FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hi! This is the first mod I have made for minetest. It is heavily based on the quartz mod and it adds emeralds to minetest. For more information and the download link, read below. Hope you like it, and don't hesitate to give feedback and/or suggestions!

Emeralds Mod

This mod adds emerald ore and some decorative blocks to minetest. It has been made by cloning the textures and the code of the quartz mod and modifying them. Credit for the original code and textures goes to the author of the quartz mod. I changed the code and names to emerald and I redesigned the textures to look like emerald. Emeralds are twice as rare as quartz but that's not much. Maybe I will add emerald weapons and emerald tools in the future.

I used URL instead of Img because for some reason when I try to do that it just displays "Image".

I don't really get what are texture modifiers and do I really need them ?

And, I plan to release my mod in a few day. I may continue to work on it after that, I don't know if I will, but I guess I would like to add emerald sword and tools and maybe even armor.

you have to rightclick the image and choose show graphics and use this link (i dont know how its named in english, in german its "Grafik anzeigen")

Ok thanks. I'll try it the next time I post pictures. By the way, today I'm going to ask for my mod to be moved and released to the "Released Mods" section.

This mod is now officially released! When I have a moment, I will work on adding emerald tools and sword and perhaps armor.
