Large Biomes is a world type that generates Overworld worlds at a higher scale than in normal worlds. It does not affect Nether biomes at all.[1]
Generation[]
Prior to version 1.18, Large Biomes worlds were generated as Default worlds, but had 16 times as much area (multiplied by 4 along the X and Z axis), causing the biomes of the Overworld to be expansive. A Default and Large Biome world sharing the same seed were geographically the same, overall. Rivers were not larger than they were in a default world.
Because of the multi-noise parameters used to generate biomes as of 1.18, Large Biomes terrain is no longer geographically consistent with the Default generation using the same seed.
The player can use a map to gain a visual representation of the scale of the biomes in their world.
Large Biomes offer a play experience different from regular sized worlds. If a player starts in an undesirable area, such as a desert, it can be difficult to survive. The generation system also leads to rare biomes being far more difficult to come by, but with more valuable resources when they are eventually found.

1.3.1{{Extension DPL}}<ul><li>[[Name Tag|Name Tag]]<br/>{{about|the item that gives names to mobs|the nameplate above a player's head|Player#Username}} {{Item | image = Name Tag.png | renewable = Yes | stackable = Yes (64) }} A '''name tag''' is an [[item]] used to name [[mob]]s in the world and prevent them from despawning naturally. == Obtaining == === Chest loot === {{LootChestItem|name-tag}} === Fishing === Name tags can be caught from [[fishing]] as part of the treasure category with a {{frac|1|6}} chance after the 5% chance of being a treasure catch. The chance of catching treasure increases with the [[Luck of the Sea]] enchantment. === Trading === Master-level librarian [[villagers]] offer to sell a name tag for 20 [[emerald]]s as one of their available trades. == Usage == To use a name tag, it must first be renamed with an [[anvil]], costing 1 [[experience]] level. If it is not renamed, it has no effect when used on a mob. After the name tag is renamed, the player can {{control|use}} it on a mob to give it the name given to the name tag from the anvil. Mobs and name tags can be renamed any number of times. Name tags with the same name are stackable. Once a mob is named, it keeps its name, and the name tag is consumed. When a mob is named, it is excluded from the mob cap count. Effects on various mobs: * A named [[silverfish]] that goes into a block appears to lose its name because it is replaced by a newly generated unnamed silverfish when the block is broken. * A baby (animal or villager) keeps its name when becoming an adult. ** A named [[villager]] keeps its name when transformed into a [[Zombie Villager|zombie villager]]. ** A named zombie villager keeps its name when cured. * [[Wandering Trader|Wandering trader]]s still despawn even if they are named, or in a [[minecart]] or [[boat]]. * A named [[wither]]'s boss bar displays its name instead of "Wither". * Naming an [[ender dragon]] with commands also displays the name in the boss bar. === Limitations === Any mob can be named except for the [[ender dragon]] and [[player]]s. A name tag can rename an [[armor stand]], though it does not show the nameplate above its head until <code>CustomNameVisible:1b</code> is set as an extra step. {{control|Using|use}} a name tag on a villager renames the villager instead of opening the trading interface. A saddled pig is renamed instead of being ridden. Using a name tag on any other mob that can be interacted with performs the {{control|use}} action instead of being named. These mobs can be renamed if the player uses the name tag while crouching or standing in a [[nether portal]] because the portal suppresses the {{control|use}} action. Once a name tag is used on a mob, it is impossible to remove the name of that mob without the use of commands or external modifications. === Behavior === Renamed mobs have their name displayed over their head in the same fashion as a mob named through a renamed [[spawn egg]]. Their names can be seen only if they are aimed at from four or fewer blocks away. Mobs that are named using the name tag never despawn in the world, similar to tamed mobs.<ref>{{tweet|dinnerbone|327485109940916226}}</ref> The exceptions are [[wandering trader]]s or if the mob is hostile and the difficulty is switched to "[[Peaceful]]", causing any hostile mobs or any named hostile mobs to despawn immediately. If a renamed mob kills a player, the custom name is used in the death message in place of the mob type name. For instance, if a vindicator named "Johnny" kills a player, the death message is "Player was slain by Johnny". A renamed [[wither]] also has a renamed health bar, and the boss bar doesn't regenerate{{verify}}. === Easter eggs === * Any mob that receives the name "[[Easter eggs#Upside-down mobs|Dinnerbone]]" or "[[Easter eggs#Upside-down mobs|Grumm]]" is rendered upside down. This even includes the player in early versions of Bedrock Edition if the username is set to either of these and you are not signed into Xbox Live. * Naming a [[sheep]] "[[Easter eggs#Jeb sheep|jeb_]]" causes its wool to fade between the dye colors, producing a rainbow effect. The [[wool]] that drops when the sheep is [[shear]]ed or killed is the original color of the sheep before the sheep was named. * Naming a [[rabbit]] "[[Rabbit#Toast|Toast]]" causes it to have a special memorial skin of user xyzen420's girlfriend's [http://www.reddit.com/r/minecraftsuggestions/comments/27hjog/to_themogminer_my_bunny_is_missing_please_help_me/ missing rabbit]. * Naming a [[vindicator]] "Johnny" causes it to be aggressive and attack all [[mob]]s including the wither (except [[ghast]]s and other [[illager]]s). The hostility even extends to [[Ravager|ravagers]] in [[Java Edition|''Java Edition'']], as the "Johnny" vindicator can also attack the ravager while it's riding it. == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Name Tag |spritetype=item |nameid=name_tag |form=item |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |notshowbeitemforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Name Tag |spritetype=item |nameid=name_tag |id=548 |form=item |foot=1}} == History == {{History|java}} {{History||1.6.1|snap=13w16b|[[File:Name Tag JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added name tags.

