Wurm Map Generator FX

[Brash_Endeavors 4698]

Are they not appearing ingame or not appearing in the mapping program?

Im placing biomes and trees and such but they dont seem to be appearing.  ANy idea why this might be?

 

Do you mean they're not appearing on the biome map, or in the world once the server starts up?

I can't see the picture, but if you have a reasonably high-resolution monitor, a 1024 map won't fill up the entire screen if you have it maximized. The view only uses one pixel per tile for display, so for example my display has a height of 1440; only 1024 pixels of that would be taken up by the map, the rest (other than buttons, etc) would be empty space.

Is it possible to actually generate biomes above 4000? I notice it is (finally) possible to generate mountains above that height but I cannot seem to get snow to generate or manually place at altitudes above ~4200

Figured it out

Cool, sorry I've been away but glad you got it figured out.

I seem to not get notifications as expected on this thread. If anyone needs assistance with this map editor, you can send an email to Brian@BSuttonDC.us

Sorry, I just now saw this.

 

I know of no reason why this shouldn't be possible. I'd double-check the biome settings/cutoff. If you are still having the problem, email me at Brian@BSuttonDC.us.

I don't see a download link for this. Just the documentation and installation instructions.

I had trouble with this, too.  If you go here:

http://bsuttondc.us/apps/wMapGen/docs/about/install.html

it looks like it can be done if you also install the Java Launcher, here:

http://bsuttondc.us/apps/launcher/docs/install/installation.html

 

I didn't want to install the launcher, and I couldn't figure out how to get this map generator without it. Not saying there isn't a way, just that it got too confusing for me so I quickly gave up.

Ah, hoop jumping. We all love to jump through hoops. 

Thanks again Batta. I might give this a shot. Not saying I'll follow through with all of it. Ima kind of a lazy one.

You're using java and this is Windows only. Shame. I am on Linux, and having this as a self-executing jar file would be wonderful as it seems all other map generators are now out of date. I may have to make my own or find another game.

Lots of us are still regularly making maps using the existing map generators, so they are definitely not all out of date.  Sometimes you have to go to the last page, or close to the last page, to see if there is an updated version with a new link. But this is the same for most of the mods, so nothing new with that.

I might be able to compile it for Linux. My focus was on Windows, since that seems to be what everyone was using. From past experience, I couldn't get past the Mac issues, but I've had success with Linux in the past. 

 

I'll look into it.

[Brian 10]

I have an experimental launcher for Linux accessible at: https://bsuttondc.us/apps/launcher/docs/install/installation.html (you may need to refresh the page).

I don't have a Linux machine, so it's anybody's guess if it will work. Theoretically, when you run it (if it runs) it should update the installer first, then you can go to https://bsuttondc.us/apps/wMapGen/docs/about/install.html to configure the map generator.

 

Please let me know if it works for you; email me at Brian@BSuttonDC.us if there are issues for us to work through.

Far from a legit issue,

But I noticed when I try to Generate Hight Map on 1638, it goes through the motions and then nothing happens lol.

I see my CPU working at about 35% for about a minute or two and then drops off but there is nothing in the viewer.
I tried hitting drop dirt just to see what would happen, after like 5 minutes CPU at 40-50%, nothing happened, lol.

I mean not that i need a map that big, but it appears to be either a bug or something wrong with my pc xD

I'm seeing it as well, so it's not your PC.
It's some kind of bug. I don't think I had tested that size; I know there were issues with the 8192 size that I dealt with, looks like I'll need to see if there's something I need to do with the 16k as well. Or just remove it if I can't get it to work properly.

Thanks for noticing.
