Are there specific instructions for installing the server component from git anywhere? Whenever I compile from git this evening I get "ERROR[main]: Subgame [] could not be found." which I understand to be due to the repo split.

I've never had any issues using the stable releases and I see earlier in the thread that these are not going to be continued.

Thanks,
Bob

Yeah, that sucks. I think the people running the show in Celeron55's place have something against decent operating systems, or something.

Download minetest_game and put it in the games directory. That should fix the issue.

EDIT: Also, in instructions are in Minetest's README.txt file.

Thanks, found it after the post and poking around. Just a little frustrating after getting to a point with the game where it's not a chore to keep it running and something changes. I will say that now that I know how to do this, I can see where this is easier than using the stable release package repository.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all: cd <install directory> git clone git://github.com/minetest/minetest.git cd minetest cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1 make -j2 cd games git clone git://github.com/minetest/minetest_game.git cd ../bin ./minetestserver

If you are using windows with directx you have turn them off because they are written in GLSL and only OpenGL supports this language.

why??

The fire mod works fine (its the same as the one from 0.4.4, 0.4.3, ...) but there are problems with sending many changed nodes from the server to the client in the latest dev version of minetest.

fire mod and minetest 0.4.5 vanilla works fine.. but not with the latest dev-build from PilzAdam... !!!
maybe a bug?

Hey guys, I was working on a Debian package but unfortunately, I haven't had much time to update it to 0.4.5 recently due to school work. Anyway, I'll upload it to https://mentors.debian.net/package/minetest when its done.

I'm sorry to drop the ball like this, but I'm not going to be able to put out the package I was planning. Things have been quite hectic lately, and quite frankly, I need a break.

Of course, I can't actually have the break I need, but I can drop a few of my activities for a while. I'm probably going to step away from Minetest for about a week at least.

Either in the settings menu disable "Shaders" or in minetest.conf set enable_shaders = 0

In minetest 0.4.5 the doors can not be opened

People were complaining that it was too hard to take down doors, because when you start mining them, they flip open or closed. So now you use right click to open doors. No more issues.
