Im just building though. Considering ive been waiting two years for a genuine space map, it's hardly surprising this mod piqued my interest :p As for development, that requires more patience for rudeness and politics than what i got lol

I'lll keep posting shots of my base as it progresses (unless paramat asks me to move them) :-)
A space map?

With this mod the first step would be breaking up terrain generation into areas on the same plane seperated by barriers, which would each have their own parameters (sky, grass, water color, etc.) and like in the video, they'd be generated according to what pages you put together. Could be cool.

edit: I even found my old linking books (though they don't define realms/ages) and i figured out how to generate barriers (these test realms are 100^3) - now to apply different settings to each realm.

Well when it comes to space maps you can build on, you got few choices. Asteroid fields, other worlds, moons and planetoids. Otherwise you're talking about a void map set on permanent night.

No matter what I do, I can't get this to work.

The folder I installed it to.

1. Did you read that: http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=6450
2. If this does not help, could you post the error message?

I've renamed it so many times, including the bracketed name in the title, still, it's not yet worked.

That's the most recent attempt, with the bracketed name.

Could you post the lines just before that? (about 10 lines)

You need to get a more recent version of Minetest (at least 0.4.6, IRC)

You seem to be using an outdated version: update to 0.4.7 for the mod to run.

I didn't know it was released, as I'm still using the version that was available when I first used minetest. I'll download it and see where it goes.

Just remember, update often if a new one comes out. I should really create a mailing list containing updates. (Includes mod updates)

It seems to be working now~ Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Your worlds made in 0.4.5 should work in 0.4.7 provided you update the mods.

On a final question, what coordinates do I teleport to?

0,15000,0

Mauvebic: with my mod, there are barriers, and a few differences between realms: sea level, sea material (lava/water), tree size, frequency and materials.
EDIT: it is at y=20000

Yeah this mod needs 0.4.6 or later because the underground chunks and the realm atmosphere are generated by the new 'register ore' method.
Shire wrote:On a final question, what coordinates do I teleport to?
Yeah anywhere at y = 15000, then wait a couple minutes as chunks generate, then fly downwards to find the surface which will be between 14848 and 15008.

Qo'Nos realm (moonrealm 0.41 flavour)

* to run this alongside moonrealm, change YMIN and YMAX values (lines 12-13).

Qo'Nos looks good in those colours, interesting bit of landscape too.

I also made a Vulcan flavour, and working on an Andorian one.

Im beginning to think an API wouldn't be a bad idea :p Something that lets you easily define otherworldly realms, that figures out the height and spacing between realms depending on the number of realms. Is that something you'd be interested in doing yourself or should I go ahead?

I'm interested in the idea but busy with other stuff, and anyways you should go ahead since you have the inspiration.

I tried out this mod today and I have to say: I love it! The landscape is beautiful! This allows some more types of houses!

Out of curiosity, what's the difference between HL and Liquid Hydrocarbons?

Posted: Sat Jul 13, 2013 14:16
by paramat
webdesigner97, that's cool you like it.

mauvebic,
HL = Hydroponic Liquid
LHC = Liquid HydroCarbon, for example the lakes of Titan are liquid methane and ethane.
