The seed templates

The seed templates is an interface Template:In that allows the player to choose from a number of preset Minecraft:world seeds for generating worlds with specific features or landscapes near the Minecraft:world spawn. There are 26 different seed templates.

Usage

To get to the seed template interface, from the "Worlds" tab in the Minecraft:play screen, select "Minecraft:Create New World" twice. 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 screen. This screen 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.

Seed templates are only accessible with an Internet connection, even though world creation does not require this. This is because seed templates can get updated through asset updates outside the normal update cycle.

Discontinued presets

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

Starting in Minecraft:Bedrock Edition 1.10.0, strongholds have less chance of spawning under a village, and with Minecraft: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 Minecraft:Bedrock Edition 1.17.40, several seeds were removed in preparation for the Minecraft:Caves & Cliffs Part II update (Minecraft:Bedrock Edition 1.18.0), because they were made obsolete by the introduction of significant changes in the terrain generation algorithm.<ref>Template:Citation</ref> Most of these worlds were restored to the seed templates in 1.18 with new seed values.
