JapsuGrid

Info

Meet the "RaysGrid" experience: A normal minecraft world, but with 99% of its blocks removed.

A modified version of the oh-so-popular Sky-Grid, but unlike Sky-Grid, the blocks generated are the same as those in a typical Minecraft world.

Everything that's possible in a normal Minecraft world, is also possible here!

Features

• Structures & decorations can either be generated normally, or "gridified" like all other terrain.
• Bedrock generation can be turned off.
• Ability to skip the removal of specific blocks (end portal frames, chests, what ever you like)!
• No liquid spilling when a chunk is loaded: water/lava stays hovering.
• Very reasonable performance: we either intercept the chunk generation process, or do post-processing with BlockPopulators.

Setup

1. Download and move the plugin to your "Plugins" -folder.
2. Assign JapsuGrid as your world generator in Bukkit.yml:

worlds:
  world:
    generator: JapsuGrid
  world_nether:
    generator: JapsuGrid
  world_the_end:
    generator: JapsuGrid

Note: If the lines above are missing from your Bukkit.yml, just add them!
