oh guilty ... I have to dig up a backup and have a look ^^
otherwise yes ... has been since the update;)

First post here and my kids and I love playing MineClone2 - thank you for the work!. I'm just discovering server etc - and while I've just returned to MT/MCL2 after a long time- so a few questions

Update/install questions:
1. How do I update if I have a world in progress? If I just unzip to games folder, do the updates work on on ongoing world? Or do I need to start a new world?

Minetest:
1. There's final minetest and minetest... Looks like at some point there was a fork. What is recommended? FMT seems to have better graphics & perf though but MT was easier for me to build from source (with Redis support). Also FMT also ships a MineClone2 game - so :confused:

Gameplay:
1. Does planting sugarcane work? I cannot seem to get it to plant - even near water block
2. Is there saddle and taming horses? Can you ride horses?

I just always replace minetest with the new version and continue to use my world (including my server> German-MineClone2-server) ... so far without problems
So I think yes, the update should work with an existing world

in short:
NEVER USE FMT !!!

MineClone 2, among many other games for Minetest, is hosted on the Content DB. https://content.minetest.net/
It's the official Minetest package system. You can download and update from there within Minetest. This is the easiest way to update MineClone 2.

The older method of updating games manually still works: Just replace the “mineclone2” directory in the “games” directory.

You do not need to start a new world.

I try to not break worlds for no reason, but I note that MineClone 2 is still in alpha stage, which means things can change at any time. But when a big change is happening, you will see it in the release notes.

When I'm at it, I should probably list the things that I expect to do a complete rework at some point (possibly in a breaking fashion):
  • All things redstone
  • Armor
  • Mobs
1. There's final minetest and minetest... Looks like at some point there was a fork. What is recommended? FMT seems to have better graphics & perf though but MT was easier for me to build from source (with Redis support). Also FMT also ships a MineClone2 game - so :confused:
The latest and greatest version of MineClone 2 can be found on in this forum thread and the Content DB. MineClone 2 needs Minetest 5.1.0 to work (but maybe 5.0.0 works as well … no idea). So that is recommended.

Final Minetest is indeed a fork. It's a fork of Minetest 0.4. It's mostly developed by only one developer, OldCoder. It is true that Final Minetest offers a version of MineClone 2 on its website, but it's an old version: version 0.41.3.

If you're unsure about which version you got, read the “README.md” inside the game's directory. It should tell you the version number.

I do neither endorse nor discourage the use of Final Minetest, until someone can proof to me that it is malware. I do neither endorse nor discourage the version of MineClone 2 shipped on minetest.org.

Thanks @wuzzy and @Walker for the detailed answers.

I'm going with minetest - esp since I can compile it with Luajit and Redis and deploy on a RPi. Any advice on how to make it look good/better on the client than with defaults?

There are other, just as important, aspects to consider than whether it has malware or not.

icecold, you should read viewtopic.php?f=55&t=23615

Has compass, map and mini map been removed... I only see those in the fmt distro
Somehow that have me the impression that the fmt mcl2 was more advanced!

Also, is there anyplace to look up ALL recipes?

No, these items have not been removed, and they are all craftable.

But I can confirm the crafting guide does no longer display the recipe for the compass … OK, I tell you now: It's 4 iron ingots around 1 redstone.

Will be fixed in next version.

I find it hard to believe that the FMT version is more advanced, as it's an older version. Show me one feature that FMT's MCL2 has that my MCL2 doesn't.

Currently, the only way to make more recipes visible in the game is by collecting more items. This will unlock new recipes. To know all recipes, you have to collect all items at some point in time.

But maybe I could add a cheat or something like that to unlock all. The main reason you don't get to see all recipes at the start is because of spoilers. :) Also, Minecraft does that as well. :P

Note that items are craftable even if the crafting guide doesn't show it (but it should not happen that the crafting guide doesn't show something that you can already craft).

Yeah... I checked versions after your earlier posts and was wondering (I had Redstone and iron ingots) since the recipe wasn't shown.. that led to the (false) impression...

Any way the map helps in figuring out a saddle location? Driving my kids and me mad :)

On that note, a tech tree would be really nice QoL improvement!

For saddles, you just want to look for chests in dungeons, mineshafts, temples and villages. The loot is random, so you might be looking for a while before you find one. As far as I know, vanilla Minecraft maps never showed the locations of chests with saddles in them, so I doubt that feature will get added unless someone makes a mod of that for MineClone2.. but that would take all the fun out of searching for saddles.

I meant those are the ways you would find saddles in vanilla Minecraft and that in vanilla Minecraft, maps don't show the location of chests or their contents. Sorry, I didn't mean to mislead you. I play both games and sometimes it is difficult to remember which features are in and out of each game.

FOUR FACTS

by Wuzzy » Post

FACT: No villages generate in MCL2 (yet). This is a missing feature.
FACT: The minimap does never show loot. This is by design.
FACT: There are hidden treasures in the world that may or may not contain saddles. Explore!
FACT: There may or may not be a new release within the next 24 hours.

Version 0.57.0 released!

by Wuzzy » Post

Version 0.57.0 released! Nicknamed “The Little Ocean Update”!

Changelog:
  • Add kelp and seagrass, they grow in oceans
  • Add dried kelp, the cheapest food
  • Add dried kelp block, burns well in furnace
  • Add corals, coral fans and coral blocks (in Creative Inventory only)
  • Sponges generate in deep oceans
  • Guardians and guardian elders drop more items on death
  • Ice texture is now opaque by default. This is done because translucency doesn't work well in Minetest (you can re-enable it with a setting, but beware it might look ugly)
  • Player now looks upwards when going to bed
  • Fix end rods falling down
  • Use sand and gravel as ocean floors (except in v6 mapgen)

Ich vermute mal, dass LBMs dann wohl in Minetest unzuverlässig sind. Seufz.
Ist dir vielleicht Minetest an dieser Stelle vorher abgestürzt oder hast du Minetest brutal abgeschossen?

Tu mal »run_at_every_load = true« in Zeile 763 in mods/ITEMS/mcl_core/nodes_base.lua.
Und mach das wieder weg, wenn du es nicht mehr brauchst.
