Minetest Forums

Obsidian Minetest Forum Save your eyes. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GreenXenith/obsidian-minetest-forum/master/screenshot.png I made this roughly 4 years ago because I was tired of not having a good dark theme for the forum. The original broke after the forum phpBB update, so I've finally got...

Hey, can we stop filling these kinds of threads with this garbage? Discord users don't go listing all of the reasons why IRC is outdated and unusable every time it's mentioned. Let people use whatever platform they want to use and let them live in peace. If you don't, you are part of the problem. An...

I guess it's that time again. I've finally updated this mod to include all of the Hometown-only features that I initially left out. Also I've eliminated all hard dependencies . Many of you should be excited for that. New features: Shrubberies, hats, peppermint nodes, gumdrops, nutcracker, Mrs Claus,...

K, I'm on iPad, so is there any way to load my skin onto it on iPad?

Controls are inside the canvas base. Tap/doubletap(?) the block to open the menu.

How doues this work? My current skin doues not shown the canvas and I can only find an empty paint pallete. To load your current skin, use the load button (manila folder, second button). The empty paint palette is only for custom palettes. To get the default palettes, rightclick with the paintbrush...

I get the impression that the part of the community that predominantly active on Discord really loves drama and jumps at every opportunity to have it, no matter if it's justified, relevant or truthful. From the screenshots I've seen at various occasions discussion there can get quite toxic too. Nop...

Discord to Minetest (Python) https://github.com/archfan7411/discordmt/ Discord to IRC to Minetest (NodeJS) https://github.com/GreenXenith/skynet (This will be the easiest to set up and use soon, without depending on IRC) Discord to Minetest (Go) https://github.com/Jordach/discorduroy Minetest to cha...

I don't like to partake in these controversial threads, but Same will happen to GitHub sooner or later. There is a decent chance that M$ accounts with be required for GitHub in the future No, it is not likely. GitHub would more likely find a loophole in the shareholder control or forfeit the organiz...

Last I exported B3d files I used this exporter, https://github.com/GreenXenith/io_scene_b3d From what I remember it exported every object in the scene, so objects I didn't want I just moved to another layer thing.(I forget what the layers are called in 2.8.2, collections maybe) There should be a ch...

you should be satisfied that this PR exists in the first place My intent was not to offend or to belittle your work, but you do not get to tell me whether or not I am satisfied with a feature. As a modder, I do not find it to have enough features to be useful (yet). Then it will be possible to crea...

I am rather excited for all of the formspec changes, I just wish they could happen sooner :D Having styling features for every element is very important, because having the default irrlicht grey gradient on any element seriously breaks the look of themed formspecs. I am glad you have thought of this...

The main reason to pick B3D over OBJ is because B3D supports rigged animations, but that isn't a concern here, so the only other reason to do so would be file size differences (which are negligible anyway). OBJ is a more widely-used format and has the "bonus" of being human-readable. I'm n...

Ah, right, I forgot the 16 multiplier (the floor/16 returns a mapblock position). I spent an hour and made a mapblock marker mod. 44loc that includes a toggle command. Also has two variants, but I've set it to the thin version in the attachment. Player pos 0, 16.5, 0: https://i.imgur.com/ws64qOs.png...

Using both the builtin crafting API and form? Probably cannot be done. You can either make your own crafting API to handle this, or you can make your own crafting form to handle it. Crafting API pros: You have full control over how everything works, it is easy to add the sanity functionality Craftin...

"Current player" would only apply to the CSM API. This modding is server-side, therefore there is no current player. There is also no "currently iterated player". Anyway, if you really care about per-player visibility, it has occurred to me that particles would also work. It woul...

1300 polygons is absurd for an entity like this. Just sayin'. That alignment operation should not be done very often, so it shouldn't affect performance much. It can also be simplified to {x = math.floor(pos.x / 16), y = math.floor(pos.y / 16), z = math.floor(pos.z / 16)} or vector.apply(pos, functi...

I am rather confused at this point, but I will take a shot at helping you anyway. First of all, the center of a Minetest node is on X + 0, Y + 0.5, Z + 0. There are various reasons for this, but it shouldn't matter all that much if you are doing things properly. From what it looks like, you are usin...

Entities are the optimal solution for this, as v-rob has already pointed out. WorldEdit and protector_redo both have similar region markers. Yes, everyone can see the entity, but that isn't a terribly huge issue. There was a PR to implement per-player entities at one point, I don't know what happene...

Your teleport solution is better, regardless. The reason you cannot arbitrarily change the solidity of a node at runtime is because nodes can only be registered on load. So to toggle the walkable key in a node would require two nodes, swapping based on some external input. This would not be very eff...

Finally, some properly-themed songs. Dawn: Yep, definitely sounds inspired by C418. Pretty nice :) Diamond Shining: Sounds nice, but feels a bit too cinematic for background music. At least, it definitely does not fit the style of Minetest Game. Might fit an RPG or something. (Also, why not "Sh...

Reminder that there is already a Minetest Discord server with almost 1000 members :)

It is possible to set the rotation angle based on the depth value:

I think the gaps appear because of fast faces.

Reminds me of the Minecraft Acid Interstate. I love it.

Server-Sent Client-Side Mods In Lua. Just because. This mod works by using a CSM counterpart in conjunction with mod channels. I don't recommend using this . It isn't particularly useful with the current client API, and it will also certainly break in the future. Also could be unstable. Server-Side...

sorry for resurrecting such an old thread but this in particular confuses me - I've never seen this mode with the minimap. Was it deprecated or does it require some other keystroke (combination) than F9? Thanks! I'm suspicious I might find this helpful underground. The correct key is F9 -- the xray...
