Perlin Explorer

Perlin Explorer is a mod to allow to test and experiment around with Perlin noises.

This is especially useful for game and mod developers who want to fine-tune the noises in an efficient manner. It’s also useful to discover useful noise parameters for the various mapgen settings.

This mod uses Luanti’s builtin Perlin noise, so the same rules apply here. Refer to Luanti’s documentation to learn about noise parameters.

This mod is quite complex as it is aimed for developers primarily. Read the README.md text file to learn how to use this mod.

Features

• Powerful noise parameter editor to quickly adjust parameters
• Look up Perlin noise value at a given position
• Special nodes to represent noise values
  • Color denotes value, cutoff points can be customized
  • Choose between solid nodes, transparent grid nodes, and tiny climbable cube nodes
• Generate a small portion of the noise as map at a given area
• Enable “mapgen mode” to automatically generate nodes as you move around
• Load predefined Perlin noises from the Luanti configuration
• Save noise parameters into profiles for later use
• Mathematical and statistical analysis of noises
