Minetest Forums

Gah, i wish i could be of more help, sorry. Best wishes for some resolution.

I do not know what the qa-block is. (Quality assurance?) I have no other active mods external to the game. Chat log level is error. (if you add 'action', to the minetest.log statement, it doesn't display in chat)

Not important if no one else experiences this, i merely find it curious.

OK, from the get here, you have errors which look like the application does not have permission to read/write to files in your /TEST directory at the very least, and possibly further up the directory tree. Right-click on the minetest.exe file, select Properties, and make sure there isn't a warning s...

Brick armor! :D I had seen that there were some funky possibilities for armor, but brick is highly amusing. Yes, armor has encumbrance factors, i rather imagine brick would rate highly in that regard. +1 for brick armor, clever. :) P.S. there is some kind of crazy waffle + nyancat armor thing... Edi...

Thank you bell07, i am sure Duvalon and son will appreciate it! :)

Are you sure it is not caused by playeranim mod? This is my first suspect I am sure of nothing. I only know that removing multiskin_model "fixes" the odd display. Playeranim would have been my next test. I did not continue checking. But i could neither say what the cause is, nor why Duvalon's child...

Anyone else can reproduce this? Yes, and it's positively hilarious. I also get the player head facing backward, and a lot of z-fighting with the player skin. Any idea where I could start to debug this? I generally start with disabling mods. Create an extra folder in the game's root folder and move ...

WMI: No, that's Windows Management Instrumentation. Ignore it. What you would be looking for is something (warning, error) happening roughly the exact same second in Applications or System Logs. Clearly you do not find any, so that's OK. Just to confirm: you meant Minetest's source files or C++ sour...

Error log: If there are no system or application warnings prior to this, the event log is unhelpful to me (someone else may gain further insight) as the event 1000 error is exactly what the dialog box said. SFC is completely not CHKDSK. That's for drive errors. SFC is a Windows system self-diagnosti...

Does discontinuity look like that? :)

That's just normal, lol. :D

By the way, I hate jungletrees. If it wasn't a medieval game, I would have added napalm just to get rid of them. I was thinking about this the day after you mentioned it, and it seems like a lovely idea - one can start a spreading fire anyway - but for me it would only quadruple down on the insane ...

I hadn't thought anything you have written sounds rude at all. It seems you are merely trying to fix a problem. :) Yes, MSVC or similar is a common abbreviation for Microsoft Visual C++. You may also see MFC (Microsoft Foundation Classes) for Visual C++. Downloadable runtime installers usually have ...

the event logs may provide more information than the dialog box. there is SFC /scannow, or maybe reinstalling the relevant MSVC runtime version. sometimes runtime errors are caused just by Windows deciding an application should be using some other runtime version than the one actually required. just...

So here's a thing i don't understand. :D I don't use redstone much (or mesecons, technic, etc.), but i do occasionally like to disable hoppers with a redstone torch. It seems like the only way power is transmitted is through nodes placed by mapgen. No matter how i place a node or torch, it won't wor...

I... do not know what you experienced. Maybe you could check old worlds for mapgen (and any changed settings) and seed? Honestly, maps look the same to me whether mcl classic superflat setting is used or not. you should be able to find what you were using in the past, so you can have your desired te...

I bet if you walk away for a long time and come back, your caverns will be generated and your game will be working. I decided to try this just for giggles. 20.75h and counting on an idle machine. :D Anyway, i noticed some errors in the log so i opened a game again to check. I then re-downloaded fro...

I'll see about Cave Realms /Lite and the other suggestion i had received which was to use the prior version of dfcaverns without the newer overgeneration code. It may take a while to really check these out, but certainly easy enough to report if any render older/weaker machines unresponsive at -50 o...

Well, that entirely makes sense. I am, however, nowhere near the df content depths as i have seen described, (-50, -100) and the problem yet persists at the surface if i can manage to get back. Anything heavy could certainly overload this system, though, and if generation is yet occurring, i don't s...

I have no issues with 3.1.2 no_df_caverns branch so far. Been to y - 240 and spent quality time mining, returned to surface. So, thus far: MTG and HQ with dfcaverns break, HQ with dfcaverns removed by me, or from your new branch, does not break. Recipes' toasters - (and other crafguide oddities): Su...

I have just posted a report to the dfcaverns thread.
viewtopic.php?p=377423#p377423

I will certainly test your no_df_caverns branch. You are more than welcome. Thanks for all the work you do on your mods and game!

This mod breaks games and the engine since some point. First experienced in Hamlet's Quest (3.0.0, 3.1.x), MT 5.20 & 5.30. Now tested with plain MTG on 5.30. After digging to some depth, usually right around y -50, but sometimes around y -110, the game engine half-dies. It might actually take some t...

Edited. I thought 3.1.2 fixed the softlock / you-are-playing-a-game-but-not-really problem when going below y -50-ish. It turns out i had only been as low as y -106. Testing again with the same new world and an old one, the issue did not occur until -110 and -114. On the plus side, one can find copp...

The default was flat? I don't know if GUI and CLI do it different somehow, but usually the default, if there aren't disallowed mapgen settings conflicting, is the last mapgen used. Also, superflat setting is not the same as flat mapgen. You would have to tweak flat mapgen anyway unless you want a wo...

Note: this is for anyone who might find the information useful - it isn't just for unloading potential bug reports on Hamlet. :) Please excuse my wall of text if it is unhelpful. It is also a bit anachronistic - i was going back and retesting while writing, so things were added, and i didn't re-edit...
