You can find them under:

/home/TOPYWO/celeron55-minetest-9696ed3_copy 1/games/minetest_game/mods

and some more/same for the minimal game under:

/home/TOPYWO/celeron55-minetest-9696ed3_copy 1/games/minimal/mods

As far as my LUA understanding goes, you can craft the vessels, but have to use /giveme for the wool and dyes.

edit: typo's :-/

Compiling it / this Looks a LOT like 0.4.2 rc1

The new performance improvement is awesome; in this situation I get about 30FPS when I used to get 20FPS.

I loaded up 0.4.3 minetestserver on fedora but it crashes within 60 seconds of logging in. I get the following dump:


19:12:44: ERROR[main]: ERROR: An unhandled exception occurred: ServerError: LuaError: error: ...ed3/bin/../games/minetest_game/mods/default/init.lua:1195: attempt to call field 'node_metadata_inventory_take_allow_all' (a nil value)

I'm running 0.4.1 with no problems. Any ideas what might be going on with 0.4.3?

4.3 isnt really stable yet is it so there is bound to have bugs and other issues along with the release

You appear to be having a mismatched minetest_game with your minetest. Update it.

It is 0.4.3 and not 4.3

Thanks! For the record. The 0.4.3 minetest_game tar download link on the download page points to 0.4.0. I'm likely not the last person to have touble with this.

i would also prefer you take the extra 0.07 seconds to write a 0. in front of the version number.

also, it takes effort to tell you this, and most people wouldn't bother, so please consider this request to be on behalf of all those that dont want to clutter the thread over a 0.

thanks =)

I for one get annoyed when people use wrong version numbers.

How am I acting "better than you" by saying that 4.3 and 0.4.3 are not the same thing? I understood that you mean 0.4.3, but I didn't understand why you would use a different number to represent it.

DOES EVERYONE have to fight again.

0.4.3 is the current release, I for one is trying to be in the middle.

Cornernote is suggesting you add one single number in front of that - thus meaning we can get you a little better - 3.1 sounds like it's from the future.

Also - don't rage if someone moans about your spelling - he's just telling you to improve and read a little bit more; before you post.

Everyone can do a lot better when they try - I taught someone the basics of binary - in half an hour (age was 53) so yeah.

In modern software version numbers, the leading zero is usually significant. Minetest version numbers are not decimal values - which is why they can have two or more periods. ".1" might be the same as ".10", "0.1", or "0.10" in arithmetic, but in a version number, that's not the case. In a version number, "0.10" would be later than "0.1".

4.3 is most definitely NOT equivalent to 0.4.3, either mathematically or as a version number - the game hasn't even reached version 1.0 yet, so how could "4.3" be right?

I tried to be civil.

ANd if you insist with 4.3 we are more likely to ignore you.

then do so dont try to change how someone types it just belittle people when they do that

No matter how many times you type it, Minetest v4.3 does not exist. The version number is 0.4.3.

its pointless to talk to you people if the admin would have asked me or suggested i use to 0.4.3 thing then yeah i would try but when i get members telling me to do it something its just dumb and thats all so lets just drop the dumb subject since no one can just pass over it

Can you all just shut up! No agreement will be reached this way so please just stop! make nodes not war

its not a question im just getting more or less yelled at for saying 4.3 instead of 0.4.3 and they know im talking about when i say 4.3

They might know, but some less experienced community member might not. It is not cool and not consistent with everything else. If I start calling you BrightBacon, everybody knows who I mean, but chances are you don't approve too much.

Moderators are free to ban you for continuously saying 4.3 if you do it even once after this reply.
