Yay!Big Grin
Finished my exams and "recovered" my computer!

I'm currently trying to figure out the cubic noise algorithm. What is the algorithm Unoptimised?

Also. Is Generate2D functionally equivalent to
Code:
for (int x = 0; x < SizeX; x++)
{
    for (int y = 0; y < SizeY; y++)
    {
           CubicNoise2D(x, y);
    }
}

Almost. It has an additional coord scaling into the CubicNoise function, but the principle is the same - generate an array of values:
for (int x = 0; x < SizeX; x++)
{
    double NoiseX = StartX + (EndX - StartX) * x / SizeX;  // Go from StartX to EndX in SizeX steps
    for (int y = 0; y < SizeY; y++)
    {
        double NoiseY = StartY + (EndY - StartY) * y / SizeY;  // Go from StartY to EndY in SizeY steps
        CubicNoise2D(NoiseX, NoiseY);
    }
}
Similarly for a 3D version, it adds another dimension.

Okay. I'll use that algorithm for the GPU version. The for loops can be made parallel easily.

Jeb finaly showed his new underwater mob: http://instagram.com/p/pYcww-pMHC/# It's going to be in the snapshot today.

What's that. Instagram for screenshots now? O.o

I just re-did a profiling session of MCS with a single player online. I am pretty surprised.
The chunk generator ran at some ~120 chunks per second, which is more than enough for a regular server.
The world ticking took about 6% of the CPU, which is near to nothing.

Is there a cWorld:IsChunkLoaded function? Or just any way I can check if a chunk is loaded.
