I just wrote a big long response and realized it might overwhelm you since your questions were simple. So, I'll summarize for now and post something on the forum that explains in depth what state TC is currently in.

Here goes'

  • TerrainControl is alive and kicking. Well, we're walking anyway. Many good changes are coming sooner than you think though.
  • There are only two people who regularly check and reply to issues here... One of them is more lazy than the other about replying to issues... You are reading a post from the lazy one. Lol, additionally both of us are very busy people and have lives outside of this plugin.
  • The modding community is up in the air right now. Bukkit is dead. Bukkit was our main market. We are in a semi-holding pattern until things become more certain.
  • I personally am super busy making sure we have a forum and home page in case Curse decides to shut down support for Bukkit. Recently i have also been busy migrating the build server to a new location.

The general idea is: We are working hard with the time we have to continue providing you with an accessible community gathering spot, along with updating TC, fixing the bugs you guys find, and answering your questions on the forums. Sometimes we don't have time for one or all of those things in a given week. Please be patient with us and we'll get to your issues and questions when we can.

Thanks,
Timethor

Hello there! I was not really active in the last few weeks...

Cauldron is on it's way out. It won't get any more updates, it can't even be downloaded anymore. Trying to support that, especially in combination with 100 other mods installed on that server, seems like a waste of time at this point. I have already spent many hours on your bug reports, so it's not like I'm trying to find any excuse to not work on things. ๐Ÿ˜„

I do plan for there to be one last release of TC for Bukkit, just before the code is updated for Minecraft 1.8.

Now your specific issue reports:

  • #291 is most likely caused by one of your mods replacing the chunk generator of TC with their own (for example because that mod is loaded after TC on Cauldron, but before TC on Forge), causing only the settings of vanilla to work. Either that, or it's Cauldron doing something weird. If it was an issue in TC, it would also cause problems on Forge.
  • #285 - no idea. It seems some chunks are skipped, but why? It may be caused by mods doing strange things to chunk load order, as we saw in another bug report.

Anyways, I'm closing (not locking, you can still comment) this bug report, simply because "lack of responses" is not a bug in TC and therefore doesn't justify an open bug report.
