FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hi all!
This is my first ever post in the mine test forums, but I downloaded minetest quiet a while back, but I don't play much because I've been having problems that are putting me off the game.
There is a bug, that doesn't put items in my inventory. They're there, but they're invisible, I can use them to build... but can't even see it (in the inventory only). I can only see a few blocks.
It's not that I can't see buildings and the terrain, it's that I don't have any blocks, and when I do, they don't show themselves on the inventory. If you hover over the right slot you may be able to see the name of the block, but other than that, you can't see anything. I hope this post gets seen by a developer, please help, so I can enjoy this game...

Regards,
e-arif

Hello,

First of all, get a MT 0.4.9-dev build ( viewforum.php?f=3 )
Then, try to reproduce this bug. When you use direct3d9 as render, then you can try to switch to opengl ( https://github.com/minetest/minetest/bl ... ample#L109 )

Enjoy this game.

What's the exact forum post I need to go to? Can't find it :/

There are a lot of topics about messed up inventory icons already, search through them first.

I know that but MSVC is more windows than mingw. Maybe also faster - no idea.

Does it work now or do you still get those "fails"?

Lol.
Yeah, I have done that Minetest builds thing but I'm too lazy to do anything else...
but I'll try soon
