This mod seems to be partly broken with the latest stable release of minetest (0.4.5)

Skins are being overrided by the default. I am guessing update_player_visuals() from default/player.lua is being called after this mod loads.

You could use minetest.after in register_on_joinplayer like I do in my 3d_armor mod but please use less than 1 second to retain compatibillity with my mod. eg:

Code: Select all

    minetest.after(0.5, function(player)
        skins.update_player_skin(player)
    end, player)

Updated: now you see 3D skins previews generated by blender. stu, this should be fixed by adding "default" to depends.txt. It works fine on my git server.

How do I make this work?

Put the extracted files in you /minetest/mods/minetest folder, rename to "skins" without the "", and launch the game. You need Inventory plus installed also for it to work.

Thanks...
ANd Really I don't enter "" if someone use them for something. since really "" Has a Null Use.

Most people know not to use "" but some people think that you do use them. "skins" doesn't work skins does.

I know, but like I sayed it a Null use for somethings...
Anyways Say hello to, Character and CSS.

Do you know of the 2D skin that used to be found on Redcrab's server (the one the statue at spawn is of.) Could you add it to this mod? Could you also add the 2D skin that is of Cisoun? Also, the mod could use more 3D female skins.

I did manage to find a few skins in the forums that might be useful additions to this mod.
http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=920-3D Cookie Monster Skin
http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=1105-DevilXkid1's Custom Skin (could be a basis for a 3D skin)
http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=1126-Super Hero Skins (could be a basis for a 3D skin)
http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=1300-3D Nyan Cat Texture
http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=1020-Various Textures Here (could make good future 3D skins)

Redcrab's skin: I would like to but I don't remember where it can be downloaded. I'll try to find it back...
Cisoun's: I'll add it soon.
Female skins: I can't find any on the forum.

Jordach created some new 3D skins. The link to them is below.

Did you succeed at adding Cisoun's 2D skin yet? Concerning Redcrab's 2D skin, you might have to ask Redcrab for it.

I've made an oerkki skin (2d) : https://www.mixturecloud.com/media/download/VDrIdLnA

You did get Cisoun's 2D skin added, but will you ask Jordach about adding his skins to this mod? If anyone has Redcrab's 2D skin, could it also be added to this mod?

[Zeg9]

Added Jordach's skins, I'll ask on redcrab's server thread if anyone has a copy of his skin.

WTFPL : is was so easy to make that you can do that in less than 1 min
You can use it as you want to use it. You can modify it too. Have fun!

That is good news. Maybe one day skins could have their own sounds for walking, falling, injury, falling injury, death, talking, swimming, and jumping.

That's a good idea, you should post it in "modding general" rubrick ! (especially for sounds )

+1, great idea, but... walking, for instance, is defined per-node, so it would require a few ugly hacks to do it (like removing all sounds, and make the server play them, which would be laggy)

This mod should stop depending on inventory+, because not everyone wants to install it.

Instead, you should add a craftable dresser, or use /skin to change skin. (Yes, you can open metadata formspecs with commands now.)

Apparently, you've also added my skins to the mod without adding my license to the OP, if you plan on adding the spare skins I made, please do add this note to the front page.

And, no. This isn't a: make skins mod look like a pile of shit. I actually use this on the Wazuclan (Linuxgaming.us) server.

I am currently adding all licenses to the README, it will be pushed soon to the git repo.
EDIT added to the readme.
And, for the /skin command, why not use mod menu? (link)
