Progress report
I was unable to work on uNmINeD in the summer, but now I’m back on track and already implemented a bunch of things. I have moved the project to .NET Core 3.0 because it supports both Span<T> and WPF. Span<T> gives better performance and cleaner code, and causes much less complications and headaches when implementing chunk processing and map rendering algorithms optimized for speed. I have also done some experiments with Forge and Fabric mods.
More info and new releases are coming soon.
Roadmap
uNmINeD for Minecraft 1.13+ was redesigned from scratch using some old code from the legacy version and new C# features like async/await. It’s based on .NET Core, so the command line version now can run on Linux and macOS. However, the GUI version still requires Windows 7 or later.
What to expect in the upcoming releases:
- Image export
- Dimensions (Nether, End, etc.)
- Load/Save map settings
- Configuration files for everything (map colors, custom blocks and biomes, etc.)
- Block filter
- Block highlighter/finder
- Block list
- Players
- Waypoints
- Structures (villages, strongholds, etc.)
- Overlays (biomes, caves, errors, statistics, etc.)
- Biome based coloring
- Rendering using in-game textures
- Map tile cache (for fast zoom out)
- Chunk data viewer
- Support for older Minecraft versions from 1.2 to 1.12.2
Requests are welcome.
