This documentary is insanely well made . As a Computer Science Student, it’s crazy to see so many familiar (mostly simple) concepts mushed together, somehow resulting in THE game of my early teens. I have to point out: The World Generation Pipeline was explained very well. It’s a complex topic but you managed to break it up into simple steps, painting a coherent image.

This was awesome ! A year or two back I spent a few weeks on an infinite-world generation project as the concept had always fascinated me, but I ended up getting overwhelmed by just all the layers of systems needed to consistently create a compelling result. I read up a bit on minecraft, but most of what was published was either hypertechnical to the point of being difficult to parse, or was so high level it provided nothing. This video was fantastic at bridging the two concepts!

I’ve always wondered how Minecraft generates. I used to think it generated as you walk closer to a new chunk, but since you can type in command to find certain biomes or use a map to find a woodland mansion, I began to think everything must be pre generated. That idea also just made no sense knowing seeds exist. But since the worlds are infinite I wondered how the game would generate something infinite. I have no knowledge of code so this was interesting to me.

@AlanZucconi

Жыл бұрын

I hope this video helped! ☺️ Yes, Minecraft indeed generates new chunks as you walk into unexplored areas. But what goes into those chunks is already predetermined by the world seed! Minecraft worlds are fully deterministic, meaning that from the seed you can recreate all of their features. Some things, like the position of woodland mansions and stronghold can be calculated easily without computing the full map!

i think from the comments i saw that the thumbnails was the problem for the low view count,im guessing it had been changed cz its a very unique thumbnail definitely made me look twice!! really good quality and i see you have replied to alot of the comments which is really uncommon ! great job man

I think this is the best quality video I have ever seen about Minecraft. I had some knowledge about world generation before but this was awesome. And the production? Simply wow. I hope the algorithm keeps pushing it to other people's main page. BTW, I suscribed! :)

This video and @GamesWithGabe 's video are super comprehensive on pre-1.18 terrain gen. Gabe's dives deeper into the overall game and how it's coded and displays, while this goes way deeper into how terrain generation works. For more on 1.18 terrain, you can also see Henrik Kniberg's video, he was one of the main devs on 1.18 and goes into great depth about all of this. Your knowledge about Perlin Noise having watched this video will help when watching that video! :) Hope these other resources help; this video is quite well explained and I'm glad it fits into the other videos around.

Thank you for this incredibly well-done video! I’ve always been fascinated with how Minecraft was built. This video gives me the best glimpse into that I’ve ever seen. I’d love to see something like this but at at code walkthrough level. Keep up the great work!

Thank you so much, this is incredibly kind! It's a shame that Mojang doesn't really allow for their source code to be posted online! For instance, there are a lot of tools to decompile Minecraft, but you can't publish the decompiled source code!

I'd absolutely love to see a breakdown of the other structures etc. The stuff skipped over in this doc. Great stuff!! Very educational!

@AlanZucconi

9 ай бұрын

Thanks! I took over 100 pages of notes, it was hard to decide what to include! The reality is that the position of other structures is often just a nasty equation! 😅 But it's interesting to see how buildings are generated by joining together different pieces!

Yeah no doubt! I've been working with the recently released and still very experimental procedural content generation tool in Unreal. The sheer scope of what is possible to achieve with tools like this is insane and the required equations to make it work even more so! Seeing a detailed breakdown of how a quintessential game handles procedural generation to this scale was definitely enlightening not just as to what can be taken into consideration but also the pitfalls along the way. Our little R&D team in the studio is currently gobbling up this video to see what we can take away from it and to what extend we can apply the knowledge of it to PCG in various projects 😁
