can't run minetest 0.4.14 on GNU/Linux

[crazy_baboon]

Hi folks,

I have successfully compiled and ran the minetest binary on arch linux (using cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE && make -j4 && ./bin/minetest
). It runs fine on Minimal development test mode.

I then added the minetest_game-master I downloaded from https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game to the games folder. When I try to run in the Minetest Game mode I get the following error:

Failed to load and run script from /home/username/Documents/minetest-0.4.14/bin/../games/minetest_game-master/mods/default/init.lua:

Anyone know why this is happening?


Thanks

why version 0.4.14?
currently 0.4.15 is released!!

I don't like the why the rail carts have been implemented in 0.4.15 (or maybe in an earlier version I don't know yet). See my previous post viewtopic.php?f=3&t=16514

You can't run the latest minetest_game with Minetest 0.4.14. You can get minetest_game for 0.4.14 here: https://github.com/minetest/minetest_ga ... 0.4.14.zip

Thanks Calinou,

What is the link to the minetest-game archive so I can find previous releases?
