Changes:

• Improved performance: reduced memory allocation stress, huge drop in GC wait time, +50% speed
• (GUI) Shadow rendering* is available again
• (CLI) Added --night parameter for night mode rendering
• (CLI) Added --shadows parameter for rendering shadows
• Fixed crashes in web map export

* Note that this is a simple heightmap based shadow algorithm that does not handle floating objects, bridges, overhangs, and other structures with holes. Accurate shadow calculation will come later.

Changes:

• Added blocks from latest Minecraft 1.17 snapshot 21w08b
• Added zoom in levels for image export
• Added zoom in levels for web export
• Added mouse coordinates to web map
• Increased max zoom out level
• Fixed int32 overflows caused by very far regions
• (CLI) Added zoom range options for web export (--zoomin, --zoomout)
• (GUI) Reduced memory usage
• (GUI) Fixed memory leaks
• (GUI) Fixed crashes while changing zoom level
• (GUI) Fixed empty browser when adding a single world folder

uNmINeD now ignores insanely far regions with block coordinates greater than ±67 million to avoid int32 overflows in calculations. This limitation is unlikely to cause any problems since in-game world border is at ±30 million.

This release contains macOS related fixes for the GUI version.

Changes:

• (macOS GUI) Changed packaging to an easy to run/install app
• (macOS GUI) Fixed wrong Minecraft saves path

My friend in a galaxy far, far away finally managed to install macOS inside a virtual machine running on his PC, so now I can test uNmINeD on macOS.

Installation instructions: extract the downloaded tar.gz and start the application (or move it to Applications and start from there).

Required macOS version is 10.13 High Sierra or later.

New uNmINeD development snapshot is available for download!

Changes:

• New chunk processing and rendering workflow
• Added I/O scheduling
• Optimized block name pattern matching (faster stylesheets)
• Improved support for worlds with negative Y (Minecraft 1.17)
• Fixed missing zoom out tiles in generated web maps
• (CLI) The --area parameter now accepts block, chunk and region rectangles

uNmINeD now reads region files one by one and sequentially instead of random access. This has a huge impact on chunk read times on hard disks (5-10x).

uNmINeD now also have a new task scheduler and a new render pipeline with some buffering that allows reducing the number of chunks that need to be read and processed more than once.

Value of the –area parameter can be a block, a chunk or a region rectangle. The rectangle can be specified using two points (top-left and bottom-right corners of the rectangle), or using one point (top-left corner), and a size (width, height).

Syntax:

--area=b(x,z,width,height)
--area=c(x,z,width,height)
--area=r(x,z,width,height)
--area=b((x1,z1),(x2,z2))
--area=c((x1,z1),(x2,z2))
--area=r((x1,z1),(x2,z2))

The bottom and right edges specified by the point (x2,z2) are exclusive, they are outside of the rectangle.
