Re: [survey results] Features people want the most + MTG thoughts

... Playeranim implemented by default * What you mean? Player models are animatable. There's just no default player model. But this makes sense, given the nature of MT. We can't expect all games to use the same blocky 3D player model. ... Hmm? Are you saying that we might create a model in a progra...

Re: What's the best material for making a space station?

From the creative point of view, no material is the best: it always depends on how you use it. The shape can very effectively help, but some colors seem to belong more than others. Probably, the easiest to obtain a sci-fi effect is bakedclay:white, that has - as a plus - the fact that provides stair...

In my opinion, this kind of volumes might be great to create icebergs and some volcanic landscapes.

Re: Increase Render Distance?

The settings to look at that definitely improved my experience were the following:
  • active_block_range
    active_object_send_range_blocks
    max_block_send_distance
    block_send_optimize_distance
As suggested by Sfan5 here and here.

Re: Promoting Minetest

I think promotion and advertisement is overrated. Having a moderate sized good community, as we do, is far better than a huge and therefore unpleasant community, like Minecraft. The mistake is starting from the assumption that more users is automatically better. Definitely. I totally agree. Who car...

I have always wanted to say it: THANK YOU!
Linking books are so great that you should make them available as a mod, so that others might be able to simply add them to their maps, maybe from contentdb.
Again: thank you!

I have been playing with your mod for quite a while and very wonderful and magic things can be done with it!

For Arch you need nothing special because the system isn't that heavy modified. Just make sure you have the needed dependencies installed. cmake tells you what's missing. git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git cd minetest git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetes...

Re: [Mod] MultiHome [multihome]

I am on MT 04.17.1 and when I set the multihome.max setting in minetest.conf to have up to 10 homes an error has occurred.

After line 5

Code: Select all

local max    = minetest.setting_get("multihome.max") or 5
I solved it by just adding a quick fix

Code: Select all

max = tonumber(max)
