It appears that this server is going to be down indefinitely. I'm not able to get ahold of a copy of the world. While you sit bored through this intermission, you should contribute to Mosstest.

Is this an error on the Minetest download or the Fedora download? If it's the latter you're asking in the wrong place.

*lurk* Even if it IS the OS's fault, Minetest should still handle it elegantly instead of leaving the user scratching their head.

I don't know whether to punch hex or shake his hand. He made it impossible for me to play on the uplink server, but did point out flaws in the system. I do wish he'd simply warned ahead of time and made the vulnerability public so we could fix it rather than just DOSing, but, can't have an omlette ...

After thinking the situation over for some time, I feel as if the proper thing for me to do as the WiFI operator is to apologize for the damage and technical issues as a result of the attack. However, as I am NOT the originator, I do NOT take any moral obligation/responsibility for this attack. Agai...

Recent DoS attacks on Minetest servers

Sadly, there was a series of DoS/flood attacks on Minetest servers. I have found that this was caused by hexafraction, using my public WiFi. This service has since been taken down. While the originating IPs do correspond to the IPs I use(plural as dynamic), I cannot, and will not take responsibility...

Pavel_S created wonderful models for the simple_mobs mod. I am hoping that he can create player models for Minetest to give the game more variety and uniqueness (the current player model looks like it came from Minecraft, has no neck, and has arms that are the same size as the legs.) Rarkenin might...

The general idea about this is that we shouldn't need this because MT is an open source project. Maintaining many APIs is a pain, and compiling C++ modules for all supported platforms simply sucks. What disappoints me is how we can't communicate our intent. People with features, people with time an...

Honestly, I'm tired of coming onto the forums/IRC/etc and seeing this argument happening. In my (humble and probably unimportant) opinion, we need a method to dynamically load a set of C++-side mods that can make powerful changes outside the API. These would need to be installed client-side if need ...

To the server operator: Set up your NAT so you don't need Hamachi. I'm having trouble believing that your connection is the culprit. You probably did something wrong.

To the people trying to enter: Use Hamachi for now, and/or ask the server operator to get it work work without Hamachi.
