FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I often created mods for Minetest, even though for private using. Recently I had an idea how I can make the modding easier.

I have good programming skills in the programming language Delphi/Pascal, so I began to make a program, where you can create and edit Minestest mods on a userfriendly way. I will call it Minetest ModStudio and want to release!

There is an assistent to create mods without programming skills, but you can edit LUA-Files with a professional Syntax-Highlightning-Editor. It will be available in English and German.



What's your opinion?

In a few weeks it will coming out. See you later!

Here is another screenshot of the software:

very interesting +1

together with the "big mod APIs" like mobs redo, farming redo and trees_lib, this could be an awesome tool to add new content.
(like a map editor in strategy games)

"despends.txt"

I guess it is running under Windows only ?

If Delphi is anything like FreePascal it'll support as many platforms as possible.

The thing I don't like about Delphi is that I believe it's neither free nor open source.

Yeah, that's a typing mistake, sorry... :/

It will running on Linux and Mac maybe too... I have to compile it for Linux too. The thing is, I don't have a mac but I will find a solution.
