- From a simple flat world to a complex, multi-dimensional sandbox game, Minecraft has a vast history. One of the most fascinating things to look at are the distance effects of the game. Minecraft has always had bugs and glitches when you travel super far away. So, in this video, we will take a deep dive into the amazing history of Minecraft's distance limits. This video will cover much more than just the far lands.

edit 8/20/2023: why do i sound like that - Hry
they should re add the farlands, cause nobody would casually travel 12 million blocks not expecting anything. people that walk there know they exist and want to see them, they should be added to the game
the closest thing we've gotten so far is the farlands added in minecraft story mode, LMAO
"hmm.. i like big numbers so lets go a long distance!"
"what the hell is this?"
Well they still exist, but Mojang pushed them so you would need mods to actually see the farlands.
@@Boowompland69 how many blocks from spawn was it
@@ivanivanov-bo4rs idk
It's always unnerving how reality breaks apart at the farlands.
Yes, it’s kinda creepy tbh
@@southfolkelectionpredictions yeah
if your a christian you need to repent of your sins PLZ
It's creepy when you fall into the void when the farlands blocks break
Minecraft is nothing compared to other games
Am I the only one who feels the incredibly uneasy, light headed, vertigo feeling whenever travelling through the far lands. Similar to the feeling I get during the black hole scene in interstellar...
Yeah.. i get that feeling too
me too
MUUUUUUURRRPH
You described that very well, thats how i felt after watching the whole video at the middle of the night
Lol me to
8:08 The reason why the Far Lands appear different in the earlier Infdev build was because the interval between sampling points on the Y axis was most likely 4 blocks like on the X and Z axes, and it was only changed to 8 blocks on the Y axis later in Infdev. Noise is only calculated at sampling points and interpolated in between using a quintic equation whose overflowing at the floating-point limit results in another set of Far Lands far beyond 2^63, which I refer to as the Fringe Lands.
10:18 The Far Lands can generate smooth at their initiation if one of the noise generators has an offset that pushes the value at 12550824 just slightly over 2^31, and it is a rather nice effect.
11:26 It can actually be seen when teleporting in the negative direction on only one axis (i. e. -25101648 150 1 or 1 150 -25101648) in the form of minor changes in the artifacts of the Edge Far Lands.
Why does the far lands on 1.18.2 and 1.19 becomes highlands instead(Just without the huge caves)
You deserve more subscribers
so uhh... can you dumb it down for me?
@@AngryGamer1224 Basically, Perlin noise is the great algorithm behind minecraft smooth terrain generation, in this case he explained that by a different configuration on older versions, far lands generated differently.
@@karmatical5837 ok
So why would they remove the far lands from the original game? It seems like a neat Easter egg and isn’t doing anything harmful. I also think an alternative could be making the world “round” by having you cycle back to the other side after going far enough
yeah that makes sense but i think it wouldnt work because that would be to far fetch and people like believing their world is infinite
@@goldyshadow anyone who remotely understands how computers work knows that it can’t truly be infinite…
@@DanielDuhon yep. the real max distance is 340 uncentillion
fun fact: the game "empyrion" tried exactly that and succeeded and failed to some extent :)
Basically they wrapped everything around a cylinder.
this caused issues with the poles (you can't build on them because of that)
also there is a noticeable teleport whenever you go over the "seam"
I am quite sure that there are solutions for those problems tho.
@@DanielDuhon Yeah, everything is an illusion. In any game it's all fake.
@CristalianaIvor
Couldn't it be done on a flat world instead? After a point the old areas come back on repeat.
Up to the 1024 bit limit, Minecraft would literally be larger than the observable universe. THis many light years: 111050000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. That is literally a 291 digit number! And in addition, that would be 1194086020000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times larger than the observable universe (93 billion light years)! And the latter number is still 280 digits!
When you accidentally create a video game that's bigger than the observable universe
This is about 1 Googleplex that’s the biggest number before infinity
@@dexterwilkinson8033 no, number will keep on going for a hypothetical amount so yeah, sorry buddy but you are wrong
Please write in scientific notation.
@@dexterwilkinson8033 Nope, 10^10^100 isn’t the biggest number before ♾️ and infinity isn’t even close to the smallness close to 10^10^100^100^100^100^100^100^2
subbed last night, great video. do more documentary style stuff and you've got a great channel brewing here. your timing like showing the video length on screen is dead on.
i have no idea why but this makes me really wanna go to the farlands in survival
Only a few people have done that, and it took speedrunners just over 9 months (idk how long they were playing per day.) If you can keep interested that long, go for it! But make sure you know what they'll function like in your version of the game, in the 1.2 something latest version you can't travel out further without teleporting because you can't move within the stripes of the stripe lands (I need to find the actual farland farlands in this version though)
HI MOONIE
this video is great, really in depth. the way the game responds to the player being so far out is what interests me the most about the farlands so having it explained in a linear way is super helpful :D your editing and commentary style is also super engaging. hope to see more video essay/documentary style stuff in the future!
