Re: How is this guy doing reflective water in Minetest?

You had given me the hint , at least that's how I understood it, that the server in particular must have set this reflection and other shaders. So it's not enough for the client to have that. Right? It is sufficient for the client to have it. I can connect with it to a server right now and use it. ...

Re: Minetest 5.8.0

Sounds good. Is it enough if the client runs on this version or does the server have to have it as well? It is important to remember the screenspace reflections version is still a work in progress. The client will always draw the reflections if you build that branch, there is no setting to turn it ...

I think you are after on_deactivate, plus a check for removal == true so it doesn't run when the mob is just getting unloaded with a mapblock.

Re: Minetest 5.8.0

thank you. but where can i find the right irrlichtmt version for this ?. There is a file in the source tree that tells you which version matches up - misc/irrlichtmt_tag.txt - in this case it says 1.9.0mt12. In 5.9.0, irrlichtMt will be bundled in with the Minetest source code, relieving the issue.

Texture packs can take a really long time to verify properly because there are so many individual textures. Plus package approvals aren't always waiting on the approval team but sometimes on the package author.

This is not easy to do, at least generically. Minetest has four formats for images: PNG, JPEG, BMP and TGA.

The effect is even worse if you're connecting to a server a long way away. You have to wait for at least a whole round trip plus Lua processing delay before keypresses will register. This means they become more like key holds. To launch a train in Advtrains from a client in Australia to a German ser...
