Seed Guard

by DrexHD · on Modrinth

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 26.1–26.2 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.9–1.21.11 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.5–1.21.8 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.3–1.20.4 · Fabric⬇ Download for 26.1–26.2 · Quilt⬇ Download for 1.21.9–1.21.11 · Quilt⬇ Download for 1.20.5–1.21.8 · Quilt⬇ Download for 1.20.3–1.20.4 · Quilt
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

SeedGuard

Protects your world seed by altering feature and structure placement, preventing seed cracking.

How does it work?

When generating worlds Minecraft builds the basic surface shape, then applies biomes and finally adds surface decorations, which consist of features (trees, sugar cane, grass, ores...) and structures (villages, pillager outposts...).

Each feature / structure has its own seed, which is hardcoded in vanilla (to ensure a world with the same seed always looks the same). SeedGuard replaces these seeds with randomly generated seeds, making it impossible to derive the world seed from features or structures.
