Have you ever got stuck trying to find a specific Minecraft biome? Perhaps you just wanted to find your first elytra and you explored for over two real-life hours with no luck? Well, then you must learn about a great Minecraft tool called Chunk Base. It shows your entire world and all the features in it. This guide will help you learn how to use Chunk Base, so let’s jump straight into it!
How to Find the Seed Code of Your Minecraft World
Before we use Chunk Base, you first need to find your Minecraft world map seed code. You can do this in just a couple steps in both Minecraft versions and our linked guide will showcase them for you. After you find the code, copy it and visit the Chunk Base website.
How to Find Minecraft Locations in Chunk Base
Chunk Base allows you to view your Minecraft world, its biomes and structures in all three dimensions, underground, terrain features, and more. While you’re in Chunk Base, you can locate specific features by clicking on the Apps button at the top, but we recommend you stick to the Map Seed option, which shows all features at once. You can access it in the Recent tab on the right.
When you access the Seed Map app, you’ll see there is a section for you to insert a world seed code, and Minecraft version and to choose the the current dimension you’re viewing. So, take the seed code you copied and paste it here. Don’t forget to set the game version, which can be Java or Bedrock, as well as any specific update.
Below, you can see the icons that represent structure or terrain features, for example (Woodland) Mansion. You can expand this section to see all icons and their names. Enable and disable the icons based on your needs. Under the icons, there is a window that showcases the map of your world. You can zoom in or out and also move around to view the whole map.
If the icon for a Mansion is enabled, you’ll see all the mansion structures on the map represented by the same icon. You may click on any icon to view and copy its coordinates. When you just hover over the map, you’ll see the name of the biome below the window on the right and the exact coordinates of the location on the left. Around the map window, you’ll see the X and Z arrows, as well as more coordinates.
Below this window, you can highlight specific biomes, insert coordinates for a custom location, select surface, underground, and bottom levels, as well as enable terrain and grid lines.
To sum it up, the Chunk Base Minecraft tool allows you to:
- View the size, layout, and coordinates of surface and underground biomes;
- Find the coordinates of any structure that you want.
- Find specific terrain feature coordinates like amethyst geodes, slime chunks, giant ore veins, lava pools, and others.
- Insert your current coordinates and find a way back to your base easily.
- See if the terrain is flat, short, jagged, or tall.
Chunk Base is a very useful website that can save a lot of time and can also help you get back to your base if you’re lost. This was just a surface overview of the tool, so keep messing with it to learn all of its features. Some players do see using Chunk Base as cheating, though in single-player worlds it really doesn’t matter.
That said, we’ve reached the end of this guide and we hope you found it helpful. You may also find random seed maps using Chunk Base, so you can find your own perfect seed. However, you might as well just check out our linked guide on the best Minecraft 1.21 seeds for some amazing options.
