That's not really a bug, it's a typo that you put it.. you brightened the grass top texture.

i added a brightened version for mesecon conducting nodes based on a lot of default nodes. they are only brightened when receiving a signal. but the default node is not replaced
it also happened only to grass, dirt and desert sand and it was somehow gone after i had enabled the quartz mod.
you can find it here and look how it is done.

The pictures are a bit small and the links effectively broken - at least they don't really show an image on the page they lead to (perhaps they would with JavaScript, but as that's not needed for viewing images, I'm certainly not going to allow it in my browser). Can you use forum attachment? That at least allows for up to three viewable images :-)

I'm also intrested in visiting the server. The videos looked promising. Maybe you can allow for visitors without interact for sightseeing.

.... i dont know how to post a screen shot.

someone HELP!

Put upload your screenshot as an attachment (click add to actually upload it)

Then copy the link to the file and put in between [img]these without the space.[/i mg]

I won't lie, I'm mostly posting a screenshot of my desktop.

Why do you have only 800x600 pixels?

Because I like to run this CRT at 100 Hz.

Is that Windows 10? Or a Linux distro?

that does not look like windows 10, even i don't have windows at all

The window buttons are Windows 10 themed, you are correct. The xfwm4 theme is "NeXT". GTK is OneStepBack, a NeXTSTEP themed... theme. Distro is Debian Sid GNU/Linux.

Quick draft of possible dark forum theme:

you use an ati graphics card, don't you?

Playing minetest with 100Hz only works if you change wanted_fps to 100 and max_fps to 100

l want to have that dark theme

I too would like the dark theme!

I use an ATI graphics card in that machine, yes. Sometimes I use fglrx (non-free), and sometimes I use radeon (free). It depends on the game. I don't run at 100 Hz for Minetest, but instead any fine engine that accepts commands such as:

That's Quake. :)

You play DOS Quake, too :)
Modern source ports use commands more like cl_maxfps (Darkplaces.)

e-everamzah, you are alive! :D
How are you doing?

To avoid offtopic:

I hate wasting space on toolbars. I use openbox with nothing but a background image (not that I see it much). Anything I use frequently is hotkeyed. The rest is on a pop-up menu tied to the windoze key, although truthfully I tend to start a lot of programs from shell since I always have at least one xterm/screen open. It saves time over opening files graphically.

l only managed to install fglrx and uninstall it, l kept it uninstalled because hardware accelerated X server didn't work when it was installed.
How can you use both (fglrx only for games and radeon for e.g. firefox)?



using driconf and radeon l can enable 2d antialiasing for minetest, but not 3d antialiasing, in sauerbraten the 3d one works l think.

everamzah wrote:Composting must be off for Minetest, I find. I don't know the difference between 3D and 2D anti-aliasing. To use either driver in Debian, for example, issue # dpkg-reconfigure -phigh fglrx-driver or # update-alternatives --config glx --- X will only work with fglrx if xorg.conf is present and configured (hint: aticonfig --initial), otherwise radeon will work if xorg.conf is missing. I think. It's obviously finicky at best, and TBH I have no idea how it actually works behind the scenes, but I always do have both present and installed.

If you press ctrl+alt+f1, do you need to wait until the console appears or does it appear immediately?
If you need to wait, fglrx is used l think.
So if l want to switch to radeon from fglrx l only need to temporarily rename the xorg.conf file?
And does fglrx always become loaded when booting taking a bit time?

Everyone has such amazing builds... so here is one of mine ;3

If this gets merged (#3393) you can name any object whatever you want :)

I like that, hope it gets merged

Did you take pictures of a potato and then use photogrammetry and import it to minetest as a giant potato using default nodes and mipmapping to make it look brown this way?
