FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

When it's done, it's done.

Only if your close enough to die from the blast, though.

in my small hack, I plugged connected glass ... I never understood why not enter the connected glass, obsidian, glass and bread, in the vanilla. Arrange the xpanes, and Minetest finally allow you to build more complex structures! in MoreBlocks the stairs with a 90-degree block are there, but the rest do not care.

In future releases, you will add:

- The items (hoe, sword, pickaxe, shovel), are too small! you can magnify the items? the look and feel better;) without overloading the game engine.

- Inventory, real-time search, without pressing the button "?"

- Snow stair?

- Ice Stair?

- Mossy Cobblestone Stair?

- Mossy Slab

- Coloured glass?

- Crafting Table?

- The mapgen v5 and v6 be updated, to create new game modes?!? The v7 is more advanced than the others, I the v5 and v6 do not use it anymore. I think it is a good idea.

Those would be just decor blocks which does nothing useful nor they introduce new mechanics which would make game more interesting to play. Not useless but there are plenty things higher priority IMO.

This is intentional.

Maaaan, why do you keep adding strings even when release is very close? Does nobody think of the translators? :O
Yes, it just happened again.

The whole “decication” strings in the credits section are new, probably have been added after the Weblate strings have been pulled and maybe those are not even marked for translation. (But I do think this dedication is very attentive. You should have come up with the idea earlier. Or remove the strings from Minetest, and write it in release announcement instead.).

Will the change list be updated when 0.4.14 releases? Or is there more up to date information elsewhere?

So where do we get this when it's released? Compile from github?

Once stable is updated it will be built for various system and pushed to the downloads page, as well as several distros' package repos.

Great, thanks!

If you're on a *buntu Linux, the PPA is minimal effort and gets updates on the day of release.

But not all options are compiled, like redis support.

Release? Its the 11th...

The release has been delayed due to a blocker bug. Current target is the 14th, but the release might happen earlier or later depending on when the bug can be fixed.

Ahhh... Was wondering if I was too early or if there was a bug... Thank you.

The bug has been fixed now, there's a pull request.

Release process starts today (Sunday) but we need someone to check Windows builds on MSVC, talk to us in IRC freenode #minetest-dev channel.

I would like to test, but it seems Im not allowed to talk in #minetest-dev chanel

[08:52] == Cannot send to channel: #minetest-dev

You need an IRC chat client, such as XChat, to be able to speak in dev channel.

I'd recommend Hexchat over Xchat, as the former is maintained and up to date.

0.4.14 is now released, but WIndows MSVC builds come later.

Um I want to aks u a question about installing minetest on my iPhone and how to do it if u can help plz do not hesitate to tell me

Sadly, Minetest does not run on iOS.

You only have to compile it, in a way that runs in iOS...
Likely you make a way to compile it in Android

Whilst you can technically run minetest on android, you are not legally allowed to put it on the app store. Please do not encourage devs that put ad ridden versions on illegally

Wait, what? Minetest is banned from Google Play? Are you sure? What for? If you would have said it was for iOS, then I would have immediately believed you (“Ewwww! Free software. We don't want that.”). But Google Play? No way!

But in any case, there is also F-Droid for Android.

Wuzzy that was my first reaction.

The question i think is whether app store and play store policies are compatible with lgpl requirements...
