FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

We make many option changes in minetest.conf but i think some importtant setting should be in the game menu settings menu. For exp.

Resolution options
Full screen checkbox
Select language
Enable fog
View distance

It would be nice if the items in the inventory were scaled better. By default they are ALMOST scaled to 200%, but there are some pixels that are messed up, and it looks weird. I could do some testing to determine what GUI scale works best, but IDK if that affects all formspecs.

I think we cand handle this by preconfigured resolution config files. For exp

There should be config files for all possible resolutions for exp 1280.cfg , 640.cfg, 1080.cfg....

1280.cfg :When we select 1280x720 resolution it calls 1280.cfg file and sets 1280x720 with %xxa manu scale and compatible textures

There currently are a lot of issues, and this is an important one. Still, there are other things that are higher on the dev's lists. RealBadAngel has got shaders going for him, and paramat has his hands full with the magpens. Some people might be able to do it, but they probably have another project to do. I am trying to learn c++ and such (especially the Minetest lingo) so I can make some changes myself, and turn my wishes into a reality.

There is a possibility of Fullscreening though... that one is a highly requested feature.

Already built, waiting for merge. See minetest#1990.

Resolution is being worked on.

Definitely ! For example : mapgen parameters : What about checkboxes with "Enable jungles", "Enable dungeons" ?
View distance can be set in-game by pressing + or - on the numpad.
Enable fog : F3.

I think all the minetest.conf options should be in the menu. it would just be a list of the options, with checkboxes.

Something like this, but more user friendly.
