How can mod info (for installed mods) be passed to the mod manager? E.g. my streetmod doesn't have a screenshot and no modinfo.

Question: Why aren't 6d logs and cacti on the changelog? (Vanessae and Me)

Because the changelog is horribly outdated, and nobody cares to update it?

THIS, IS, AWESOME!!!!!!
I lost interest in Minetest for a couple of years and... I am still not really paying much attention. I rarely browse these forums anymore but it's nice to see old faces.

Sad that MGv7 couldn't make it. However, Entity duplication is is fixed so YAAAAY for mobs!

My humble review!
negatives:
* The sound enhancement caused the reduction in loading of mods
* The main menu is complex.
positives:
* Sounds of digging and riding cute
* Facilitated search for servers (added description)

Summary:
There was no improvement. There was no overshoot.

Anyway thank the developers.
We can not forget the technical advances.

I find this to be a very accurate review. All in all, it is good to finally see 0.4.8 out.

The map gen is a little weird i think. I don't know if it is intended or just another bug.
