While mining over a period of about 8 min, I found at least a dozen undefined nodes. I have also been noticing that the caves are oddly structured, and close together.

If the snow/ice is meant for a future snow biome, does that mean it's not there now? I wasn't sure if I was just unlucky trying to find it.....

You need to generate jungles, wich can be done by adding "v6_jungles" to mg_flags in minetest.conf



Can you explain this a little more for me ( I'm a little slow :o( about things like this ) ... maybe an example to work by ????

thank you :o)

My mg_flags line looks like this:
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
mg_flags = trees, caves, v6_jungles, dungeons

Just put this in minetest.conf and create a new world. Changing it without creating worlds doesnt affect anything.

Correct they're not there now, the new nodes are for the future mapgen V7 which has a new biome system.

Yes, but you will need to remove the # from the start of the line.

If this is in your minetest.conf, you'll need to remove the # to get it working (and create a new world).


A bit more info:
In minetest.conf.example you'll find all lines with a # in front of it. You can choose to copy some of them and then paste them in your minetest.conf. Get them working by removing the #.

Some lines you will not need to remove the #'s. For example:
# Map generation attributes. Currently supported: trees, caves, flat, v6_biome_blend, v6_jungles, dungeons
It's just explaining what possibilities there are, it isn't a command.

Some are already working default (you don't see them in your minetest.conf, but already working), like the map generation. You only need to copy them in your minetest.conf when you want different values (you want v6_jungles and dungeons as an extra in your world)

Edit: After 14 hours without a reply beaten by 7 minutes :-)

Nice, but still as unstable on my PC as 0.4.4 was. Gotta find another PC to test on.

I was having some crashing problems on my Windows XP machine. I updated my graphics driver and haven't had a single crash since. I do still occasionally experience slow downs in my framerate (Yes, I did download the version that supposedly fixes this and it's better but still I can drop into the teens from the 50's and 60's) but if I stand still for a few moments, the framerate creeps back up. I use a Nvidia card and updated drivers seem to have eliminated the crashes for me.

The framerate comes back up because minetest has dynamic view distance adjustment based on the framerate. So if the framerate is too slow, it will gradually reduce the view distance until it's back up to the desired rate.

In $path_user/sounds, i.e. minetest/sounds/ in run_in_place and ~/.minetest/sounds/ in globally installed Linux versions.

Not all settings are written by default to minetest.conf. Copy them from minetest.conf.example if you need them (dont forget to remove the # at the beginning of the line).

I've had a problem with overpopulation of deserts in the last couple of builds and the lack of flat(ter) land to build something other than a 6x4 1-room house.

Not anything huge, but just a minuscule note.

Increase "mgv6_freq_desert" in minetest.conf a bit to make deserts more rare.

Cool! Can't Wait to Try This Out. But do Servers Get updated Too?

Servers usually update to the latest without problems, however, some don't because of mods that lose support or are just simply outdated.