I remember a couple years back (2016-2018? Perhaps earlier) if you made your world a small world (basically a world thats pretty small and has a void around if) on pocket edition you could actually stand on the void if you flew above build height. It was very weird.
This wasn't the normal void, the void was basically like nothing but it felt more physical? Not sure how to explain it
That's not the void, that's a block called invisible bedrock, it is solid and attempting to break it instead targets the block behind it
When console edition first moved to bedrock, that day I discovered the striped lands.
I also discovered that using an extra with rockets lets you fly through it, albeit extremely jittery
The reason hitboxes break and the graphics glitch out is because the floating-point numbers that handle all of the game's math become less accurate the larger they are. Floating point is just a fancy name for how computers calculate decimal numbers. This is also responsible for just about every other bug relating to distance, including the "stutter" and flat flowers. Stuff like this happens in just about every other game too, including CS:GO for instance.
I still wish Notch had finished those sky dimensions and not done the end
Wow, this was an amazing, well edited video! Thank you for making this!
Yo, i don’t understand how you don’t have more subs, your a great creator, just watched and just subbed, keep it up
Good videos man! Keep up the good work!
Woah. It gives me so much atmosphere watching this at night :o
Nice video keep it up bro!
Amazing video, you deserve more subs.
Correction at 5:31: The terrain past 16,777,216 is not solid, not 32 million.
But in the next version(Infdev 13th March) Notch fixed terrain collision and added a world border at 32 million(to prevent far lands), it completely stops the terrain generation, similar to the world border in 1.7 at 27:00 or 7:06, however, in alpha version 1.2, the world border got changed and continues rendering after 32 million, which renders "fake chunks".
hes probably just a new youtuber
Lol
Your content is AMAZING! I can tell how much effort you put into editing. It makes me sad that you don’t have a ton of subscribers. Keep making content!
was shocked when I saw the sub count, hella underrated, keep up the good work man
Infdev 20100327 is the first version where world saves work on infinite terrain that's probably why the large stone walls are replaced with spongy monoliths.
No, they removed the old noise generator and replaced it.
I like advanced explanations behind far lands, because it really is just the tip of a big iceberg behind the behaviors of mathematical limits in computing, how bad floating points can go if you push then to the extreme conditions, the effects in different games, even Roblox has a little "far lands", basically, as you reach the 32 Bit Integer Limit, roblox collision and rendering breaks down, more other games have the same problem as it can't be easily fixed at all.
yep but robloxs max distance is 340.2 undecillion instead of minecrafts 179.76 uncentillion due to using floats instead of doubles like minecraft does. like i can literally drive in a game to like 32768 studs out and see the floating point start getting fucked up. also around 1-2 trillion studs and at some points beyond the skybox in roblox flashes in and out of existence for some reason
@@tristantheoofer2”for some reason” well it’s also just because of floating point imprecision. Eventually you’re so far out the likely skybox snaps in and out of the camera’s view.
another good informative video, deserve more attention, well done i learned thousands of things from this video thank you!!
Underrated channel!! also thanks for documenting all of this, must've been a pain
This us the video I've been looking for for YEARS! Thank you.
Bruh why do you only have 84 subs, your work is simply so underrated
Bro dropped the hardest far lands edit at the start
holy shit dude, this is such an amazing video. im so glad this was in my recommendation.
You managed to show me ways to break Minecraft I haven't even seen Antvenom do! =D Good stuff~
Nice video, i really enjoyed, i hope you get million subscribers
Unrelated but it’s nice seeing another fan of HOME. Wonderful video too
By the way, the stuttering glitch existed due to a bug in the game's rendering engine.
Yes, I meant to mention that but I was a little bit vague when I said that "it was a visual glitch"
underrated channel content is amazing :) remember us ogs when ur famous!
Wait how do you only have like 615 subscribers your content is so good
Amazing video good work 💣💯
Very good and indepth information on the history of the farlands as a whole
Damn look who is here!!
@@demost1918 I am everywhere lol
Was not expecting that intro
this video is extremley under rated!
Fookin incredible video mate, (I’m just commenting for the lubeTube algorithm, for this quality production I hope it blows up!)
When I was playing modded Minecraft I found a very werid generated chunks in the nether
Great video, its clear you put a lot of time into this video well done
The Blocks being glitched at 16,777,216 blocks out is actually the cause For The Stripelands to Generate that far out on Bedrock Edition. They still exist In modern Versions of Bedrock Minecraft. The Farlands Were in Bedrock Edition until 1.17.But Bedrock edition has a glitch where you can randomly fall through the world if you are more than 2048 blocks from spawn. The farther out you go. The higher the chance to fall through the world, The harder it is to walk. Where the farlands used to be in bedrock edition, At the corners, There is floating blocks called Skygrid. I don't know if its in the modern version of bedrock edition or not.
