Most of those parameters are greyed out until you import the world_gen.txt file. The manual is a bit outdated, but still very much worth a read.

is there a way to scroll down to look at the rest of the options? everything is windowed strangely.

There is a bug on the temperature tab that prevents scrolling. Is that what you mean? For now, the only way to get at them is to make the window bigger. I will have this fixed for next time.

EDIT: I suppose small screen users might be out of luck for now. Sorry!

[Zavvnao]

Take your time then ^^

Did anyone came up with any workaround? I have no way of completing my temperature map.. Or just a fix from creator, it should be and easy edit to add a scrollbar there.

Yes, it's a super easy fix. I can't believe I released a major update with only one bug. Are there NO other bugs guys? I can do another update to fix this, I was just holding out for more bugs. The only workaround is to increase the window size big enough to show the whole panel at once. On my 1280x1024 monitor, this is no problem, but I suppose certain font sizes and environments could make this impossible.

Shall I update?

[MIC132]

Yeah, I'm playing on laptop, and on 1366x768 whole third part of the panel is inaccessible.

I guess if it's an easy fix you could release it as 1.8b or something. As long as it's not a lot of work. If I'm reading correctly the last release was 2 months ago, so if there were any major bugs someone would notice them by now.

[cephalo]

Well, that took 5 whole minutes. Sorry to make everyone wait two months! Here is the bug fix.

Hey, I just tried it for the first time. The result is amazing.
I googled some elevation maps of earth and did some test.

Earth 257x129

Did you have to take a few tries to get the evil areas aligned with Russia and Texas (257x129), or did your RNG just have a good sense of humor?

If anyone else wants to have a go at it, there's a good heightmap here.

If you want a more detailed map of a particular area, USGS has more resources.

The important thing to remember is you need an 8-bit greyscale image to work with.

I need a scroll wheel for temperature map ASAP.

EDIT: Thanks for that update!

It took some work for me to get this running on OSX, so I thought I should share my solution. Hope this can be useful to someone!

You'll need Mono to run the application. Currently there's an issue with the latest release, I found a fix here, which recommends installing the fixed version available here instead of from the Mono website. Once it's been installed, open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing the executable. Enter "mono PerfectWorldDF.exe" and the window will appear after just a moment.

I wish the savagery map had the same options for gradients as the temperature map (angle and linear/radial vs. what we have now).

[cephalo]

That shouldn't be too hard now that the problems have been solved. I'll try to remember that next time I have an opportunity to update.
