0-9 as normal 10-a 11-b 12-c. so on. That is what i was thinking.

Actually. Yea.
Oh, use 37-62 as capital letters.

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;
And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!

Don't forget the part about explaining you are him from the future, and that if he doesn't do this the world will end, and it will all be his fault!
Now this guy knows how to have fun!
Right. Almost forgot.
It's going to be a paradox, then? Don't say the world will end, say that the main dev isn't Jeb anymore, but D-Bone. Therefore, he need to make an innovation to become the main dev again!

Well, we don't want to scare him, do we?

Find your new view distance in chunks (r') based on your old one (r):
r' = cube root (6 * r^2) / 2
Hope that helped.
If we say the world will end, the future is null, therefore no future Jeb. But, if there is no future Jeb, he won't say that the world will not end. If the world doesn't end, future Jeb exist. Future Jeb will say 'The world will end'.
It's recursive, so it's a paradox.

He, of course, escaped just before the end.
Close, but not quite right.
Firstly, you can simplify it a lot, and since chunks cannot be partially loaded, we do not have to be exact. This is more presentable and is easier to work with;
r' = 0.91 × r2/3
Secondly, you've assumed that "volume of sphere = area of circle". See the problem? Volume is not the same as area; m2 = m3 is not valid. Really, we should say the volume of a linear chunk is;
pi × r2 × 16
So the correct formula is;
r' = 2.29 × r2/3
Or perhaps more useful, a ratio of the volumes of the view regions if they have the SAME radius; r/12.
Of course, when the view radius becomes larger than 12, funky things start happening, but it's all been calculated and explained in the OP.

(2r+1)2 x 16
Mostly moved on. May check back a few times a year.
I was really just correcting what Bear put, hopefully preventing people from reading it and getting the wrong idea. Regardless, so long as the correct information is in the OP, it doesn't really matter. It wouldn't hurt to double check some numbers before we make the presentation thing, but anyway.
Also Calac, you need to update the code for the banner in the OP, it's still linking to the old banner/picture which no longer exists.

I think we made a point about that. wait. Oh. Idk :/
Mod? This thread is about Mojang implementing Cubic Chunks into the vanilla, making such mods totally redundant.

I dont see how making this into a Mod would be redundant.
Also under the FAQ, its say that this was once a Mod, but is currently abandoned at 1.0. I would definetly would like this to be a mod and would definitely use it cause I have a terrible computer.
This WAS a mod, but it has gone out of date. The point of this topic is to discuss ways we can improve the code of it, and to debate the best way to bring it to the attention of Mojang.
