It's not possible to download single folders from github, so please change the title to [Modpack].

I tested the boat and noticed, it's a big glitchy. It goes faster and stops on the sea borders,

[Minetestforfun]

Good texture :)

i think It would be awesome if you made the boat bigger. it would be more of a sail boat

Very nice model!

That might not work as expected. Larger things tend to take more time to turn around/change direction than smaller things - at least in real life. In Minetest, direction changes would be instantaneous. Which looks very odd if done by a huge object. Cows have a problem with that already. Larger boats would be even more problematic.

thanks for the info - mod was posted in general and not quite released yet. i'm working on a modpack so it coming soon. keeping an eye on irc as some ppl are talking about making a universal vehicle api so in the mean time i'm focusing on creating a few models and playing with the code.

please explain sea borders - you mean land or areas that have not been loaded into the client from the server or areas that have not been generated by the server?

thanks - i'll have a play with size - have a look in the code https://github.com/deasanta/minetest-deasanta/blob/master/ds_sailboat/init.lua around line 25 you will see

collisionbox = {-1,-0.5,-1, 1,2,1},

play around with those numbers to see how the collision box is affected. you will notice that Sokomine is correct but then again feel free to do as you like :) the next one will be a caravel ship so that may be what you are looking for and I have found that one hard to steer. You can resize the model using any 3d editing program that can import X (directX) models then save it back as X, 3ds, or obj file and update the line below around line 28

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

mesh = "sailboat.x",
