Hey

I have a question about creating a new world in the monster pack v1.0.10.
Is it possible to use Alternate Terrain Generation and Biomes O Plenty together ?
If so how do you do that ? And can you also use Highlands at the same time as the other 2 ?

I have tried out some stuff myself but it didn't worked out so well. And by creating a new world you can only chose Biomes o' plenty, ATG - alternate, highlands or highlands LB at world type. But you don't have an option to chose more then 1 at the time.

Thanks

If you have Highlands and BoP enabled in the launcher and then pick ATG as the world gen, then it will use the ATG world gen tool but will populate it with BoP and Highland biomes. This is already set up in the configs to work.

If you want to use Highlands as world gen tool but want it to use BoP biomes too, I think you need to modify the Highlands configs to use the BoP biome IDs in its process yourself.

When I tried out Horizons when it was new, I found a couple of BoP biomes looking really weird in ATG. This might be because I activated a bunch of biomes that was disabled, but I wanted more than the 5-10% of biomes that were active as standard.
Ended up with a server without ATG just because I liked the BoP biomes variety over ATG's features.

As much as I love ATG, it causes massive TPS issues regardless of specs. I can manage 60FPS no problems, but TPS will randomly go from 20 to 3 back to 20 even on a brand new world with ATG enabled. This wasn't always the case, and I think it's currently a bug, but with the latest versions it definitely happens.

Many other people have reported it too... I would avoid it. You may not notice it until putting a couple hours into a world, and there's no real way to remove ATG without messing up some world gen.

Ok thanks for the info.
If there is a chance that ATG will cause issues then I will not use it for the moment.

If I want to use BoP and Higlands together, do I need to change BoP config to add it to default and then use Higlands with world type when I create a new world ? If so do I need to chose highlands or highlands LB as world type ?
