edit your minetest.conf file add following line to disable atlas

enable_texture_atlas = false

What kind of problems? Can you post a screenshot?
Also, are you using Windows or Linux?
What is your graphics card Vendor + Model?
Have you the latest drivers for your card?

Sometimes any blocks are transparent.
All users have this problem.
I can't post a screenshot because i can't actuali reproduce the problem.

The problem is solved enabling the Atlas, but if is full, doesn't work.

Then you may fix it by either removing some mods.
Maybe your gfx card can't cope with that many textures.
In particular, review the use of mods that have lots of textures, like unifiedbricks, unifieddyes, coloredwoods, and the like.

Can't i enlarge the Atlas dimension?

Try disabling shaders in the Settings menu.

But there's no way to enlarge the Atlas dimension?
I play minetest in my server (vps), and i'm not sure if the atlas full is a problem of the client or of the server.

A full Texture Atlas is not a big problem

I've readed this post:

This is caused by having a lot of texture files. I think the Atlas is like a cache of the textures. Maybe someone else can elaborate. You can increase the size by changing line 796 in tile.cpp. This should most likely be made with a dynamic size (or as a conf file setting) to fit the large number of mods being made.

But where is the tile.cpp? This change work on the client or on the server?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I don't understand if the Atlas full is a client or a server problem.

tile.cpp is in the src/ folder. After editing you have to compile the game.
And the full atlas is an client problem.
