Ah, the nostalgia...the floppy disk box looks very good.

Re: [Addon] Media Pack for Laptop Mod [laptop_mediapack]
Mod is now available. I added Compact Disc and Cassette. All media can be stored in Disk Storage unit.
Known Issue: Media in disk storage unit may not face the proper direction based on orientation of the storage unit. This is a bug from ItemShelf. If you have a solution, please let me know.

Why are you people making mods that add virtual computers inside of actual computers? If you're not careful, you might end up with a self-sustaining Fractal Reality scenario on your hands.
What is SCP-055?

Man, I love old computers. The guys working on the laptop mod are doing a great job, but I just had to have some 5 1/4" floppies!

Re: [Addon] Media Pack for Laptop Mod [laptop_mediapack]
It is really nostalgia!
A bug found, maybe a itemshelf too: If you add 2 different items to the storage, the first one is shown only. If you remove the first own, no items shown in storage.
The second thing are the media capabilities. We have currently "usb" and "floppy" capabilities. Basically the same, the "usb" is allowed to be used as storage and for system backup. The "floppy" for storage and live-boot.
To add new storage types we need to define first the capabilities for them. You assigned all items to the floppy group. It was funny in testing to boot the Modern OS on the Pentium 3 computer using formatted Punch Card oO
- floppy same functionality as other implemented floppy (live-boot + storage)
- CD for liveboot + HDD in ram
- tape for backup/restore on old computers (without USB)
- punch card ??? (was before my time)
The vision is to get the minetest working in laptop mod in minetest, and then implement a laptop mod for the minetest in laptop mod ;-)

Basically interested, yes. The issue is at the time we have the "Modern OS" only. We have the idea and the framework to emulate own OS for each computer (like Printer have the "Printer launcher", but uses the same framework as "Modern OS" laptops.). But we do not have an OS for the old computers. See app-request: Simple Shell-like launcher for old computer #32I'm not sure if anyone in the laptop project is interested, if so feel free to add parts or the whole thing to the core.

It only shows what is in the first slot. I would like to change it to start checking at slot 0 and move forward until it finds something to display or exhausts all the slots.bell07 wrote:It is really nostalgia!

That would be a fun project. You are looking for a DOS/MS BASIC/UNIX style text interface? Those are some of my favourite. Mehaps I could work on that part... I am new to lua but am learning as I go.bell07 wrote:Basically interested, yes. The issue is at the time we have the "Modern OS" only.

Tape was used for storage, lots of games were sold on cassette. It was especially popular in the UK when the so called early retro computers reigned. I have personally used cassette with commodore 64, the Tandy Color Computer series, and have even heard of one being hooked up to early IBM PCs. Most of those computers booted to a built in ROM, but could also use a boot disk to boot up to an alternative OS. For instance, Commodore 64/128 could boot to CPM, CoCo's could use either Deskmate or OS9. This was done by floppy typically, but in the case of the Commodore 64 there was a CPM on a cartridge. As far as I know, tape could not be used as a boot disk.bell07 wrote:The second thing are the media capabilities. We have currently "usb" and "floppy" capabilities.

Punch cards were used with the old mainframes, and could be used for data storage and for boot.
Another cool idea would be to slow down access on diskettes, cassettes and punch cards complete with disk access sounds.

Re: [Addon] Media Pack for Laptop Mod [laptop_mediapack]
Latest version fixes Disk Storage rotate bug and makes Disk Storage drop itself in addition to all it's disks.

Re: [Addon] Media Pack for Laptop Mod [laptop_mediapack]
I do not like the dropping to the world, in minetest the dropped items are moved is directly to the inventory (We can hold things). I know other blocky games does drop all down.Disk Storage drop itself in addition to all it's disks.
The other idea is to leave the disks in the storage, and store the content to itemmeta, then the content is restored on place. See after_dig_node() and after_place_node() function in https://github.com/Gerold55/minetest-la ... ode_fw.lua
The issue this way is the items cannot be stackeable anymore, so the stack_max needs to be set to 1 this way
