[Game] Lord Of The Rings [Lord-of-the-Test] [1.1.0] [23/12]

https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7656 u can use this mapgen

Thanks for the suggestion but, i am pretty much aware of that. In the past few days i tried to understand different mapgen mods (paramat mods, ethereal, nore mod) and used them to see the result. I prefer paramat paragen v7 the best because the biomes are separated well, in Ethereal mod, the fiery biome can just generate in the grassy biome and well i do not understand how to make the models of the trees in the ethereal mod. You can pretty much expect a mapgen update (i already experimented with paragenv7 mod, the result i want come out is pretty well except the Shire may be removed (or maybe if i am to generate structures just random hobbit holes in the grassland, and not a whole realm) because i am having some rarity problems, and probably no structures currently except the something for the dwarf to roam abt underground) with some added stuff (want to keep a secret now) in abt few weeks (most being 2 weeks, and least being 1 week) as my examinations are coming soon. Btw i updated the fix for lottfarming not working, but the version is still the same, just a tiny fix.

In the first post you said you want help, is that still the case? I am interested in making a LOTR modpack/gamemode, and could help if you want... If you do want me to help, PM me.

i do not understand how to make the models of the trees in the ethereal mod

They're all schematics. You can create schematics by building them in the world and saving them with a WorldEdit command:

//mtschemcreate <file>

Save the current WorldEdit region using the Minetest Schematic format to "(world folder)/schems/<file>.mts".

or maybe if i am to generate structures just random hobbit holes in the grassland, and not a whole realm

If you want to build hobbit holes, you ought to consult AspireMint. He has started a very nice looking hobbit hole on the Landrush server.

Wow. This is amazing.

PS, the title should be:

Working on mapgen by doing modification of paramat paragen v7, just a few screenshots to amaze you guys on what's coming up.

Wow cool!

Here are some screenshots of the next version, that will, hopefully, be released on Saturday!






The two main things that have been added are a new mapgen system, based on Paramat's paragenV7, and more weapons, along with some smaller changes, for example, transparent ice!

[Novacain]

btw, I'm pretty sure paramat is gonna majorly revamp his paragen. right now it is a bit slow.

*o* Lord of the Test *o8

[paramat]

Yeah paragenv7 is still in it's pre-lua-voxel-manipulator version, it will be twice as fast if converted but im not sure if or when i'll do that, despite that is is fairly quick at roughly 6 seconds per chunk.

[paramat]

You might like to develop your mapgen from noise23 mod, that is partly it's purpose, it is a simple lua-voxel-manipulator framework that generates biomes, it runs fast if you keep it fairly simple. The stabililty and noise23 mods are tutorial mods to help people learn LVM 3D noise mapgen.

[AMMOnym]

Different mobs are spawned at different biomes ??

[paramat]

fishyWET, ... perhaps watershed would be good for you to edit ... it has a large scale (4km) network of fantasy-like mountain ranges, is fast, has a simpler 1 noise biome selection that is easier to modify to your own biomes, and has my latest methods which are much improved since paragenv7.
EDIT ... er except it has mountain ranges independant of biomes, so it's not possible to have each area encircled by mountains to be a particular biome and therefore a particular kingdom of middle earth.

That will be in the update!

Thanks for your help Paramat!

Update

List of Changes here: Changelog
Some Screenshots abt the latest release is added to the first post.
Some other changes:

• The Lord of the Test modpack is now developed into both a game and a modpack so there are two separate downloads

• Wiki is set up. Link in main topic.

• Project is set up in github

NOTE: Mapgen only works well in v7 for modpack, but in the game, v7 mapgen is automatically selected even when you select v6, so no worries abt using what mapgen in game, but make sure you select mapgen v7 for modpack.

[AMMOnym]

Yupíííííí update AWESOME. Is it for mapgen v7 or v6 ?

When i tried craft wooden dagger i got training dagger but when i tried craft stone dagger i got training dagger too. It is wrong ?

Do you have any error in debug.txt? Can you post it here?
And put the " LOTT " folder in your games folder instead of the " Lord-of-the-Test-0.1.2-game ", it should work.
[hint]And yup, armor is already in development stage.[/hint]

Seems something is wrong with the game, not sure why. I will work on it and release a fix for that by latest, the day after tomr.
Edit: Found the mistake, will change it.

Bugfix Version 0.1.2.1
Changelog

• Fixed Stone Dagger crafting recipe
• Fixed Gamemode not working

Thanks to AMMOnym for reporting the bugs

[Topywo]

As a game, all the necessary mods are present and working. It's user friendly.

As a modpack, you'll need to anticipate when the dependencies break your mod(s). But you'll have the latest 'state of the art' and looking at the dependencies, they're not mods that change often.

Since people playing this probably want to play a LOTR-like world, I would say game.

[AMMOnym]

For what can i use Geodes crystal or limestone please ?
