FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

It appears that this server is going to be down indefinitely. I'm not able to get ahold of a copy of the world. While you sit bored through this intermission, you should contribute to Mosstest.

Calm down and stop shouting. Technically it is.

Is this an error on the Minetest download or the Fedora download? If it's the latter you're asking in the wrong place.

Are both of you on the same LAN?

*lurk* Even if it IS the OS's fault, Minetest should still handle it elegantly instead of leaving the user scratching their head.

At least our IRC channel works...

I think the complaint here is the fact that some lava nodes aren't cleaned up properly.

It would be good if announcements also had a link to a github revision whenever practical

The number is 30000. THIRTY thousand, not THREE thousand.

Hey guys, i was just wondering what people have been building lately, i know i have been really busy with my school building anyone wants to see it well it is under construction it is at planetminetest's creative server, i should be posting pics of the first building soon Why'd you quit 0gb.us? You...

I don't know whether to punch hex or shake his hand. He made it impossible for me to play on the uplink server, but did point out flaws in the system. I do wish he'd simply warned ahead of time and made the vulnerability public so we could fix it rather than just DOSing, but, can't have an omlette ...

After thinking the situation over for some time, I feel as if the proper thing for me to do as the WiFI operator is to apologize for the damage and technical issues as a result of the attack. However, as I am NOT the originator, I do NOT take any moral obligation/responsibility for this attack. Agai...

I have taken all reasonable action possible on my side. The WiFi link has been taken down(it DID have an on-connect disclaimer powered by a small webserver before), and I am working personally with hex to figure out the whys(seems to be to prove a point that MT is a "security failure", the hows(AFAI...

Sadly, there was a series of DoS/flood attacks on Minetest servers. I have found that this was caused by hexafraction, using my public WiFi. This service has since been taken down. While the originating IPs do correspond to the IPs I use(plural as dynamic), I cannot, and will not take responsibility...

lurk Fine, I'll upload it... But don't expect much action otherwise...

I'm using it for another project, so I might as well.

Pavel_S created wonderful models for the simple_mobs mod. I am hoping that he can create player models for Minetest to give the game more variety and uniqueness (the current player model looks like it came from Minecraft, has no neck, and has arms that are the same size as the legs.) Rarkenin might...

I used the suggested script ( http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=53120#p53120 ) to install Minetest on my Debian laptop. The game starts up, and I can create a world, but when I go to play it gets stuck at the connecting to server phase. I was going to get the debug.txt but there is only a...

I'm trying to get power back in the hands of the community with this proposal. Banning hmmmm would be relatively unnecessary with this proposal if executed correctly.

Draft proposal: http://dev.minetest.net/Rarkenin/Proposal_System

Please discuss on associated talk page or here on the forums.

Stop whining and already go making your fork. And good luck with it. This is the, frankly, sour attitude that causes this friction and incommunication. I don't even know what he is asking about, and such doesn't seem to be contained in this discussion at least. Maybe you should make a clear proposa...

The general idea about this is that we shouldn't need this because MT is an open source project. Maintaining many APIs is a pain, and compiling C++ modules for all supported platforms simply sucks. What disappoints me is how we can't communicate our intent. People with features, people with time an...

Honestly, I'm tired of coming onto the forums/IRC/etc and seeing this argument happening. In my (humble and probably unimportant) opinion, we need a method to dynamically load a set of C++-side mods that can make powerful changes outside the API. These would need to be installed client-side if need ...

To the server operator: Set up your NAT so you don't need Hamachi. I'm having trouble believing that your connection is the culprit. You probably did something wrong.

To the people trying to enter: Use Hamachi for now, and/or ask the server operator to get it work work without Hamachi.

This has been suggested before. It will not be a doughnut / torus, it will be as if you have got a piece of paper, and wrapped it around to make a cylinder. Map generation will need to be changed, so that they link together. A better way of doing this would not to teleport the camera, but to make i...

How would that work in multiplayer? The camera is moved locally. Any other players would simply be rendered relative to that point. SO, if my character is at 100,100,100 in Minetest space(camera is 0,0,0 in Irrlicht space), a player in 101, 102, 103 in Minetest space would just be rendered as 1,2,3...

There will be troubling glitches near the wraparound due to the imprecision of doubles which Irrlicht uses. This could be remedied by moving the world mesh, leaving the camera in 0,0,0 in Irrlicht space.

The code actually does this somewhat due to LIGHT_SUN being special in regards to other light values.

It works for me. What is the SPECIFIC error message?

I can forgive the layout and colors, maybe even misuse of javascript, but i cant forgive the code. ITS HORRIBLE! Go fix it! Or get better template, posibly free one!
