	* From [[Minecraft:Beta 1.6 Test Build 3]] to Beta 1.7.3 inclusive, when the player approaches a coordinate that is a multiple of 524,288 on the X/Z axes (including by teleporting), the game loads the spawn chunk at that position, overwriting the contents of the terrain with the spawn chunk's contents.

	~~==== 64-Bit Far Lands ====~~
	~~At X/Z 53,905,361,667,110,564 and -53,905,378,846,979,748 the 64-bit Far Lands generate.~~

	They appear for the same reason the 32-bit Far Lands generate {{frac\|2<sup>31</sup>\|171.103}}, but at their 64-bit respective coordinates {{frac\|2<sup>63</sup>\|171.103}}. They are repetitive in the corner like the Bedrock Edition Far Lands.

	~~Because of their distance from the world's center, they cannot be viewed without extensive modding. This is why they weren't removed from the game.<gallery>~~

	=== Fringe Lands ===		=== 64-bit extension ===
			{{See also\|Java Edition distance effects#64-bit procession loss\|Java Edition hard limits#Historical effects}}
			If the game is extensively modded to use 64-bit integers but ''not'' modify the noise (i.e., as 32-bit noise values as it was up until [[Minecraft:Java Edition Beta 1.8\|Beta 1.8]] when it was patched), currently only done in [[Minecraft:Java Edition Beta 1.2_02\|Beta 1.2_02]],<ref>[https://youtu.be/0R_l9jT1Xdo?is=VDdo49-knS3zGXb2 …going DEEPER Into the Minecraft Beta Far Lands than EVER before…]. YouTube, September 28, 2021</ref> the Far Lands, in addition to still generating at X/Z: ±12,550,824 (due to the noise values still being 32-bit), extend much past the vanilla limits. As a result, many original distance effects in vanilla gameplay that were unviewable (due to world rendering stopping at the 32-bit limit in vanilla and giving way to an empty sky) can now be seen.
			This includes:
			* Biome fill noise overflowing at X/Z ±34,359,738,368 (±2<sup>35</sup>), causing repeating stone layers to be exposed; in 32-bit, this is where chunks overflow and crashes the game
			* the [[Minecraft:Stripe Lands]] artifact (unless disabled) and movement precision breaking down (like {{BE}}) beginning at X/Z: ±9,007,199,254,740,992 (±2<sup>53</sup>) and worsening every power of two

			Like unmodified clients that use 32-bit integers, world renderer breaks at the 64-bit integer limit of X/Z ±9,223,372,036,854,775,807, and the game will always crash when approaching this limit. Due to the effects mentioned above however, it will be almost completely invisible. Using CheatEngine with this mod, the highest one can go in this case is X/Z ±1.7×10<sup>308</sup> befofe the coordinates roll over to "Infinity" and crash the game. Because world renderer fails at the 64-bit limit in this instance, going this far will leave only an empty sky as the deteoration effects occur beyond this limit and would be unviewable.

			=== BigInt extension, Fringe Lands and beyond ===
	{{conjecture\|section=1}}		{{conjecture\|section=1}}
	The Fringe Lands ~~are known~~ from {{BE}} ~~can also generate at extreme distances in the Java Edition~~, at about 7×10<sup>25</sup> ~~blocks~~ out in the corners, or between 8.175×10<sup>48</sup> and 2.359×10<sup>51</sup> blocks out in the Edges.		Should the game be patched instead using a BigInteger mod (again ''without'' patching the noise values), then the Far Lands will extend even further beyond the 64-bit limit mentioned above. The Far Lands will then progressively break down into thinner and thinner stripes, known as the Fringe Lands from {{BE}}, before leaving only spaced out blocks before leading into an endless [[Minecraft:ocean]] and [[Minecraft:bedrock]] floor, at about X/Z 7×10<sup>25</sup> up until 5.3707×10<sup>26</sup> out in the corners, or between X/Z 8.175×10<sup>48</sup> and 2.359×10<sup>51</sup> blocks out in the Edges.

	It is ~~only possible~~ to ~~see them~~ with ~~manipulating~~ the ~~Noise Scale~~, or by ~~using mods that allow for travel to extreme distances~~.~~{{info needed\|What mods~~?}}		Beyond this point, it remains the same, and what happens after is entirely dependent on how the game is patched, due to BigInt having the ability to change how numbers are stored. This means that, if configured, bedrock and ocean can generate beyond X/Z ±1.7×10<sup>308</sup> (±2<sup>1024</sup>) without the coordinates rolling over to "Infinity" and crashing the game, if numbers are set to be stored in 128-bit (quadruple) and even 256-bit (octuple). As Java’s own BigInteger class maxes out at 2<sup>2<sup>31</sup>-1</sup>, this is theoretically the absolute farthest one could possibly even reach, at X/Z 10<sup>6.46×10<sup>8</sup></sup> as both BigInt and the coordinates would overflow, the latter rolling over to "Infinity" and crashing the game, making this the absolute maximum ''Minecraft'' can generate, even with extensive modding. However, this is an exceptionally gigantic number that any attempts usinf this method would almost certainly crash the game long before then. The highest reached so distance using this method so far is X: 2.5963×10<sup>157,826</sup> by YouTuber hypernebule, on June 8, 2026.<ref>[https://youtu.be/NMnCJBHEFXY?is=k2qD6xBF2Mv2lpm5 Going further then anyone ever has in Minecraft.].
