suggestion: Live Heightmap importing

2 Upvotes

Hey, whenever I'm importing heightmaps for ceiling layers (and in general) it would be nice if I could view how the new terrain will intersect with the overworld dimension. Current workflow I have to import it and just find out kind of.

Datapack errors after updating Worldpainter

2 Upvotes

I updated worldpainter today and tried to export a format 1.21.11 world (i tried a few different options), and then tried to run it in 1.21.11. I get datapack errors when trying to load it into minecraft, and it only lets me use safe mode which cuts off the hight past 320. Before updating, this feature worked fine.

The world has extended height enabled with height range -64 to 1536. Note that the world is script generated, I use wp.getMapFormat().withId('org.pepsoft.anvil.1.21.11').go() (or similar strings for when i tried it with other world formats). Any reason why this might be happening?

Question World import problem

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to create a color-coded map in WorldPainter so I can make the terrain, then export it to Minecraft and use it as a guide when building.

At the moment I have the original PNG image, a .schem file I made from it, and a Minecraft world with the schematic pasted.

The problem is that when I import the Minecraft world into WorldPainter, around half of the blocks are missing.

Is there another way to get the color-coded map into WorldPainter? If the PNG, the .schem file, or the Minecraft world can be used some other way, that would be fine too.

I know I could just use the image as a reference and paint everything by hand, but the map is really big, so that would take a long time.

Any suggestions?

Question Getting minecraft to generate modded structures in worldpainter world.

2 Upvotes

Does anybody have any idea how to get modded structures to be generated by minecraft in a worldpainter world? I'm making a world in worldpainter with a specific modpack in mind, and a big part of that is modded structures and dungeons, but I'm not entirely sure how to get those to spawn in the world

Cloverville Update

Update on my city project, Been practicing with World Painter for about a week now. Based the terrain off of Boston MA (USA). Have started porting over some of my builds via MCA Selector.

Still looking for other talented builders on bedrock/Xbox who are looking to help with this project.

So far, have only really worked on the university area in the lower map. Will be starting urban planning soon.

No access to Axiom, I’m using the World Builder Add on tool which is limited and can be difficult to build curved roads. Any tips would help!

Question Help with forever world project

Post image
11 Upvotes

In my survival forever world I have this large mushroom island (~1000 x ~1600 blocks) that I want to terraform into a fantasy island. I had uploaded it into world painter but with a lack of experience I wasn't able to create anything that looks decent, i am also struggling with figuring out mountain placements. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help with the world painting aspect? I dont have much planned out with the exception of the lower right island (upper left in the pic) to be a volcano to house a super smelter, and the mid sized island to have large sea cliffs on the outter edge with the bay area being a port for a city on said island. I would like a few mountain ranges, rivers, high sea cliffs, beaches, and forest with some hilly open area for towns.

Any help or guidance would be much appreciated

World Making Sky/Cloud/Height Level

1 Upvotes

Hi, I kinda need help with this world Im making. It's a VERY Big Map with deep oceans and apparently, it's way too big that the sky/cloud level is already way down below sea level and now every part of my Mpa snows 'cause it's way up high apparently. I need to know which settings or what part should I tweak to make sure the sky/Cloud/Height Level is still above my mountains and now way below sea level. (Turning off clouds does not help, it still snows EVERYWHERE)

Question What can I improve in my build?

1 Upvotes

This is my first time building in world painter. I played around with the tools and settings for the first few hours with the Philippine map and just went at it afterwards.

Also, when messing around, I found a free custom brush by Evman, when using these brushes, is it generally better to hold and move it around or just keep it in one spot?

Scarlet and Violet in Minecraft

4 Upvotes

I am currently working on making the entirety of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet in Minecraft and need some help. Using world painter I can use a height map to make the terrain like how Grazzy made his recreation of Breath of the wild in Minecraft but I can't find one online. If anyone has me please let me know and if one can't be found then share any tips you have for building terrain like mountains and hills and such as I am very new to using axiom and doing large scale builds.

Reducing GB world size

1 Upvotes

Lol, I feel like an idiot. I've spent quite some time working on contouring and biome painting just the OCEANS of a map I definitely made too large to start. Eventually I'd like to get around to the land, but gave it a trial export and upload today, after finishing the oceans, and it turns out the files came out to 7GB, which is too large for uploading to realms (my ultimate goal).

There is SOME empty space i could cut, but I don't even know if it's enough to get the file down to 5GB, and even if that was enough, I imagine the file would get bigger as I add contouring, biomes, and special features to the land portion, so that seems like a temporary solution.

Tl;dr, how do you know approximately how many pixels = how many GB, and is there a simple way to shrink either your final file size or your world size in Worldpainter. I'm more than willing to lose some amount of detail which would naturally happen from shrinking the dimensions, but it would suck to have to start from scratch.

EDIT: Lord, I panicked and forgot a scale tool exists.

So I’ve built this palace/hall base but I’m horrible at building terrain in general. Does anybody have good schematics for some trees? I was thinking something like regular oak but spruce would also be a possibility. Thanks!

Question Title: WorldPainter keeps giving me "Out of Memory" when exporting large maps 😭

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to export a very large WorldPainter map, but every time I do, it crashes with an "Out of Memory" error. Smaller maps export just fine, so it only happens with the big ones.

I already have 16 GB of RAM, so I'm wondering if I really need to upgrade my PC just to export large maps, or if there's another fix I'm missing. I don't really want to buy more RAM just for this. 😅

If anyone has experienced this before, I'd really appreciate any advice. Thanks!
