video card Direct3D for minetest-0.4.dev-20120408?

[JoseMing]

20120408 version of minetest I run in 9 FPS in OpenGL and makes the game look slow, you can do something like Direct3D to put in this version?, is that I play with this version since my pc runs better in Direct3D

[Jordach]

Nope, Irrlicht has fucked Direct3D 8/9 it will always crash.

[JoseMing]

well, i cant play this version now... :S

[Jordach]

The only way I can think of fixing is, well, juggerybugery, but even then it wont. :C

[JoseMing]

cmon..., this version is so good!

I use the OpenGL version, even on my netbook and it runs pretty fine, same FPS as DirectX version (well, in older versions such as 0.3.1).

Tweak your graphic settings properly, disable fancy leaves, disable fog and clouds (in minetest.conf, enable_clouds = 0 and enable_fog = 0).

disable fog

When it enabled, it runs faster on my netbook.

[Jordach]

Same, fog makes me run faster, strange.

[Calinou]

Well, fog actually makes distant stuff harder to see, and uses some minimal amount of GPU.

WTF are you people talking about?

The 0.4.dev-20120408 snapshot build has been built with MSVC, and thus has direct3d support. Add this to minetest.conf:

Code: Select all

video_driver = direct3d9

[Jordach]

wait wut?!

I'm still getting "access violation" in direct3d. Now, opengl runs better in my crappy notebook than in previous minetest versions. It still gives that old error that display different icons for each kind of node in opengl mode, and there is something strange that makes a lot of lag in singleplayer mode

I did what celeron55 instructed to do in order to play the game in Direct3D but the game continues to run in with OpenGl leaving the game running at an average of 2FPS for me (I have OpenGl 1.1)

you also have to put it in your minetest.config file
