Is there a way to convert mods from minecraft to minetest?

by koolthing123 » Wed Apr 15, 2015 16:18

I really wish there was a port of mo's creatures, is there a way i could actually do that?
i know there are some mobs already created to minetest but im sorry to tell, it doesnt look good at all.

You can convert all meshes to Minetest by copying them to your new mob mod.
The problem might be the Java -> Lua conversion.

Converting between languages is easy (as in there are a lot of tools) but the problem will be the massive difference in code structure. You could easily get the models and graphics though.

But you might not be allowed to use them in own mod releaes (depends on Mo’Creatures license).
