I just noticed that minetest.conf (Not example file) wasnt in my 0.4.7 directory. Could anyone give minetest.conf to me please?

Thanks. :3

It should generate automatically if you edit some settings in the settings tab, at least I think so.

Just running Minetest generates one.

And if not, toggle the shaders, close minetest. Restart minetest and toggle it again. You keep your settings and the minetest.conf should exist.

Or crate a file and name it minetest.conf

Tried both things. Nothing.

If someone tells me the default minetest.conf settings, this issue WILL be solved. :D

Hmf. Maybe not. xD.

Copy minetest.conf.example to a new file named minetest.conf or rename minetest.conf.example to minetest.conf

Then what?

Ah. That wont exactly work. EXAMPLE file.

Here a copy of my minetest.conf

Its alright now. Downloaded 0.4.5, took the minetest.conf from that, thanks, webdesigner, some stuff is useful in there for me! :D.

The Default minetest.conf is empty

Rhys wrote:Ah. That wont exactly work. EXAMPLE file.

The example file contains most of the options commented out with #, so it is usable as it is.

Just to clarify a few things:

1)
A) Minetest DOES NOT READ minetest.conf.EXAMPLE.
B) Windows sometimes hides all file extensions, so things such as minetest.conf might read as "minetest" which then the example becomes "minetest.conf", which is clearly confusing users.

2) If the minetest.conf file is empty, dont add:
The hash is a comment, so Minetest WILL NOT enable that feature, to disable damage, you will need to put:
Notice that the # is missing from the start of the boolean.

3) Any text editor can create, read and modify the conf file. Notepad, Wordpad, Notepad++ and even Word will read the conf file. To create one in Notepad / Wordpad, you simply make a new text document, then save as, then change "file type" to All documents, then type minetest.conf in the file name, as the .conf will create minetest with the file extension conf, then save it in the root directory of your Minetest, whether it's installed to .minetest or C:\Users\FooBar\Desktop\minetest-0.4.7\

I dont have a minetest conf either :P
