Minecraft mod that draws a preview of the world on the loading screen during chunk generation.
- Legal for the minecraft java edition leaderboards
- The full chunk map must be shown in the recording to get a run verified
- Switching to the F3 + Esc menu will make your run count as f3
- Compatible with all allowed mods
- World preview doesn't modify world generation in any way. It simply takes already completed chunks, converts them to client chunks (Chunks minecraft can render) and then draws these chunks on the loading screen.
- There are no server side modifications besides minecraft getting the random value for the player spawn earlier (Random is Random so it doesn't change anything)
- You will not be able to reset after ~ when the chunk map reaches 100%. This is intentional
The preview will always render when you create a world.
There are 5 ways the player can interact with the preview:
Direct Inputs
- Leave World Generation and Reset: Press the "Save and Quit to Title" button to instantly leave the World Generation to the title screen
- F3 + Esc: Press F3 and Esc at the same time to switch the pause menu to the F3+Esc pause menu (shown below) and press Esc to switch back. This will make your run count as f3.
Hotkeys (These can be changed in the Controls Screen)
- Leave World Generation and Reset with Hotkey, default button "g" (English keyboard): Press the hotkey button to instantly leave the World Generation to the title screen
- Cycle Chunk Map, default button "h" (English keyboard): Cycle through the 4 positions of the chunk map
- Freeze Preview, default button "j" (English keyboard): Freezes the preview (helps with CPU performance)
The State File is created while the game is running and can be found
in .minecraft/wpstateout.txt. The file contains a single line of text containing
information about the game's current state, and overwrites itself whenever the state
changes. The following states will appear as lines in the file:
waitinginworld,pausedinworld,unpausedinworld,gamescreenopentitlegenerating,[percent](before preview starts)previewing,[percent]
Extra logs: In addition to the state file messages also appearing in the log files, the mod prints 3 log lines:
- "Starting preview at (x, y, z)" at the start of the preview (Reset buttons unlocked)
- "Leaving world generation" when leaving world generation (Reset buttons locked)
- "Freezing Preview / Unfreezing Preview" when the freezing / unfreezing the preview You will not be able to reset after ~ when the chunk map reaches 100%. This is intentional.
