Minetest Forums

More Blocks 1.1.0 has just been tagged (and should be stable for gameplay, as well as distribution packaging). If there are any problems, feel free to create an issue on GitHub :)

Games should be ratable (5 star rating as usual on most websites) and ranked by rating. Same with mods. I'm not sure if that's a good idea… :) https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/star_ratings.png These days, websites tend to prefer upvote/downvote systems, as these are harder to exploit. Based on these vo...

As for the minetest engine This is what is installed (Arch linux) community/minetest 0.4.16-2 [installed] Multiplayer infinite-world block sandbox game community/minetest-common 0.4.16-2 [installed] Common data files for minetest and minetest-server How do I check the version of minetest engine? Is...

Tin was added to minetest_game in 0.4.16, and More Ores will not register it if it's detected in minetest_game.

Make sure both your Minetest engine and minetest_game are up-to-date (0.4.16 or 0.5.0-dev, but the latter cannot play on 0.4.16 servers, and most servers are on 0.4.16 right now).

One thing I'm actually hoping for in 0.5 or later versions is smoother player movement in multiplayer. It looks kinda janky at times, and is quite annoying if you're in a PvP situation or are just trying to keep track of where a friend is. I've seen it in lots of servers, so I'm not sure if it's a ...

christoferlevich wrote:Is there a reason that this isn't the default in minetest already?

On non-PvP servers, player collision can be problematic since a single player would be able to block small, narrow tunnels for everyone else.

Just so you know, this is a bug caused in very old versions of Minetest when using Irrlicht 1.8 or later. Linking these Minetest versions to Irrlicht 1.7 instead should solve it.

Since each node has its individual texture file(s), it is possible to mix resolutions just fine. Non-power-of-two resolutions may be an issue on very old hardware, but any dedicated graphics card since 2007 should provide support for them.

Can I play mt at 4K if I have 4K monitor? Yes, but the HUD will probably look tiny, you would have to adjust font sizes using the font_size and mono_font_size settings in minetest.conf. Note that if you do this, some menus will look broken (like the key change menu), and there is no fix yet for this.

Not only it is not open source, it looks like it targets Direct3D-based games, which is a no-go for us. We can also do better than injection, since Minetest's full source code is available.

For me the serverversion don't work on my server (16.04) but at home it works. It always says "Permission denied". What can I do? AppImages are made mostly for desktops, and I haven't really tested them on servers. The reason the server AppImage might not work out of the box in a server e...

Does the container have access to the "host" filesystem or is it independent from it? By default, no sandboxing is performed, but you can optionally use Firejail to run an AppImage sandboxed. Update I just updated the AppImages for 0.4.16 and latest Git master. These have been tested on U...

Good work. Now we need a Docker container, a file for Kubernetes, an rkt container, a Panamax app, and some more of the multiple standards+1 softwares that circumvent the package manager to install software using an own package manager. :D This is one of the reasons I like AppImage – it's actually ...

Sergey wrote:What can you say about FLATPAK technology?
How AppImage and FLATPAK differ?

AppImage is probably easier to use for end users, at least right now – you can use it without root, it works even on old distributions and no runtime is needed (unlike Flatpak). Just make it executable and run it.

It looks like that mod has been removed, but I don't remember why.

What FOV corresponds to normal human sight? There is no "one size fits all" value, really. It depends on your display's aspect ratio (mostly if using horizontal FOV, and Minetest uses vertical FOV just like Minecraft), the distance you are from the display (which is why most console games...

Is the download link purposedly left to your repository?? xD The download link is https://github.com/Calinou/moreblocks/archive/master.zip Shouldn't it be https://github.com/minetest-mods/moreblocks/archive/master.zip ?? I fixed it, but it appears there was a redirect anyway, so it wasn't a big pro...

Modern Hippie wrote:Is it no longer available to download this texture pack?
Looks like the download link is broken.. :/

Fixed, see first post of this topic for updated download link. Note that I'm not maintaining this texture pack anymore, it will miss many textures that were added since 2014.

Can I convert texturepacks on Linux without Minecraft? No, if it's a third-party resource pack, you can do the conversion yourself (or write/find a script that does part of it for you). You do need a copy of Minecraft to convert the default resource pack though. You can do either of these just fine...

burli wrote:Like this TP, but I miss grass, wheat, straw, diamond stuff and some other things. Are they not supported by Minetest?

I don't really have time to maintain it anymore, so it doesn't contain the new nodes added to Minetest 0.4.15.

I really want to add some customizations to my minetest because I don't have much experience with C++. This script won't work on Debian. I've seen things that work, but nothing yet that works that I can also change the source code and recompile. I think it has to do with there being missing librari...

You can't run the latest minetest_game with Minetest 0.4.14. You can get minetest_game for 0.4.14 here: https://github.com/minetest/minetest_ga ... 0.4.14.zip

I switched from Ubuntu 16.04 to the latest Debian testing today, and tried different ways to install Minetest with git. I've done it before just fine with Ubuntu. Here is what I got each time: The build-essential package should normally always install GCC (which lets you compile C/C++ code). Altern...

Ubuntu 16.10 has upgraded to libpng16 instead of libpng12, you should both compile and run using that version.

Oui et y a aussi tous les liens qui repointent vers les page en anglais comme pas exemple sur la page "http://wiki.minetest.net/Leaves/fr" où le lien "< Leaves" ramène sur "http://wiki.minetest.net/Leaves". Ca ne devrait pas plutôt pointer sur la page des blocs vu que ...
