Topic: Mod section information
Here you can ask questions about modding and post your mods.
Be careful when running other people's mods. Somebody could make a mod that deletes all your files.
However, connecting to a server which runs mods is always completely safe for the client. (No guarantees, though.)
Also, please note that the modding API is still evolving and mods will break from time to time. When 0.4 is released, the API will be kept more stable.
The developers of Minetest and maintainers of this website are *not* responsible for the downloadable mods in here. Moderators will remove illegal content (copyright or otherwise) when asked to.
Mod makers:
Make sure to include downloads for multiple previous versions of your mods. It will help in case of compatibility problems and such.
Why does the main minetest 0.4 distribution have so few mods/content?
The short answer: First the modding API will be developed to be good (there are a few key areas that will still need improvement). Then a stable release will be done and celeron55 will figure out what kind of stuff he wants to add to the main game. It can take up to until the summer of 2012, but will likely be sorted out earlier than that.
