14:33 TomTom         whats the "best" mapgen vor mineclone2 or voxelgarden? the last one i used (can't remember if v6/7) produced very strange mountains which were geologically nearly impossible and ridiculous high. similar to these islands in thailand/bali but scaled up
14:40 TomTom         and not to mention floating islands...
14:47 TomTom         mineclone2 produces also an incredible amount of animals
14:50 kurtzmusch     >geologically impossible
14:50 kurtzmusch     >similar to those in real life
14:51 kurtzmusch     you can tweak the mapgen parameters, sometimes the mod will overwrite it so you have to tweak it in the mod
14:52 kurtzmusch     im not familiar with mineclone or vexelgarden though
15:52 codic          Is there instalable mapgens in MT?
16:01 kurtzmusch     lua mapgens yes
16:01 kurtzmusch     c++ mapgens i think needs recompiling of the engine
16:01 kurtzmusch     not sure though
16:05 kurtzmusch     !mod mapgen
18:47 kurtzmusch     is it possible to ask the engine to recalculate lighting without using a vmanip?
18:48 kurtzmusch     fix_lighting seems to do something diferent than vm:calc_lighting
18:49 BuckarooBanzai kurtzmusch: why would you need that?
18:51 kurtzmusch     to fix lighting/shadorws
18:52 BuckarooBanzai yeah, i know :) i'm curious why the vmanip-way is not working for you...
18:52 Krock          Delete the mapblock
18:53 Krock          else I don't know of any option
18:53 BuckarooBanzai o/ Krock
18:53 Krock          unless you want to mass-replace air with mese glow nodes stuff and back
18:53 Krock          hi BuckarooBanzai
18:54 BuckarooBanzai Krock: thx for https://github.com/minetest-mods/lightning/pull/14 that was quick.. :)
18:54 Krock          well yes
18:54 Krock          trivial changes
18:54 kurtzmusch     vmanip will work, but its slow
18:54 kurtzmusch     just querying the vmanip takes 100ms
18:55 kurtzmusch     then calc light another 50 or 100
18:55 kurtzmusch     i thought i could do a call so the engine would do it internally
18:55 Krock          vmanip calls to the engine manually
18:55 Krock          *internally
18:56 Krock          light calculations just happen to be expensive - either bad implementation or just complex overall
18:57 kurtzmusch     huum, guess ill have to do more testing then
