Hi
world seed and the changes by TC-Mod are two differnt things.
If You use different world seed (in server.properties) You will always get different worlds (more or less) even using the exact same values in TC-Mod and vice versa.

If You use a (prefilled) world AND the same seed in server.configs, You will see the exact same world to show in game.
If You use the exact same configs in TC-Mod AND the exact same seed in server.properties, You will too be able to watch the exact same world building up by traveling around in game.

if You don´t use the same seed, different world will be build up, TC-Mod will take over the main distribution and so on, but the world will be always different in it´s overall distribution and so on.
As I always tell people who use my configs, but refuse to use my seed to in their server.properties file...this can leed to very confusing and different results, mostly not very nice ones.

How to convert and use "old" worlds in new MC 1.2.3 + server, has been told in former posting by myself.

To conclude You question again:
To use a prerendered TC-Mod made world, You nedd the same seed in server.config AND the exact same configs for TC-Mod.
If one is missing or different, the world will show like You know it until the parts are reached, which aren´t prerendered before.
The new parts will always build up (giving ugly steps many times) following the seed AND TC configs which are used.

If I´m wrong here with something, everybody should tell me, but this is exactly what I´ve experienced so far with ALL versions of MC and TC (even with BTM former).

Hi,
I will contact Khoorn by mail and ask him when he will update the TC-Mod for MC 1.2.2.

As a "workaround" for all who can´t wait....I tried out a "fixed world solution":

1. SAVE Your world(s)
2. Use MC 1.1 and TC v14 and render Your world with "WorldBorder"-Mod
Use:
/wb set 5000
to set border of Your world to radius 5000 (example)
use now:
/wb <YOUR WORLD NAME> fill 50 176
and
/wb fill confirm
to render (fill) the world in a diameter of 10000.

3. Save this world.

Now use MC 1.2.2 and the last bukkit dev (!) build from:
http://dl.bukkit.org/downloads/craftbukkit/

Do not use TC-Mod or any other mods, because it isn´t updated yet !!!

4. Now simply put in the root of the server the saved (old but full rendered / filled) world from the workaround above.

5. Open server.properties and put in the world mane of Your rendered world from above.
save.

Now start the (new) server and bukkit will convert Your world to the new specifications.
(Takes some long time depending on the size of rendered radius and You can watch this in the console (local PC), if using a Start.bat like I do)

I tested it some minutes ago and it worked at my PC/Server.
This will only be a workaround for people who can´t wait and need to use their old world now for any reason.
100% logic it will never produce something, which is not still rendered by WorldBorder before because no TC is working behind the scene !

I don´t know what will happen to this "converted" world(s) if TC is updated and used and the WordBorder has been reset by:
/wb [worldname] clear all
to delete all borders from all worlds to be able to extend this world further by TC in the future.
(... but chances are not bad, that converted world(s) will still be working)

Attention:
Only use this "workaround" for testing and NEVER without saving the old world BEFOR doing anything I told here !!!!
Don´t make me responsible if something don´t work or You loose Your world.

PS: And for sure I´m now using MisasHD Texture again with MC1.2.2 ... to avoid ugliness of default MC ;-)
PPS: Works with MC 1.2.3 (out since now...) too same way...grrr, I hate this "Update-Terror" by Jeb ....

Hi,
You are really sure ? ;-)

@domingo15 Hi,
i would say, use the search first and then:
Read, read, read please...
It´s all to find here many times...even a few pages back.
.... and asking / answering all few pages the same things, will spam this place as it is the negative case in most Forums ;-(
