FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I have coded a "new" main menu for minetest. Its based a little on the design idea by Raiden:


I have also made some colors of the gui more brighter and i have add a settings menu with all graphic options and three new options for antialiasing (edge smoothing), fullscreen and vsync (vertical synchronization).

But antialiasing works at this time not so well: if its enabled there are small spacings between blocks and that looks not so great



Here is the patch (this time on github ^^): https://github.com/Krisi/minetest
(in the folder data/clienttextures/ are some alternative logo textures in a small and a big size. If someone have a big or very small screen he shell just rename the menulogo-small.png or menulogo-big.png in menulogo.png)

If someone have suggestions for the gui he should write me.

Update1:
Add a listbox to change the window size in the settings menu (fix the fullscreen "bug") and i upload a new logo that should fix the contrast problem.

tomorrow, use cygwin and play this thing.

best i can do at short notice is make it more visible in clouds and change transparency to match the c55 better.
small

normal

big

if these arent transparent i can put a download up

Oh, you are right, the shadow of the c55 is hard to see but i think your logo is a little bit to blue. It should be more an neutral color like a light gray, black or gray with a little big blue (like the buttons).

okay
heres the new ones darker and less blue
small

normal

largish

tell me if you need it devoid of color :)
heres it in game

ive got a better one in the works not like this one at all
also you must remember the tranparency makes it just pop out not look crazy blue :P

yes, and its a little too blue for me as well. i will have a go later.

see above post for new images

it would be cooler if there was some land and water with some deers movin around:D

krisi this is amazing..if this is not included i think i'm going to leave this project..because this is one of the things that truely need to be implemented

an issue with fullscreaning, it makes it really small resolution

Does anyone have a compiled version of Minetest with this on it for windows? I have tried compiling before, but I just cannot do it.

Amazing!
I suggest in the settings menu to not write
"Some settings only works after a restart of Minetest!"
But add a * to each specific point that does only work after a restart.
If it is possible you should also include a way to change screen resolution in fullscreen.

Amazing!

Hi all,

The buttons in the menu of the game are too transparent, but the 3d wallpaper it's beautiful, thank's Krisi, with 3D player the game it's amazing.

What font you used ?

I would say, i leave it on my complete white logo, but i can also upload your logo in the next version.

I know, im working for that. I will just add an option in the settings to change and save the window size.
But if you cant wait you can open the minetest.conf and add the options

with your screen resolution (int the example its full hd) and in the next start of minetest the fullscreen should work with this resolution.

Are there really to transparent?? Hmm, i can add some options to set the gui colors in the minetest.conf or the settings menu.

Font? Are you mean the font in the logo or in minetest?
In minetest thats just the standard font (can someone make a bitmap font that works in irrlicht of a minecraft similar font?!)
And the logo has no "font". It is copied from cisouns texture pack (file menulogo.png) thx to cisoun for his nice textures!

Hi Krisi,

Yes, I find them just a little too transparent but does not add an option for her,

and I speak of the police logo.

Update: Add a listbox to change the window size in the settings menu (fix the fullscreen

Is there any way to change the video in the back ground?
Is this just a set series of photos playing or something?

Ok can I render and inject my own?
ok nevermind havnt gotten into compiling yet.

Firstly I'd just like to say hello!

In response to your white lines problem I do believe I have a solution. Earlier when I first began playing with minetest I forced AA ( all of this using d3d 9 but it could work for opengl ) in my nvidia control panel and got the white lines. So I enabled the feature AA transparency, set it to x8. This fixed the white lines on all blocks but water. To fix this on water in addition to the above I disabled texture atlasing in the conf file.

Anyway that's what fixed it for me.

that is quite nice. i missed it though, unforunately. why wasn't it added? why won't you write in the unoficial development section?
