Honestly, I think I like my flat caves the best. They may not be realistic, and they don't provide vertical access, but they're sure easier to deal with.

I am just playing with Blender, and made this for fun:
Now I have to make special textures for it, but it shouldn't be too hard :D (please note I know it is far from perfect)!

Also, I would LOVE shadows like this in-game. I hope to see this implemented in the future.
FYI I made that in Blender, just as an example. Please don't ask for a non-existent download for a non-existent shader.

@ Wuzzy: wonderful images, great gallery. I guess it's mostly MC2 (except Hades). I really like the ambience of your game.

This makes me think that a mod which converts markdown to a formspec could be a good idea, markdown is well-known and even readable as source after all.
I'd considered few different markup standards, including HTML and markdown. However, markdown would not suffice since formspecs do not support headings, subheadings, bold text, italic text, or underlined text which are integral to markdown. Likewise, the specification does not account whatsoever for colored text, bordered text, tab stops, pagination, paragraph spacing, etc.
HTML seemed like a better candidate, but it would have required a far more sophisticated parser, which was overkill for basic layout and formatting of signs. BBCode was a happy medium, and mostly inspired the Bedrock Markup Language syntax, albeit with simpler tags tailored for Minetest. Currently, the entire parser and renderer is a mere 270 lines, so it benefits from being economical and extensible.
Here's an example of a few signs from the JT2 server. I imagine it would be difficult to recreate these with just markdown alone.

"Reflexion Hill" from "Raging Earth" tweaking of Valleys.
The name of this tweaking stems from the fact that its terrain is probably the most dangerous and treacherous one I've encountered so far. I lost several in-game characters because of sudden unexpected downcasts, hidden pits and precipices emerging from behind dense vegetation. Its mountains, albeit usually well below 1000 nodes high are hardly passable, and long stretches of calm and even flatlands and mild slopes put player's vigilance to sleep. Definitely an option for hardcore explorers only. No "floating rocks" makes the overall ambience very immersive and the landscapes are believable with considerably reduced "chunkiness" of rocky features.

Can you post the tweaks somewhere?

This is 'work in progress', however at this stage I can assume that I've probably made the best what I could, so yes, the tweaking is posted here.
The terrain in its lower parts looks awesome, the hills are perfect as shown in screenshots below; however mountains are still a little too 'smooth' and need some noise. As far as I figured out Valleys mg probably doesn't feature 'noise' parameter for terrain, so I think the only way to improve the landscapes and make them look more realistic is by adding more micro-caves to 'scrape' mountain slopes.

An example of a montainous terrain in "Raging Earth". Here you can see why it's so challenging and also you can recognize the somewhat unnatural smoothness of the slopes which however can be easily improved by adding noise.

LOL! That's crazy talamh. As they always say, it's important to have a good house on your shoulders :P
It doesn't seem possible that just test came back online almost exactly two years ago. Here's a screencap from April 17, 2017 at 2:30am. I was one of the first players to log in, right after maikerumine announced the relaunch. Gotta love lag's "welcome" message!
This is spawn as it was in the spring of 2017:
And this is spawn (aka Tring Square) as of yesterday:
To commemorate the anniversary, I completed construction of a city hall on the site where the first picture was taken. It's the darkly clad International style skyscraper on the far right (an homage to Daley Plaza in Chicago), which I thought was fitting for the minimalist nature of just test server :)
Fun fact: Despite its simple appearance, the City Hall was a very costly project -- requiring over 1200 bones, due to the glass for the curtain wall as well the tiled flooring of the lobby.

An example of typical terrain in "Raging Earth" - this screenshot actually shows calm, rolling hills and the "raging" features (which are the characteristic rocky culminations) can be seen only in the far background.
@Hugues Ross: great, tasty and very nice eye-candy and a very aesthetically pleasing shot.

When Minetest crosses boundary between trivial distraction and art sometimes nice things happen.
The first one was taken in MT 5. It's graphic capabilities are well better than those of previous versions. TP Dokucraft, not edited.
This one is edited (tp Sunny, MT 4.16).
