New problem

on the laptop that i am using, when i try to connect to the server that i am hosting from my desktop computer, the laptop just stays on the screen that says connecting to server, it seems to be stuck there and i dont know why

this wont use bandwidth?
i am concerned as we are on a lite internet plan with a very small bandwidth usage allowance

Dear Minetest Community.

Me and my brother (on the same network) would like to set up a 2 player minetest server.
is there a way to use a server between the two desktop computers without using bandwidth monitored by our isp. thanks

thanks

Oh, lawd. Easy-peasy: 1. Open /boats/init.lua in Wordpad 2. Remove {flammable=1} 3. ??? 4. Profit! --- That said, if you want an Obisidian boat, just copy the code, change the recipe, and then use GIMP on the texture. :-) Its not just that they catch on fire but that it wont let me place them on lava

anyone willing to mod the boat mod for me to support either steel obsidian or bronze boats that will drive and float on lava

Anyone Know how to do that???

what if i dont have A Dedicated GPU and i just run my graphics off of the motherboard

Hello All. I am currently using PilzAdam's boat mod ( https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=4016 ). It works great but i have a problem. i want to use the boat on lava not just water. not only will it not let me place it on lava but i think it would probably just burn up if i place it there. i...

when i am moving around everything is slow and jerky. is there any way to fix this (other than turning down the graphics).

also would running the game in Direct3d9 instead of in OpenGl make the game run smoother

/set -n disable_fire true
Else, ask your server admin to do it :P

Thanks Zeg9

i built a house with wood floors and put a dungeon master in it. he wasted no time in setting it on fire. is there a way to change the game so that wood is not flammable.Thanks

in fact i just checked and i think there are several mods that wont work with the game. could it be because i am using fess' 64 bit build i just created a new world and if freemove is on all you can see is clouds and neverending blue space. if freemove is off everything is gray i think i fixed it YA...

I've posted updated builds of minetest x64 for windows in topic http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=87122#p87122 , but maybe its good idea to start new topic in which i will post updated build of minetest x64, or just rename this topic and place it to section where people can easily found i...
