Is it pre-determined which side the Hallow spawns?

I killed the Wall of Flesh 2 times and everytime the Hallow always spawns on the side I don't like...

It is determined by world seed, so yes. When you generated your world, it's already determined how and where it will generate the V. If you have a drunk world though, I'm not certain if it's determined if the corruption or crimson will be used, or if it switches which will be used as primary each night.

It switches the prime evil in hard mode at 0430 nightly so you can farm both kinds of mimics by placing corrupt keys in chests. This may also carry over to which it uses to draw the V, but I've not tested, nor have I heard of anyone testing.

Thanks for the answer.I'm trying to use TEdit to force my world to spawn the Hallow on the right side, any idea on how I do that?

I'm not familiar with TEdit, so no, I'm sorry.

Pretty sure you can't change the way it spawns in TEdit. What you can do, is paint your evil to hallow and hallow to evil. Just some brushes and filters magic.

This is false. It's not pre-determined.

The image above is me regenerating the exact same seed for 4 attempts. The worldgen function is called the tick after killing the wall of flesh. Do not spread miss information.

Which version is that?

In worlds generated before 1.3.4, however, it is completely random.

If it's before 1.3.4 you're correct. If it's after 1.4, then you might be correct again as it's not been retested, but as of right now, it is believed that it is predetermined by world seed and has been tested as such.

This was in version 1.4 dude. I just tested this an hour ago and it still works. Stop acting like you know it all when you do not. At least take the initiative to test it before making rash conclusions.
