Seed Templates

This feature is exclusive to Bedrock Edition.

The seed templates (or seed picker prior to Bedrock Edition 1.19.0) is an interface in Bedrock Edition that allows the player to choose from a number of preset seeds for generating worlds with specific interesting features near the spawn point.

Usage[]

To get to the seed template interface, from the "Worlds" tab in the initial menu, select "Create New", then "Create New World". Go to the "Advanced" section, and next to the "Seed" input field, there is an button named "Templates". Clicking on this button opens the seed templates. The seed template shows a scroll-able region of named thumbnails to browse the preset seeds. Clicking on a thumbnail returns to the "Create New World" page with the applicable seed filled in.

Discontinued presets[]

Seeds in the seed templates are discontinued when changes in the world generating algorithms cause the seed to appear differently.

Starting in Bedrock Edition 1.10.0, strongholds have less chance of spawning under a village, and with Bedrock Edition 1.11.0, generated structures such as villages and temples spawn at different locations from previous editions. Therefore, the stronghold near the spawn point disappeared from the "Stronghold Village" seed, and there is no longer a village nearby in most seeds that were named for a village.

In Bedrock Edition 1.17.40, several seeds were removed in preparation for the Caves & Cliffs update (Bedrock Edition 1.18), because they were made obsolete by the introduction of significant changes in the terrain generation algorithm.^[1] Most of these worlds were restored to the seed templates in 1.18 with new seed values.

Discontinued seeds:

Vast Desert Oasis: 961601796 — A large desert surrounding a small-scale savanna. Since 1.11, a village generates in the desert near the spawn point, as well as in the small savanna. Discontinued in 1.11.
