[Mod] mycorners [mycorners]

[Napiophelios]

the 16px code looks kinda weird with stonebricks cuz I just used the same tile rotation
I came up with for my custom 32px textures to look right.
I will try to fix it later and get back to you.

If ExeterDad can come up with a way to detrmine the px size being used
it will make [combine alot more useful

[Don]

Either that or we could put a setting in there for size

[ExeterDad]

My thoughts are towards one of two ways.
1) A meshnode cube. A cube within a cube creating layers. It doesn't matter the res of the texture, the texture will cover the face of the node it is assigned to no matter what. So a 16x16 "layer" will stretch over a 32x32 "layer" correctly. Or visa versa. My concern would be the Z flashing bug.

2) Another thought is making a meshnode with a textured (trim) corner pressed into another "base" block with the main texture. That would eliminate the possibility of flashing.

Either way in theory would allow any res texture pack to work with any default texture, or visa versa.
I'm thinking this would be cool to try on mypaths as well.

If there was some way of getting the size of the texture you are overlaying on, you could automatically adjust the overlays to the correct size.

Another texture modifier that may helps you for get rid of lot of redundancy...

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

#### `[colorize:<color>:<ratio>`
Colorize the textures with the given color.
`<color>` is specified as a `ColorString`.
`<ratio>` is an int ranging from 0 to 255, and specifies how much of the
color to apply. If ommitted, the alpha will be used.

Maybe I'm just dumb, but I've been trying to figure this out for a while now, do you know of a mod that uses this method, or could you provide a working example, 'cause I simply can't get this to work.

[jp]

Pretty simple.

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

minetest.register_node("test:node", {
   tiles = {"default_stone.png^[colorize:red:120"},
   description = "Node test",
   groups = {crumbly=3},
})

You can replace "red" by an ASCII code (e.g. #FFFFFF) as well.
<ratio> means the color saturation -- higher is the number, higher is the saturation.

[Nathan.S]

I wish the API said that you needed the carat and that it belonged in the quotes, I was trying it without the carat and outside of the quotes.

Thanks a Million JP, this helps me out immensely.

[Hybrid Dog]

the wool mod needs an update in my opinion.

[Napiophelios]

I dont know why I cant stop messing with this mod :)

This is my version of stone corners without providing textures.
(The cobble with stone corners looks the best..stone on stone aint bad either)

The code is below if you wanna test it out;
(I used Sokomines compressed format to simplify things).
I also fixed the wood corners from the previous post.

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

Looks nice. I will get around to adding your code. I have been busy with other mods. This mod is on my list for updates.

IDK Don, without default textures and default texture resolution,
my little experiments might make your mod seem unfinished to some.
is it possible to have a setting file?
Thats a little advanced for me to even consider writing :)

[Don]

It is possible to have a settings file. I will have to think about how I would do it. Maybe have both styles and people can choose which they want

[Don]

Update

Corner tool is ready for use.
Craft the tool
place your corners to the right of your tool in inventory
left click to install on the block
right click rotates the block

Hope you enjoy!

[Don]

Update
cleaned up code.
Thanks for the help TeTpaAka

[Don]

Napiophelios made a version using default textures and [combine.

The link is also at the bottom of the first post.

[Gon_17]

Perfect mod

[Don]

I made a light version of mycorners.
It includes the basic default nodes and 4 dye colors, brown, green, red and white.
The machine is gone. You craft the corner boards by putting the material in the top left corner and the dye beside it.
To install the corners you use the corner tool.
Let me know what you think. Hopefully this will help with servers.
https://github.com/DonBatman/mycorners_light/archive/master.zip

[Don]

I cleaned up the code a bit and fixed groups. The blocks the corner is attached to is the group used.
When you remove a corner block you now get the original block and 2 corner pieces.
The corner tool now required 2 corner pieces. Something I missed before.

[fireglow]

One of my players just hit a very serious bug:
When someone hits a default locked chest (be it the owner or another player) with the tool,
a) the chest ownership is cleared
b) the chest is emptied.
Please fix this asap. I'll disable the tool on my servers for now.

Edit: The chests in question were protected by a tenplus protector, to no avail.

[TenPlus1]

The tool itself has no protection checking inside so will automatically replace any node on the list, you need to add something like:

if minetest.is_protected(pos, clicker:get_player_name()) then
return
end

[Don]

I added protection. Thanks for reporting the issue and thanks TenPlus1 for giving me the fix.
I have not tested it but it should work fine now. Can you give it a try and let me know?

[fireglow]

Okay, cool. Thanks for the quick fix.

[Don]

Update - I changed the mod so that there is a setting in the minetest.conf to change from light to full version.
add mycorners_all_colors = true for full version

It is a light version on download. I did this because load times were very long. This version only supports 4 dye colors. Black, Brown, Dark Green and Grey. This should be safe for servers.

If you have the old version and want all the colors then no need to download the new version.

[Inocudom]

You know, it really is a shame that VanessaE does not add your mods to her Dreambuilder subgame.

[Don]

You know, it really is a shame that VanessaE does not add your mods to her Dreambuilder subgame.

I am working on cleaning them up a bit and making them a bit lighter. When I get it done maybe she will consider it. I think the ideas for my mods are good. Or maybe her vision for dream builder is different then what my mods are about. Either way I am glad you like them. You and others have said great things about my mods which makes it all worth it.
