About this project

What does WorldPreview add?

World Preview

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
Compatible with the newest releases of specnr's multi-instance macros and with FinestPigeon's spawn reset macro for ssg
**For macro
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

F3 + Esc example

Usage

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)

For Macro Makers

The mod prints 3 different 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.
