xyz's Minetest win32 builds

[Mito551]

just to point that out - japanese doesn't work, i get 'empty spaces'.
as far as i understand, it's not in your power to make it work, but i want you to be aware of that, so you could do a patch as you did with russian.

You need a build with TTF support.

Try installing font with CJK support (I tried this one, works fine with chinese characters).

You should replace minetest font (fonts/liberationmono.ttf fonts/liberationsans.ttf) with another one with CJK support.

[Mito551]

didn't work. or i did it wrong. could you please explain how it is done?

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

cp uming.ttc fonts/liberationsans.ttf
LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 ./bin/minetest

Japanese locale should work too.

Could you make a new build soon? Many changes have been made to the github version of minetest.

[jojoa1997]

there are alot ofnew things plese make a build soon (today or tomorrow)

[xyz]

New build: 3823878305568f099b7ebeac3fd5a226dd68c9b9
Builds now include msvcr100.dll like official ones do.

It makes your life easier.

Thanks xyz this saves time, of copying =)

Hey xyz, how do you make a build title? like how yours, build has minetest.ru how, you change the title?

Indeed about easyer!

Set VERSION_EXTRA in cmake.

[Likwid H-Craft]

Ok...And what do I do to all the files to make it run...unless you can do it for me once I am, done since I don't get how make the game run with, out all the files, but the needed ones.

Oh and what source code I use? 4.4 or 4.x?

[xyz]

New build: 038529c7638ce48525df9c0ae610d99f2e58aedc (Minetest 0.4.5)

[Inocudom]

I am glad to know that 0.4.5 stable is out. Servers like Redcrab's primary one can now update to this version.

With Minetest gaining new features and becoming more and more powerful, it will demand more RAM. You may want to consider making 64-bit builds in the future so that powerful 64-bit computers can run the game at full capacity. There is a way that your compiler can make 64-bit builds. Do you know of that method?

[Calinou]

Minetest will probably never use more than 3GB of RAM, but 6- bit is often faster, yes. If you want to run 64-bit Minetest for now, switch to Linux. :P

i found a new commit was made. i think this adds dungoens chack it out. https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/650e932ddf7352e50bba42acbc0ff4eda8aa40e2

If you want them you can use my builds until xyz makes a new one.

is it possible that you could make your builds not need the command line to start

Ummm.... you can start them without the command line.

Windows automatically starts the cmd line when running Minetest.

One of the recent commits states that mapgen was cleaned up. Looking at the code, it looks like some pretty hefty changes were made in how the coding works. What exactly do these changes do?

1st: This is the wrong thread to ask.
2nd: The cleanup commit was mainly removing unused code parts (commented out with #if 0) and fixing code style.
But there were some changes regarding mapgen: It is now possible to have multiple mapgens. Wich mapgen is used for wich map is read from map_meta.txt, or minetest.conf if map_meta.txt doesnt exists (i.e. when creating the world).
Then there was a huge spead up of the emerge manager wich handles the mapgen.

[Inocudom]

Lighting got optimized, mapgen got cleaned up, and dungeons were brought back and improved. It might be a good idea to compile a new build (PilzAdam makes new ones regularly, but they don't have DirectX support.) oOChainLynxOo and jojoa1997 would be appreciative of your efforts.

also Jordach, and me. I like his builds, I tend to play with them.
