Inspired by Pilzadam's Nether mod, I've whipped together a mod which brings Hell into Minetest. This is built off HeroOfTheWinds' Caverealms with parts of Nether included.
Features:
Massive caves of netherrack from -20000 to -30000
A sea of lava from -25000 to -30000
The sky turns red when you enter Hell
To create a hell portal, make some kind of closed shape using obsidian and place a torch in it

hello, am program. do language in rust. make computer do. okay i go now.
Nice mod!
I would be nice if special and dangerous mobs would spawn in the hell.
I'm not sure why the the Nether is composed of netherrack and the Hell is composed of netherrack, too ( and not hellrack ).

Looks really cool!, and the red sky is a nice touch
edit: I can't find anything but normal stone, is this just because the caves really are massive?
Also I'm getting a lot of these errors:
"ERROR[Main]: Current Lua memory usage: 75 MB"

Are you using the latest git or daily ppa?
Also: I've updated it with improved performance. Now mapblocks generate in at around 185 milliseconds.

Do you want to get rid of those huge floating volumes of lava? I think those are created by large lava caves overgenerating into previously generated chunks. The mapgen of the Nether mod has a trick to remove those.

Thanks for the tip, Paramat. I can't seem to spawn in other nodes without adding 200+ milliseconds to chunk generation. Kind of stumped as of right now on how to do this efficiently!

In the nether mapgen you can see that the volume processed is the 80^3 mapchunk plus a 1 mapblock-deep (16 nodes) shell around it. This is because large caves generate out beyond a mapchunk border by up to 16 nodes and can place lava or water in this 'shell'. The shell has more volume than the mapchunk itself, so generation time will be significantly higher.
However you don't need to generate your terrain outside the mapchunk, or calculate noise values outside it. All that needs doing outside is removing lava and water if present. The nether mapgen shows how to do this.
