FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hello, I'm having problems unzipping this. When I type in the terminal: "unzip prehistoriclife_modpack-0.3.1-C9.zip" it gives me this error: Archive: prehistoriclife_modpack-0.3.1-C9,zip End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one ...

Solved thanks to Morn76

Both sides of this debate have good points.
Refueling torches seems... shall we say boring?
And yet infinite torches seems weird. (Especially when fire is finite)
Fireplaces seem more like a later-in-the-game sort of thing.
However, I'd cast my vote for keeping torches but making fires burn longer.

This sounds like a great idea. Would it open a new world and then close the old one? Or would it keep both open? While the latter would be more preferable (especially for servers) it would also require double the processing power. Also, wouldn't the other world, if used in multiplayer, require its o...

Hello,

I would like to know the code for making an entity spawn another entity, such as a fighter jet firing a missile.
I would also like to do this without the use of any APIs such as vehicle_ mash, not that I have anything against them.
Is this possible?

Amazing! I'm trying to build my own with mesecons.
I've always wondered how you use and program those touchscreens.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT I have decided that my speed of fulfilling requests is not fast enough to run this kind of service. From now on, this will be a collection of models free to download and use. I will still finish requests made up to this point. After this, new requests will be considered "...

The pegasus is basically done. Just animation left, but first I want to make sure this is what you want: https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?id=7703 And rearing: (whether you want that in the animation or not) https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?id=7704 As for the UV maps fitting ...

Maybe, but sometimes it even happens with an innocent mouse-over
Poor chests.

addi, yes, that's the green box caught red-handed.

Now for the bad news... I would like to request a wizard type character. Just based on the default player model and adding the pointy wizard hat and a beard. Sorry, BrandonReese. For religious reasons I would prefer not to make a wizard model. However, there are Blender tutorials and other Blender u...

Ok! Thanks for the request :) Sorry for not being online for a while; I'll work on the models and they should be ready this Sunday. Just to make sure I got it right: Requirements would be: * animation sequence for trotting * animation sequence for gallopping * animation sequence or single frame for ...

FORMERLY A MODEL REQUESTING SERVICE

All requests made up to this point will be fulfilled.
After that, new requests will be considered "suggestions".

I use 0.4.14, which I believe is the most recent version.

I'm having a problem with my airplane mod: my version of the Wright Flyer! (Okay, okay, I admit. I'm just editing Pavel_S's helicopter mod.) However, I have an error: Failed to load and run script from /home/pyros/.minetest/wrightflyer/init.lua: /usr/share/minetest/builtin/game/register.lua:97: atte...

Hello, I have a problem with a small rectangular green box appearing in the top left corner of the screen. When this happens, I cannot access the inventory. To make it go away I have to press ESC, sometimes repeatedly. I notice it often appears when I mouse over a chest or furnace. It also partly co...

Nice!
This is a great idea.
*clicks download*

I added the screenshots in the first post. I still really need textures.

Hello, This is my first posted mod; consequently it needs much work. Much thanks to rubenwardy's Minetest Modding Book for teaching me how to mod. I need textures for, well, everything. Don't use this on a multiplayer, or even expect it to be done. This mod was placed in WIP for a reason. Version 2 ...

I can't upload the map!
Every time I try, I get the error:
"ERROR 403 ENTITY TOO LARGE"
What should I do?

How hard would it be to create an Internet mod?

I mean, would you use node metadata (like shared chests)
to create a sort of "wireless channel?" not unlike a digiline's wired version?
Also, could this be used to interface to Mesecons to create a switch that can
be controlled from afar?

Welcome to the Pyros Tower!

Hello, I seem to have a problem with the car (and bus) floating a short distance above the ground. I believe this may be a problem with either the nodebox or model itself. In any case this can be corrected with shortening the nodebox, or, with a lesser degree of quality, the model itself by importin...

Hello, I enjoy using your mod any time I want a true-to-life Minetest experience. Also thank you for adding support for so many mods such as Ethereal. Is the API mentioned in the first post available in the hud_hunger directory, or do I copy certain parts of code from the HUD Lua file? I suspect thi...
