We present modified Wang-Landau algorithm for models with continuous degrees of freedom. We demonstrate this algorithm with the calculation of the joint density of states $g(M,E)$ of ferromagnet Heisenberg models. The joint density of states contains more information than the density of states of a single variable--energy, but is also much more time-consuming to calculate. We discuss the strategies to perform this calculation efficiently for models with several thousand degrees of freedom, much larger than other continuous models studied previously with the Wang-Landau algorithm.
