Obsidian Glass Rendering Error ?

by LMD » Post

Obsidian Glass Rendering Failure :
Screenshot talks.
https://imgur.com/a/nzR9GsG
The lower obsidian blocks seem to have a somehow misrendered/misscaled border ?
What's your - especially core developers - opinion on this ? Did you experience something similar ? IS THERE ALREADY SUCH AN BUG REPORT ?
Also, I tried using "Glass nodes as liquid tanks", strictly following paramat's tuto but it didnt work. Is it already included in MT 4.17 ??

Strange water shading(voxelmanip used)
(screenshot too large, however I guess that bug is very common : there are some chunk-large planes in plain water)

Huh?! This looks new to me. I wasn't aware of this bug. Yes, this is definitely a bug.
I think you should file a bug report. Nice find.

I bet you are using connected glass in the Minetest settings, am I right?
Also, I tried using "Glass nodes as liquid tanks", strictly following paramat's tuto but it didnt work. Is it already included in MT 4.17 ??
What is MT 4.17?
Anyway, I don't see why liquid tanks should be related to this bug; obsidian glass is not a liquid tank at all, it's just glass.

There's no Minetest version 4.17. Please check whether it's an official binary and consider updating to the most recent version 0.4.17.1 or the upcoming 5.0.0-dev for more features. However, this does not solve the visual issue which you reported in the initial post.
Using this PR (5.0.0-dev only), you could try to use different values for the setting `near_plane`, such as 0.01 and 0.4.
Look, I programmed a bug for you. >> Mod Search Engine << - Mods by Krock - DuckDuckGo mod search bang: !mtmod <keyword here>

0.4.17 - i of course meant 0.4.17.1, is that really THAT important ?
how should the near plane fix that ? I did some 3d development myself and don't see why you think it could solve the problem.

Dropping the 0 is lazy and annoying to see, so you will be teased about it.

It is. Always be 100 percent exact when naming programs and their versions.

Agreed, otherwise in the year 2760 ppl viewing this forum topic will be wondering how long "version 4.17" has been around...
Hey, what can i say? I'm the bad guy.
