Hey everyone! 🌟 Today we’re bringing you a super useful guide on how to set a custom seed on your Minecraft server. We all know that the world of Minecraft is practically infinite and full of possibilities — so let’s make it truly our own! 🚀

“Seeds” are values that determine how the world will generate in the game. 🌱 Since they’re case-sensitive (meaning uppercase and lowercase letters matter), you can create highly specific worlds. Whether you get your seed from your own world using the /seed command, from a friend, or online, the possibilities are endless. 🌌

Steps to Follow:

  • Make sure your server is not running 🚫💻

  • Go to the “Files” tab and delete the “world” folder if it exists. 🗂️🗑️

    ree
  • Open the server.properties file in the file manager. 📝

    ree
  • Find the “level-seed” option (or add it if it doesn’t exist), then enter the seed you want to use.

Common Issue ⚠️: "I can’t find the ‘level-seed’ option!" 😕

Solution ✔️: If you don’t see the option, simply add “level-seed=” to the file and then type your seed after it.


Next, go to the Console tab, start your server, and wait for your new world to generate using your chosen seed. 🌍⏳


All set! Your world is now ready with the new seed! 🌎🌱

Common Issue ❌: "The world isn’t generating with the new seed." 😫

Solution ✔️: Make sure you’ve saved the server.properties file correctly. If the problem continues, try restarting the server and double-check that the seed is typed correctly, without any extra spaces.

Conclusion

We hope this guide has been helpful! 🚀 Remember, don’t hesitate to ask questions on the HolyHosting Discord or contact our support team.
