Minetest Forums

Was player "ooo" (aka sam12 according to one of his friends) banned? When i went online to record him (so he'd be banned faster) i couldn't find him, and when i asked around noone else had seen him. I don't think so. We need more time for gathering strong evidence. Your (lack of) patience...

What exactly do I need to do to update on Linux minetest? I use Linux → Ubuntu sudo add-apt-repository ppa:minetestdevs/stable sudo apt update sudo apt install minetest it must be 18.04 or older if you do not have Minetest 0.4.17.1; based on this This is inaccurate and unrelated. 18.04 is the lates...

Or use the function meant for it minetest.close_formspec(playername, formname)

Is this what would be called a humility (unbeatable) box? The exit door won't open. This is Box 304 (the Wallace And Gromit one.)

Gosh this was an amazing box. Very difficult, yes. But doable.
MicrosoftXP has some wonderful creations.

Please use math.pi instead of 3.1415.

I'm certainly interesting in what you intend to do about reloading. I'm personally a bit scared. There are numerous issues, even if it is possible to get working. Mods depend on loading behaviour, it's not something that can really be changed without breaking a ton of things. Not saying I don't wan...

As far as I am aware, Technic somehow does something like this. I have tested the cables and found that you do not need the power source nor cable to be loaded in order to power things. I don't know how the system works because I haven't looked :P

Just to be clear, the server is by no means up.

Then that's just the way it is. [...] Then why did you ask for opinions. Plus, it's the right length. You can also look at other intros. Then you notice that all the other intros are just a name thrown around. Yes, and those intros aren't very good either. Sorry I took one of youtube but I'm too di...

You may be speaking about a mod that is install on the server you play (looking at your previous posts, I guess it's Hometown) I don't.. think so? In fact I cant find any "gum" mod. [edit] Scratch that, apparently it exists on GitHub https://github.com/Lucas18a3/gum . Unless they meant &q...

not these "canyons" with water Hate to break it to ya, those are the only rivers you get :) I meant actual rivers (the ones containing river water) River water ultimately serves no purpose at this point in time, unless it is used in the Valleys mapgen, but I dont think it is [edit]: appar...

I personally prefer MIT. I like to see it as a "Do whatever you want, credit might be nice". I use it for both code and media, which I know isn't exactly the correct way to do it, but it works I suppose. Does that mean that someone creating a derived from your MIT-licensed work doesn't ne...

I find MIT scarrier because that "substantial portion of the software" bit. [spoilercontent] They don't explain ANYWHERE what a "substantial portion of the software" is supposed to be. 50% of the lines? [/spoilercontent] You could Google it. First result . An excerpt from the ac...

Why would you want to do it? Numerous reasons. How does one create an folder directory from lua. I tried the os.execute("mkdir " .. dirname) method but it did not work for me. Minetest can only create folders inside the mod itself and in the worldfolder. Use minetest.mkdir(path) ....

for the 0.3.14 its the version of minetest i run

The modding api didn't exist in 0.3.x, so you must mean 0.4.14? Either way, the latest version is 0.4.17.1, I suggest you upgrade :)

That was just a Cycles material I made (I didn't save the file so I don't have the node setup any more, but I can recreate it if you wish).

While I think it would be better to model it curved in the first place, you can still deform it. Instead of using a curve, I've used a "Simple Deform" modifier on the chair back, deformed to the chair seat (see `angle` value as well). https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/HJng9Gp.png I then applied t...

^ if you use an installed version which is not run in place. Isn't that the default for most users? I associate run in place with dev versions only. All of my Minetest builds are run in place.

Minetest 5.0 also includes auto-forward.

Like 12Me12, I am uncertain this is the best way to accomplish whatever it is you are doing. However, I will take a stab at it. Assuming you must use a string formatted as "foo.bar.baz" to access table position foo.bar.baz, you could go about it with something like this: local str = "...

Code: Select all

minetest.override_item("default:chest",{
  blahblah = blahblahblah,
})

Note, this only works on startup - you can't change the node defs during runtime.

It's October! New stuff!

Update 2.1

• Added pink dinosaur, dark unicorn, pumpkin monster, harry potter, and totoro costumes
• Improve API
• Glow-in-the-dark Skeleton now glows in the dark if using 5.0+
• See change log in first post

thaumcraft 6 Because I love Thaumcraft so much, I am planning (already have some stuff) Thaumcraft 5 for Minetest. Because I personally dont like update 6. But like others have said, a converter will never happen. That's just not how it works. Most epic mods in Minecraft work because Minecraft does...

I have a really nice box in the works and plenty of other ideas to make, but I am too busy working on other things. Hopefully I will be able to return to making boxes soon.
