Re: [Linux] Portable Minetest client and server as AppImages

Does anyone has more knowledge or a (short) description how to create a Minetest 32-bit AppImage!? Thanks ... Birgit PS: Is it possible to use Mods with that AppImage? for mods, sure you can, the way you'd normally do, by installing in the right directory (~/.minetest/mods for linux, under %appdata...

lighting changes shift the textures? (minor annoyance)

I first noticed it with mesecons button but I checked, if I disable everything and use the default torch, for example, it still happens... depending on angle it might be a very slight effect, or a bit more noticeable... I just wanted to mention it, other than the buttonpresses it won't probably be n...

Re: Should we add the PB&J pup back

I'm going to make the same suggestion I made on the server's Discord chat here as well. "I have an idea for the Nyan Cat thought - what if you reinstall it with your Own texture for the Nyan Cat itself - a HT icon.. something that is only found on HT and no other place.. or if others do "...

Re: Should we add the PB&J pup back

However do such items provide any meaningful experience to your average player? Will it still be "funny" months or years from now? Will it cheapen the presentation of your game? Minetest had already gotten away with this with Mese, likely because it is just ambiguous enough to sound like ...

Re: List of Possible Replacements for Lua formspecs

Re: [Linux] Portable Minetest client and server as AppImages

The development version creates this following error and crashes one second after starting up: I just upgraded my Linux Mint 17 to Linux Mint 17.3, but this AppImage still creates the same error. It shouldn't do that, because Linux Mint 17.3 is based on Ubuntu 14.04. I think Calinou is going to nee...

Re: PB&J Pup removed, how to preserve it in your worlds

You gonna do that? I think it would be nice xD well, I might try it if it's actually going to be in the game... but I think that anyone can do that, just change 4 self explanatory pieces of text(2 display names, 2 internal block names), add an alias(with the help of the wiki), tweaking the texture ...

Cool. Do I need both client and server for singleplayer game? AFAIK local server is needed for it. no, local server is included in the client(and you can even connect to it with another client), the "server build" is for when you want to run a full server, it has no graphical output and t...

Android GUI scale

Default scale looks ok, but cuts off edges quite a bit, advanced settings can't be used, because the "save" button is cut off and skyblock inventory for example,is practically unusable... manually editing the conf file to use gui_scale=0.5 makes everything work as expected, but main menu a...
