Mapgen and special things?

[Krock]

Hello,

I wondered if there are some mods or default-functions to make:

1) Very high and big moutains (> 100m)
2) Natural lakes abrove 0m
3) Multiple *platforms* to build on in one world, like one at 20000m, 0m, -20000m and each has a deep underground. They also shouldn't throw shadows "down", so the -20000m "world" would have light too.

Haven't found anything to this - yet.
Help!

1) Very high and big moutains (> 100m)

As Hybrid Dog already mentioned, the mount meru mod does that. Such a mountain can be found on the Landrush server.

2) Natural lakes abrove 0m

I don't know of any mod that does that yet. Perhaps one that creates rivers?

3) Multiple *platforms* to build on in one world, like one at 20000m, 0m, -20000m and each has a deep underground. They also shouldn't throw shadows "down", so the -20000m "world" would have light too.

Afaik that's in development for the main game/engine.

If you're looking for terrain modifications, just take a look at all topics by paramat. He has written lots of mods that do amazing things to terrain!

Okay thank you, both.
I'll try out some mods and maybe I've found a new mod idea :)

The mapgensettings I use.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

mgv6_np_terrain_base                 = -4,        25,                (500, 500, 500),        82341,        5,        0.6
mgv6_np_terrain_higher                 = 10,        64,                (750, 750, 750),        85039,        8,        0.6
mgv6_np_steepness                         = 0.85,        0.2,        (50, 50, 50),                -932,        5,        0.7


Mountains up to ~100.

You could also search for LandUp on the forum. That was a very good mod. Someone needs to rewrite it with the LuaVM.

That someone is me =)
That was my first original mod almost a year ago and i've improved so much since then, it needs rewriting to use a new method that does not require pre-generation of upper chunks.
