Finding the Perfect World Seed! ▫ Minecraft 1.20 Survival Guide ▫ Tutorial Let's Play [S3 Ep.0]

[@roenais]

for anybody else looking to find their perfect world seed, i like to use the program cubiomes! it's similar to the chunkbase seed viewer, but it lets you input parameters for biomes (ie. desert within 400 blocks of spawn, ocean monument within 800 blocks of spawn) and searches through random seeds to find options for you. the parameters are a little difficult to understand for a beginner so if you're not super picky then chunkbase works fine, but if you're really, REALLY picky about the biomes you want, i find it useful!

[@magma_fire_bagwan]

Definitely trying this out later. Thanks for the info

[@BooksMusicMe17]

This sounds really good for me! I spent ages searching for seeds I liked for my last couple of worlds and still got stuck with no key biomes within thousands of blocks of spawn last time, so this should really help!

[@mooing_cowmilk]

beat me to it

[@cobusvanderlinde6871]

Is it compatible with large biomes?

Nothing will ever top up the first ever season of the Minecraft survival guide, the 1st starter place and all the projects combined along with the buildings fused together just makes it so special. Its beautiful

[@legendracer4861]

@@Pixlriffs hi. if you're looking for a challenging spot to build a base on this season(maybe at a later point in time when you're more established in the world), try a hill. not any hill, one that is pretty tall(peak at y level 125-130 or so) but at the same time doesn't really have too much of space on top. when i decided to play on one world for the rest of my time, i spawned straight in a desert village which i was quick to leave and head west, and in about just 350 blocks, i found exactly the kind of spot iv'e described. it had a sizeable crack of sorts leading into a big cave on one of its sides, but i decided to settle at the top of it and now, 1400 days into the world, i still struggle to fit something nice and beautiful on it. i'd like to see you try doing that in a video, maybe you could show me the way to do things on it using your superior building skills. super excited for the new series, good luck on your future in that promising world we just got a glimpse of in this video! the spawn in that looks just perfect, not too much drama and the perfect blend of things.

[@eMe_peridot_hare]

Hearing otherside fade in as the outro music made me SO happy, it's become synonymous w Survival Guide for me since S2 and hearing it return while looking at that gorgeous mountain... It's so very fitting. Here's to a new season of exploration and creation 🎉

[@mirthevanhoorn]

I love that you're showing how to choose a seed, but there's still something so magical about the first chuncks rendering in and the anticipation of where you spawn.

Welcome to the world of minecraft

[@Shadowigel]

the final location looks like a great start for a new season! i love the mountain, how the cherry trees kinda wrap around and waterfalls flow out of it.. just gorgeous

[@liamjanssens7014]

Been playing Minecraft for 10 years now, 3 of which on a server with a couple of friends. I never knew chunkiest could display the height of the world, guess there's always something new to learn so thank you for this video Pix!

[@viduuu07]

Another tip: You could use the "Highlight Biomes" option to highlight only the biomes youre looking for (Cherry Grove, Desert, etc.)

[@eloquentornot]

Season 3!!! I love the survival guide! And it's the seed from the stream, yay!! I love that water gradient so so much, I was thinking that it's fine if a cherry grove is small because the trees themselves create the particles unlike the nether biomes, but the one thing you can't replicate by planting trees is that gorgeous new water colour, and the water flowing through the different biomes like that is so lovely!

[@darylhanman11]

Can’t wait for later today, I’ve had my seed picked out for weeks and have been sitting waiting for this day. So glad the survival guide is back cannot wait to see where you take this world mate 😅

[@SuperMimiaa]

🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@grutarg2938]

I think it'll be nice having that iconic cherry blossom mountain. I really like how the color of water changes at the waterfalls go down the mountain.

[@imperfectimp]

That mountain does look mighty impressive. I can already see potential for some amazing garden builds with the new Sniffer plants on there and pagodas made from mangrove and birch wood.

[@zsantos6295]

Thank you Pixlriffs for this video. My boyfriend and I are newbies, playing on android. We started a world using a taiga template. We were trying so hard to find other biomes (swamp, snow, desert) and are having a very hard time. Thank you! We've now decided to start a new world with a new seed to our liking. Surely we'll follow this series!

[@Lea_D.]

Very nice intro to the series! Both of the seeds you explored before revealing your chosen seed look pretty good, too.

[@hadihadi676]

ahh this man is still here, i remember years back me starting to play minecraft and looked up for tutorial this man showed up, i loved the guy and his play through, stopped playing minecraft now but youtube just suggests this to me, u still got that beautiful voice pix.

[@johanputter5061]

Hey Pixl, thanks for the "0" eps and I think you got a great seed for S3. Can't wait to see what you "dig" up in this series!

