At long last, my first major update to Regions Unexplored is out! This update features two new biomes, improvements in dozens of others, additions to vanilla biomes, a new mob, and so much more! It's been a huge undertaking, but it's finally complete. Happy travels!

@eshxtwit @silentwisperer_ Carpets are normal blocks, Cushions are entities.

[Apollo @worldgen_dev]

@JuneLUAA @CYKLOPPS_Gaming It's marked as fixed for the next snapshot on the bug tracker

@Kitawa_ @MintRefresh_MC @BeetleChosen Cave air wasn't added until long after Notch was gone, it was added in 1.13.

@harristic_ It works a lot better when the biomes are similar to each other. Rivers are used as a border between the two birch forests, the two old growth taiga, and sunflower plains/flower forest.

[Apollo @worldgen_dev]

After almost 5 years since 1.18 came out, I think it's time for the biome layout to get some structural changes to reduce microbiomes.

It wasn't *that* bad originally, but the generation of Cherry Groves, Pale Gardens, Sulfur Caves, and now Dappled Forests is reaching a point.

@MintRefresh_MC @themichaeltbh The unused icons were confirmed wayyy back to just be for when they were testing waypoint styles.

@yungnickyoung One page per project is much cleaner rather than splitting them up by loader imo (it's more consistent with the Modrinth pages too)

@gegybeans @NovaWostra 3. The processor list has a 'rule' processor with a 'location_predicate' that is anything except 'always_true'.

If all three are met, the logspam happens. Looking at the code, I'm not even sure it's fixable, but I'll certainly make a bug report for it.

[Apollo @worldgen_dev]

@gegybeans @NovaWostra 2. The processor list the piece uses has a 'capped' processor. The contents of it are irrelevant.

@notoriouscraka @TsukiyumiArt Lithosphere has abysmal loading speeds + doesn't really work unless you have particularly high render distances. Vanilla terrain shaping is built to still be varied and interesting but also work on render distances lower than 32.

@RafaeldeVascon1 @leezadatedemais This is entirely false: the game creates and uses lower resolution textures for far away blocks. This is what the "mipmapping" setting is for.

[Apollo @worldgen_dev]

@leezadatedemais They do not: When a texture is smaller on the screen, the game uses a lower resolution texture. This is what the "mipmap" setting is for.

When you zoom in with a spyglass, the blocks suddenly get bigger on the screen, and the normal texture is used.

@theocloudss Modrinth's gone out of their way to be neutral on AI usage, and in fact use vibe coding quite a bit in the development of their own site/related ventures.

@nonbatnary I obliterated the Pumpkin Fields biome entirely and just put rare patches into the Autumnal Maple Forest.
