twoelk, thank you, you're most certainly brought order into this matter.

Is debugging MineTest with Visual Studio is possible? I mean, I have in mind that if I do copy all libraries into sources\bin and then copy game directory into sources then I will get something that looks like install directory that INSTALL is making, but a... is there any way I can debug the .exe t...

paramat, okay, thank you, I think I got it. But which of the mapgens is a newest one? Judging from github it's a mapgen_v5.cpp, which was added at Nov 9, 2014. But a whole countdown thing from v6 and v7 is a bit tricky to understand. So which one is it?

paramat, is there a particular reason for that?

have one more question on this topic. the point of generation algorithm is to generate exactly the same blocks in exact same chunk by demand, this also mean that order in which chunks are generated should not affect blocks that generated in specific chunks. Please, correct me if I'm wrong on this on...

qwertymine3, thank you! This seems to be a very informative article. It's already answered a few questions for me.

Okay, I get it about the code. Tell me then, is there any point to read MC code after MT code (map generation), just how different they are? besides MC lack of comments and variable names. I mean, the result look quite similiar.

We all know about minecraft decompiled sources, so called "Mod Coder Pack". So I want to ask, is MineTest map generation algorithms (v5, v6, v7) are based on decompiled Minecraft map generation algorithms or they are done from scratch?

Thanks everyone, it seem to work pretty well. :)

Tried to enable sound, if someone will follow my steps - you should move all files from "openal-soft-1.15.1\include\AL\" to "openal-soft-1.15.1\include\" or else you'll get an error about file that wasn't found.

Krock, thanks for your answer!
IRRLICHT_DLL - this is what I forgot to set, now INSTALL work without errors. :)

MineYoshi, thank you.
Without sound, changing CMake install file with Notepad and still getting error in the end of install, but... I make a working build of MineTest. hail to the pre-compiled libraries.
Maybe somebody knows what this INSTALL actually wants from me?

I dont know, wiki cleary says

zlib library (zlibwapi.lib and zlibwapi.dll from zlib125dll.zip)

but meanwhile I found MSVC pre-compiled libraries that, I suppose, contain everything I need to compile MineTest, so now I will tweak CMake around... I guess

This is sources,

zlibwapi.lib and zlibwapi.dll from zlib125dll.zip

so I believe zip should at least contain these

Nope :(
but thanks for trying

Hi, I was trying to compile MineTest, I follow the wiki just step by step, and then, suddenly, it's like zlib125dll.zip was eradicated from this universe. I have the cognitive dissonance even when I look at this situation: help.png So what should I do? Please help me. http://dev.minetest.net/Compili...