A [[Crafting Table|crafting table]] can be used to convert a "Tag" item into a "Byte Tag." The amount of [[stick]]s added to the crafting recipe specifies the value of the Byte, as a [[wikipedia:Signed number representations#Two's complement|signed 8-bit value]]. For example, a "Tag" and a full stack of sticks make a Byte with the value <code>64b</code>, while 255 sticks result in <code>-1b</code>. Only one of the sticks is consumed. Two Bytes can be crafted into a "Short Tag" (equivalent to 16 bit), two Shorts into an "Int Tag" (equivalent to 32 bit), and two Ints into a "Long Tag" (equivalent to 64 bit). Many other combinations that form either 16, 32, or 64 bit are possible. For example, two Shorts and an Int make a Long. When combining values, their digits are stuck together in the given order, e.g. <code>1b</code> and <code>0b</code> make <code>256s</code> (equivalent to 0100<sub>16</sub> in [[wikipedia:Hexadecimal|hexadecimal]]). Undoing any of these crafting actions in e.g. a stonecutter is not possible. "Float" and "Double Tags" can be crafted by adding one or two [[boat]]s to any numeric tag.

Compound Tags of any length can be created by concatenating two or more Compound Tags. **An empty pair of Curlies produces an empty Compound Tag with the content <code>{}</code>. *A pair of Square brackets that enclose any number of values, e.g. 7 Bytes, create a "List Tag" with the content <code>[0b,0b,0b,0b,0b,0b,0b]</code>. **Because of the limited size of the crafting table only 7 values can be put between Square brackets at a time. List Tags of any length can be created by concatenating two or more List Tags. **An empty pair of Square brackets produces an empty List with the content <code>[]</code>. **"Name" items cannot be used in a List. The resulting Compound and List Tags can be used as values in other Compound and List Tags, as deeply nested as you want. ==Usage== Tags appear to have no further functionality. They cannot be eaten or placed in the world, except in an item frame, as each other item can. However, Compound Tags with values like <code>{Enchantments:[{id:"minecraft:sharpness",lvl:127b}]}</code> will show the [[Enchanting|enchantment]] glint and actually act accordingly when used.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/129xdyl/i_figure_out_how_the_nbtcrafting_in_the_vote/</ref> This appears to work with many weapon and tool [[Enchanting#Summary of enchantments by item|enchantments]]. In theory, an extremely lucky <code>replace_recipe_output</code> vote can change the crafting recipe for compound tags to output something else. When cheats are enabled you can test this with a command like <code>/vote rule minecraft:replace_recipe_output approve {key:"minecraft:compound_tag",value:"minecraft:netherite_sword"}</code>. However, as long as this vote is approved no other compound tag can be crafted. Use <code>/vote rule minecraft:replace_recipe_output repeal *</code> to undo all recipe replacements. In combination with the <code>midas_touch</code> vote tag items can be converted into [[Gold Ingot|gold ingots]]. These retain their NBT data. When the world is loaded in another version of the game tag items disappear, but gold ingots persist. ==Trivia== *This implies that a [[Name Tag|name tag]] is 128 bit. *Compound and list tags are special in so far that the value they show in their [[tooltip]] is not merely a property of the item, but their ''actual'' [[NBT format|NBT data]]. This is also the reason why naming them is disabled as that would mess up the NBT data. *The snapshot also contains an [[History of textures/Unused textures|unused texture]] for an {{ItemLink|End Tag}}. ==History== {{History|java}} {{History||23w13a_or_b|[[File:Tag.png|32px]] Added tags.}} {{History|foot}} ==Gallery== <gallery> Tag.png|Tag Bit.png|Bit Byte Tag.png|Byte Tag Double Tag.png|Double Tag End Tag.png|End Tag Float Tag.png|Float Tag Int Tag.png|Int Tag Left Curly.png|Left Curly Left Square.png|Left Sqaure List Tag.png|List Tag Long Tag.png|Long Tag Name (23w13a or b).png|Name Right Curly.png|Right Curly Right Square.png|Right Square Short Tag.png|Short Tag Sssyntax Error.png|Sssyntax Error String Tag.png|String Tag </gallery> == References == {{reflist}} {{items}} {{jokes}} [[pt:Tag (item)]] [[Category:Joke items]]</li></ul> | Experimental Snapshot 1 | Removed large biomes. | |||

Trivia[]
- The scale of biomes can be altered through the
firstOctave
parameters inbiome_source
of Custom worlds. Decreasing eachfirstOctave
by 2, roughly makes biomes have a similar size to Large Biomes. This affects thetemperature
,vegetation
,continentalness
, anderosion
parameters. Conversely, increasing all 4 parameters by more than 2 creates a more rugged terrain. - The Legacy Console Edition added a biome scale slider in TU54 with a "large biome size" option. This differs from large biomes on Java Edition by a scale factor of 4x smaller biomes on Legacy Console. This is due to Legacy Console Edition's default generated worlds using small biomes with 4x smaller biomes compared to default worlds on Java and Bedrock, and "medium sized biomes" 2x smaller than Java/Bedrock.
