There is the screenshot in the README.md, displaying much of colors.

Locally I do only see gray, a little bit of red and black letters:

I compiled using the following environment:

component version

rustc 1.8.0 (db2939409 2016-04-11)
graphic card Some Intel onboard stuff, shared memory, up to 512 MiB of Video-RAM
Memory 8 GiB
CPU i5 @ 2600 GHz

Yeah, I should make this more obvious.

Basically, the camera starts you at position [0, 0, 0], however, the terrain generation algorithm results in the ground being higher than that point (around [0, 16, 0], I think).

So you need to move the camera up along the Y-axis to get higher (you're basically "inside" the ground right now).

They key for that is either , or .

I should probably make the camera start above the ground though as a more proper solution.

EDIT: as a side-note, thanks for the system information, I appreciate the effort!

This should be fixed on master with #85 now.

NobbZ commented 8 years ago

Yeah, seems to work now.
