This version introduces many new features including:

• Support for Minecraft 1.21.4
• Allay platform support
• Minestom platform support
• Improvements to the CLI generator
• Various other changes, optimizations, and bug fixes

Config pack development changes:

• Platform Minecraft Biome Config:
  • Both Fabric and Bukkit's Minecraft Biome Config have been cleaned up and Bukkit now supports the full range of options
• Noise addon changes:
  • Both FBM and the basic ArithmeticSampler samplers now implement the DerivativeNoiseSampler API
  • You can now turn off salting the noise lookup of the Cellular sampler with the new salt-lookup parameter
  • New LINEAR_MAP normalizer

Paralithic changes:

• Adds support for Paralithic let expressions. Let expressions enable the ability to bind names to expressions within the context of another expression, e.g.

5 + let
  a := 3.5,
  b := a^2, // Optional trailing comma
in a * b * (let d := sqrt(x) in cos(d))

• As the introduction of let expressions may break config packs and the noise predicate addon (which uses the in invocation variable reserved as a keyword in let expressions), this must explicitly be enabled in pack.yml via the following:

expressions:
  options:
    enable-let-expressions: true

• The noise predicate addon will use input instead of in if let expressions are enabled, which currently affects only the EXPRESSION_NORMALIZER sampler

This version brings our minimum supported Minecraft version to 1.20.4 for both Fabric, and Bukkit (Paper+).

With this version config developers should update their config packs translating minecraft:grass to minecraft:short_grass and updating entity ids from ZOMBIE to minecraft:zombie, for example.

  • New sampler TRANSLATE - Allows translating sampler coordinate inputs
  • New sampler EXPRESSION_NORMALIZER - Allows modifying the output of a sampler using an expression
  • New LocalNoiseLookup CELLULAR sampler return type - Uses coordinates relative to closest cell origin for noise lookup
• New experimental optional image caching parameters available in pack.yml to reduce memory usage once images are no longer needed:
  • images.cache.load-on-use: true - Only load images into memory upon first use

This version introduces an overhaul for image handling via the library-image addon. Notable new capabilities include:

• Image stitching support for large scale image distribution.
• Coordinate transformations on images, allowing the configuration of the world position of images.
• More flexible color to biome mappings.
• Distance transform noise sampler, allowing applications such as height maps from pure-black/pure-white images.

You can find the documentation for this new addon here: https://terra.polydev.org/config/documentation/image/index.html

In addition are the following changes:

• Fixed a bug in pipeline v2 where the correct base biome was not returned, resulting in extrusions incorrectly working.
• Added a new alternative method of calculating slant palettes that better supports overhanging terrain.
• Reduced the amount of caching done by pipeline v2, reducing memory consumption for applicable config packs.
• Fixed relative offset handling for Sponge v2 schematics exported by WorldEdit and Sponge v3 schematics.

This is an EXPERIMENTAL 1.19.3 development snapshot for Bukkit. It should not be used in production.

1.19.3 required a lot of internal changes to how Terra interfaces with Minecraft. This release is intended to test those changes before a full beta release.

This version adds full support for 3D biomes in the following addons:

• 3D Noise Chunk Generator (3D biomes are sampled for noise)
• Feature Generation Stage (Feature generator uses ranges in biome columns to place features)

A number of optimisations regarding 3D biomes were added:

• Addition of "biome columns" to avoid repeating expensive 3D computations
• Optional override for a BiomeProvider implementation to return a "base biome" used in biome columns
• More advanced biome caching
• Finer control over biome caches

Several other general-purpose optimisations were added:

• TerraScript backend was rewritten to store LVs in an array-based table with reference and store nodes containing table indices, rather than storing in an ID-based hashmap
• 3D Noise Chunk Generator was optimised to avoid biome lookups when possible
• Adjacent palette locators no longer instantiate 4 extra Column instances
• Iteration over Range using foreach was replaced with index-based iteration in hot code.

This version also adds a new core addon, the Biome Extrusion Provider.

The Extrusion Provider takes another biome provider as a parameter, which it uses as a "base." Through "extrusion" layers, 3D biomes are inserted on top of the base biomes.

This release also fixes a Minecraft bug where bee entities access the world random instance upon instantiation, which during worldgen can potentially cause an exception due to a race condition (Fixes #327)

The Forge implementation is in ALPHA

• Addon API was completely separated from common implementations
• Addon loader was rewritten to use "bootstrap addons" to define loading process
• Config schemas are now implemented by "core addons" bundled with platform distributions
• Brand new overworld config

You can see a full list of changes in the 6.0 tracking Pull Request.

You can read more about the new API at the new Terra wiki

Alpha snapshot of 6.0.0

• Improved addon system
• Improved API
• Modularized project
• Contains new default config
• Added air fryer
• Removed omelette

Performance improvements

This version adds inventory and entity support, meaning the loot and entity TerraScript functions will now work.

It also adds more rotation stuff, so there should no longer be weirdly rotated stuff in structures.
