obfuscate minecraft seed
so theres people that uses some mincraft pie chart to locate structures, is it possible to make it so that you can't find structures using that?
also ive seen people use seedcracker to crack mnicraft seeds,
is it also possible to find a way to disable that? Maybe obfuscate the seed or somethign ive heard similar?

the pie chart is an extra bit of the f3 menu thats existed in the game for pretty much as long as i can remember, its use it so show how long it took to render things, the data you can get from that is more specific such as like chests and such which structures tend to have some so you can atleast find certain things around you. that cant exactly be disabled by the server and i dont think you can do much about it without hindering regular people
the thing is people dont tend to have direct access to your seed if you disallow the /seed command being used
but theres plenty of ways to try to reverse engineer the seed. but still then thats not always good enough on spigot servers and their forks since structures have a different seed then the current map
so is there a way to try to prevent reverse engineering it?
If you use custom world gen probably
To clarify a bit, obfuscating seed and prevent pieray are two different things
i wanted to prevent pieray first, but apparently it seems taht it isnt really possible
so i was wondering if its possible to obfuscate seeds as it seems thats the only choice
For obfuscation people either use a fork or a plugin that uses a different seed to generate structures, since most seed crackers use structures to determine which seed your world has
On the other hand, pieray is the thing on the f3, I havenโt tested if raytrace antixray can solve that, probably should
Exactly why do you want this btw? @jadyen
Large playerbase, Anarchy player's, Annoying people, Etc
annoying people that joins for the first day on the server and managing to retrieve themselves 5 trials 5 bastions and 5 end cities ๐ญ
:hmm:
Unless they use some crazy cracked client. That takes a lot of work to find it day 1
i saw seedcracker myself, i dont think its that hard to crack it i guess
interesting
I donโt think thereโs a real fix for that, even without pieray they can use a cheat client with freecam
The end cities part could very well be seed cracking tho
freecam is fine with me a lot of my friends use freecam for building, just wondering if theres a way to just remove the seedcracking and pieray
is there a example that you know of?
I think I have something for seed cracking, give me a min
thanks alot

I literally found this yesterday, so I haven't tested it yet
thanks
a quck question, how does it work itself?
But if your world is already generated I don't think it will be of much use tbh, your structures are already generated
thats alright, we were planning on restarting anyways
It does this
When they crack the seed using the structures, they will retrieve a completely different seed
oh so they kinda mix the seeds up?
Might have a couple of bypasses using other techniques, but this will probably drive away the average skid
yup
oh thats pretty cool
i dont think theyll be going that far to crack a seed
thanks alot
and pieray is very hard to prevent?
except for raytracer antixray
which is paid
I'm gonna try it out now
oh thanks, if it works ill think about buying it then
Even if it works I'm not sure I can recommend it, support has been dead
Unless you plan on staying on 1.21.4 for a while after 1.21.5 releases or they update fast
oh really
alright then
if it works ill think about it, i dont think theyll abuse pieray alot if they cant use seedcracker
another question because im not sure if i post another forum im gonna get warned, is it possible to reduce the size of veins in minecraft? like reduce the amount of iron ore that spawns
Doesn't prevent pieray
Btw, about the seed cracking, you can also change the seed for structures in spigot.yml

An explanation of Spigot's configuration file.
You can do that on world generation settings but realistically speaking you'll probably spend hours understanding that format, so I'd just generate a world in singleplayer using the GUI and then move it to the server

Each level is its own folder. A level folder is often identified by having a level.dat file, along with other subfolders to store the maps and regions of the level.
