Dev snapshot build 0.4.dev-20120320
March 20th, 2012 by celeron55
This fixes the huge directory structure of the previous version to be more manageable (in addition to a few other small things).

Additional mods now go in
mods/mesetint/
and that directory is included in the package. (more info)

Somebody asked about texture packs – they aren’t properly supported currently, but you can try to put the textures (without any mod directories or anything) in textures/base/pack/ and see what happens. Or use the texture_path setting in minetest.conf.

Aand to continue listing of the modding API changes: One of the other important things that has changed is that all LuaEntities have a HP value accessible by set_hp and get_hp, and the maximum hp is set in the definition as the value hp_max. Also entities have “armor groups”. See the “experimental:dummyball” in experimental/init.lua for an implementation example.

some of the folders ae actually more accessible, mods and such. you will have to manually delete still i guess, thats weird because it worked for me: / and you can change the block loading radius and stuff to optimize the game for your pc through the config file.

Hi,

I find that there are too many folder, same if it's more accessible is annoying the version 0.4 20120318 is better.

I have it installed on linux. Where do I have to put mods instead of in "~/.minetest/usermods/"?
I tried putting them in "~/.minetest/server/games/mesetint/mods/", but then it doesn't look in "/usr/share/minetest/server/games/mesetint/mods" where the default mods are. I could just copy the default mods into "~/.minetest/server/games/mesetint/mods/", but then I'll have to update them manually every new version (I receive updates often because I'm on ubuntu development ppa). It'd be better if it worked like in the previous version, with "~/.minetest/usermods/" (or equivalent)

EDIT: Oooops, the post got cut. Re-writting it...
EDIT2: Fixed

I compile and run mine right off the desktop of my user account in Ubuntu for the server without any hitches.

Updated my install notes for the current release:

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: Folders & Files required to move from previous install minetest.conf Depending on version: data/mods or /minetest4/games/mesetint/mods Entire world directory Start new build and migrate Backup the current directory and move the contents to the side Run Minetest:Backup script mv minetest4 minetest4_preupdate Get the build and compile in its own directory wget minetestc55_201203202107-0~1301~maverick1.tar.gz tar -zxvf minetestc55_201203202107-0~1301~maverick1.tar.gz mv recipe-201203202107-0~\{revno\}/ minetest4_build cd minetest4_build cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1 make -j2 Create new minetest4 directory and copy essential files from minetest4_preupdate into it mkdir minetest4 copy bin, games, builtin folder from minetest4_build to minetest4 copy minetest.conf and mods from minetest4_prebuild to minetest4/minetest4/games/mesetint/mods Be careful not to migrate the following mod directories: bucket, default, legacy, experimental, give_initial_stuff Run bin/minetestserver and verify all the mods work correctly

I do not yet run a custom texture pack on the server side, otherwise I've got what I believe is a clean install right of a compile environment.
