K thanx.
I tried the 128px on my Win 7 gaming pc last night. It's looks really great. Thank you for everyone's efforts who works
on this. I have always been very dissapointed with Mintest's performance on Win 7 as it could barely manage 40FPS on my strong GTX 760 card.
When I use your 128px pack though , it reaches 80 to 90fps. This was a pleasant surprise ! :) Not only does it look great , but it doubles the performance of minetest on my specific hardware :)
Only thing I noticed , it's only the default stuff that changed. None of the mods , even the ones listed seem to have the new textures.
Today gonna test them on my Ubuntu pc and see how Ubuntu handles the 128px.
Thank you for the great work ! ;)
EDIT: I can't get the Ubuntu version of minetest to see the texture packs.
in /usr/share/minetest/textures I created two folders. One for 64px and one for 128px.
I extracted the relevant zips into those two folders.
But when I open minetest and go to "texture packs" it doesn't see either one of them.
Anybody know how to install these textures on Ubuntu please ?
I get ~15 FPS on my AMD A10 (6800K) APU with 512px on DreamBuilder.
