FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

What are you talking about? When I downloaded the mod, all that downloaded was a "RAR file". There was no folder, no init.lua, or anything. *facepalm* You have to extract the rar file. The rar file is a few files compressed in to one. So is zip, tar.gz, tar.bz2, and so on. I sincerely apologize tha...

Ahh, ok then.

This is an awesome mod!! Easy to control and you can't just walk through the heli. Nice job.

EDIT: I've encountered a bug: if you fly too far away, another helicopter will appear where you launched the first one. The same thing happened with the boats mod.

There's no init.lua, therefore the mod won't work on the game. I don't know how to write a LUA file, let alone save a file as one, so please fix this.

As of Minetest 4.6, I'm having trouble installing mods. I don't know why, but when I put them in the "mods" folder, they don't show up in the game or the configure page. How do you add mods to the game, then?

Again, I have Minetest 4.6

This. Is. Amazing.

The mountain is amazingly high, and it was really fun creating a hiking trail to the very top. I also like the idea of the mountain being hollow.

How do I save it as a 7-zip?

The file downloaded as a file, not a zipped folder. I tried to make a folder for it named "inventory_plus" but I don't know how to make an "init.lua". The mod should be in a zipped folder form in the fist place anyway.

The mod didn't really do much for me. The npc's wouldn't spawn and whenever I tried to place an npc spawner the server wouldn't let me, even after issuing the "give <Singleplayer> peacefulnpc" command. You haven't explained what the npc portal is- it did nothing, and the texture for the npc fence do...

So, I downloaded the new version.....
.....and it worked! :D

One thing- the concentration of zombie spawning looks a bit low. Perhaps in the next version you could lower the "perlin noise".

Where is the spawn control in your code?

Well, it runs the mod but it won't spawn the map when I teleport to the netherworld.

How do you download it?

Okay, thanks. Also- when placing bad mobs, I believe one of them spawned inside the player again. It's not as extreme or often, though.

Okay, sorry. How do you enable secondary spawning.

I have this same problem.

Blacklist.....?

All these bugs should actually only appear on older systems, that can't process the large amount of blocks that are generated (like Windows XP Systems, which are kind of old). Umm...that happens to me too, except it's the mese tree trunk instead of the leaves. I have Windows 7, and a pretty powerfu...

Okay, well I guess that does it. I can't use the mod. It sucks because all the mods out there for mobs don't work for me. :( I'll look for updates on this; maybe a new version will work for me. It's really nice.

@J-Block please copy lines around the error line for 1.4.x too. Those might show whats really going on. 1.9.x is experimental atm I can't give any guarantee it's working correct until 2.x release. Nevertheless the more ppl testing 1.9.x the faster I'll be able to release a 2.x version. EDIT1: do no...

@J-Block 1.4.x series ain't compatible to 0.4.4 anymore if you wanna use 0.4.4 you'll have to use 1.9.x ... probably I should include inventory plus to modpack to avoid missing dependencys. EDIT1: sorry I'd been a little bit to fast to answer, can you check if the file wich is complained about is t...

@sapier Well, I did what you said with the new version. It worked well at first. Then it froze up, crashed, and the file acted weird. I think I spawned too many animals. I got rid of it. Looks like I'm still going with the old version. And by fire I mean the vombie fire when they die at day. I tried...

Also in worlds that I made before installing the mod, only hostile mobs, gulls, and chickens spawn. I don't ever see other animals. In new ones this isn't true.

Make the problem happen again? I'm not sure. I could try. I've noticed a few patterns but they are not solidified: *Almost always happens at night or when I fly underground. *I can hear the growling loudly, meaning the mob is close to me. *In the morning (as I said) I notice fire seemingly coming fr...

@J-Block some hostile mobs are big if you're standing right inside them you may not see them @tux_peng /spawnmob <modname>:<mobname> x,y,z e.g. /spawnmob animal_sheep:sheep 0,0,0 1.9.2 has arrived now theres a animated cow walking, standing around and eating Some info for those of you trying to cre...

I noticed something- Sometimes I get killed by an invisible mob. I don't know why, but the mob is actually inside the player. I found this out when it seemed I was on fire during the daytime. Perhaps it has something to do with the ability to pass through mobs?

Awesome! Is there any way you can view yourself in-game like in minecraft?

Works well for me, thanks!

Can you update this mod for 0.4.4? It's really nice!
