Lost the ability to render custom dimensions

Open Capri205 opened this issue 9 months ago • 3 comments

Hi. Is there a way to include custom dimensions? It looks like a commit a few weeks back means we can only run overviewer against vanilla servers. Servers running multiverse or some of our forge/neoforge servers will no longer render following the update I applied today, even though those dimensions are using standard blocks. Ensuring there is a dimension key in the config is fine, but limiting the key to only vanilla 'overworld', 'nether' and 'end' doesn't seem right. Hopefully there's a way to pass these in and not have to resort to changing the validator code every update.

Thanks.

Hi @Capri205 - I'm not familiar with custom dimensions or how to set up a test case to reproduce the issue. I'm aware of the commit you're referring to, but I'd like to reproduce the issue myself before taking a look at it.

Do you have an example mod/datapack/etc that I can install to test this with?

@Capri205, this was my bad, the reason behind adding in dimension key being specific to vanilla Minecraft was because Overviewer does not support mods.

Knowing now that there are mods out there that utilize vanilla blocks but also incorporates custom dimensions. I'll make some changes to the code that require the dimension key be set in the config but can take any value.

Hopefully this satisfies.

Actually, in your configuration file, how do you normally render your other dimensions?
