[A19e Nitrogen - UNSTABLE]

Uploaded a fixed Version 0.342 (fixing the array-exception that might occur)

 

------------

 

ALSO included: , a command-line tool called BiomeFixer

 

a simple tool to load biomes.png images for 7DtD and fix any misaligned colors

The output file will have a different name on default, so you need to rename it afterwards.

 

You can also set the color that the image should have on misaligned pixels (Forest, Desert etc)

 

-> makes it less "risky" to have misaligned colors in the biomes.png if you edit it yourself.

(so you dont need to have the game load it, and check the debug log)

You could set the default to burned forest to see miscolored pixels quicker then, or clean up an image with a few errors in it.

 

-----------

 

Edit:

I can see about the traders distribution to keep some distance.

Best is to not have the map too crowded. But I can see about generating them before towns, so they might end up within towns, but not compete for the remaining space around one area.

 

If I don't specify a biome type to test, will it automatically attempt to fix all biome types? Or does it do that regardless whether or not I specify a biome type? Thanks for this fixer!

I will add in a tool later, that "cleans up" biomes.png to set wrong colored pixels to a working default value.

7DtD is very picky about the right color values when loading in the biomes.png (also the alpha value)

 

Here are the internal values used in NitroGen for reference.

 

public static final int BIOME_COL_FOREST=0xFF004000;

public static final int BIOME_COL_SNOW=0xFFFFFFFF;

public static final int BIOME_COL_DESERT=0xFFFFE477;

public static final int BIOME_COL_BURNED_FOREST=0xffba00ff;

public static final int BIOME_COL_WASTELAND=0xffffa800;

 

Thanks! That would be great!

I have a different problem... I love the tool, but not the tiny specs of burnt forest and wasteland. I have tried to hand paint the biomes to my liking in Photoshop CS5 using the hex biome colors out of the biomes.xml file, but every time I do that, I get unknown biome color errors when generating the map to play on my server. Anybody have any suggestions?

Damocles

 

Question .. I just tried to generate 1 of my 12288 maps on the new version A 0.341 and I got a message saying: ( Array Index out of range ) .. a first for that .. is the new build limited on size.

 

I got that too, but once I dropped the biome sizes in the config file down from 0.24 to 0.12, it generated the map.

you're welcome

Damn, what a great idea, never even thought of that!

 

So simple and worked great, got the new map working with ease

 

Outstanding, thanks

 

 

You're welcome!

The easiest way I've found is to create a "dummy world" using whatever seed and game name you want. Once it's done, delete everything out of the "dummy world" folder that was created, then replace it with your Nitrogen world files and restart the server using the seed and game name you used to create the "dummy world". It will then look in that folder and start the game with your NitroGen map of choice.

Any way to include a seed name output or something that will work for dedicated servers? I've tried following the instructions on page 1, but it just doesn't work for me. I don't know if it is something to do with gameservers.com or what...

[A19e Nitrogen - UNSTABLE]

Thanks! I'll try that!

[A19e Nitrogen - UNSTABLE]

ok noob question...

 

If I generate a random world using the Random Gen previewer in the Editing Tools section of the game, and say I type in "MyRandomWorld" as the seed, it may generate a world named "South Pixidu Valley", and if I put "MyRandomWorld" as the seed name in my serverconfig.xml then I will use the "South Pixidu Valley" map that was generated in the Editing Tools.

 

So.... where do I find whatever the seed name is to generate worlds using NitroGen so that I can put it in my serverconfig.xml and use that map on my dedicated server?

Hi , if you use the command shell anyway, use the “cd” command to navigate to the installation directory. Else java does not know where the jar file is.

 

It works now. I had to install the 64 bit version of Java. Thanks for the tool!

Try to use the bat file. It might have run out of memory with the default. You can also increase heap memory by changing the parameters in the bat file.

 

I'm pretty sure I have everything setup correctly, but I'm only getting these errors. Thanks for the help in advance.

[A19e Nitrogen - UNSTABLE]

Just using default settings, have latest Java installed jre1.8.0_211

All that happens is this:

 

running generation thread

... running terrain generation ...

 

Then just sticks there.

Same download link as the old. You might have to check the downloadfolder for the newest download.

 

Ok I'm seeing file dates from 10 & 13 Apr 2019 in the zip, but the readme says v0.121. That's what threw me off. Thanks!

[A19e Nitrogen - UNSTABLE]

I can only find NitroGen (v0.121 alpha) download. Where can I get the latest version? Thanks.
