Re: [WIP] Elemental Tinkerer [Very Early Alpha] [elemtinker]
At the moment, that's unfortunately pretty much it. The items in the game are suppose to act as small utilities to make exploration and combat easier. With the few things in the mod so far, the only notable one you can make is a wand that places light sources, and a wand that places fire. The latest...

[WIP] Elemental Tinkerer [Very Early Alpha] [elemtinker]
This mod was started a long time ago, and I recently saw again that it had some potential. I am bringing it to the WIP category now because the items that I added to it already are very helpful. Please note that this mod has nothing that can be obtained in survival. You must use a creative inventory...

Re: [Mod] Dense Ores [V.1] [denseores]
Oh this mod is nice. I already know this mod from MC. But thanks that you have made this mod in minetest. And maybe you could ad dense ores from other mods like the moreores mod. :D 1. RWTema made it for Minecraft, though more simplistic. 2. I actually do have support for moreores, and have since t...

Re: [Mod] Dense Ores [V.1] [denseores]
I like this mod thanks for making it. Just curious, but did you think about making mining progressive. For example on breaking the Dense Ore node it is replaced with the less dense ore node and drops some ore items. That way you dig the same node several times getting ore each time. I would love to...

Re: [Mod] Dense Ores [V.1] [denseores]
To drop multiple items just add this line to your code drop = 'default:dirt_with_grass 4' of course you'd be dropping something other than dirty_with_grass. You can also have a chance of dropping different amounts or different items all together. drop = { max_items = 1, --this just limits that node...

Re: [Mod] Dense Ores [V.1] [denseores]
Hey I was reviewing this before recording the video on Wednesday and am wondering if there is some reason for the large ores to drop themselves when mined rather than multiple of the small ore chunks. The normal ores drop the full lumps and then your small ones drop one small ore, maybe the large o...

Re: Wishes for Minetest 0.4.11 (or 0.5)
I'm currently working on a mod that places a light node under you when you use a wand. This requires quite a lot of coding. Could we have a understandable API for players? The wiki (and lua api file) is ether outdated, wrong, or missing information for this, and it just seems too complex for tasks l...

Re: Post your modding questions here
I have a doubt, does mods like pipeworks/technic work fine in multiplayer? Or they can cause lag? Im trying to make a subgame and I want to add technology, but I want that the game can be used in a server. Finally, if these are too much for a multiplayer game, is there other options out there?

As far as I know, this is the same version that I gave you. I added something in the code to have small coal lumps work as fuel, but I could have given that to you already.

[Mod] Dense Ores [V.1] [denseores]
This mod allows ores to have a density property. Rather then allow you to find ores more often, you now find more or less material per ore. Crafting in this mod is extremely simple. You can guess it on your first try. Realy confused? Use a crafting guide mod like Unified Inventory for the manual rec...
