Hmm the bop Volcano biome could use a few more lava lakes instead of lhe water lakes that generate.

I have a question for the RTG devs if I may.

I wanted to know if there is any plan to add a config setting to allow the adjustment of ore spawns, the rate and height of individual ores in RTG for 1.9 in the future??? Same thing you can do if you select Custom in the world type menu.

Personally I always like to tweak the ores in MC, making them all quite a bit harder to find, but when you do find them, there's normally more spawned in that area. So I admit I'm kinda really missing that when using RTG.

What do you think???

Thanks

P.S. Also like you can increase Village spawn rates and size, maybe an entire to increase the spawn rates of Dungeons as well? Just a thought.

I don't know whether this is in the scope of RTG or not, but once it updates to 1.9, you can probably use CoFHCore for this.

Oh thank you, I hadn't come across that mod before. It seems like it may be a way off from 1.9 though, as there has yet to be a 1.8 update.

One slight problem that came up on the last version which I was about to
report - and this might not be RTG related - but Witchery mod Witch
stone circles were generating fine before, but now are placing
themselves slap centre in villages and on raised earth blocks about six
high over surrounding terrain, plus obliterating any other structures
that were supposed to be there. Doesn't happen, unless RTG is used. Will
let you know if it happens in this version.

I noticed that happening often in default worlds prior to RTG being written so I suspect it's a Witchery issue. Thaumcraft has had the same issue in the past with obelisks and mounds generating in villages, Natura redwoods, etc.

I LOVE this mod and really want to thank you guys for maintaining it! I always end up exploring my worlds more ever since I installed it, great work!

Hello! You told us to comment on biomes, and so I will! Can we make rivers wider? like 20 wide? like all of them that wide? I think we can all agree that wider rivers are never bad?

I'm using the 1.8.9 version and I'm having trouble with tweaking Biometweaker to get BOP to work with RTG. I read the forum description but I'm still having trouble.

Re: Ore configs... as Robijn mentioned, this is a little outside RTG's scope and the functionality is already available in other compatible-with-RTG mods, like CoFHCore and Custom Ore Generation, etc. The enable/disable options that RTG has is probably as far as it's ever going to go in that direction.

Yeah that's fair enough, I understand.
I just tried Simply Ore Gen mod for 1.9 and it seemed to be sort of compatible with RTG, the world generated correctly, and ores spawned perfectly but together they cause Major stuttering, the whole world freezes for a one second, then unfreezes for one second, then freezes again... so on and so on Hopefully that is something that will be worked out in the future

Re: Dungeon sizes/frequencies... I actually looked at this when I did the other size tweaks for villages, caves & ravines, but... I couldn't see any way to modify the size without re-writing the Dungeon generator (which I'd like to avoid if possible). However, I just looked into frequency options, and that's definitely doable, so I'll add that one in the next snapshot.

Completely agree, rewriting the entire Dungeon thing wouldn't be worth it, but adding a frequency option in the config would be fantastic, thank you so much for that.
.... *cough*.... could I possibly push my luck and ask if a frequency option could be implemented for strong holds too Sorry, had to ask.

P.S. - Regarding the screenshot I posted a few days ago of the ocean temple spawning in shallow water and sort of under the ground, you asked for the seed, I'm really sorry, I thought I still had that world but I deleted it by mistake
I've been testing so many different mods that I've been creating 5-10 new worlds almost daily, so I had a clean out and deleted it by accident. If I come across something like that again, I will make sure I post it here.

Sends a screnshot of biome mesa in the 1.7.10 0.8.0 version.

what were the changes that this biome suffered ?[/pre]
as were the banks of the rivers in the desert/mesa biome? sends a screnshot.

RTG uses to snow layers to create amazing polar snow deserts, so I would imagine slabs could be used to achieve a similar effect.

I'll run it by the rest of the team to see what they think.

I stumbled upon one of these for the first time recently, and was extremely impressed.

Some good news:

I updated my java to the latest (8-91), and I got a slight bump in TPS speed. FPS still fluctuates, but world gen is smoother and I'm not getting as bad of lag spikes. If you guys haven't done so yet, I recommend doing that!

And as far as the slabs suggestion goes, it would be neat if UBC stones could be implemented as an option. Gentler slopes in hilly biomes would be great.

Also, I just recently found out about the "harminous strata" config option in UBC, vastly improved the quality and look of some of the more mountainous biomes (looking at you, highlands' flying mountains)

Try placing these files in your BiomeTweaker config folder:

https://github.com/Team-RTG/1.8.9-Realistic-Terrain-Generation/tree/master/etc/biometweaker/BiomesOPlenty

Let us know how you get on.

I'm still confused on what folder to put these configs in the BiomeTweaker config folder. And is there a certain folder I should put those files in. Sorry i am more familiar with climate control. But I've moved my mods to 1.8.9.

How do I change the size of the biomes of ExtrabiomesXL and Highlands?

The Highlands Biomes look so small...

I particularly liked the results of the Highlands+RTG, they are two mods that work well with "realism".

However, the "Flying Mountains", which is one of my favorite biomes, looked like this:
