Bukkit

When all your menu's/choices are on the left side, you should keep such links there too, as by normal website lay out you generally keep such valuable things on one side, and not multiple sides. Not insulting you, merely too used to 'standard' website design. :P

Thanks, I'll try a few of those and confirm they are working correctly.

It's my problem to handle, but merely, I was hoping another has seen this issue and could point at least generally what the cause is. I'm not afraid to toil away and make it work, but right now It's frivolous when I have no damn idea what even generally is causing it! :P

The Bukkit Yml does indeed have the 'World - world name - Generator, etc' bit in it. I'll send it anyways, but I used the plugin prior to great success (heh heh, loved my world with massive overhangs, mysterious caverns, and just down-right chaotic world lay out. So did my entire player base. That took weeks to get ._.), but yeah... this isn't being so friendly to me.

Ah, good point to utilize the same seed. I forgot we can control that now, doh! *bonks head* I was thinking the same, but I haven't played since heck, 1.7 area. Notch... ticked me off with 1.8 and 1.9, to be polite about it. :p

Right! Summing this all up, sending it to ya. I couldn't find your configs on your site, so unless I'm blind, they're not linked to, so I can't test that either >.<

Thanks again, and sleep well.

I know it has a reason, of course. Especially with a plugin THIS intricate, to say 'I'm certain it's a bug' is... arrogant. As there's so many variables, all linking together to output something on a totally different program, it's insane to properly diagnose an issue with accuracy.

1. Of course. 1.1, latest bukkit. And the only download available for the plugin (points above) is what I have in, with a fresh install on my backend, and TC is the ONLY plugin in the server, and has been, since it was freshly reinstalled 2 days ago.

2. Nope. But I can note this 'oddity' with the buggy 'plains' is sporadic. I just purged my map, and reloaded it fresh with the same settings, and now, I spawned in a ice plains biome (which /tc biome shows it as Ice Plains), and barring the insane amount of grass/flowers (that is stock with the settings in the biome.config), it seemed perfectly normal. Then I tried again, and now, I can't even load the server. Server load is at 23% cpu, 500 mb ram, but I log in and my client totally locks up to the point MC crashes from a black screen. Tried again three more times, and it's the terrain doing so... yet I can't find why at all.

I'll attempt your 'config' and run 10 tests to see if it generates the same issues, and if not, I'll then tinker with each general setting (not biome specific) to see if I can break it again to cause the 'plains' issue, to help diagnose this for the future.

Generation Depth (woops) I tried from stock 10, to 15, to 18, to 5, and such variations never going to the absolute extremes to avoid 'issues' with it. My server could handle it easily, but yes. I'd rather not have those extremes be an issue in generation as a variable, as all settings, at some point, caused issue. (from the plains, to oceans, to etc).

Yep. I saw the generation depth images, and I tested it myself to see personally, and I saw the INSANE difference. Why I tested at various levels, and got very varying results which perplexed me. Sometimes it bugged at the same setting, sometimes a normal, beautiful biome would generate.

I think showing you my settings would be the easiest method for us to try and pin down what the heck is doing this, as well as i'll take some pictures of the crazy issues i'm seeing with said settings to further clarify I'm not just going loonie-toon here (feeling like it after 11 hours of this crap getting a good result...! Tweak a tiny number...! And suddenly everything's messed up. Then good, then broken, then good, then broken >.>).

So yes, that is a good proposal, and I'm not panicked over this matter, merely... frustrated without words to describe it, as I have AT LEAST 20 odd players hounding me wanting me to hurry up >.> *grabs fan-beat-stick* back, demons, BACKKK!! Hahaha.

Sorry to sound overly hostile again, not trying to be. Merely a mix of frustration, and accusations of my inability to read when I pride myself for it, is... not a good combination when mixed. :P

Edit: damn you sneaky ninja-editor! I was like wait, question 3? What? DAH! I just replied! :P

For response 3, I am in my FTP and manually purge the world files each time, as well as shut down my back end before altering the settings, and rebooting it fresh. Tedious, but I've seen how not doing so properly can cause very weird bugs in map gen (such as parts of old maps overlapping on new maps x.X).

Edit 2: >.>... you snuck another bit in!

