Minetest Forums

You should post issues on the rjm github page if some script doesn't work on both 2.7 and 3.

jocsamazon wrote:(I can't find a newer version compiled with msvc)

What are the official 0.4.14 releases compiled with? I can't get them to work with RaspberryJamMod at all. They include msvc*.dll which suggests its msvc.

To see the error message, run one of the scripts from a commandline:
python donut.py
for instance.

The version of the scripts in mcpipy included in the mod does not support python 3.

I updated some scripts, and added an pysanka.py script (requires Pillow for Python) that generates an Easter egg from any image. (More information http://www.instructables.com/id/Giant-E ... Minecraft/, though that's aimed at the Minecraft version.)

The /py command is only for Windows right now. I don't have Minetest on a Linux system (unless Android counts) and so it would be hard to get it to work on Linux. If you want a quick-and-dirty fix, you can try editing background_launch() in init.lua to read: function background_launch(window_identif...

0.17: Fix for /goto on Linux (and maybe Windows).

I posted a new version with an improved version of Conway's Game of Life. Run /py life while standing on a large level surface. A large stone fence will be drawn around you for the board. Place any blocks you'd like (in the same plane as the fence). Then hit the ground with a sword to start. (Left-c...

I just posted a new version with some bug fixes (mainly, missing depends.txt). This version will also work with a special Android build that I'm working on.

Just released 0.16: I reduced the number of moon:moonstoneXXX blocks in order to speed up initial media downloads if you want to run this on a server. Instead, I now dither the blocks. Hard to say what looks better. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arpruss/moon-mapgen-minetest/screenshots/screensho...

how on earth did you do that?

oh - you didn't

you did it on the moon!

:-)

Seriously, there is a ton of free public domain data available from NASA and USGS that makes it possible to do these things. My daughter suggests I do something like this for earth.

I also added the albedo variation to projection=sphere mode.



For the screenshot, I did land_node_meters = 15000 and projection = sphere in settings.conf.

Though at this moment doing /goto 0 180 seems to crash

Yeah, you caught the one point on the surface of the moon that was affected by that bug. Thanks for the catch. Fixed in 0.12.

I just released a new version that uses NASA moon reflectance data to vary the terrain stone from dark (e.g., /goto mare tranq) to very bright (e.g., /goto aristarchus).

0.11 released: - major bug fix: in previous versions the moon was rotated by 180 degrees so /goto worked wrong - /goto now supports many features other than craters; e.g., /goto apollo 11 or /goto mare tranquillitatis or /goto mons bradley - apparently seamless teleport-joining of near and farside i...

And I added a sphere mode, which makes a round moon. Just set projection = sphere in the config file. Remember, it's a really big sphere. If you set land_node_meters to 150, the moon is about 23000 nodes in diameter. I tried reversing gravity when on the underside, but jumping doesn't work unless yo...

I just posted a new version (0.09). It turns out that I had done land scaling wrong, which was why I had to put in the vertical exaggeration. The new version has as the default scale 150 meters per node, and the default vertical exaggeration factor of 1 (so no vertical exaggeration). If you load the...

Code: Select all

set_physics_override({
			gravity = 0 -- or 0.1/0.01
})

Yeah, but what one would really like for a round moon would be gravity pulling one to the center of it, no matter where one is.

I have seen some ppl do it! :D :D :D

You don't happen to have a link?

y r there edges? Shouldn't the moon be round? Or is it hard to make? Minetest/Minecraft worlds are flat. :-) So as I said in the initial post, the two hemispheres are flattened out. That said, I am working on a round mode. But I think that without changing the engine code, it won't be possible to h...

I fixed a bunch of /goto and /where bugs.

And I switched the projection from orthographic to equaldistance by default, which makes things look much less squashed near the edges.

Here's the south pole, nearside disc:

I'm surprised that the Earth is so small.. how come the Moon looks bigger from here than the Earth from there? It's not that small compared to the size of the player. That said, I read that there is a visual illusion whereby the brain magnifies the size of bright things against a dark background, m...

By the way, this is compatible with my Raspberry Jam Mod , so one can run python scripts against it. Here's what happens if you run /py render 1701d with both Moon Mapgen and Raspberry Jam Mod active, near the Abbe crater. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-b9nDPblHoEc/VhwCWZZztAI/AAAAAAAAaiE/M9b_cVwZchY/s64...

I released a new version which compresses the terrain data, reducing the disc-space needed from about 240 mb to about 65 mb.

I think I will eventually also make this compatible with ore generation, by letting a built-in mapgen run below the surface of the moon (maybe three nodes down).

Nice way to get TTS in Minetest! (Though you might want to use the insecure environment to make this work for users who have mod security activated.) If you want to interface Python code with Minetest, you might also consider using the Raspberry PI Minecraft API which is designed for Python-Minecraf...

Version 0.05: - added sky textures (generated with SpaceEngine; alas, this forces a non-commercial-only license on this component; you can always remove the textures, set the sky black and use the MIT license that everything else is under). I didn't try hard to align the textures with the compass di...
