Working on a better look for the default doors... what do you think?

I think that this doors looks like mc doors.

I used MC's door as an inspiration. If you look closely, the design is the original minetest door.

I like it :D

Nice!

I like it too, you could make a door_overlay_top.png and door_overlay_bottom.png similar to the fence_overlay to let it always use the newest wood texture. The same could be done with the bookshelf.

Some weird screenshot from SkyTest:

It’s a nyan cat rainbow without the nyan cat! It actually spawned this way and you can try to reproduce it. Seed and coordinates are in screenshot.

Aha... so that's what the new drawtype I saw in the GIT logs does. That's a very nice feature... now you can make actual glass blocks out of multiple nodes!

That new drawtype was an extention to the one in the screenshot. (The one I used is already a bit longer in the minetest core)

A funny error message I got a few times while modding:

Sadly, I don’t know anymore when this error occoured.

How did you get that??? Thats awesome!!!

That's a screenie from the base_game.
The latest minetest_game uses this glasslike drawtype too

Somehow they were unable to do damage, so I had to make them use projectiles.

Just a cave in Carbone…



Down in the water, there was a dirt monster and sand monster.

I've been playing around with cave generation algorithms to get a feel for modding Minetest.
The following screenshots show caves which smoothly vary in size and density in all 3 dimensions.

A typical unassuming cave entrance on the surface. This particular one goes a lot deeper than it looks.

The number of caves near the surface varies according to "biome":

Going deeper, the caves get larger and more spread out:

After 500 metres depth the algorithm no longer cares about surface cave density.

+ click for image

Almost 2 km below the surface, and we can see the largest tunnels (the size increase actually caps out at 1 km depth). These twist and turn through all three dimensions, so navigating them on foot would be extremely difficult and rather dangerous. Once I get ore generation working though, there should be some valuable resources down there which make the caves worth exploring.

Please excuse the inconsistent lighting. I tried to set everything to be fully illuminated, but that's apparently easier said than done.

WOW! Very interesting work!
Welcome to the forums by the way :D

\o/ I like all those mapgen screenshots.

If you use perlin noise there, you can minimalize that to two 3d-noise.

[Calinou]

This one reminds me of Minecraft a lot:

[ArguablySane]

I'm glad people like the screenshots.

If you use perlin noise there, you can minimalize that to two 3d-noise.

All my caves are actually generated by the intersection of two thresholded 3D noise functions. I took a bit of inspiration from paramat's code for that, so if he's reading this, thanks. I have just tested adding a third set of 3D noise to generate more interconnected caves, and that seems to work well.

The main modification is a blending function which takes multiple octaves of 3D perlin noise and combines them in varying proportions to produce a smooth noise function with varying spatial frequency. I also use a spherical "cutting head" when carving out the caves so that narrow caves are usually navigable without digging and larger caves have slightly rounded corners.

If people are interested, I could write up a larger post explaining how this technique works in more detail. I'd be happy to share my code, but it still has one annoying bug in it which I'm trying to find. Coincidentally you can actually see the bug in the screenshot above - a vertical line of not-quite-continuity down the middle of the image.

EDIT: Fixed the bug. It turns out the 2D perlin noise function takes slightly different parameters than the 3D one. There were huge discontinuities in the cavernosity map, leading to slight discontinuities in the cave systems at y>-500.

I love that wide tunnel screenshot. Good to see someone working on this stuff. In 'riverdev' mod i'm expanding one of or both noisebands to blend tunnels, fissures and caves. Your spherical excavation 'brush' is a great idea, imagine using an irregular brush for rougher wall textures.

Paramat... I'm thinking that last image is only missing a dude on a skateboard catching extreme air!
