Mod packs are groups of mods put into one package for download, often with an auto-installer. A mod pack's purpose is to make it easier for the player to install and manage multiple mods. [74] Mod packs may be created with the purpose of making the original game more accessible to new players or to make the game harder for veterans to enjoy.
A Minecraft server network that allows players to make their own servers and advertise it to thousands of daily players. It is owned by GamerSafer, who also created the Official Minecraft Server List. [60] nerd.nu June 2009: One of the two oldest Minecraft servers. The map has been revised at least 26 times, and sources conflict on whether nerd ...
A plot of the smoothstep(x) and smootherstep(x) functions, using 0 as the left edge and 1 as the right edgeSmoothstep is a family of sigmoid-like interpolation and clamping functions commonly used in computer graphics, [1] [2] video game engines, [3] and machine learning.
Two-dimensional slice through 3D Perlin noise at z = 0. Perlin noise is a type of gradient noise developed by Ken Perlin in 1983. It has many uses, including but not limited to: procedurally generating terrain, applying pseudo-random changes to a variable, and assisting in the creation of image textures.
In statistics and image processing, to smooth a data set is to create an approximating function that attempts to capture important patterns in the data, while leaving out noise or other fine-scale structures/rapid phenomena. In smoothing, the data points of a signal are modified so individual points higher than the adjacent points (presumably ...
Smooth functions with given closed support are used in the construction of smooth partitions of unity (see partition of unity and topology glossary); these are essential in the study of smooth manifolds, for example to show that Riemannian metrics can be defined globally starting from their local existence.
A kernel smoother is a statistical technique to estimate a real valued function: as the weighted average of neighboring observed data. The weight is defined by the kernel, such that closer points are given higher weights. The estimated function is smooth, and the level of smoothness is set by a single parameter.
