom_options (string): The custom world preset that was used to generate the world when it was an old customized world. Only exists for old customized worlds.
    •  dimensions: A list of the dimensions in this world where the key is the namespace ID of the dimension.
      • A dimension. The dimensions minecraft:overworld, minecraft:the_nether and minecraft:the_end are required for a well functioning world. Any other namespaced ID is allowed for custom dimensions.
        •  generator: Generation settings used for that dimension.
          •  type (string): The ID of the generator. minecraft: followed by flat, noise or debug.
          • Other compounds (see below)'
        •  type: This can be a list of options for the dimensions or the namespaced ID of one of the default dimensions as a string, the dimensions will the use the settings of the specified dimension. Note: if the same namespace ID of a default dimension is used in multiple dimensions, the game will crash upon generation.
          • Custom dimension/Data

Generator types

    •  type: The ID of the genarator. One of noise, flat, or debug.
      If  type is minecraft:noise, additional fields are as follows:
    •  settings: The noise settings used in this generator. Can be set to an ID of noise settings, or a object of noise_settings.
    •  biome_source: Settings dictating which biomes and biome shapes.
      •  type: The type of biome generation. One of multi_noise, fixed, checkerboard, or the_end.
        If type is multi_noise(3D biome generation used in the nether, and in the overworld in snapshot 21w37a and after.) , additional fields are as follows:
      •  preset: (mutually exclusive with  biomes) An ID or an object of a multi-noise biome source parameter list.
      •  biomes: (mutually exclusive with  preset) (Cannot be empty) A parameter list of biomes, including their IDs and target noise parameters.
        • : A biome and its properties.
          •  biome: The biome ID. A single biome ID may be repeated several times with different parameters.
          •  parameters: Represent optimal intervals for where the biome should be placed. These values do not affect the generation of terrain within biomes, instead, they only affect where the game chooses to place biomes. Thinking of a six-dimensional space, in the space these intervals are defined for biomes. If the six parameters at a location based on the noise router in noise settings fall into an interval, the corresponding biome is generated here. If the six parameters at a location do not fall into a defined biome interval in this list, it uses the closest biome interval to the 6D parameter point, in order to form a transition between biomes. Parameter combinations should be unique in the biomes list.
            • Noise parameter for biome (See Biome for usages of each parameter in vanilla game)
        If type is the_end(Biome generation used in the end with biome minecraft:the_end in the center and other end biomes around) , no additional field.
        If type is fixed(single biome) , additional fields are as follows:
      •  biome: The ID of the single biome to generate.
        If type is checkerboard(A biome generation in which biomes are square (or close to square) and repeat along the diagonals) , additional fields are as follows:
      •  biomes: A list of biomes that repeat along the diagonals. Can be a ID of biome or a tag of biome, or a list of biome IDs.
      •  scale: (optional, defaults to 2) Value between 0 and 62 (both inclusive). Determines the size of the squares on an exponential scale.
      If  type is minecraft:debug(used for Debug world generation) , no additional fields.
      If  type is minecraft:flat(used for Superflat world generation) , additional fields are as follows:
    •  settings: Superflat settings.
      • Flat generation settings

Default settings

The following is the settings for an exported default Minecraft world.

Expanded default settings

This file contains the same settings used to produce a default world, but with all of the presets expanded to their default values. Note that there is a bug which makes it impossible to create the Ender Dragon fight without using the dimension type preset minecraft:the_end, as the flag that creates the fight is hardcoded and not accessible through JSON. However, it is otherwise identical to the default world.

Custom superflat dimension

Custom superflat dimension

An overview of a world made with the adjacent settings.

This dimension is a Superflat world with a layer of grass on four layers of coarse dirt on top of five layers of basalt. The entire world is full of village houses as spacing is set to 3 (default: 32) and separation is set to 1 (default: 8). The words starts by default at time 1000.

'''Paintings''' are decorative [[entity|entities]] that hang on walls.

== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|A1= Stick |B1= Stick    |C1= Stick
|A2= Stick |B2= Any Wool |C2= Stick
|A3= Stick |B3= Stick    |C3= Stick
|Output= Painting
|type= Decoration block
}}

Paintings can be crafted with any color of [[wool]]. The color of the wool used does not influence the picture chosen when the painting is placed.
Once placed, it displays a random painting.

=== Breaking ===
To remove a painting from a wall, the player can {{control|attack}} it, break one of its supporting blocks, cover one square of it with a block, hit it with an arrow, egg, ender pearl, snowball, or fire charge, or subject it to an explosion. The painting then drops as an item. Arrows that hit paintings disappear.

=== Trading ===
Master-level shepherd [[villager]]s sell 3 paintings for 2 [[emerald]]s.

