<p>Everytime I start up my server I am getting this message in the log. The world loads up, but when I join I can only see sky and animals slowly falling into the void. The server does not crash, but it won't let me go anywhere. Any ideas if I am missing something? This is just a forge server with no other mods/plugins.

<p>Glad you were able to fix your problem. For future reference (or anyone else), the tree leaves thing is not a bug, it's because the LOTR mod "overwrites" the vanilla leaves block with a replacement block that has slightly different behaviour. Forge then interprets this as a block being registered incorrectly with the Ore Dictionary, which is not the case.

<p>Do you mind explaining why that is? Just curious.

<p>The mod replaces the leaf block because we had to be able to alter the code of the leaf block back when we were trying to implement seasons. That didn't happen because of other problems, but it's not totally ruled out for the future.
</p>
(Edited by LOTRMod)
<p>Any particular reason to explain why seasons didn't happen? Or is that classified to just FB Mods? :P I could get on the wiki chat for more privacy if you would prefer that for your interrogation. :P

<p>Nothing classified, I'm pretty sure I've explained this a few times before. Basically, the reason that we stopped our short burst of work on seasons back around Beta 23 was that grass blocks couldn't be made to update their colouring dynamically. We wanted grass blocks to change colour smoothly, so that we could define a "spring colour" and a "summer colour" and so on, and have the colour change between these smoothly over the course of the seasons. I finished coding that part (and the same for leaves).
</p><p>But the problem was that the grass blocks would only change colour when their chunk was updated for some reason (placing or removing a block there, or just wandering in sometimes, or some random block update, etc.) because unlike entities, blocks aren't rendered dynamically - the game compiles a list of instructions every time the chunk is updated and only when it's updated. Which is of course much more efficient for ordinary blocks, which aren't supposed to change colour dynamically over time. But this led to the problem of having some chunks go unchanged for days on end and then their grass would look awfully mismatched with the grass in nearby chunks.
</p><p>And it was a bigger problem for leaves, since some leaves didn't just vary their colour smoothly, they actually had completely different textures for different seasons (such as Mallorn leaves, or dead oak tree leaves) and on the cusp of a season change, having a tree straddling two different chunks with part of its leaves golden in autumn and the rest dead in winter looked pretty awful.
</p><p>But also, back then, I'd started coding seasons as an afterthought, just to see if I could, and I didn't realise at the time how much time such an enormous overhaul would require. Rewriting all the snow and ice mechanics... rewriting how fruit trees grow... making saplings drop automatically and regrow in the spring, while leaves gradually decay over autumn and then somehow regrow despite the blocks being gone... even hacking into all the vanilla crop growth code to alter growth rates depending on season (which almost certainly wouldn't even be possible without resorting to editing base classes)... It was just too much to do on the side. The amount of work would have been monumental, the rewards not enough to validate it, and I had so many much more important things to spend my precious mod time on (and still do).
</p><p>I hope to revisit it some day and either figure out some ingenious way to overcome these problems, or just ignore them and let people deal with the graphical discontinuities. It probably wouldn't actually be that bad, since most chunks would get updated fairly often and the colours change.
</p><p>But to see the Shire in autumn, with all the trees golden, or in summer with the fields bright green... while I had it working, that was quite a sight to behold. Maybe one day we will be able to look on it again.

<p>Well, you could somehow force the chunks to update according to some condition (Such as the state of the leaves). That's really cool, and thanks for the lengthy explanation! It's really nice to see you around the wiki, even though I know that you get a lot of crap from some users. :( You're just a really awesome person overall. :P
