The '''loading world screen''' is a screen displayed when generating or loading a [[world]]. It shows the percentage of the loading progress.

== Java Edition ==
{{Update|Outdated info}}[[File:Chunk colormap.gif|thumb|Chunk colormap of [[Seed (world generation)#Seed 0|seed 0]].]]

The loading screen {{in|Java}} shows a chunk '''colormap''', which is a square that visualizes the rendering of 43 by 43 [[chunk]]s (688 by 688 blocks)<!--{{until|je 1.20.5}}-->. It populates with colored pixels that change color and expand as chunks load. Each pixel represents a chunk, and the color represents the chunk status. Like on other menu screens in ''Java Edition'', a blurred and darkened view of the [[panorama]] is shown in the background.