== Usage ==
=== Placement ===
Paintings can be placed on the sides of [[solid block]]s, [[sign]]s, [[banner]]s, or [[sculk vein]]s . A small gap is visible between the painting and attachment surface. There are several different sizes of paintings (see below). When placed, a painting checks for the largest amount of space it has. It then chooses a random painting of that size. The player can add blocks around the painting to ensure it is the size wanted. When the supporting blocks are removed, the painting breaks after 20 game [[tick]]s (1 second) if no supporting blocks are replaced during that interval.

=== Properties ===
Being an entity, paintings can simultaneously exist in the same space as blocks such as water or torches. Specifically, they can share the space with any block whose collision box does not intersect its hitbox.

Players and mobs are able to walk through paintings, as long as the blocks supporting the painting allow it. Secret doorways can be created this way. [[Light]] propagates through paintings as well.

If a player is concealed behind a painting, the player's name is also concealed from other players.{{verify|Is this true in Bedrock?}}

Paintings are non-flammable.

== Canvases ==
There are 26 paintings in the game. These are mostly based on paintings by [[Kristoffer Zetterstrand]], who also created the ''Minecraft'' versions.

=== Unused paintings ===
In [[Pocket Edition v0.5.0 alpha|v0.5.0 alpha]], with the addition of paintings to Pocket Edition, four unused 32×32 paintings were present in <samp>[[kz.png]]</samp> which remained unused. See {{slink|Bedrock Edition unused features|Paintings}} for more information. They were also added to Java Edition in snapshot [[Java Edition 22w16a|22w16a]]. They cannot be placed by default, but can be summoned by [[commands]] (such as {{cmd|/summon painting ~ ~ ~ {variant:"water"} }}) or through a [[datapack]].

According to [[Helen Zbihlyj]],<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/u8hpnx/thoughts_on_the_new_paintings/i5olue6/?context=3 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20220422115723/https://old.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/u8hpnx/thoughts_on_the_new_paintings/i5olue6/?context=3 archived])</ref> these paintings were originally added "as part of a Pocket Edition promo map" (no footage found) which was planned to be a part of [[Pocket Edition]] promotion at [[MINECON 2012]] [[MINECON 2013|or 2013]] and have never been used in game. The artist of these paintings remains unknown.

* On April 26, 2011, Notch stated that the automapping code can be used to share custom paintings and books in the future.<ref>{{tweet|notch|62970142207913984|The auto mapping code can be used to share custom paintings and books in the future.

* The texture on the back of a painting is the same as the wooden planks texture, but with a yellowish color similar to that of [[chests]] (but slightly darker).
* The "Skull on Fire" painting contains a Minecraft world in the background, which is based on a screenshot taken by the artist in [[Java Edition Alpha v1.1.2 01|Alpha 1.1.2_01]] (or earlier) on October 12, 2010, at 13:22:49 (UTC+2).<ref>{{cite|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220928041338/https://imgur.com/HVhrbnH|title=The original (never publicly shared before) screenshot that Kristoffer Zetterstrand took and based his painting on.|website=Imgur}}</ref>

* The "Skull on Fire" painting's texture was added in [[Java Edition Beta 1.3|Beta 1.3]]. However, the code for paintings to randomly display the part of the [[Kz.png]] texture that was to be occupied by the Burning Skull painting was added earlier, in [[Java Edition Beta 1.2_01|Beta 1.2_01]]. As there was nothing on this part of the texture except for a purple background grid, this is what would be displayed if the painting was randomly chosen, until the Burning Skull painting texture was actually added.
* The original "Skull on Fire" painting was given to the winner of an official texture pack competition by Mojang.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20110110003612/http://www.webhallen.com:80/minecraft/</ref>

{{Item

}}

The '''Footprint''' was a joke item from [[Java Edition 20w14∞]], found only in the {{code|missing}} dimension.

== Appearance ==
This item is semi-transparent with a grey colour scheme.

== Obtaining ==

=== Dimension ===
Footprints were obtained only from a chest in the {{Code|missing}} dimension. Only existing in 2020 April fools snapshot 20w14∞, it cannot exist in any non-April Fool's joke versions and April Fool's joke versions before or after 20w14∞. There is a maximum of 2 footprints that can be obtained legitimately in any given world.

=== Cheats/Creative Mode ===
Despite these footprints not being available in the creative inventory, it is still possible to acquire them via the command {{Code|code=give <target> minecraft:footprint <amount>}} or duplicating them by holding down middle-click whilst in creative mode.

== Usage ==
As of snapshot 20w14∞, this item cannot be placed or used in any way other than a trophy. This item can be inserted and/or rotated inside of an item frame, and it has a stack limit of 64.

* This is a reference to the removed "Footstep" particle, hence in the "missing" dimension.
** This item is intended as a joke directed towards the commands' community where the "Footstep" particle is commonly requested.<ref>https://gist.github.com/boq/8e65cb85badc75765eeb8956af78aaa5</ref>
