@Khoorn Hey i have a pretty big issue. As you know 1.2.7 creates areas with no ores. I then downgraded to 1.2.6 and it didn't fix the issue (using RB). So then i use 1.2.8 and i find newly generated land made up of oceans, plants, and ores. The only issue is my world is a wasteland. No leaves, little water, no plants of any kind, Not even grass. Is there anything that could be causing this? All i want is the ores. thank-you

I actually just figured it out, It was the height I was having a problem with, And I just couldn't understand how the terrain generation was handled. I do now and am having a much more entertaining time create my overhangs and floating islands.

On a side note though, this does need the settings explained better, I'm going to keep messing with it and try to maybe document what I learn, It may help others.

Thanks for the reply

Land and biome sizes are counter-intuitive. As I understand it, GenerationDepth is an iteration count, where each higher iteration places terrain at a smaller and more granular level, like a fractal zoom. So setting LandSize to 10 (the tenth iteration out of 15) will, in fact, result in less land.

Try looking at this forum thread for examples, with pretty pictures!

@Wow996

Unfortunately, this is a limitation with the client. The server sends the world seed to the client, which generates biome colors locally, based on the vanilla terrain generation algorithm instead of Terrain Control's.

Khoorn's supposedly thinking about a Spout addon that would ensure clients render correct biome colors and weather.

@xKoKSii

Does removing the biome from the NormalBiomes list in WorldConfig.ini do what you want?

I'm starting to get very annoyed with this plugin now, I have land rarity on default at 97, generation depth at 15, land size at 10. Everything else is set to default.

So...

Why do I always spawn on an island with no large landmasses in sight Why do I always spawn in a swamp Why do extreme hills always hit the hight limit almost Why do I not get large landmasses even tho the settings are set to give me large masses of land.

I havn't edited the individual biome files but I have read the and it states that there is a BiomeHeight setting in the main config when there is not, I have tried adding this manually and it removes it on world generation.

Can someone please tell me what i'm doing wrong.

Could the author please document the settings files please.

In the dev build my plains biomes have different colors in them is there a way to fix this or is it a bug? Im sorry if there is an obvious answer, i haven't use PTM before.

Oh, the reason I think it might be a bug is, that I havent changed any of the settings, I just updated the plugin and regenerated. But I did some changes to other biomes. So I'm not 100% sure that its not my fault somehow :)

Edit: Regenerating world now again: http://dereknor.dyndns.org:8123/

Its going to take 12 hours, maybe more. The Dynmap is much slower then the worldgeneration-tool. So the generation will take about 10 hours and dynmap will take about 10 more hours. Its a 32,000 x 32,000 blocks world now :)

The different biomes look nice and different now. Extremhills got real stonemountains without dirt, there are nice beaches at some biomes at the ocean, nice islands in the ocean, and I also made many changes to the ores. Like diamonds mostly in iced mountains, iron in normal mountains and redstone under swamp and deserts. Really like that world, but I think I will regenerate it a few more times, I always find something to change :)

Not sure if it is a bug, but I regenerated my own world again with the new 1.2.8 version (I think i used 1.2.5 or 1.2.6 before that).

I use 2 islands for ocean. One with plains and one with extreme hills (I use 2 costum biomes "island" and "island2" for that)

Last generation it just made nice islands. But now it just made "island"-islands, but I cant see "island2" anymore with hills. They are both as costom biomes in the world.ini and they are also set as islands. So this might be a bug?

@Khoorn

Hey is it possible to delete a Biome?

@Khoorn

Hmm… of course, now I can't reproduce that exception, after getting it all afternoon. I'll keep an eye out for it and post a full config and log if I run into it again. Thanks!

Hey Khoorn, I've been getting this NullPointerException and stack trace with CB r1572 and Terrain Control 1.2.8 while exploring new chunks. As far as I can tell, it only happens when I've got BOB objects loaded:

https://gist.github.com/1488341

Let me know if looking at the BOBs or config files might help. Thanks, and keep up the great work!

When will 1.2.9 come?

It still working with RB 1597 ?

@Khoorn

OldGenerator still don't works for me :/ (no error)

WorldConfig.ini : http://pastie.org/3023715

(In /plugins/TerrainControl/worlds/CubikStrike/WorldConfig.ini

Config in Worlds.yml : http://pastie.org/3023717

Help me :(

khoorn, could you possibly upload a couple of your own worlds for people to play around with? would be really helfull when trying to learn the ropes :) great work btw :)

New worlds generated with TC don't have any ores in them. Only other relevant plugin I'm using is Multiverse. Help?

EDIT: I reverted to 1.2.5, and ores generated correctly. Then 1.2.7, and ores were broken again. Ores must be broken in 1.2.7
