Announcement (for OldCoder; he said it on his server and asked me to forward it): OldCoders worlds may be down for 2 days. The OldCoder Minetest worlds may be down for 1 to 2 days starting tonight or soon for a move. This will happen again in a week or two. The physical server is moving. So the wor...

Currently, I am an admin (nick: SAFR). The server is up, although connection problems may still remain. Ideas on the table include copying good builds from this server (and perhaps a few others) to this map or another map (more likely). Whether this map will be running v6 or v7 mapgen is not yet dec...

I recall one mod that dealt damage to players that dug protected nodes. It wouldn't completely protect the inside, but with a high enough damage setting, players would die upon entry.

That bookcase glitch looks fun...I smell secret passages!

You're not the first one to be annoyed by this "feature". I've complained about that already, but nobody changed it yet. In order to fix your own version, edit src/game.cpp and remove some lines around line 908. Btw, the pillaring up is not the main problem (that's usually only needed for...

This workaround is not acceptable for servers. It is a 'fix' that doesn't actually solve the problem (I can still skillfully place a block on, say, the ceiling overhead, and look through it and through walls). What's more is that it breaks/severely hampers what was once a crucial construction strate...

Prevented placing node when player would be inside new node (BlockMen) I know this has been addressed in a separate topic, but now that 0.4.10 is out I thought I'd address the change made in the thread for it. How does one revert to the previous functionality; i.e. do not prevent node placement? Is...

I'm sure Vazon can explain it better himself, but it seems we're still running into a Media problem, in that it takes an eternity to actually download (the first time, anyhow). Until that gets fixed, here's what I recommend: Instead of the stable 4.9 download, use the unstable 4.9-dev download. The ...

Just so's you know, I got this a few minutes ago: 20:14:57: INFO[main]: Creating client 20:14:57: INFO[main]: Connecting to server at 178.175.138.233:30012 20:14:57: INFO[main]: Client packetcounter (20): 20:14:57: INFO[main]: Client::peerAdded(): peer->id=1 20:14:58: VERBOSE[ConnectionSend]: con(11...

But if you did, you could just jump out of it immediately. It makes node placement incredibly obnoxious and at the very least I'd like to know how to turn it off at the source rather than finding a workaround (noclip)

Don't know if this is a "feature" of 4.9 dev or not, but it's a bug in my book. Very much not happy with it, wondering how to disable it if possible. I used to be able to place nodes in the same space I occupy, which I admit makes little real-world-physics sense but is incredibly useful an...

^seconded.
What's new other than textures?
I've also found the need for extra-large chests with an inventory space of, say, 16*8 or so. As a craft, perhaps 4 locked chests at each corner, a cross of steel_ingots between them?

fixed. also, both wheels must be replaced, so added that in.

this one? https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=9277&p=141271 It relies on three levels of gears (steel, gold, diamond). I can add compatibility by including an optional steel gear craft -- something like local use_factory = minetest.get_modpath("factory") at the beginning, and if...

Cool, cool. For the past few days, I've been trying to connect, but it stops loading once the progress bar hits "Media" - I occasionally hear some outdoorsy ambient sounds, which cut out. Running in terminal, I see Loaded mesh: 3d_armor_character.x Could not open file of texture: character...

You solved the double chat? where can I pick up this code fix?

I've seen a few 'craft component' type mods around, but most use steel as the primary ore of choice and aren't based off of the classic Renaissance simple machines. This mod adds a few craft items that are all copper-based. So far there are the 6 primary simple machines (Lever, Wheel and Axle, Incli...

Next on my agenda is to create two pairs of boots. Assuming I set the default player physics to "sneak_glitch = false", the first pair should override that and set it to true when equipped. The second pair should set the player's default speed multiplier to 2 when equipped. No clue how to ...

This sounds like a mod or version conflict somewhere, are you using this with something other than minetest_game, if so then it may not have a compatible version of player.lua Custom textures should be fine as long as you followed the naming convention, besides they would either work or not, they w...

Cool. What did you do to change the fast priv speed? Not exactly relevant to the server, but relevant to the previous question: Is there a way to have multiple levels of fast? For example, a "run" priv that lets people move 2x as quickly, and a "fast" priv that lets people move 5...

as I had recalled. Thanks Vazon and stu! followup Q: I put on some armor and it did show up on the player model. when I went to change it, it disappeared and wouldn't show, no matter what armor I put on. If it's of any concern, I did create my own armor (essentially registering a new set of textures...

Is there any way to get this to work with Unified Inventory instead of Inventory++?

What is the maximum stack_max? I read it was over 50000 but I've tried 50000 and 40000, which don't work, and 25000 does.

Could this be rewritten as a chat command (perhaps "/personal_texture") that applies the skin later?
I'm trying to allow specific skins for certain players while incorporating Zeg9's database.
