Generate Dimension from map

[Microcellule]

Well, sorry  to disturb you guys , but I really need some help !

 

I want to know if it is possible to create a dimension  from a map. Actually, i created my first dimension only with Three layer of block, and structure are built with events.

It's working, but pc work Hard to do this job (Freeze time before the strucutre spawn... It's normal too, my structures are verry massive).

So , to prevent the player loading lots of stuff and freeze, i'm asking you if it is possible to generate a Dimension from a custom created map.

 

Oh yes , my Dimension will be the same in any world. It 's a special dimension so Only One map is needed.

 

I hope you will understand what i have in mind ...^^'

 

So , i already say "Thank you" for your future answers

Yes, it's possible. But it's a lot of work and planning. I can't tell you how, though. I'd probably start with where your map is, and in what format, and how to read it, then setting up a dimension and biome, then using your decoded map info, build some terrain and decoration.

Ow ok

 

I though that there were a trick , for example, to set the folder where the map is.

Beceause, when a dimension is created, a map is created. So there is no "generation lag" after that

 

Need to work on this way  , but thank for your answer

You may run into computer permission problems, but you may be able to distribute the world in the mod file and then move it the saves folder in the world that was just created.(may increase world generation time when the world is initially made). The least complicated way I could think of doing something like this.

[Microcellule]

Yeah !

 

I will work on this way ! Thank you !

That would work, at least so far as the terrain has already been generated and saved in the worldsave. It may do weird things when you get to parts of the map that have not been generated yet though.
