Costs 50 Corrupt Dirt, 50 Flesh Strands, and upgrades from the Mutant Terraformer. Crimson Terraformer: Converts planet to Flesh Cave. Do note that, like the other sub-biome Terraformers added, these three will not convert the planet's main biome type. All three can be found from the Terraforge, as usual. Added the Terraformers for the missing cave biomes, Cell Cave, Flesh Cave (which is apparently different from the normal Flesh biome), and Limestone Cave. Fixed errored Colourful biome entry (damned UK spellings.) Fixes for several Terraformers with errored entries. Attempted bugfix for Prism Terraformer. My advice would be to use the base Terraformer of the biome you want to change the planet type, then use the modded Terraformer that you craft from it to get the terrain. While the new Terraformers won't bug your world when converting large amounts, they also won't convert planet types. Added missing Swamp Terraformer costs 50 mud and 50 plant matter to modify a Jungle Terraformer.

If you have any suggestions for changes or additions, or - Kluex forbid - you find a bug, let me know in the comments.Ī big thanks to Godeps and his Tentacle Terraformer mod for inspiring me to get into modding. Make sure to use a standard Terraformer before you convert it into a microbiome Terraformer! Terraformers are also unable to change the liquids of ocean type planets, so make sure to have the that set up before you start using them. Due to limitations with biome allocations, these microbiome Terraformers can't change the primary biome of a planet, just redecorate it. Each one's recipe requires components gathered from the biome itself, or in a couple of rare cases, a substitute item that makes sense for the recipe. Since demand and support for my first mod was so huge, and everyone was so enthusiastic about being able to get more biomes into their Terraformers, I've gone ahead and made one with literally every naturally-spawning biome except the more nonsensical or broken of the bunch (Moon, Asteroid field, and anything to do with a specific location).

For all changes, have a look at the changelog. The primary option of using Cryptomator on Linux is via the AppImage. Those were the two major changes you should know about. If you aren’t affected by any of these issues, we encourage you to use WinFsp/FUSE. Access with the admin rights is only possible when the vault is mounted into a directory (as opposed to a drive letter).If you are logged in to Windows via an AzureAD account, vaults can only be accessed read-only.There are some known issues with WinFsp though: Please note that Dokany 2.x is not yet supported and our existing Dokany 1.x glue code requires a migration. WebDAV and Dokany will remain part of Cryptomator, should you prefer it in your individual setup. The time has come to make this the default choice so we can focus on a common code base. FUSE support (provided by WinFSP) on Windows is now available for quite a while and feedback was very promising. The integration of a vault into the OS currently supports WebDAV (legacy), Dokany (Windows), and FUSE (all systems). ![]() This decision is mainly based on the long-term maintenance effort. New Default VFS Driver (Virtual Volume)Īs already mentioned, the new EXE installer can include dependencies again, so we added one right from the start: WinFsp.

For a complete list, run the installer with the /? parameter. Furthermore, it supports command-line parameters (e.g., /quiet). ![]() These dire times are over! When you head over to downloads and select Windows, you’re getting an executable again that bundles the MSI installer as well as additional dependencies. ![]() But this approach also had drawbacks: We couldn’t bundle third-party drivers (i.e., Dokany) leading to inferior user experience. With Cryptomator 1.6.0, instead of delivering a “regular” executable for installation, we provided a Windows Installer package to allow easier scripted deployment of Cryptomator.
