This is a mostly frozen copy of the Minetest forums through 2017. If you know phpBB3 and would like to host any G-rated forum here, you can email: me@minetest.org If the email doesn't work, find out who's taken over Final Minetest from OldCoder and email them to get write access or an admin account.
I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.
Whether the temperature is high or low, regardless of cold winds blow,
away we go like Edgar Allan Poe, on now with the show. BTW rhymes are welcome.

Re: Map will not generate
Hello. (I see that you are a new member, welcome to Minetest!)
I think I may know a fix to this problem. I somewhat recreated the problem, and this worked, so it's worth a shot at least.
Close out of Minetest. Locate the configuration file for Minetest. The file is called minetest.conf (not minetest.conf.example). The file should be in your Minetest folder. If you downloaded the game, it may be in your Downloads. Open minetest.conf in a text editor. If you receive a "search for application" dialog, choose select application or "Open With". Find Notepad, Leafpad, gedit, Text Editor, or TextEdit, use the first one you see in the list. At the end of the file, put an enter and then this exactly:
map_generation_limit = 31000
Then save, start Minetest, and create a new world. If all is well, the world will generate. Good Luck, and welcome to the forums!
