FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

My map is not finished yet, but after almost a half a year I do not want to deprive you any longer.
Look at it, it's worth it.

There are no screenshots because of the stimulus on the map is in the exploration.

To run the map please copy the folder to your minetest folder, it is not necessary to install additional mods.

Here are some Screens (Please take into account that these images represent less than 50% of the map):

Ik there are no screenshots, but no screenshots, no download. Also, there is no set time to when the next version of minetest comes out. And if that is a url shortener, please keep the original link.

Then pick another site like Dropbox.

I personally don't download anything that:
- Uses an URL shortener
- Links to a site with ads (like Mediafire, or another site thru an adfly link)

I'm sure many users here feel the same.

If you want to get more downloads, make it easier for others by providing direct links to the content (instead of a link to a download page).

I am starting to post my mods and textre packs in Mediafire, but only because my (2gb) dropbox is full, and I somehow have got 10gb free extra space on mediafire.

I don't like URL shorteners either. Mediafire is okay because I can download it with one click there. Adf.ly is horrible, even after allowing everything, it wanted me to download an exe which I guess would then download the file I wanted. I said to heck with that and ran away from that service and haven't clicked any links that take me back since.

Okay, you must have clicked an ad link. You have to wait 10 seconds, and then it will say continue to link in the top right corner. Also, I suggest you get adblock. I found a really good one, and I have never gone back.

Is it possible that you could upload it to a different site? Filesnack won't load for me.

Just saw your reply to my post, sometimes the new posts seem to fall through the cracks and I never see them as new posts on the new posts page.

I have noScript and adblock but I have adblock without any subscriptions because I only really care about blocking the super obnoxious ones or the really embarrassing porn ones. Besides noScript tends to block almost all of the ads anyway because most ads nowadays requires javascript or some other flashy bandwidth hogging crap that is a potential virus vector.

this looks very nice
Good Job!

I wish there was a way to combine maps and pieces of maps. That way, I could put this creation in a map of my own making.

It is possible on the database level. It's not an automatic process though - you need to know where you want to put it and how large each of your maps actually is. If you don't take enough care there and parts of both maps overlap afterwards, it's hard to tell which chunk (16x16x16 nodes) "wins". Also mods/nodes that rely on position data will require manual work (travelnet, node ownership, ...). VanessaE has put the necessary steps into a semi-automatic shell script for unix systems.
