FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

This modpack adds a full tron-style realm to minetest. it utilizes PilzAdam's nether mod, my tronblocks mod, and a mapgen made by paramat.


tronblocks:
https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=8556 adds a large number of blocks to create a tron type world, divided into four colors to represent the different factions.

tronportal (nether):
https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=5790 A portal system devised by PilzAdam to create a nether, and is currently the easiest way (aside from teleporting) to travel to a realm. the portal is 4 nodes wide, and 5 nodes high, with the center hollowed out. right click with a tron bit (which may be uncraftable on some servers to prevent portal greifing) to activate the portal.

thegrid:
this mapgen was created by paramat for this modpack, and as such doesn't have a thread. it creats an area 960x960 nodes, divided into 4 240x240 sections. each subsection is 3 chunks square, and can be easily modified in the init.lua file for it.

Thanks. The real credit should go to PilzAdam and paramat for the nether and mapgen. creating nodes is easy.

update: texture fix

update: tron glass added

Never was a fan of tron, but a very neat mod nonetheless!

Cool! :)

perfeito mod que vc fez mais acho que falta alguns minerio dentro dele

The tron blocks are very decorative. Unfortionately, crafting them is a bit tiresome as some blocks require quite a lot of crafting - which isn't so nice on a slower server. Perhaps you could add a machine where blocks are put in, the desired texture is selected, and blocks are turned into that? Like my circular saw or colormachine (just simpler).

good point Soko. Unfourtunately, I don't fully understand the minetest API, and have pretty much no idea of how to do that. One thing I was thinking of is to have several crafting "lines." it would make it so you wouldn't have to craft the same block quite so much, but you don't have to craft something else to get the design you want. The biggest issue is I have almost no idea how to make something like that.

In the castles mod, Dan Duncombe put in an auto-crafter. You put in the materials at the left side, shape the recipe in the middle and out comes the product on the right side.