They exist in Java too, but are 9 quadrilion block away form the spawn point
this video deserves way more attention than it got
I can't stop watching this it's so good
The far lands are freaky. I don’t even know what it is about them, but they make me uneasy.
cosmic horror, i think.
it's similar the how black holes and distant space objects freak me out. it's these things that are much bigger than us, much more powerful.
however, i think part of the farlands that's horrifying is that it signifies the beginning of the end of minecraft as a simulation. it is terrifying to think of a being that is higher, more powerful than reality itself. when reality breaks down, the thing we depend on to provide the fundamentals of our world, we are terrified of the force that brings reality itself down. and i think the farlands kind of represent that in a way. it's what makes diseases like alzheimer's so terrifying to some because it's as if reality itself is breaking down to the person who has the disease.
Best Minecraft history video Ive seen. Seriously awesome video. Got a sub from me.
thank you!
10:34 I am convinced that I am possibly the person who discovered that glitch back in 2014.
THAT DIRT EDIT IN THE BEGINNING WAS SO CLEAN
770 subscribers? Dude, your video quality is so amazing that I would have expected a few more zeros after that number lmfao
this man fr deservs 1m subs
love the video
400 subs only? ur underrated!
incredible video.
You deserve way more subscribers
3:07 same thing can happen in roblox where if you go too far from spawn, your player or just objects can just do that.
u deserve more subs!
Underrated youtuber ❤
A LOT of "flavors" of "FarLands" have existed in the Bedrock version. Sadly those are lost. They were absolutely amazing. Stretching blocks, falling through the world but being able to sit in a boat or ride a horse, funny stuff. I wish there were more bedrock edition archives.
I once traveled to the border in 1.12.2 and there the endcrystals are missplaced, tnt doesnt blow up, you cant go trugh portals, dropped items and lighted keep repeatedly falling, trees can generate with dobule log width
You deserve more subs
Nice video
How do i replicate the glitches at 21:53 i went to 13w38b and dont see any severe entity/random Positioning errors.
I wonder if anyone has explored the farlands in that prank infinite dimensions snapshot
Someone needs to make a far lands mod for that version it might exist i just havent looked
just wondering are the far lands still around, if i make a new world and try to travel to the far lands
(using minecraft on xbox)
bro ur mad underrated
extremely underrated CZcamsr!
8:06 its because that from this infdev until a few later, the world generation would generate more hills and such and would be wayyy more extreme and it not exactly how the world gen would be in Alpha and so on, its only a few infdev versions later that world gen would be reworked to how it is in Alpha/Beta (in Beta its the same world gen only that they also added biomes to the map as well but overall same world gen)
I cant believe that you only have 405 subscribers
best music taste fr
Thy gargantuan words make my lunkheaded brain implode
Cool!
I want someone to make an in detail, complete explanation on what happens when the farlands generate
I watched the entire thing. Thank you. It took me three days looking at my comments
He teleported to infinity? How does that work tho does he keep on moving at light speed in that direction?
I love that a good way to get beds with a auquid pause 9:08
29:36 thats adorable
19:33
you are so good
What's the 512 bit interger limit? I want to know
Is it me or my man's voice reminds me so much of technoblade, RIP legend
9:59 that's so trippy
this guy is better than 99.9% of youtubers
use allam a.'s fringe lands mod so you can have a solid ground even on 1 billion or 2 billion blocks.
I wat a farlands world gen option, it looks like a fun challenge
subbed because you put yeat music
W lmao idk why i even did that but thanks
But for real though the bedrock far lands is crazy, it's hard to explain, but when you're there, you can't move and all the blocks are just one buy one I've been there, and it was really cool I recommend you look it up,
I know quite a lot about them, I've actually considered making a full history video but switching versions on bedrock is so janky so idk we'll see
bro watches antvenom everyday
what mod for smooth walking?
Sick yeat intro
you need more subscribers 🤝
6:29 i found the Secret message it says "Motion tracking ain't great don't judge me"
shhhh
You can use Cheat Engine for moving your position while the game is running without saving
2:12 whats the background music of this part?
all music is in the description
@@Lentern i didnt find that specific music.
THAT'S MY BAD I FORGOT TO LINK THAT ONE SONG HERE YA GO czcams.com/video/2y4xKNt_kbM/video.html
So is it possible to get to the end of the RAM stick?
in infdev 20100327 the farlands look different because the patterns of it are different
You need more subs
i think that the secret biome that notch put in was ment to be the ather
ur crazy man
what antvenom video is mentioned at 11:05?
czcams.com/video/ZZx5_vTGkus/video.html
It's kind of a shame Notch made ghost chunks generate at 32 million. Otherwise I could see a madman like MysticalMidget attempting to walk to the farther lands
Idk why but I get really scared when the character falls through the world
Me toooooo, idk why it terrifies me
The farlands were removed from Minecraft Bedrock Edition 1.19 :(
