FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I am somewhat new to Minetest, love the base game, but want a challenge for me and my kids ( I got a bunch of 'em ). Problem is, I don't want all the scary undead magical stuff (reason for not wanting MC in the house). What are my options if I just want natural enemies (other humans, bears, wolves, etc.)? I see MOBF, but couldn't get the menu to work and there doesn't seem like there is a plethora of information for noobs to use.

Does anyone have a pre-configured Minetest server to download with all of the bugs worked out so I don't have to spend my afternoon working through LUA issues?

Looking towards being a contributing member of this forum and not a leech. :)

Try mobs redo. Just disable the mobs you don't want.

If you want intense challenge, give these a try:

How do you disable specific ones?

In the main menu click on the world and then click configure. In the list of mods go to mobs. Click the mob you want disabled and at the top click disable.

That only works for Animals Modpack (mobf). I would recommend Mobs_Redo as well, but I edit the blood texture as well so that it doesn't show up.

If you want to disable specific mobs then I can edit the code for you.

Note: adding the following to your minetest.conf file disabled the blood in mobs redo without editing texture files:

mobs_disable_blood = true

@TenPlus1 but that also disables the dirt particles and such, which are actually pretty cool.

you could also replace the blood drop texture with stars or rubberducks.

benrob : dirt particles ??? that setting is mobs mob specific and only for blood effects, nothing else.
