[Mod] Stained Glass [1.2] [stained_glass] - new alpha suppor

by doyousketch2 » Sun Feb 24, 2013 19:19

Doyousketch2's Stained Glass mod

Download from VanessaE's repo: https://github.com/VanessaE/stained_gla ... master.zip
... or browse the code: https://github.com/VanessaE/stained_glass
For the 0.4.15-stable version (no hardware coloring), get this ZIP file.

New version! Alpha channel support.

Image

Trick your underground lair out in a futuristic discotheque theme!
- or - Make some awesome Lite-Brite style images!

Dependencies: Calinou's More Blocks, unifieddyes, and a Minetest engine build newer than 2017-01-23.

To Install:

Unzip the mod file you just downloaded.

it should be something like: Doyousketch2-stained_glass-1.1.zip
- or - stained_glass-master.zip, depending on where you downloaded it from.

rename the new folder that looks like: Doyousketch2-stained_glass-1.1
- or - stained_glass-master to simply read "stained_glass"

then move it into your Minetest mods folder.

===============================

To get the colors, simply place a Moreblocks Super Glow Glass or Trap Super Glow Glass, then wield some dye and punch the glass to change its color. Digging one of these colorized blocks gives you back the un-colored version you originally placed and the dye you used to color it.

To get the light or faint shades, place a Super/Trap Super Glow Glass, dye it as above, then right-click on it while wielding the Moreblocks sweeper once or twice, to "brush off" some of the color with each sweep. Digging one of these gives you back the un-colored version and the dye that was originally there before brushing.

This mod uses the entire Unified Dyes palette, and provides a few extra nodes to create the "light" and "faint" shades.

For color wool-like blocks, use Jordach's cotton mod. You may also want to consider Unified Bricks, but that one's buggy (some of the bricks come back unknown when mined).

Just build a basic structure, and add random decorating blocks in some sort of somewhat-sane pattern. Works fine for me!


--Resume on-topic mode--

Really like the idea of stained glass, Is there any way to make it take up less of the creative menu though?

Remove it from the creative inventory and create a node which you can right click to get a list of all the stained nodes. :P

Hi, I installed your mod, but... Minetest crashes on server startup, and doesn't leave any useful logs. I commented first loop in init.lua and then Minetest starts normally, but - of course - with much less of stained_glass blocks. Any idea?

@hmmmm
How do you make semitransparent glass? Are you making a new mod? I'm building "cathetral" so I need stained glass.

Hes a core dev, so you can guess that he changed the engine.

And I was so excited it's possible :( So I'm back to square one. Any idea why Minetest crashes during server startup? Is it possible I have to many mods (nodes) or something? Is there any limit of nodes/items?

Since 0.4.5 or 0.4.6 when a mod doesn't work anymore, my minetest quits (crashes?) while starting up, not giving an error. Then, looking in my debug, I can see somethings' not working properly in a mod. Repairing the mod solves the 'problem'.

Fantastic :| I don't see any useful ERROR lines or something in the debug.txt. Debugging stops when Minetest crashes without dropping any errors (for stained_glass) to file. If I remove huge mod like homedecor for example, stained_glass work properly. I no have idea what's wrong :( Help.

It appears that you are trying to use too many mods, and the number of registered nodes is greater than 4096.

Thanks hmmmm. Was afraid of that. Is there a way to increase the limit of registered nodes? I guess I'll have to dig in the core files...

Knew people liked to keep nodes down, didn't know there was a 4096 limit.

Anyway, VanessaE was kind enough to update code to use alpha channel now so it basically looks like what hmmmm posted.

You can find the new version at the same github link above.

I think it would be a good idea if that node limit was at least doubled.

It would be good if more blocks could be defined, yes. But right now, having lots of them is a huge problem at least for my hardware. I had to unset preload_item_visuals. Moreblocks and moretrees with its stairplus-nodes took about two minutes to render before game start :-/ Without that option, the game was up in 10 seconds. Maybe only nodes that are expected to be frequent ought to be pre-rendered (like: everything in default).
A list of my mods can be found here.

Sketch: You should check the latest changes to Unified Dyes. It's been rewritten to base itself around the default dye mod, so some of your recipes may need to be changed.
