It sort of works.  Main issue is that it doesnt include the setting added in .14 to limit the sprawl.  Hopefully cephalo can update it.

I think I have found all the file changes, but I would like to verify with others which tags from the world_gen.txt are new. I prefer to do one update than two.

from the file changes.txt in the dwarf fortress folder.  All 3 were added in .14

   New world gen parameters
      [SITE_CAP:<number>]
         Limits overall number of sites to this.
         Caves and ruins are included in this number, so world gen civ spread stops cold once it is attained the way things currently go.

      [MEGABEAST_CAP:<number>]
         Attempts to place this many megabeast groups (also effectively capped by total cave number).
         In vanilla DF, there are no megabeasts that actually occur in groups, but it is possible in mods.
         Placing more beasts than caves will cause all caves to be filled by megabeasts.  This will leave nothing for races like kobolds.
         Can be zero if you don't want any megabeasts.

      [SEMIMEGABEAST_CAP:<number>]
         Attempts to place this many semimegabeast groups (they get the last cave remnants).
         Because they get the last available caves, setting this to maximum causes all remaining caves to be filled with civs unaffected.
         Can be zero if you don't want any semimegabeasts.

Those 3 are the only ones i can spot doing a side by side compare.

Ok, I have a new version up. It includes the new world gen tags recently added. Also I improved the feedback on the world gen export functions.

EDIT: Ok, I totally screwed this up. I made 1.3 over an incomplete version of 1.2 which I had on a different computer, and now I have to spend the rest of my weekend re-merging two completly different versions.

[cephalo]

Ok 1.4 is now posted. Let me know if anything is broken, as the merging was pretty much a nightmare because I had to merge a bunch of code generated by the Windows Forms Designer. Now I have to make sure not to have old versions of code lying around, making me think they are the latest version. Grrrrr. My memory is not nearly good enough to remember what's what.

[veok]

Just to check -- version 1.4 is supposed to be compatible with 1.16, yes?

yes...

Awesome work, was waiting for this

fantastic utility but I keep getting an unhandled exception whenever I use the brush on the savagery map...

I guess I forgot to fix that. I believe it happens when you brush off the map edge, am I correct? I should work on that next week maybe.

I'm not sure tbh, it seems to be random.  Ive brought the brush all the way out beyond the border of the map and it's done it. Ive also tested it by staying within the border, keeping away from the edge, but it still does it.

Any chance we'll get a Civ V script one of these days?

The reason for the error is that I'm reading a value that is beyond the normalization range. To decide what color to draw, I normalize the low end and high end of the present values to be between 0.0 and 1.0. If I use a value greater than maximum I get this. I wonder, are you drawing on a completely blank savagery map? I usually use the gradients and noise first before editing, so maybe that 's why I haven't seen this bug.

Yes, yes! Still figuring out the subtleties of the hex map. Today I'll be shrinking a large square based perlin generated map onto various sized hex maps.... somehow.

[cephalo]

Here is a special sneak preview of what I have so far for PW3 for Civ5. The lower picture is of the seams. You can see that this example wraps in the x direction but not the y.

I'm using what I call a twisted Perlin algorithm to get variable frequencies and amplitude changes so that you have smooth transitions between feature size and bumpyness accross the map. I also have a different way to generate mountain ranges than I use for DF,(see the subtle lines, maybe too subtle to show up when shrunk) but it has yet to prove its worth.

[Turambar]

Very nice :thumbs up:

[veok]

Is there any way I can use perfect world to take a finished, fully generated world, modify the terrain, and regen it?

I finally got my ideal embark spot -- but it's in grassland, not desert, and I'm looking for a way to change it. Can Perfect World help? Can *any* tool help?
