Welcome to the Minetest community. I think you will find a more friendly environment here that what the Minecraft community usually offers.Ethan.Saaris wrote:Hello. I moved to Minetest from Minecraft, because my Acer netbook couldn't handle Minecraft.
So, Minetest it is. I like how it looks and I wanted to ask how active the development is, and what are the plans for the future.
Cheers!
Being an open source game, Minetest is still being worked on and improved (even if development can be slow.) Of course, there is a fork of it known as Freeminer that has more features (which is also open source.)

One definite advantage they both have is that they are easier to create and maintain mods for than Minecraft.Ethan.Saaris wrote:Found the Freeminer web site, I am going to test them both.
As my netbook only plays Minetest (and probably Freeminer), I'll explore a lot and I'll be able to compare it with Minecraft.

Those things aren't plans, they're already added in the dev versions and daily builds of minetest.lightonflux wrote:(Some) Plans for the future: http://dev.minetest.net/Changelog

Compared with stable 0.4.9 they are "plans" that aren't in a stable version yet.Evergreen wrote:Those things aren't plans, they're already added in the dev versions and daily builds of minetest.lightonflux wrote:(Some) Plans for the future: http://dev.minetest.net/Changelog

In that sense, yes. However, almost everything in -dev is going to be added to the next stable version.sfan5 wrote:Compared with stable 0.4.9 they are "plans" that aren't in a stable version yet.Evergreen wrote:Those things aren't plans, they're already added in the dev versions and daily builds of minetest.lightonflux wrote:(Some) Plans for the future: http://dev.minetest.net/Changelog

7:42 PM - Bauglio: I think if you go to staples you could steal firmware from a fax machine that would run better than win10 does on any platform
7:42 PM - Bauglio: so fudge the stable build
7:43 PM - Bauglio: get the staple build
