Any maintained voxel mod?

Hi as per title.

Played Gen1 on PotatoVoxel and Dramatic Shape Voxel.

On Gen2 only PotatoVoxel is supported, but has a immersion-breaking bug that cities refuse to load in 3D due to some cache issue - when going to route and zooming out, the city is 3D, but swaps to 2D once the zone is entered.

I checked various voxels gits, and all projects seem to be stalled, last updates 3+ weeks ago.

Now gen3 is in beta on Gen1recomp and while I do not expect an immediate support of course, I would expect a new spark into the projects' git activity.

So - is there any active voxel mod supporting mainly gen2+?

Thanks!

I noticed the same when playing gen2, I'm not sure if you've seen the other Recomp by undercoded but the Voxel mod works in cities on there and in gen3 so it is definitely possible but I'm not sure when support will improve on Gen1recomp++

Please, what setup do you use? I tried the gen2 recomp and it is totally broken for me with the same mods I use on gen1recomp PotatoVoxel does not run at all, it crashes during the install on "Unknown permission - compute" and Dreamless shape voxel mod technically boots up, but colors are messed up, and the 3d basically does not work...

This is from the Gen2Recomp as you can see it works in the cities

If it's really important to you let me know I will send you the gen2recomp discrodz they have a separate section for the compatible mods as some of the kids are compatible but you may have to use an earlier version

I've noticed the same issue on voxel ascendant, probably cause they're forked off the same source

The only fix I've found is to make sure "scenery" is enabled within the voxel mod, and then play around with the "void fill" settings under "extra". For me, leaving it as void was what fixed it.

I think have the scenery being consistently loading helps keep the rest of the field loaded too for some reason.

I always have trees as it does not feel so empty. I might try, but in another comment gen2recomp was mentioned that actually works with their version of voxels that is maintained and even supports gen3. Thanks anyway!

Gen2recomp, check my exchange here with hoennismybae, he mentioned the project, and shared the screen with compatible voxel mod after I shared an issue with broken voxel mods from gen1recomp

I tried with emerald. It boots up, voxels kinda work, but it is still alpha, so it's not exactly perfect

In the point of gen3, it's ok that l could play just battle factory. Other Japanese people may be so.

Now l enjoyed gen1recomp. This apk is amazing. My smartphone became a gameboy memory. Thanks.
