Update! Mechanics for equip-able armor is now done. Similar to the clothing system, players place armor items into the armor slots to equip them. These slots include armor for the head, face, body, arms, legs, and feet. Similar to minetest_game, armor sets are grouped by the material it's made from...

appreciate the input guys. moving forward, i'll do my best to ensure inventory and UI layout displays properly at 1280x720 resolution at the lowest, though prioritizing 1920x1080 as the default resolution i work toward first. so anyone playing on higher resolution than 1080p should not have any issu...

hey everyone. question for you all: what game window resolution do you play minetest on? like 1920x1080? or 1280x720? or lower? windowed for full screen? or some other resolution that's not 16:9 ratio? I've been currently using 1920x1080 for testing and for my demo videos, but understand i might ne...

getting a start on the leather armor. once this is done, i'll have a demo video showcasing the wood and leather armor in action. these would represent teir 1 of wood and leather armor. each armor set that a player can craft will be categorized by it's underlying material, like plant fiber, cloth, le...

once i release the demo and code, and if there's enough interest for my game, i wouldn't mind fellow modders helping me add content. at this time though, a lot more of the foundation still needs to be laid, along the lines of how i'd like this game to play.

since it's minetest, the community is free to mod my game in any way they wish. and i'll try to keep my code as easily extendable as possible to add extra craft items and such. i'd be interested to see what others come up with.

good points guys. thanks for sharing your thoughts. so i'd like to have survival story give players as much freedom to explore, survive, and build in their own ways, but i also want to maintain a coherent setting. the complete freedom of true sandbox games like gmod is great for replay-ability, but ...

Based on your game's name and clothing style(game) if you are adding up zombies then realistic riot gear is preferable but if you are thinking about adding magic elements then a fantasy full plate armor is recommended but if you are wanting to give players a fusion of science and magic like it is i...

i'm still deciding on whether i should take the armor design down a more modern style like riot gear and military armor where it's more compartmentalized? or follow the typical fantasy armor style, like full plate mail and leggings type of things. or maybe both and everything?

Looks like you're really polishing those core features. Good job adding those sounds too, feel like a lot of Minetest games are missing that kind of audio feedback. thanks. yes audio effects is extremely important for a more quality feel. in the near future i will need to spend an entire update jus...

Hey What is the bar in the photo

it's my magic wand for debugging the statbars. let's me directly modify the values at anytime. the tip of the wand has bands of colors that represent the different statbars. =)

Update while adding more hair types to the player setup window, i ended up making some big improvements to the interface. and also added a total of 11 hair styles to choose from. each customizable aspect of the player is now shown in its own tab, like for skin, hair, eyes, underwear, etc. players g...

nice! love seeing new and old game projects here in this community being worked on and updated. nothing wrong with staying close to the mc and minetest_game design either.. since nothing beats the open world and sandbox formula. the paintable node feature is cool i like it.

i can confirm no more crashing when exiting the game. thank you!

update: the core mechanics of the clothing system is added. as players craft or find clothing items, they can be equipped by placing them into the clothing slots. these slots include clothing types like eyewear, upper body, hands, lower body, feet, and neck. random color variations of clothing will...

the coding looks a bit too deep for me =), but pretty wild what you can do with typescript. does it let you do things with the engine that the lua api cannot do?

Btw could you also tell me the estimated date for this masterpiece's release final master release? maybe in year 2040 lol. i'm just working on this solo, and games like 7 days to die and project zomboid have been cooking since 2013 and they have a small team. if all goes well, a playable version of...

You know the models are pretty awesome compared to traditional ones. I am a player of mc bedrock, and remember that it had a lot of purchasable clothing and one of the clothing were boots that were quite realistic, your models remind me of that thing hey thanks. my kids first got me into playing mc...

update: the player clothing system is coming along. but, i spent too many days last week playing project zomboid.. had a nice long run with one character then made one mistake, got overwhelmed by a zombie horde, and rage quit. lol. anywho.. below are the details of my more important work. completed...

update: the basic player setup screen is done. will next be working on the following: - 2 more hair options for male and female model - clothing items and equip / unequip from inventory screen - a 'settings' tab to adjust customize colors like crafting icon highlight colors (@blockhead) - change in...

ah yes, i remember trying out survivalcraft many years ago. shooting down the birds from the sky for food was lots of fun actually lol. i quit playing since it seemed at that time it was no longer being updated, but looks like there's now a 2.3 version - so will have to check it out soon. like in ma...

Will there be a temperature/climate feature, so that you need warmer clothes in colder biomes or areas? yes, that is certainly planned. to avoid negative effects, cold biomes will require warmer clothing and hot biomes will require more cooling types of clothing. specific events that would alter th...

Hey btw will you enable an us to do custom clothing changes in game just for personal use clothing will be an important part of the game. when you spawn in the game the first time, you start out without clothes and only in your underwear. the underwear you'll be able to choose the color. then you c...

Hey were can I try this game? i haven't made it available for download yet. once some other features are complete, i will put it all on my github page. the original post above is now updated to list the features i'd like to have completed before having a 'play testable' version for everyone. i've c...

hey thanks blockhead. yea me and my bros have been playing pz the past couple months. love the amount of survival realism detail in there, but sometimes can get too intricate hehe. good point about the red and greens. i'll work in better contrast so that it's easier for ppl with color challenges. my...
