useing minetest
Sorry, but this ole man cannot figure out how to use this program. I have a lot of problems with my eyes, and reading all this presents a problem for me, but i would like to learn. I play with my grandsons Minecraft, and get around ok, but i see things in Minetest that look good, but i do not get started very well.

Re: useing minetest
In the game open chat and type /grantme fly. Then press K to start (or stop) flying. You can change the key in the control settings.jimbo160 wrote:how do i fly?
This sounds like the window isn't maximized. How you maximize it depends on your system, but on many systems it's a button next to the one that closes a window.jimbo160 wrote:when i go to the map, the squares at the bottom thar show inventory items, are only half showing. bottom of screen goes thru center of square,
Re: useing minetest

Re: useing minetest
I am using windows 10 and i believe i got it from the Minetest site.
Re: useing minetest
Then you'll likely have downloaded and unzipped a zip file. The mods/games/worlds folders should be whereever you unzipped it.
Re: useing minetest
thank you. I will work on that. I downloaded a mod..,..viewtopic.php?f=11&t=9196.... would ypu ne able to explain how i get it installed? I do not understand explanation of installing mods.
Re: useing minetest
In general it's like this:
Open the file with 7zip. If there is a single folder inside, put it into your mods folder. You might have to rename it to the mod's name.
Then you open up minetest and go to the world selection screen. Under the world list there is a 'Configure' button. When you click it, you get to a menu where you can enable and disable mods for the world that is currently selected.

Re: useing minetest
going to trynthis, but may i ask that my downloaded zip file is in my downloads. do i open the file from there, or do i put somewhere , then open?
Re: useing minetest
you don't have to move the zip file, what's important is where the files inside go
Re: useing minetest
i triedm but not working., it shows mods on my mod folders, but when i log on i see erros at thr top of the page, but i just cannot read. i will gyst keep looking,
Re: useing minetest
bedtime now, and doing no good. i will start again sometime tomorrow.
Re: useing minetest
I recommend you try installing mods through the Content tab of the Minetest client. You can click 'browse online content' to look at the available mods then click 'install' for whichever mod(s) you want. Enable them for your local game, and you should be good to go.
Re: useing minetest
put another download in and i still get an error message. i cannot understand what it is telling me, only at the end of messge, it tells me to check debugg list.
Re: useing minetest
Can you send screenshots of the error messages?
Also to read small text there should be a way to zoom in built into windows.

Re: useing minetest
Edit the file name by removing the "-master" part so the file reads as only dreambuilder_modpack
Minetest will not accept -
File names for mods will always use a _
remove everything from the - on

Re: useing minetest
sorry to be such a problem for you guys, but i cannot find a file name that has master in in.
Re: useing minetest
dreambuilder_modpack has a '-master' at the end of it according to your screenshot, change the folder name to remove the '-master' portion of it.
Hey, what can i say? I'm the bad guy.
