[Game] Carbone [carbone] – minetest_game, improved

[Kilarin]

but without touring rails as these didn't work (they behaved exactly like boost rails).

Well, thats certainly odd. Touring rails should have a max velocity of 4.5, set by:
TARGET_TOUR_V = 4.5, -- target touring velocity

I'm not certain what would cause those to work just fine in minetest_game but not in carbone. I'll see what I can figure out.

[BrandonReese]

If you are reworking bones, you could use waypoints to show bones postion to owner.

That's genius!

Particles and sounds for water and lava would be a life-giving addition to this game. Minetest+ and BFD have them.

[philipbenr]

I agree Inocudom. I think that this game could also use some variations... Maybe a different feel TP...

This would just slow down the game, I try to avoid big hacks, better have such things implemented in builtin or C++ first.

You can change the textures by yourself. I would rather not drive some people away due to a different texture pack.

I was thinking along the lines of BlockMen's MTP pack. Something not too far away from default whatsoever.

Yes, I do like BlockMen's texture pack, but Hybrid Dog's does show some usefulness.

NICE! I hope this feature will be used on pvp servers soon! It looks very promising!

[philipbenr]

This will come in very handy! Tells you when you are near dead, and gives you a constant reminder of your health..

[Evolykane]

This should be as standard in the Game!

[philipbenr]

@ Evolykane: Still needs some changes/improvement. Still, I agree.

Summary of recent changes:

• Added golden armour and shields; made armour weaker to attacks and disabled armour healing by default.
• Added a server-side xray setting, useful for modders or to find nice dungeons.
• Many renewed textures, like stone, sand, clay, papyrus, book, bookshelf…
• New textures for wooden tools and sword; these ones also now last as long as stone tools and sword.
• Mobs float in water; sheeps can be fed wheat to regain 3 HP; play a sound when shearing sheep.
• Added hay blocks using facedir, crafted with 9 wheat.
• Coin ores generate at any height; added patches of dirt, gravel, sand and cobblestone underground; added large clusters of coal, iron and very rarely, diamond.
• Tweaked GUI looks: highlighted slots are easier to see, tooltip background is now black.
• Snow is now non-walkable.

hmm - I always dreamt of some sort of craftable x-ray/noclip goggles for the advanced miner ;-)
maybe similar in effect to how burying oneself with noclip on but not freemove used to work.

Some changes done the last week:

• Strongly reduce server CPU, RAM and bandwidth usage by tweaking the settings.
• Mob fixes: they jump higher, spawn better and a possible fix to monsters not attacking players has been added.
• Add soccer by kaeza (not so useful as a default mod, so it may go away) and jumping (trampolines and cushions) by Jeija, both tweaked.
• Add 15 paintings, craftable with 8 sticks and 1 wool of any colour.
• Add a sound when eating, prevent over-heal when eating.
• Add 3D ladders and 3D signs, both using only 1 nodebox for good performance.
• Snow has a smoother and brighter texture.
• Give 5 torches per craft. Lots of code cleanups.

After 2014-06-28:

• Tweak ABM times and plant growth in general, fix jungle tree drop.
• Slightly rarer rat spawns.
• Reduced food healing values.
• Add tar, which is made by smelting gravel; add grey bricks (crafted using 1 brick block and 1 stone or stone brick) and alternate split stone tiles (crafted using 1 stone tile).

Just saw you moved to gitorious, great move.

But i wished i knew it earlier.

You could update the github repo so the game displays a message if the user logs into the game.

[Kilarin]

I downloaded the latest version from gitorious.
copied into my .mintest/games folder named carbone
created a new world, tried to load it, and got the following:

Code: Select all

What am I doing stupid?

You need a newer version of minetest. It uses a feature that was added after 0.4.9. You could take on of the unofficial builds if you use windows, or compile it yourself if you use linux.

Hello, guys!

Can someone help me out with getting this sub-game to run, please? I seem to can't get past the initial stage of the world. Often times, I get to see the inventory and hear the sound of my foot on sand. On some tries however, I can't get into the world and get an exception error. Here are my specs for your perusal:

Minetest verion: The updated version by Blockmen. I think it's still 0.4.9, but he added Minetest Next along with it. Ergo, I believe that there might be some additional features integrated into it.
Windows: Win7 x64 SP0
RAM: 4GB
GPU: It's a Dell N4050 laptop. I forget what the GPU is called, but I think it's an Intel switchable GPU.

I do have a screenshot of the error, and have uploaded it as well.

Thank you in advance, and may you have a great day!

You need a build that integrates this commit to not make the client crash on world load: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/co ... 9cb5738022 (2014-06-29, 11:57)

Or wait for 0.4.10 release, which is scheduled to be done on July 6th.

I really like the mod but the 3D object looks just weird (not like a sane football), i think it is better to make mono coloured balls which also had the advantage that you don't need a spinning animation.

My version was only a few weeks old! You are programming bleeding edge. :)
Updated to the freshest (actually, added the daily build ppa to my list), and now it works fine!
Thank you very much!

Why the ban privilege? This does not make sense to me.
