hi,all. I found something strange as running minetest client in my child's windowsXP/7. In screenshoot, some item's icon are not correct,for example, glass but have furnace's icon;leaves have lava's icon.

Is anybody running minetest on windows like me?

server:(archlinux,build from ABS)
$ minetest --version
Minetest 0.4.9
Using Irrlicht 1.8.1
Build info: VER=0.4.9 BUILD_TYPE=Release RUN_IN_PLACE=0 USE_GETTEXT=0 USE_SOUND=1 USE_CURL=1 USE_FREETYPE=0 USE_LUAJIT=0 STATIC_SHAREDIR=/usr/share/minetest

client:0.4.9 (download from minetest.net)

Ps. this situation never happen in my archlinux's minetest client.

thx,but it seems only for o.4.6 ? i had try to create "default" folder in minetest 0.4.9's directory,and add init.lua just like that thread's solve. But still happen.

Maybe it is because of low video ram .

Here's another, maybe more helpful link:

As far as I followed the discussion, the problem happens with Windows XP and Windows 7 (starters edition?) and/or with low RAM and/or a 'low' graphic card (although someone can also miss up to date drivers).

The problem can sometimes be bypassed (depending on the minetest version and the mods?).

Try disabling "preload item visuals" (in the settings tab). If that doesnt help then you just have too low vram.
