Re: Post your modding questions here
@ABJ: That would really be great :D
@Killerz: You can use textures from other peoples mods, as long as you include the license and give credit, (and anything else specified by the license). For example, if I was to use the default_stone.png texture from minetest_game you would have to include this in the license.txt or readme: "default_stone.png from Cisoun's WTFPL texture pack", and also include a copy of the WTFPL license .
You can also make them yourself. Paint is ok, but it's a lot easier with more advanced programs like GIMP or GFIE.
There is a list of groups here: http://dev.minetest.net/Groups
And you can make your own groups, just by adding them to the list of groups for a node. For example, in my witchcraft mod, I added the potions group just by making potions belong to the group potions=1

Re: Post your modding questions here
Is there any way to modify the sky minetest?
I want to start a project to create rain, snow, etc. I know mo weather but I want to create a lighter mod to a server.
If they know mods that change the appearance of the sky, let me know.

Re: Post your modding questions here
You can use "player:set_sky({color}, "plain", {})" to change the color, or "player:set_sky({}, "skybox", {textures})" to make the sky out of textures, and finally you can use "player:set_sky({}, "regular", {})" to return the sky to normal.
mods that change the sky:
Xerenas'(hope that's spelt right) weather_pack changes the sky during rain and storms.
skybox extended by emperor_genshin changes the sky when the player is in "space"(really high).
glaxybox(don't know the author) changes the sky to stars and galaxies.
marssurvive by UjEdwin also changes the sky when the player is in space.

Re: Post your modding questions here
Licences are ((usually) one-way!) agreements that give and (usually -_-) take from the user of a product certain permissions about it's usage. For example can you copy this software, disassemble it, modify it. etc. You can make a "licence" however you want as long as the law allows. The names - CC-BY-SA or all those other named licences are prepackaged sets of conditions. An author can easily choose from a different set of licence options this way; each licence offers specific conditions suited for different kinds of common author licencing conditions configurations (do I want my user to be restricted on use. do I want my user to be free, etc) and prepackage for you all the legalese that would be needed to make the condition valid with the laws take legal action against a user for violating these terms. Otherwise, in custom licence, you have to write all of it yourself. Or simply write Licence = WTFPL (Whatever the f*** people want).
Just my knowledge from the few years.......also some bits which I know exist are missing here, but I'm too bad at explaining to include them, somebody help
Ask me twice if need be.

You need an exporter plugin for the b3d format. But I'm not sure that any exporter works. I tried this week to export a sheep model, but it doesn't work

Re: Post your modding questions here
I wanted to create a mod "default_extra" to supplement the features of minetest_game that are missing in Voxelgarden. To define them the item names are of the form ":default:stone_with_gold". But then I get an error complaining that the original default mod should use the ":" prefix. What is wrong here?
"default_extra" depends on "default"

Re: Post your modding questions here
I'm making the assumption that you are trying to make Minetest register the node as a default: node. However, the ":" prefix is only for replacing existing nodes, not using other mods to register a non-present node as present in the mod. You can only use this prefix if you are already replacing an existing "default:stone_with_gold". So you'll just have to register it as a default_extra node.
Just my meagre knowledge and guesswork..

Re: Post your modding questions here
Not true. The : prefix disables the name check, so you can use it to add a node called default:stone in a mod called default_extraABJ wrote:However, the ":" prefix is only for replacing existing nodes, not using other mods to register a non-present node as present in the mod.

Can anyone help?

Re: Post your modding questions here
Perhaps try commenting out default.get_hotbar_bg(0,4.85), or maybe changing it to default.get_hotbar_bg(9,0).
