It was quite a while ago, but I posted better fire mod alongside with better TNT mod here. Could that be included? (Yes, now I want to work on MiniTest, Adam ;)

I am checking out fire mod and your tnt mod is the one currently used. Sorry but i am not going to add the fire cause default is mor like minecrafts. Also how d i make your tnt in creative.

Default fire like Minecraft's?
In MC fire is aligned to surfaces...

This is getting more awesome by the minute! When will 3D players and camera tilt be added? Also, it may sound like a small thing, but farming items are in squares so the top-down view in minecraft looks like this:

While the minetest top-down view looks lke this:

Also, the throwing mod for bows and arrows is very different from minecraft.

Watch this and find that minecraft's bows were once very similar to minetest ones: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_-vFa-IyB8
(It's actually the other way round, but who cares ;)

One thing I was thinking of is birch trees. One of the things that I wanted it to do was to replace regular trees at a random interval, I could do it by using a random number in the mapgen.lua to see whether a tree is a birch tree or not. What do you think?

it is on my list but others are priority

by **Evergreen** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 17:40

I could try it, and if it works, I could put it up for you to include.

by **jojoa1997** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 18:24

OK I was going to use the one from real test but if you can make them like minecraft be my guest. Also where are the trees defined in defualt

by **Evergreen** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 18:43

Funny, I thought treegen was in mapgen.lua, it was last time a I checked. I'll try and find the file.

Good luck. Btw, it was never in mapgen.lua.

Its in treegen.cpp. If you want to spawn your own tree shapes write your own ABM and remove the sapling alias to disable the ABM in content_abm.cpp.

What about having retextured jungletrees as birches? it must be easier

by **Evergreen** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 19:05

Hmm, once again that brings me to the problem of spawning them when the world generates. And to Mito, that would mean no jungletrees.

by **jojoa1997** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 19:11

i plan on not changing the current trees and also i already have a mod that does what i want. i just have to rename , retexture, and recode some of it.

by **neron** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 19:15

Another thing I noticed is that apples are visible in the trees. In minecraft, apples are not visible - they randomly appear when dropped from trees.

by **jojoa1997** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 19:17

ok thanks changed on local copy. guys i just started actually playing survival minecraft so stuff like that i wont know
P.S, Thanks i wondered why i never saw that apples

The free minecraft?

by **jojoa1997** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 19:18

No i mean i have been always playing on creative. I have the full minecraft

by **neron** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 19:20

Great! Do you still want me to post changes? I found a few more.

by **jojoa1997** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 19:23

Sure but maybe keep it to one post and send me pms when you change something so i can see it all in one place and the topic wont be as cluttered

by **neron** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 20:05

Ok. I'll just keep editing this post.
Things to make minitest closer to minecraft:
Redstone ore needs to emit light and particles when hit.
Apples should not be visible in trees, but drop when trees are cut.
Ender Chest is called "WiFi chest" when hovered over with the mouse.
Redstone wire does not emit particles.
Both redstone and normal torches are not 3D and do not emit particles.
Cart texture is not minecraft - ?
Diamond and chainmail armor do not exist.
3D player does not exist - 3D player preview in inventory window is what minecraft has

Cotton seeds need to be removed http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/File:AllSeeds.png
Minecraft-like textures are available here: http://ubuntuone.com/0TLUEZ0UWlVfByAmyYCVSq (some things were not using mc textures)
Water does not push items and player or have bubbles
Hunger is not added
XP and enchantment?

====
This is just a list of bugs/improvements I find - I think you're project is great, keep up the awesome work!

by **neron** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 20:08

BTW, can you use GitHub, so your improvements are automatically updated? Or maybe sourceforge which allows similar svn commit stuff?

by **jojoa1997** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 20:12

Redstone ore needs to emit light and particles when hit.

i dont know how to do particles and the emit light i dont know how to get it done.

Apples should not be visible in trees, but drop when trees are cut.
Ender Chest is called "WiFi chest" when hovered over with the mouse.

already done

Redstone wire does not emit particles.
Both redstone and normal torches are not 3D and do not emit particles.

same thing with particles and i cant make smooth angled nodeboxes so i think i will leave them the way they are.

Cart texture is not minecraft - ?
Diamond and chainmail armor do not exist.

working on it

3D player does not exist - 3D player preview in inventory window is what minecraft has

done

by **neron** » Thu Apr 25, 2013 20:16

Would this help with particles? I must confess I don't know much about lua programming. Edit: I know nothing about lua programming. :D

thanks and the wiki is a minecrafters best friend. for real i think they should add a guide (crafting) of either recipes or some oher way. so should minetest.