[@VinZClan]

I've been playing this game since 2011-2012. I've always started on a random seed without knowing anything about the close by environmnet. As i kept playing i got discouraged because the world i was playing on was lame. I've done so for many worlds and 99% of them i've stopped playing for the same reason. Now, i've never tried doing it the way you do it, but it actually makes a lot more sense. You waste no time exploring the close by regions and if you see a world you like you actually get really inspired and thats what i was lacking. A world that feels like it could be my main world that i play for a extended period of time. I thank you for making this and it actually shows that it doesn't matter how long you've been playing for. Everybody plays in a different way and i enjoy finding new ways of playing the game. Thank you for this guide :)

[@jaskirat816]

Most of the time I get bored of watching large videos...but I can listen to Pix's soothing voice and his way of teaching stuff for hours...been here for more than two and half years and I actually Learned playing Minecraft from pix's survival guide season 1....very very excited for season 3 of the survival guide...

[@TheJoe7Six]

I love starting new worlds with new challenges! So glad you're choosing the perfect seed! For a lot of players, it really is important to get a seed that works best for them. I like to have flat areas nearby with villages. Bonus if there's a pillager outpost as well. A simple raid farm combined with villager trading can jumpstart a world in a major way!

[@nikkiklosterman3373]

Sooo thrilled you went with that seed 🩷 I was fully wowed by it on your stream 😍 Excited to learn new things, discover, & explore the new update along with your S3!

[@M_Teeboo]

My passion for minecraft tends to wane and I love that when it comes back you are there with a bunch of content to either refresh my memory or to teach me brand new methods of playing. It makes loading up my old world or a new one exciting again.

[@mintycheddar3854]

I have been playing Minecraft for more than ten years and have been a fan of the Survival Guide since the beginning of the first season. I am looking forward to the refreshed approach with each episode starting in a tutorial that segues into demonstrative play. In this episode I especially like the suggestion to list criteria for selecting a new world seed. That made me think about previous worlds that I have most enjoyed. Those with extensive waterways that allow relatively easy access to many different biomes stand out for me. So, I will take the time to make a list of criteria and will use ChunkBase to look for an attractive world that features a network of waterways that I can use to best advantage. Thanks for the suggestion! Thanks for starting a new Survival Guide series! I am looking forward to enjoying each new episode over the coming months.

[@vradenknight4872]

I can’t wait to watch this series. I’ve been playing Minecraft for a little while now, but every week I still learn something new. I’m sure your videos will really help me out. I’m grateful that there’s people out there like you, producing serious, educational, quality content. Thank you

Extremely late to this but the last time I played you weeen able to interact with villagers so this is a must watch

[@humourlessjester3584]

I'm really glad you picked out your seed this season. I play exactly like this, in order to want to play more I like living in worlds that whisper to me build ideas before I start playing. I think this trend really started during 1.18 for me. Because if you get an uninspiring seed it feels to me more tedious to treck the new terrain, whereas you can have inspiring terrain where you can be excited everyday for your builds to be around awesome landscapes.

[@arrivalking]

Hey Pix! You should really use the *relic* music disc music as the episodes end, it would really sound fitting and awesome!

[@miagood1936]

I’m so excited for this season! I watched the first and second season -although I was always a couple of episodes behind, but this season I’m going to play along and I think I’ll also use the seed you found. There’s some really cool looking caves and I agree that mountain is gorgeous!

[@eahco8476]

If you plan to spend a significant amount of time building a world, taking the time to find a seed that you really love is worth the time and effort. Looking forward to season 3 Pix. I love watching you play on SMP's, but Survival Guide has a special, irreplaceable quality that imitations just can't compare to.

To be honest, just a small note here, I would've loved it when you would have taken images from the biomes (maybe add slight blur) and put them where grey background was (i.e. @05:00). This would've given it a nice touch. Or moving the Chunkbase stuff to one side and have images to the right (or left) of it. :D As always though, it's been a very nice video and I'm stoked for Season 3! :D

Hey pix! I've been following you since Empires Season 1, tldr I've binged a great deal of your stuff! You are by far one of my favorite MC creators! I love the survival guide a lot, as I am a noob when it comes to Minecraft but you have made it quite easy for me to get into the game! I was originally going to follow along with the same seed but I found my own with the help of chunk base and I think you would appreciate what I found! Not too far from spawn is an amazing Cherry grove on top of a mountain biome, the middle of the grove (top of the mountain) is a water filled crater. It had several cave entrances and indents in the cliff-face that I made a winding cave and mountain path up to the top. at the midway point my mountain path opens up onto a cliff where a single Cherry tree stands growing on the cliffside. I love to just stand beneath it and watch the blossoms fall! I never would have tried looking for cheery groves like this if it wasn't for you! Wonderful job Pix and keep up the great work!

I started playing MC in the demo version and on 1.13. Because I was in another country, it was over a year before I was able to buy Java edition (although I was able to buy Bedrock edition for my phone). For me, the demo seed is so iconic that I always start in 1.13 North Carolina and load it in (and walk to the 1.13 plains village I remember to load that in too) before upgrading to the current version. A MC world wouldn't feel the same without that.