The 'Ocean' thing bothers me as a lot of places say 'proper biome', like Forest, Swamp, etc, yet the places I see the bugs in (such as the plains) says Ocean. So I'm pondering if there's something wrong in the code that Khorn overlooked (which is understandable - this is a CRAZY complex plugin to deal with, and only in the early stages of 2.0). As yeah, it's beneficial to ALL of us if we can pin down issues for him to chase after, and obliterate so the plugin is even better.

@deleted_6846210

Meh, this is frivelous to post here. I'll just pm you and save some grief.

Simplified response to your response, is you ignored my message which states I have read everything in your tutorial, and it has stated NOTHING resolving around my issue. I have copied settings from images provided by you, only to have completely deformed, alien maps return that are classified as Oceans. So either your Tutorial is VERY off (since a new update happened), or something else is going on here.

@deleted_6846210

Hey I freaking love your work so far, Our world need to expand for MC 1.2 so I was wondering if you could upload your work so far, the ones that are in the screenshot I like the forest one you posted and I liked your examples in your tutoral, I was after a Natural looking floating island over ocean biome that was basically skylands biome, I know it could be done since skylands no longer exists in code I figure why not use 1.2 and expand my already 6000x6000 world by 3000x3000 adding 2-4 new biome.

I guess you could call this a request, but the biome have to work around settings in these config files, Also if you tell me why I cant find any rivers anymore that would be great.

Much has changed since I created my world you have worked so much more than I have, so yea if you could create a Skylands floating island biome with things like water running off some of them, and share some of your work like the forest in your below image and some of the ones from the tutorial page the rocky ones that would be awesome.

I was going to just keep expanding the world we have now as I like to explore building is fun but exploring is fun as well so the bigger the world the better I don't really care if the world is MASSIVE like over 4gb lol. we have 6000x6000 of normal ish biome as you can see on our world map http://mindcalf.sytes.net:7799 so the next expansion would be around 3000x3000 and consist of entirely new biome I keep the prev settings in back up folders so I know what settings are for what biome set.

I think you could appreciate what I am trying to do in my world, by making a world that is full of biome that get more and more exciting and diverse as you explore further you uncover more secrets of like the special skyworld like floating biome :), they don't have to float too high over water was wanting to keep at least 30 blocks build height.

hello again...anyone know if theres a way to get SurfaceBlock to load a block with a damage value in biome config? i want this:

SurfaceBlock:31:2

but the program changes it to:

SurfaceBlock:2

in a nut shell im trying to get ferns (id 31:2) and i can only seem to get grass (id2) or dead shrubs (id 31)

Alrighty! Quick question.

I've been modifying the settings, step by step ensuring each works. Yet it seems 75% of the time, the generation 'screws up', and I land up in an archipelago island chain in the middle of an ocean!

Land Rarity is 99.

Land Size is 0.

Rivers rarity is 1, size, 3.

It should generate large continents, yet I've ran 2000+ blocks, and it is only a massive ocean. Using /tc biome, it says Ocean Biome.

Now, sometimes when I make the map, I'm on a seemingly deranged version of Plains, with trees and small hills all over, sometimes the grass is turning swamp color without anything swamp with it, and it's only 10-30 blocks wide. As well, /tc biome shows Ocean Biome.

Can anyone me what the bloody hell is going on here before I go nuts and rip my hair out? ._.? 11 hours going back and forth with this bug, and I'm about to lose my mind as I just cannot pin this damn problem down. >.<

If you wish to ask what I'm trying to do, it's very simple. I am trying to make biomes very large (vs Vanilla size).

- alter a few tiny things of it (Such as the dead-bushes in Deserts being A LOT less common).

- keep land 'continents' not a scattering of torn apart snaky continents.

- Modify Ore deposit rates.

and that's about it. I'm not aiming for floating islands, two tier wonder lands, oceanless worlds, or anything extreme, yet I continue to fall into this bloody problem! >.<

If you require my settings, just gimme a pm and I'll post 'em.

Hopefully someone can help me, and yes, I've reviewed the tutorial by Mysource and confirmed everything I've done should be doing what I wish... *sigh* ._.;

@deleted_6846210

Oops. Maybe my question was wrong. I want to have many biomes but only one with the flying islands.

I can't get the client mod to display the biome colors

EDIT: Now every time I log in my client crashes

@deleted_6846210

Is it possible to have only one biome like this http://www.kartwork.de/minecraft/f1.jpg ? I know how to do for whole world but I want only one biome with this.
