Update: I added snow and fixed the placement of beds. Here is a video of the snow:

It's extremely annoying :(

If anyone is thinking about making music for their mod/game I found this freeware VST plugin which works great with the LMMS Vestige plugin!! http://99sounds.org/vst-plugins/ It's freeware :D

Another huge update! Stairs, slabs, walls, fences, and glass are added in :D

Here's a video on it:

The next mob will be an Exploder. A mob which follows you using pathfinding then explodes. This sounds a lot like a creeper from MineCraft :D You might be right :D The next mob will be an Exploder. A mob which follows you using pathfinding then explodes. This sounds a lot like a creeper from MineCr...

I rewrote the pig mob, the improvements are as follows: Better code stability Hostility (punch it and it will chase you and punch you, if you don't go near it for 20 seconds it won't be hostile anymore) Better movement Better head code, uses actual radians instead of degrees Can look all the way up ...

What makes a mob good? Quality, wise. Is it: The way it moves? What it does? The way it acts around players? How light weight it is? The loot it drops? The way it interacts with the world? What mobs would people like to see in the game? Should they be difficult to deal with or dumb and easy to kill?...

That's so cool! Nice job Wuzzy!

Someone in the IRC asked if there was a cron equivalent for minetest. Specifically to clear objects every 24 hours, so I wrote a mini mod to do it: License: MIT

This mod adds scary noises to caves when you're mining! Part of my Crafter game, but I just stripped out the player mod and packed it up so anyone can use it in Minetest Game. Player has to be below 0 and equal to or below light level 13. If they're next to a mineshaft which goes directly up and exp...

I have started creating Music for the game. Here is version one: sounds.zip You simply unzip the file and put the sounds folder in your Minetest directory. When you start the game it will have the menu music playing. Here is a video of the menu music: https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?mod...

hope 2 c more features will be added!

keep up the good work !!

which version of minetest do this game support?

Thank you! And:

Sfan5 Latest Build: viewtopic.php?f=42&t=1523
Specifically, latest github in general. But this is what I program the game in.

Yet another update for today: The prototype for bows are in the game!

Gotta make the arrows stick in whatever they hit, including mobs and players..somehow!

I put a prototype of a gun into the game, it has smoke trails and creates bullet holes. You can also shoot mobs with it.
Also, the pigs are very, very aggressive

It's great how smooth the game plays compared to other MT games I've tried. I fiddled with the stepheight to get automatic climbing by default (though without speed penalty) and it was quite enjoyable. Thanks Texmex! If you like that, check this out. The pig will look at you when it's walking aroun...

I have this mobs mod which spawns the body then the head spawns and becomes attached. The head becomes the self.child of the body. The body then controls the rotation of the head using the set_attach code. The problem is I cannot for the life of me figure out how to calculate the roll in this functi...

Hey Wuzzy I modified the diamond texture in GIMP:
Thought you'd like it!

Minecarts now work properly! If you ride them, they go at full speed.

Update: Cheat mode is now implemented https://youtu.be/N8WRL62JDsk

Let's give it a try!

vector.apply(v, math.abs) but ok. Well I see a lot of people saying this is redundant with the vector.apply function, but, as they say that, we also have: function vector.floor(v) return { x = math.floor(v.x), y = math.floor(v.y), z = math.floor(v.z) } end function vector.round(v) return { x = math...

I just decided to make a video on it: https://youtu.be/2GOsXSeNgQw

This can be actually done even easier by using the maximum norm: function vector.maxnorm(v) return math.max(math.abs(v.x), math.max(math.abs(v.y), math.abs(v.z))) end Then it reduces to: norm = vector.maxnorm(vector.multiply(vector.subtract(pos, pos2), {x=2, y=0, z=2})) if norm < 1 then Yes that is...

I can't find where the vector library is stored in the game engine Right here: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/builtin/common/vector.lua I think, you confused that with the function vector.length. What OP says is not any kind of norm. It only makes all coordinates positive. This ca...

Well let me start off with my old favorite game: Minecraft. What I associate with Minecraft is that: Beta 1.3 was 50MB Was closed sourced Took 10-30 seconds to load Was heavy Ran like poop on my old computer Had an extremely difficult to understand external user-made api which was technically illega...
