Some of you might know about minetest-luk3yx-4, which was sadly abandoned in Nov 2020. This project forks from it (so, fork from a fork) and backports even more, not only from release 5.0.0, but from the whole 5.x tree. So far I've been able to backport some minor commits from back when the original fork got abandoned, as well as apply a few critical security patches (see new commits).
This fork is made for the purpose of connecting to legacy 0.4.x servers, as well as testing 0.4.x support for modders and game authors.
Spoiler
To clear things up:
- This is not a "better Minetest" project.
- This is not an effort to impersonate the official Minetest project.
- This is not a riot against the 5.0.0 breakage which is more than 5 years old at this point.
- This is not a box of tasty raspberry donuts.
- This is a fork of a fork of a voxel game engine thingie.
