Same thing but every 4th, and then same thing but every 8th.

Then, I add to each value on the original map a half of the second, a quarter of the third map, and an eighth of th 4th map.

Then a place blocks accordingly

and i'm like 2 and cant comprehend 3d maps so im just doing this

Are you trying to make a terrain generator?

If you want anything that is not awful, you need to use noise generators - they basically do what you did, but they give smooth cloud or blob-like transitions between high and low points instead of random spikes.

I use a bunch of layered 2D maps, and some undersampled 3D maps for final details (a 3D chunk noisemap is 256 times as expensive as 2D, use it wisely!)

How much impact do you expect?

Nonfunctional.

It relies completely on FAWE to get anything remotely resembling real-time performance, without that it slows down to be as bad as the vanilla generator, worse once trees/structures are involved.

I also need to implement offline chunk edits to solve some weird bugs, and i cant do that with every mca editor broken.

oh gosh

A properly scaled Julia set combined with other maps will not - config file will allow mixing different generators for each type of map.

Oh, so reasonably cheap pseudo randomness. Nice.

It is a lot more expensive than most forms of noise, just more interesting. The generator is already far faster than the vanilla one, due to removing a lot of 3D noise.

I have been reading most of your posts regarding this new plugin and I must say it sounds quite promising. Are there any news about it? Stuff to do, numbers of headaches remaining till release date, $JokeAboutEWGSchematicsTrees, etc?

Lots of headaches i cant deal with now, mostly related to native code and compression and some complicated math. I need to optimize generator performance more (the goal is lighter than a vanilla server without sacrificing anything)

Sounds very interesting! "lighter than a vanilla server" is certainly a very healthy and nice goal. It clearly seems that it will not be ready in the near future, is such a shame to have to wait so much. I still wish you the best with those headaches and will keep track of this project progress :)

It is not so buggy anymore, quite close to being finished.

You've been working on it for a year, and you are probably one of the most talented Java developer's that I have talked with, I can't wait for the project to be released.

Wat.

Egads.

Lots of ones that suggest that link points to a nonexistent domain. Usually firefox, by process of elimination (everything else is a flaming pile of garbage).

Updated my domain earlier, https://www.aderm.me/i/151107f09.png - And ah.

I make an effort to try and ensure i am right before saying anything. For some reason it offends a lot of people.

I just wanted to say to you my response to you was a but uncalled for. I get mad when people tell me i cant when I have. Me and a friend have learned to work with spigot and java without any classes or any training. We are capeable. I also thought i might tell you people get mad at you when you are "right" about them doing something. All i had wanted was help and not to be told i need to learn java.
