repeatable seg fault if you do a singlenode, forget to configure the mod, and fall a bit

the biggest problem would be with things like wallmount and metadata (same problem as with mapgen) - you could write them down but to recreate them you have to do it by individual nodes anyway as far as i can figure out

shupa mapgen is only a few hundred milliseconds for a block of nodes because i am using a pre-defined map, but using a pre-defined map is where the size limit comes in.

thank you!

still pulling my hair out over mt's water - terrain and caves look good though

high desert

wouldn't it also suffer from the "must be in memory at the start of the game" problem that i had with doing an overhead terrain map? - i finally worked out how to make a great overhead terrain map on-the-fly, but there is just no way to push it to the client

yeah, you've obviously got something wrong somewhere maybe check the version of opengl? - it usually says at the top also r for range needs to be off my old asus netbook (Asus EeePC 1005HA Seashell) has only one core processor (intel atom N270 32bit single-core), a whopping 1Gb of memory, and a whac...

NOPE frigging static error still exists - and yet again the -82,2,-28 shows up as the place where the error is happening, but i think i am very far away from block (not node but block of nodes) -82,-28, in fact there is nothing in block x=-82 z=-28 but stone as far as i know 100% repeatability - sim...

dunno what the op needed the 1.3 for, but my old asus netbook has some weird intel graphics adapter that only has opengl 1.4 support - it works ok though if you turn off the smooth lighting, shaders and particles

i have a vertical gen plan that is hard coded with a nether-like void, caves, etc, what i'm banging up against now is the biomes/areas/terrain - as we saw in fm (freeminer) it is weird to have a glacier next to a normal desert, but if that desert was an arid snowy "desert" like the peruvian andes, t...

toolchain fail #123423156797 - why are the fails always nicer than the product - flowing water too http://i.imgur.com/NudXTd1.png yet more water problems waiting to fry my computer http://i.imgur.com/hO2Jvoe.png adding another area called "cliffs" because of #1 and need to redo the whole water thing...

yeah mine are like that - any mapgen mod will only create new stuff when you get near an undefined chunk - in mine there is a message "generating [whatever] to [whatever]" but in others mapgen mods it may not have a message

freeminer forum account creation says "Sorry, you must wait longer to create an account." wtf?

meh i can read the fm (freeminer) forum and that is all i needed

dirt , sand and gravel will fall off the edges (try to build something ;) ) why this? ewwww! - nope - i love building sand houses because of the falling-sand difficulty, and what about my beautiful sand cliffs??? once disturbed, i have to wait for it to stop? and now dirt is a falling node too? sli...

weird - half of that is in shupa! - great minds think alike - i will check out your code (i assume it is open source?) for some things like freeze and melt in a bit my biomes are y-based (height), not z-based (north/south), and i added a few things i called areas besides biomes like hilly areas, mou...

11.10 is no longer supported...

i think superos is still 11.10 and is still supported - i looked at it once for something but didn't use it because it was old

but if you have superos you can easily complie it - instructions are in the readme that nobody reads

I guess this is the error

12:07:43: ERROR[EmergeThread0]: ERROR: An unhandled exception occurred: LuaError: not enough memory

nope, not a mod issue - i was just one of those weird odd memory things because it is not repeatable (yay) - maybe firefox? - working fine now

thanks anyway

0.4.8 - first FPS=0 and out of memory error - that never happenned in in 0.4.7 with the same code the world is gigantic, and i was doing one of my huge lua world mapgens, then after a string of mapgens as long as your arm, i got 0 fps for a while and then it threw out of memory same computer, r was ...

sweet,thanks!
i choose -2500 to 2500
5000 wide is a big map for singleplayer
and the north to south constant wind now works so we can have sails and sailing ships to help get around faster
not assasins creed black flag but basically like that - with more sail to go faster, etc
thanks again

shupa mod mapgen works (yay) but how big should i make it?

there is a tradeoff with size versus pretty versus detail

a happy thanksgiving to those in the usa - i still do not understand having a feast to celebrate a massacre, but that is the usa!

shouldn't be too hard to make a spawn point for players - hardest part would be getting the height right, and if you had a spawn egg placed it would give you the height

i use the last H marker in bubblegumGPS and get the height from that - if there is no H marker it uses the default

a) a ragequit? - i always miss the fun since i am antisocial
b) i love the forum attachments - delete ability of uploaded errors would be nice (timed? 5 minutes?)
c) i still can't use github because i still do not understand it - oh how i have tried to use it!

i made one ages ago that used stored vectors in a table and had travelling nodes for projectiles, but projectiles just get IGNOREd (as in they hit an unloaded chunk) :see whut i did there?: lololol then there was the splat/bulletholes for where the bullet hit - has to be a friggin wallmount and i di...

i did that only to avoid the static error (and mob duplication) associated with luasao entities in 0.4.7 the entities are back now that we are on 0.4.8 and although my tester mod is still a wip, they are looking really amazing! moving things in minetest really should be luasao entities as that is wh...

is it a little bit faster response? it seems that way to me anyway, great job! it compiles fine on linux mint 15 and supports my crazy mods so i am very happy if the static error and entity duplication has really been eliminated then i can use entities (oh my!) and that opens up a very big can of aw...

my jetpack stopped working some months ago mine works great, well, dangerously, but great i made it like a real jetpack, with fuel and everything, so to go up you add thrust and of course to go down you stop the thrust - hopefully before you hit the ground you catch it with the thrust and settle ge...

Set_lighting sets lighting in the voxelmanip exactly to the light you specify, does not calculate. and The nolight flag is a mapgen parameter that disables all lighting computations, which is very helpful for when you're doing a total mapgen replacement in lua. more incredibly useful data, thanks! ...

it is probably my own syntax errors rather than the board syntax lol anyway, the wingsuit version of the mod is up at https://forum.minetest.net/misc.php?action=pun_attachment&item=71&download=1 just overwrite the old mod to get the safer wingsuit along with the jetpack it just struck me that i neve...

so how much of the -30000 to 30000 mapgen do you really use?
