SuperFancyClouds: Rearchitected

Bugfixes & Improve

• Fix an issue that makes cloud refresh thread shutdown when playing for too long.
• Fix Sodium-Extra compat.
• Remove Raised Cloudscompat due to it no open-source and I never test with it, I'm not sure this compat can work properly.
• Fix a missing server-side command and improved others.
• Fix an issue that makes cloud refresh & move can't pause when a singleworld is paused.
• Increased biome multiplier, again.
• Slightly modifying calculation process of cloud height.

(1.18.2 only) Fix a problem that makes clouds flicker and wonky when player across chunk border.

Sharing same sky!

• Synchronize cloud height, thickness, density, location etc. in the multiplayer to keep cloud of each client consistent.
  • You need to install SFCR on server and client both, and enable Sync to Server option for that.
  • Now SFCR is optional for two side. But if one of them is not installed, this feature will not work.
• Add a command chain on server side for OP to manage SFCR server config remotely.
• Weather detection function is optimized during code refactoring progress which is for server-side installation.
• Some small tweak and fix.

A small patch for optimization

Change

• Cloud will get a bit blush at dawn & dusk.
• Add Biome Affect Filter to ignore some small or narrow biome like river.
  • You can customize it.
• Cloud will keep its position when clouds render distance is changed.
• Increase base cloud density for 10%.
• Increase base biome multiplier for 50%.
  • Desert and similar still few clouds because zero times everything is zero :-P

Fix

• Replace lot of int divisor with float to fix rounding calculation mistake.
  • Now there's no weird flicker issue I hope.

Known Issue

[IMPORTANT to 1.18] There is a strange issue that cloud is wonky when player across chunk border I can't solve now, so I decided to temporarily stop the 1.18 support until I can handle it.

• Fix a critical crash when join a server/multiplayer causing by pre-detect feature.
  • Now it will disable automatically when you're not a host.
• Weather Pre-Detect Time option now can set to 0 to disable it manually.

backport to 1.18.2

See the log of 1.19.2.

Biome Detect Here!

Change

• Add Biome Detect feature: using biome downfall factor to change clouds density.
• Improve Weather Detect accuracy, sensitivity and visual performance.
  • Add pre-detect function: now clouds can forecast the next weather.
  • Better density threshold.
  • Smoother density changing.
• Open more configurable options. Therefore, rework the config screen.
• Lang file updated.

Fix

• Clouds will not render in other dimensions without Skylight such as Nether and End.
• Distance for auto fog now properly calculate.
• Fix and improve density calculation result.
• Fix the distance of frustum when no fog.
• Other small fix (check the commits list on Github to see detail).

Known Issue

• Pre-detect feature can't work in the end of rain & thunder due to an error in method return value of the Minecraft itself.

See the non-suffix BETA.

Weather Detect Beta

• Let clouds density changed depends on current weather.
• Let clouds refresh faster when weather changed.
• Let clouds refresh slower when weather is "steady".
• Rework and optimize config system to update value correctly when config screen was close.
• Cloud Render Distance Fit to View option now work properly.
• Add Auto Fog option.
• Try to fix fog incorrect covering by increase its distance multiplier.
• Adjust the range of config slider for more suitable.
• Lang file updated.

I'm not satisfied with actual effect of density change for now. It may take a long time to improve. So I release a BETA first to anyone wants the weather detect.

Port to 1.19.3

Configurable!

• Add Cloth Config Dependence to config clouds height, clouds width and others.
  • You can use Mod Menu to open the config screen in game.
  • Config file lies in config\sfcr.json
• Clouds Layer Thickness can be changed from 8 up to 128! (Experimental, default is 32)
• Clouds Render Distance can be changed from 64 up to 384! (Default is 96)
• Clouds Height can be separately changed from 128 up to 384! (Default was following vanilla)
  • This will be ignored if you install a mod which can modify clouds height. Such as Sodium-Extra and Raised Clouds. For reason to let them work.
• Toggleable between SuperFancy and VanillaFancy. (No needs to uninstall anymore)
• Add zh_cn and en_us lang files for config screen.

Known Issues:

• Fit Render Distance to View option is WIP.
• Lagging when height and width value is too high.
• Fog for clouds is incorrectly covering below 4 in config when use wider higher clouds.

• Fix an issue that cause cloud has been cull at view border.
