Re: Bukkit Plugin: WGen Noise and Smoothing

also, since you like terrain generation you may want to look into spout, custom biomes, blocks, map heights, and lots of fun things like that :D

Re: Bukkit Plugin: WGen Noise and Smoothing

Also do you know how to calculate the biome from the humidity and temperature? I've decided to use those values as a solution to biome smoothing :D

Re: Bukkit Plugin: WGen Noise and Smoothing

Re: Bukkit Plugin: WGen Noise and Smoothing

Actually its not ok >.>
after experimenting with the noise generator (simplex) i found out that it doesn't generate a number between -1 and 1 like you said in your video, because i got values of 1.3627 and such. do you know why?

Re: Bukkit Plugin: WGen Noise and Smoothing

To be honest i just realized that myself too xD
After telling me to look at the minecraft code i saw a striking familiarity to your plugin skylands plus :P
Notch must be a genius to understand that xD
Is there anything you can tell me about smoothing terrain generation between biomes maybe? :D

Re: Bukkit Plugin: WGen Noise and Smoothing

I saw your video, it was really helpful :D its just that is wasn't entirely clear to me about how to put it together in order to form more complex/natural terrain gen such as found in minecraft.

Are there going to be ...
