Does it work anywhere? I couldn't figure out how to get it to work in GNU/Linux either.

Its broken in a system wide installation in Linux too (this is fixed in current dev version already).

PilzAdam, could you try making a windows build with a modification to:
https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/src/serverlist.cpp#L56

replacing

with


and see if the favorites list works for windows users then? (Other uses of ifstream/ofstream such as reading minetest.conf do not use std::ios::binary: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/src/settings.h#L169).

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

std::ifstream istream(path.c_str(), std::ios::binary);

I rebooted into windows xp and this works (I joined 2 servers and they both appeared in the server favorites list). When I compiled on linux with that change, the server favorites list continues to work fine, so I think you could pull request the fix to the main repository.
