I tried to load some old biome (Was just interested in some settings i did there…), some loaded when i placed it in Steams Boundless-map, but most of them crashed the wb.
Is it possible to get a copy of the old version, just for checking purpose?
(I should have done a copy of it before i updated…)
Edit: I cant save/load to my library hd…It force me to save in default map, any way to change that?
Edit 2: Same when try to open a image to image-filter, have to copy them to default steam/boundless map.
Edit 3: I read it above, sorry for that…
I’m currently messing around with the composable functions. Pretty snazzy!
Here’s a dunes heightmap:
It exposes a “Dune Spacing” slider, which you can use to choose how frequently dunes appear in the overall heightmap. Larger values means fewer dunes, and more rolling sand in between them.
Works best when the heightmap has a range of about 15 blocks.
So one thing I’m currently wondering about is how to package up entire worlds (which probably consist of several configs & assets) for other people to play around with
The One True config folder works great for the library of common functions (and any official worlds), but less so for less frequently shared configs, I think.
Another potential (good) problem is that there will likely be libraries of nodes floating around (not distributed with Boundless). Everything boils down to a package management problem, it seems…
One approach might be to have a tool that can merge config directories (e.g. you distribute all the files relevant to your world, in the same structure as worldbuilder/config ). You’d also want another tool that can extract a world from the shared config (and, ideally, follow file references, and be aware of which files are built in). Dependencies would probably also be merged in a similar fashion.
Another approach might be something akin to search paths; maybe exposed via the world builder UI as a “workspace”. You create a workspace that holds all the files unique to your world (or worlds), and the world builder does search-path style lookups for any linked resource, so you can also make use of the official things.
The workspace approach has some interesting consequences. It would let you override built in functions by shadowing them, which could be handy (but also might be confusing for the same reason). Dependencies could just be an earlier search path, too.
Oh, yeah, thanks! Still having some trouble however, but I do t think it’s with the soft wear. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to actually get the world I’m making to actually show up on the world veiw. I look, and it’s just a flat red play of nothing.
Are you running worldbuilder local? Steam cant handle both at once.
When you started wb-server localy, select builder-universe in the go to another world menu.
Think there is some better explanation in the modding category.
