The DFU program was not responding anymore and had to be shut in the Windows task manager.

I have tested it again at the northern border and this time I could walk until I arrived at the invisible barrier. In a few tests, the loading of the distant terrain seemed to hick up hiccup, but it went fine after a few seconds.

At the southern border though, fast travelling to the souternmost "pixels" on the map (taverns etc.) can either cause to fall you down infinitely or you get a black screen and game does not respond anymore (music still plays the current track, then stops).

The barrier is implemented by moving you back to previous coordinates if you crossed it.
If you're "teleported" directly past the barrier, strange things will probably happen. I wonder if that can happen with some locations, maybe the limit should be upped...

(P.S. rereading the thread, many other things could go out-of-bounds...)

Thankfully so far I haven't noticed any other issues with the mod... Personally, playing DF without it is nearly impossible for me anymore. (The Mountains & Hills mod is not a real alternative)

I don't think the bounding bug I tracked down and posted about in October has been fixed yet. Nystul must be busy with other things.

I do hope Nystul is able to find time to fix any current bugs/compatibility issues that can be corrected here and with Enhanced Sky - these two mods are already core components of my DFU alpha setup!

really busy at the moment - as many of you may have realized I hardly find time to work on dfunity at the moment - I hope it will get better in a few weeks :/

No worries, Nystul - thanks for checking in, and I hope things free up for you!

Just noticed this mod is not on Nexus yet, that should change. Its the best. It will be top 5 very soon after you place it there. Please do so

I'd also requested a few months ago (viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1542&p=34632#p34632) info as to whether Nystul has plans to post this and his other mods (which are my most essential!) to Nexus, but I assume from his recent responses here that real life has just been extremely busy for him recently.

In the Abibon-Gora region, fast travel works just fine without Distant Terrain. But if Distant Terrain is activated, if you fast travel to the farthest south of the area...this happens.

You basically fall through the terrain and can't even interact with the area you fast traveled too, this is a rather major issue that needs to be fixed.

I have tried this without the Distant Terrain mod, it works fine, but once it's enabled it gets messed up.

Yeah, I just noticed this "falling under the world" bug as well, at the very southern part of the world map, if you fast travel to some of the sparse locations there, you will load in falling far below the walk-able terrain and be falling infinity unless you activate levitation. It's interesting, because the location is still there if you float up quite a while, and it works normally once you clip back through the mountains. After disabling this mod and fast traveling to the same place, there is no problem.

Also noticed if you put on super-speed and start heading toward the end of the map without fast traveling, it seems like the terrain started to stop loading after a point and you could fall right through these giant chunks of unloaded map squares.
