Re: Minetestmapper rewritten into C++
That's perfectly normal, the white gaps happen in places where the world was not generated yet. Since the world is only generated when a player walks near the area this happens often. Also there is a colors.txt that comes with minetestmapper, VanessaE's colors file is useful only if you have mods i...

Re: Minetestmapper rewritten into C++
And the second question. I, however, downloaded colors.txt file from the URL mentioned in wiki [ http://wiki.minetest.net/Minetestmapper ]. By the way, that URL is wrong. That URL is http://digitalaudioconcepts.com/vanessa/hobbies/minetest/colors.txt but correct is http://daconcepts.com/vanessa/hobb...

Re: Minetestmapper rewritten into C++
Thank you very much! I just compiled the program. But I still have one little question. I tried to test the example from wiki [ http://wiki.minetest.net/Minetestmapper ]. minetestmapper --geometry -10000:-10000+20000+20000 --drawscale -i ~/.minetest/worlds/my_world/ -o my_world.png And the output i...

Re: Post your mapgen questions here (modding or engine)
By the way, there are different terrain generators like v5, v6, v7, valleys, so on. And what about dungeon/catacomb/cave generators? If there are caves then there must be algorithms for that. Do you develop them?

Re: Minetestmapper rewritten into C++
I can't install minetestmapper from AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/minetestmapper-git/ I start the process with yaourt -S minetestmapper-git Then some dependencies are suggested to install from repo first: gperftools , libuv , snappy , cmake , gd , leveldb . All of this seems to be installe...

Re: Post your mapgen questions here (modding or engine)
I generated many worlds to choose what I like most (among suggested and what is not so realistic).
And оbserving nature I found BRICKWORK at the bottom of the sea! It is artificial thing!
World is freshly generated. Is that possible?

Re: Post your mapgen questions here (modding or engine)
What mapgen is more realistic? I tried all of them. One makes flat desert with no trees nearby (boring), another -- rocks floating in the sky (wtf?), third -- puts me in the middle of the jungle that are near snowy hills(!), and so on. What makes more realistic landcape? For example, quite big islan...

Blocks of soil don't count as water,
it doesn't work like irrigation in civ-games.
Thank you. All plants grew up.

Re: [solved] wheat doesn't grow
Sorry, I am newbie in Minetest game. I play in singleplayer mode.
I collected some wheat seeds and plant them but not all of them grow. There is nothing to shadow plants.
Here is my screenshot.
