FreeGamers is drafting and planning to release a holiday pack for independence day. We currently have a thread about it in our forum.

That's nice, how about you post on that thread instead?

If finding seed that gives a nice spawn location is the issue then Amidst-for-Minetest is useful for quickly previewing maps https://github.com/Treer/Amidst-for-Minetest I'm suprised it's hasn't been mentioned already.

Region files can be converted in parallel, actually since region files are independent of each other you could use multiple machines to do the conversion and merge the outputted map databases. Might be losing a bit of the "ease of use" in that case though :) Signs yes, I forgot to mention those. The...

It seems that there has been an increase in interest in writing minecraft map to minetest world converters of late, possibly spurred on by the fact that de facto converter mcimport cant convert maps made with the latest versions of minecraft (version 1.14.4+). Since I am working on an (unreleased) ...

I appreciate the attention to keeping a solution going to solve this maintenance problem. Please do make a *new* forum thread for your specific application so that the discussion can be focused and on topic. I agree, I have gone off topic for this thread. I could just run mcimport in Jython using m...

Ah, I see. It sounds like it's really about finding a mature library that can parse as many different minecraft world versions as possible. Oh, cool! Java isn't my favourite language, but it's probably worth waiting to check your port out first before writing my own (if you open source it when you'...

Currently I'm aware of these 2 minecraft → minetest importers: - https://github.com/minetest-tools/mcimport/ - https://github.com/jonajames/mc2mt Neither of them seem to particularly fast or stable. mcimport does appear to be able to convert some worlds, but appears to crash on others. mc2mt crashe...

Working now, needed to use the latest codebase not the latest stable release to get the mod to work.

Still no karts:



As I said I'm sure the problem is at my end - could someone else who has tried this mod comment?

I used the version linked at the start of this thread

Yes I had for some reason not installed moreblocks! I've now done that and the karts are still not present.

Downloaded map and installed into worlds directory on Minetest 5.2.0 stable:



Have basic_macines and basic_materials activated. Have not had a chance look into what is wrong. Probably something at my end - will look into it tomorrow.

Does not seem to work for MC 1.14.4 worlds: Interesting, MC 1.14.4 is storing biome data in 256 long integers instead of the 256 integers that would be expected in maps from that period, that's possibly the cause of the issue. I'd not seen this documented anywhere so it seems you may be the first t...

They are not! The param2 value seems to be kinda random and changes from one tree to another and sometimes even in the same tree. Maybe I made an error in writing the block format to the database, but I don't know how to debug it inside the game. And if a mistake was made in writing the zipped bloc...

ooh lots of bicycle stands and a long metal bench. Looks cool :-) It's a smart city indeed... I tried mcimport (github.com/minetest-tools/mcimport) wich seemed to work fine for maps before 1.5, but the format then changed. I don't think the parameter interpretation is (just) the problem: for many b...

Looking forward using this as it be very useful for testing the output of a few little tools I am developing. Just curious if you fell into the trap trying to calculate a mapblocks coordinates independently of each other using bitwise shifting. I wasted more time than I care to admit on that one! I ...

I watched your video about radio, when you said you were about to check the CB frequencies I thought "this wont go well" and I was not disappointed! It was the literal definition of "moving swiftly on" :)

Hmmm dictionary.com also seems to think that octopi is a correct plural for octopus.

Just to nitpick a little - there is no year 0 in the modern calendar so the first year started 1st Jan 1. Which means that 2020 is the final year of the decade not the first year :)

I have been writing a few map related tools lately, I would be very interested in having a copy of your corrupted map if possible.

No bad mobs are spawning on new sections of the map, some can still be found in caves where the MapBlocks were generated a few days ago. Also I'm starting to think no lava spawns on the map at all, I usually would have found some by now. As for mods, any chance you can add trampoline from x-decor, I...

Looks like papyrus and melon may not be spawning on the map, I've traveled 6k from spawn and found neither. I'm not the only one who has looked and come up empty handed. thats strange; the world is a copy of the demo server, so i do only know that v7 is used, maybe a little change of the map genera...
