FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

For those of you who are interested.

why not use Youtube to stream? In a youtube stream, there isn't much support for gaming. No good real time chat, hard to interact with users really. However, highlights will be uploaded to youtube and twitch. Here's the latest highlight :) http://www.twitch.tv/jordanmrichards/c/3688725

How much people already watched your "let's plays"?
Just wonder.

Many people have watched my SimCity ones, I have only just started streaming minetest :) look around.

Starting at 3pm EST today :D

Hi there, we ended up streaming this

http://www.twitch.tv/jordanmrichards/b/501547132

i would watch but my internet is too slow Sorry to hear that! :( Unfortunately, video transcoding is only available to twitch partners, once I can video transcode, you can select a low resolution that is watchable. I am aiming to become one, but I need the communities support to get enough follower...

Thanks for posting! I will certainly take a look at this.

Hello mappers!

Ever built a fun challenge/quest map, but you never really got to see anyone play it?
Well I have good news, I have started doing a new livestream project on minetest: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=8512

Just reply with a link to your map thread below!

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

# Initial window size

#screenH = 600

That did the trick! Thank you very much :)

I just maximize it. fills the whole screen. what os are you using? Not to be rude, but my question wasn't "What's the best way to get a resolution to fit your screen", my question was "Is there a setting in my config where I can choose the default window width and height?" The reason I wan't to do ...

Hey, I have a large monitor - 27"

When I open minetest, it automatically opens in 800x600.

Is there a setting in my config where I can choose the default window width and height?

Thanks
-JMR

I may livestream this :)

I may be livestreaming minetest soon. Bar Inocudom's suggestion, anymore? :)

Can't; Twitch streams can't be viewed without Flash Player or some sort of special Android or iOS application . It doesn't even work with Lightspark; I checked. Twitch has their own application for android and ios devices. Has quite a lot of bugs at the moment, but hey, it's still possible. Emphasi...

I think it is a good idea to record videos of Minetest. If you want your videos to be unique, give paramat's paragen mod a try: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=6736 In order for the mod to replace the default mapgen, look at the post linked to below: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic...

Greetings miners, I have been thinking about streaming minetest to my twitch channel: www.twitch.tv/jordanmrichards But I am curious to know: Would anyone actually be interested in watching? I will try to get the game minetest added on twitch, from there, it could boost the game's popularity dependi...

When using jquery on the mintest main page:
"DEPRECATED function call $(). Please use the jQuery() function instead. "

Did you mean to put that there?

I did, but was meant to remove it, it was for debugging purposes.

For barter shops Etc, you need to know the node name. If the tekkit mod isn't enabled, then I can't find a way to easily find the node name. I know you can look inside the lua files, but that takes a while and if the mod isn't on your local machine then what? Does anyone know an easy method to get a...

Eh, I'm not against javascript in particular, but I know plenty of minetest people who are. This website itself uses javascript... Also the main website does already too.... Oh. In that case, go ahead. I'm not against it. Easy. :-) // JMR's quote generator. // You can include HTML within the quote....

Great, thanks! I'm experienced in PHP, I'd be happy to help with that if you like. I know PHP too, I dont have access to the server, thats all. Lots of people do :D I just removed the swearing. I am not sure how to implement a random quote without PHP, I will leave that to c55 or Blockmen, if they ...

I don't think the "Flying around in a UFO" quote is suitable. It did put me off a bit. Maybe consider using another one? ;) Also the text "Minetest is developed by a random bunch of lunatics." isn't very appealing, although it may be true, maybe word it differently. "Minetest is developed by a rando...

Mine just gets stuck on 'Media' loading bar and I have loads of 'addToScene()' errors. I have re installed minetest, yet the errors continue.
