I can't config worlds and install mods
Under Ubuntu 14.04, this page doesn't allow me to install mods.
Clicking the "All activate" button doesn't change anything.
Re: I can't config worlds and install mods
You don't have any mods installed properly, it seems - everything in blue text is in the default MT installation and can't be disabled.
Remember you must rename all extracted mod folders (remove -master) for MT to be able to use it.

Re: I can't config worlds and install mods
It is getting all the odder.There is apparently a graphic bug because I miss a checkbox at the top and the the name of the world covers the "Select world".
In fact, all blue-written mods are installed.I can have added another one, the sea mod, but I can't activate any other ones and some already installed ones are idle like the "legacy " mod.I am clueless but I keep trying.

Re: I can't config worlds and install mods
I think you are probably installing your mods inside the "minetest_game" (or any other game you are using) folder. Install them in /mods, not in /games/examplegame/mods.
If this is not the problem, mind giving us the folder tree of your minetest directory? Just post a screenshot or something.

Re: I can't config worlds and install mods
How do you enable mods with the 'world.mt' files?What is the folder tree?What must be mentioned in it?

Re: I can't config worlds and install mods
Problem solved.I just checked out the folder tree when I type the "minetest" command line so as to run minetest and installed mods in the right folder.I don't think it is meant to work this way but it does.

Re: I can't config worlds and install mods
The correct path to the mods folder is
You installed the mods in the subgame folder, which is not the correct way to do it.
Code: Select all
~/.minetest/mods

I did that at the very beginning but it didn't work.Dragonop wrote:I think you are probably installing your mods inside the "minetest_game" (or any other game you are using) folder. Install them in /mods, not in /games/examplegame/mods.
