Question 1

How do I set up voxeliq on Linux?

Accepted Answer

Install Mono and MonoGame, then compile the C# source code. Refer to the wiki for platform-specific guidance, but be prepared for potential setup hurdles due to limited documentation.

Question 2

voxeliq vs Godot for making a block-based game?

Accepted Answer

voxeliq is a C#-focused engine with built-in voxel rendering, while Godot offers a more general-purpose toolkit with visual scripting. Choose voxeliq for open-source control in C#, but Godot for broader features and a larger ecosystem.

Question 3

Is voxeliq good for multiplayer games?

Accepted Answer

The project focuses on voxel rendering and moddability, with no highlighted multiplayer features. You'll likely need to implement networking yourself or rely on community add-ons.

Question 4

How to create mods for voxeliq?

Accepted Answer

Modify the C# source code directly, as the engine aims for 100% moddability. Check the wiki for examples, but expect a code-heavy approach without built-in modding tools.

Question 5

Does voxeliq work on macOS Catalina or later?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since it uses MonoGame and .NET/Mono, it should run on modern macOS, but ensure compatibility with the latest Mono versions and be ready for potential dependency issues.

Question 6

What performance can I expect from voxeliq?

Accepted Answer

Performance depends on voxel complexity and hardware; the engine is optimized for block-based rendering, but the 'famous meshing bug' in the old code suggests potential optimizations are needed.
