Changelog:
27/09/2010

• added shell script (for mac and linux) and command line script (windows)
• fixed mac default directory (actually it checks for both now)
• fixed out of memory error (128mb is not enough for everyone!) for all launchers. (now set it to max 1gb)
• handles 'os not supported' to gracefully exit now (report if this hapens though)
• added windows 2003 support
• can now teleport to your spawning point. (pressing HOME will teleport you there)
• now starts at your currently saved position. (pressing END will teleport you there)
• now draws the current player position and the position of the spawnpoint on the map
• holding SHIFT now makes you go faster
• pressing LEFT CONTROL now makes you go straight down
• press NUMPAD_1 -> NUMPAD_6 to determine the size of the visible world. (warning: large areas will load SLOWLY, render SLOWLY and consume a lot of memory etc)
• press + or - to increase or decrease the light
• pressing ` will toggle a tab with some info (like memory usage and current location : note - memory usage is maximum heap size, not currently used size)
• made large widescreen resolutions the default picks in the resolutiondialog (if available)

25/09/2010

• changed the way maps are loaded and filtered, fixing a few bugs where blocks were filtered out too agressively
• now loads/shows a much larger area of the map
• loading of 'new' area's delayed for a smoother experience
• you can toggle which minerals you would like to see
• you can toggle wheter selected minerals 'glow' (and are visible through solid ground to spot them more easily)
• added nifty loading bar on the screen so you can see when the program is loading a new part of the map
• you can toggle wheter to show the world in 'fullbright' mode or with lightning enabled. In the latter mode (now default) blocks further away appear darker (See video)
• changed the texture filtering to 'no filter', so it is exactly like minecraft
• (due to demand) added mobspawners to the list of things to look for, toggle them to make them glow etc

Hello All,

this is the third release of my program. As always it includes the java source code. This release mainly incorporates the feedback I had since the last version. The main feature for most of you will be the fact that you will start at the position where you were last. You can now also teleport to the spawnpoint and the player position at will.

Furthermore I've tried to increase support for linux and macs. There was a bug where the mac version did not 'guess' the correct minecraft directory. This should be fixed now. I've added a shellscript for linux as well. This is all untested. I don't have access to a mac or a linux computer so I will need your input on this.

Lastly, some people had some problems where the map was not loading or not loaded correctly. This was, as far as I could determine, due to a memory error. Both the exe loader and the shellscript will now tell java to reserve more memory (up to one gigabyte) so I hope this fixes most of the errors for you.

Then I've added some quality of life improvements: You can increase the range of the lighting (use + and -). You can now move down using a key (left control). You can determine the range of the visible map (carefull though, the larger the range, the slower it will go). You can now also move faster by holding the 'SHIFT' button.

I've not made a new video, I don't think the changes warrant that yet. This is mostly a bug-fix / make things smoother release. Enjoy!



As always, I really appreciate feedback, ideas, bug reports, performance reports and request. So please try it out and let me know how it works and what you think.

Keys
'WASD' to move
'SPACE' fly upward
'LEFT CONTROL' fly downward
'TAB' to show a world map,
'ESC' to quit,
'F1-F6' toggle mineral types (starts with all mineral types 'off')
'F8' - toggle mineral glow (starts with mineral glow on)
'F9' - toggle 'fullbright' mode or 'lighting' mode (starts in lighting mode)
'F10' to toggle fullscreen.
'+' Increase lighting range
'-' Decrease lighting range
NUMPAD_1 to NUMPAD_6 (remember Num Lock (!)) . Set the visible world range. default = 3
