It looks like there is an issue with water transparency in your builds. When I look downward, the water becomes opaque. I am not entirely sure if this is caused by them, because I don't see the glitch in solo mode, but only on certain servers (can anybody elaborate on this?)

[Fess]

I've tried to produce that issue, but as in single player mode, as at server(with same world) it doesn't appears. On which server you have this issue? Did you try other build (32-bit) on it, and if yes did the same issue gone or appears?
Update: Seems i have found something looks like at your issue, for example, the same place with different minetest builds

Please try build from 16.03.2014 viewtopic.php?pid=133335#p133335 and report if your issue doesn't appears with it.

I used build 16.03.2014 in the past, and the water transparency issue was in it too. I didn't see it in the 32-bit builds made by sfan5.

The transparency issue is seen on the following servers:
Xanadu Server
Redcrab's 0.4.4 Server
VanessaE's Servers (the water is brighter on these for reasons unknown)
You should get on the #minetest irc channel and talk with the folks there about this.

Basically, RBA's commit broke some lighting code while adding in the auto bumpmapping.

Despite being good at grpahpics, RBA breaks everything else.

oh, thx a lot

about the issue above i need additional info: system used, GPU installed and opengl revision.
in the next shaders update (which will be core's one) i will built in some debug code that will dump all the info i need (thats a side note)

Well, I have a 64-bit computer with Windows 7 64-bit, 4GB of RAM (I should probably get more,) an AMD quad-core processor (this thing should probably be updated,) 1TB of HDD, and an EVGA NVidia GeForce GT 610 graphics card with 2GB of RAM.

• LuaJit(2.0.1 ->2.0.3)
• Irrlicht(1.8.0->1.8.1, in dll file version string it still is 1.8.0, because version was forgotten to change in makefile, but check the version in minetest server window, when it's running: Irrlicht Engine version 1.8.1

Could you compile builds of the following branch?

It appears to have all of the updates that the main branch has, but has 3rd person view in it too.

Is there any plan to add LevelDB support to these builds? I'm sure it will be benifitial to many.

You can try the .dll or .a from this file: http://sfan5.duckdns.org/leveldb-win64.zip

Now third person view included in main branch, so just try this updated build

You can try the .dll or .a from this file: http://sfan5.duckdns.org/leveldb-win64.zip

Only *.dll or .dll+.a file doesn't helps with making of the build with leveldb support on MSVS, i need a *.lib file or a visual studio solution. I'll try to work on this.

The needed .lib file would need to be found first. Has anyone ever come across one?

Just link statically to the .a file, that should work.

I've tried that, but recieve the same error on linking stage:

3>database-leveldb.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ""public: static class leveldb::Status __cdecl leveldb::DB::Open(struct leveldb::Options const &,class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> > const &,class leveldb::DB * *)" (?Open@DB@leveldb@@SA?AVStatus@2@AEBUOptions@2@AEBV?$basic_string@DU?$char_traits@D@std@@V?$allocator@D@2@@std@@PEAPEAV12@@Z)"
3>database-leveldb.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ""public: __cdecl leveldb::Options::Options(void)" (??0Options@leveldb@@QEAA@XZ)"

Update: Finally, i compiled version of leveldb64 that doesn't produced linking error, in case of static library. But how to check now that leveldb really works?
Here is this build with leveldb support: http://yadi.sk/d/skIjy626MSbap
Update2: Seems i found how to check it, you need manually change minetest/worlds/<yours_worldname_folder>/world.mt file as following:

Code: Select all

gameid = minetest
backend = leveldb 

and then, minetest creates map.db database folder, instead of map.sqlite file. (but rollback.sqlite file still remains uchanged)

Thank you very much, Fess.
