I don't remember harassment of sfan5 and I think he is an anime girl. Here is a photo of his face from github:

I've met sfan5 in real life. I can confirm this profile picture is accurate

I'm a bit confused about how this works - how would I for example, start a forum anew? Would I post this question here even or somewhere else? Here is my WIP mod forum: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=30291 - but I wish to rename it to "Dynamic Input-Held Eating" and remove all...

Unfortunately, translations for settings added by mods/games is not possible currently. In anticipation of this being supported, you could add setting titles and descriptions to your .tr files

Hello! I have a question or suggestion. Could you add water reflections as a shader directly in Minetest? Or can you only do this via a mod? Please give me a short answer. Thanks Hey, there's a modified version of Minetest with water reflections here: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=29887

stop reading initial properties from bare entity def - this makes sense, though entity code can be some of the most complex so we need a very clear transition path. Are there deprecation warnings in place? They should go in A.S.A.P. A word of caution: that one can lead to vicious bugs. I noticed th...

I've apparently been out of the loop for how to properly define initial object properties. It's been deprecated for a very long time to define initial properties outside of the initial_properties table. https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/9650 My first question is why does the initial_propert...

I do not know what the "`game.conf` name/id mess" is. I believe it goes back to a comment by Rubenwardy , where there's multiple names for the same thing. I couldn't find any reference to "game id" but as noted in current docs , title and name are two keys that mean the same thi...

You had "Disable bbcode" checked

Maybe this gives a little hope: New options for distributing iOS apps from alternative app marketplaces

This only applies to the EU, and Apple is maliciously complying - charging app devs $0.10 per install

When I try to click the "Browse" button while choosing fonts, the game closes itself.

What platform are you on? Where did you get Minetest from?

That’s neat! It’s a bit hidden right now and makes no sense yet, but once we can translate mods with modern translation workflows everything will start being better. Well, you can translate NodeCore, Piranesi, and Exile on Weblate. They convert to and from other formats to achieve this. For other p...

Maybe also add a field for authors to add a link to where people can translate the mod. So not only a Git link and a website link, but also a translation link. This is already supported as part of the recent translations work: https://rwdy.uk/rJknz.png There's also a page where you can find package...

As said, Multicraft doesn't use content.minetest.net. Please contact Multicraft for support (or switch to using Minetest on MacOS)

Assuming you're using Minetest and not Multicraft, then it should be visible and installable on mac

Multicraft uses a different content website so won't find things from the official Minetest ContentDB. Please contact Multicraft for Multicraft support, not us

Imagine Weblate would support that Minetest translations file format! How awesome would that be! Continuous translation built in with modern standard cooperative translation tools! Yeah I agree, support for platforms like Weblate is super important as they make it easier for translators to translat...

ContentDB now supports package translations! The title and short description of a package can now be translated into other languages. This is shown both on the web and inside Minetest (from v5.9+). https://rwdy.uk/imlGW.png ContentDB will read translation files (.tr) inside package zip files. To tr...

Minetest and ContentDB now support translating package titles and descriptions. See translating content meta - lua_api.md As a free benefit of this work, ContentDB now knows which languages a package supports and whether it has translation at all. Authors can also specify a "translation URL&quo...

Everything you wrote about requires transferring Minetest to another engine.

This is not correct, all those changes could be implemented in Minetest

Hi, locale/pep.de.tr is missing a textdomain comment. This is required by Minetest. Other locale files may be missing textdomains too

I do not yet know if the patch has been backported into Minetest 5.4.1 on Trisquel or 5.3.0 on Hyperbola yet. That's the risk of using incredibly outdated versions. I'd also suggest that you don't use a distro that doesn't monitor CVEs. 5.3.0 also has remote execution vulnerabilities, see the secur...

The source of this is https://github.com/minetest/minetest/se ... -pcjw-27cc

That page says:

Affected versions: <=5.5.1
Patched versions: 5.6.0

ContentDB doesn't modify .zip files that you upload. Here's one of the folders:

https://content.minetest.net/uploads/9fda7e8396.zip

Newer releases don't have the folders at all

There's an issue with how you're making the zip files

The zip file you uploaded contains empty folders. Minetest extracts files from .zip files, and won't create empty folders. If you add files to these folders (like you have in the latest git) it should work

Why doesn't the banner show that Minetest works in a web browser, too? Is it hidden because the web version too experimental? https://gitlab.com/rubenwardy/fosdem24/-/blob/main/rollup_banner/source_FOSDEM_Rollup-84x204.pdf?ref_type=heads https://minetest.dustlabs.io/ The web version is not official...

Reviewed this now, there's an untranslated line and an outdated chapter. See https://gitlab.com/rubenwardy/minetest_modding_book/-/merge_requests/121#note_1760953897 There's also quite a few mistakes with the markup, I've fixed those locally and will apply those fixes when merging. So I just need th...
