How to submit a panorama to the mod

This covers how you can easily submit panoramas to the mod, as long as you follow what you need to have

Requirements:

In order to submit a panorama, you need any of the following:

• A Computer

• A GitHub Account

• Git

• Editor (Optional)

Forking the project

First head over to https://github.com/huhuhuhuheh/daily-menu-panoramas with your account and click on the "Fork" button and then click on "Create fork"

Then open a terminal and clone your own fork with git clone https://github.com/ehshit/daily-menu-panoramas.git

After cloning the repo and navigating to it with cd daily-menu-panoramas create a new branch with git switch -c <name> (Name replaced to your branch's name linking)

Taking the panorama

To take a panorama is easy as long as your game is modded (there's mods that do these for you) and you have 2 ways:

• If you want to do high shots that would look nice you can use this Mod by SWDTeam (only for versions up to 1.21.4)

• However if you want to take shots of newer versions of the game you can use this Mod by Fridtjof-DE (up to 1.21.11 with its catch that you can't control the quality of its shots)

To control the quality of the panorama from SWDTeam's mod, anywhere (Menu or Pause Screen) click on Panorama on the top left and click on Res to change's reso (up to 4096px)

After taking the panoramas, those are stored in the following locations:

• SWDTeam's mod: .minecraft\mods\panorama\panorama-*.zip (Separate zips for each panorama)

• Fridtjof-DE's mod: .minecraft\panoramas\<date>\screenshots (Each contains their own PNGs)

Submitting the Panoramas

The basic guidelines you need to follow before you submit:

• The Panorama doesn't look any crisp or bad quality in some way

• If the building is from someone that you got allowed to take a shot of, ensure you put on the PR request, or if is it from a map, include its source

On the daily menu panoramas folder inside your file browser or a editor:

If your shot is for any event/or season, please ensure you place it on the right folder before doing the PR, usually located at one of those folders:

• src/main/resources/assets/daily_menu_panoramas/textures/gui/title/background/events

• src/main/resources/assets/daily_menu_panoramas/textures/gui/title/background/seasons

if your shot is not for any event/or season, follow the basic things before you are able to PR:

1. On src/main/resources/assets/daily_menu_panoramas/textures/gui/title/background/numeric make a folder that its name counts upwards of the current number (folder named 12 if the current is 11)

2. Afterwards simply drop the panorama PNG files in there (from the zip or the folder)

3. Then go to src/main/kotlin/net/swilia/dailymenupanoramas/client/ Open up PanoramaLogic.kt and then simply edit line 14 raising the number to the current number that has been added so the mod now thinks those exist

private const val NUM_NUMERIC_PANORAMAS = 11

After that you can commit and push to your new branch, if your editor with Git support can do it for you, follow it including to add a message of your change, however without an editor this goes as follows:

1. First add your file changes git add .

2. Then give it a commit message git commit -m "New Panorama"

3. And push it to your branch git push origin <name>

After go to the Pull Requests click on New and select your branch to submit the PR in, otherwise if git gives you a link copy it and open it (or open if your terminal supports it)

Simply add what desc and info (Including where you shot this at) and click on create Pull Request

And then that's it, when me sees and accepts it and merges it, you submitted panoramas!
