SalC1 explains how a collaborative effort used reverse engineering and distributed computing to find the seed of Minecraft's iconic pack.png image.

After 8 months of searching for this iconic mountain image, the seed to pack.png was finally found! Today, I'm going to show you how this feat was pulled off. Seed: 3257840388504953787 (Alpha 1.2.2a - Can be generated up to Beta 1.7.3) Coordinates: x=49, z=0 Pack.PNG Credits: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zdJWcdTydLClg0jy-fpKLH5nR8xT… Pack.PNG Group Photo: salc1.com/hostedfiles/PackPngGroupPhoto.png Official Reddit Post: old.reddit.com//r/MinecraftAtHome/comments/iocx6f/packpng_se… How to replicate pack.png yourself: pastebin.com/CmsEKDev SalC1 Discord Server: salc1.com/discord Minecraft@Home Discord Server: mcatho.me/discord Mentioned Videos: The Mystery of the Minecraft pack.png File: youtu.be/lbR8ZY1Nsm8 Pack.PNG - The Search is Still On!: youtu.be/eC7f9tMslVE Oh look, a hill!: youtu.be/wZGPg6Ckp3Q Pack.PNG Server: IP: packpng.salc1.com (1.12.2 - 1.20.1) Thanks so much to PebbleHost for originally hosting the server after the video's release!
