these sort of caves (with cave realm) are quite rare. mostly I found the "normal" ones

Very good! Still lookin' for the summer --

This overhaul seems to have been a little precipitous.

[sorcerykid]

My new A* pathfinder algorithm for Minetest, is now in alpha testing. It handles 3D terrain mapping, converting all walkable surfaces into 2D "hint" maps, then compresses and caches those results into per-mapblock node-graphs for lightning fast lookups. The pathfinder supports numerous search options too; e.g. jumping, dropping, falling, ducking, cutting corners, opening doors, climbing ladders.

You can see in this example, the pathfinder produced a route from point A at elevation Y=2 through a room, down a step to elevation Y=1, then through another room and courtyard, and then back up a step to elevation Y=2 to reach B.

Processing time: 0.001 seconds

There's some super impressive shots on this page. I'm a little hesitant to post mine.

Interesting. Is this in the core engine? Or in lua? or an external utility?

[sorcerykid]

This actually has no relationship to the core pathfinder. It's a WIP mod that I developed for use with mobs and NPCs. This new pathfinder will also integrate with my Avatars mod (which is an upcoming AI framework for Minetest that aims to support lifelike sensory-based decision making systems).

This overhaul seems to have been a little precipitous.

It still is an overhaul, the current algorithm generates the rooms within one big cuboid.

By extending it with staircases, hallways, some fixed door positions, windows, lighting, a roof, more nodes, patterns, and more, it probably could generate neat looking houses.

I guess Minetest can run on a toaster after all.

Your construction looks very nicely. You achieved quite professional effect especially given these difficult curved shapes of Chinese-style architecture. Maybe some larger project in the future? If surroundings were more natural and well chosen, the same building would look yet much more pleasurably.

I'd like to release the tp this year as soon as I've completed plant mods.

Wow, we just reached a new milestone on JT2. Over 5000 player sessions Wednesday, only minutes before the daily restart.

Yet through all the chaos of 60+ players (most noobs at spawn), average lag remained rocksteady at 0.1 seconds.

Congrats to Damrell836 on bringing us up to 5000! That's definitely a new record for us :D

That's quite impressive. I'm still looking for a way for teaching mobs how to handle ladder-like nodes (climbing up and down). Eventually, builder-NPC like in towntest ought to complete the following:

Though perhaps there's not so much pathfinding involved. Once the mob has arrived at its workplace, it might just look for the two special nodes it's going to be responsible for - and move into their vicinity, calling a function inside the node (scaffolding or dig-here-indicator), with the node doing the rest. Occasional trips to the build chest might improve immersion.

Today comes truly historic moment. I am proud to announce that the work on Empire Voxel Building is nearing its glorious culmination and I hope that if no catastrophic event prevents it, the map will be downloadable in a few weeks time.

The structure is 1330 nodes high. I've set a new standard of architectural voxel models making it in a scale 1 node = 1 foot which requires much more attention to details and allows more of them to be included in the creation, making its look much richer and aesthetically refined.

This is probably the largest model of a single, distinctive real building ever created in open-world voxel games.

I think that shaders should add brightness to the textures.
brighter (1.1):


default (1.0), probably too dark:


probably too bright (1.3):


Note that it's bright day light and show should be very bright
