FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I only get a maximum of 3 FPS when playing the game. The minimum is 1 FPS.
So for all the developorers, maintainers, administrators, etc. I want say one thing:
Get minetest together and faster.

An admirable thing in minetest is the lightness that provides the computer system.
If you were to classify the positive points of the game, the speed would be the first.

thats funny... i get 64 fps max and 20 minimum. Its not MT's fault, its probably your computer, and your settings.. Did u un-check shaders?

Check which processor you have got, I'm interested if it has to do with the core-count :)

How do i see which processor i am using? I'm using a laptop with debian on it.

I get ~24fps (+/-7) on average with 0.4.8 on Debian Testing on a Netbook with 1.6GHz Single Core Atom. (No Mods) And one or two frames less with some mods. But huge mods like MOB can make the game <15fps.

No shader, fancy trees etc. just minimal graphic.

Use in the terminal it gives you and us the most detail overlook. (And it is all text).

It says
procesor:0

You have only one processor.

It is lightweight enough to run on fairly old hardware. It currently runs playably on a laptop with Intel 945GM graphics. Though, as for the CPU, dualcore is recommended.

CPU, dualcore

Even then, my P4 ran MT at fairly 30 FPS. Did you install your graphic drivers?

I installed the hardware, I don't know about software ones.

yeah, you've obviously got something wrong somewhere

maybe check the version of opengl? - it usually says at the top

also r for range needs to be off

my old asus netbook (Asus EeePC 1005HA Seashell) has only one core processor (intel atom N270 32bit single-core), a whopping 1Gb of memory, and a whacked old intel graphics chip (Intel GMA 850 integrated graphics) that will only use opengl 1.4 and it still gets 15-20 with smooth lighting, shaders and particles off

It does not tell me the version of opengl.

Read the title of the MT-windows and put in here what you can see

I really wonder how you can do that. i only can reach a canstant count of 20 FPS with

your processor and graphic card is half as good as mine, I really don't understand :/

I think, I do.

Drivers? OS?
I'd be "interested to make some light into the darkness".

Earlier I was using KDE, which is VERY LAGGY. I changed it to XFCE, and now it is VERY FAST(50-60FPS)

If you want both to be the fastest possible, disable compositing/"desktop effects".

If you're low on FPS, you will want to disable shaders, fancy trees and maybe smooth lighting.

A huge change like that could not be brought about by just changing the DE. I guess Mikhail must have done something else too.

KDE is not "laggy", your hardware just cant handle it.
