      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Waves and sea foam

7 posts in this topic

We have the streams mod installed in our server. I was paying attention to the way water behaves in rivers and streams and it gave me the idea to create this tread.

​With the new tfc2 centered around Islands I think having waves and specially sea foam would add to the atmosphere of a Island beach.

Not suggesting waves in the sense of coming and going, I believe it would be hard to code and use too many resources as far as CPU and Memory.

Was thinking more in terms of having water that moves towards land and surrounds the Island, always going in the direction of Land. Like the stream water blocks.

As for the waves, maybe a sort of graphical effect that varies depending on the wind?

If we ever get wind in Minecraft it would be cool, for now I would be happy with a system where water would get shallow at the edge and with some foam effect. The movement could be constant from the ocean to the land.

I like the idea of waves, but it seems hard to code and probably too laggy.

Not a coder myself, but it is just a modified water block, like the ones used in the streams addon. The only difference is that it would be in the beaches.

Waves can be block animation. sound attached to said blocks. sea foam could be a particle animation. on top of the blocks. I don't have a good example currently.
