00:00 est31 And I do prefer a binary format inside the db to store the player data
00:00 est31 we can write an application server owners can use to edit them
00:00 est31 with gui and so on
00:01 Fixer i have a bad feeling about this /me runs /good night! :)
00:05 paramat please can anyone review https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/4134 ? fairly simple
00:13 cheapie OK, so it appears that improving the indexing doesn't change /rollback performance much, so the performance issue with it is not a DB problem.
00:15 cheapie About the only time it would likely help in this case would be if you had the map DB on an SSD and the rollback DB on a slow hard drive. I'm going to assume that's not a common use case, and so it's probably not worth the extra space this would make the rollback DB take up.

11:46 srifqi Seems, like Compiling on Windows page on Developer Minetest Wiki is really hard for beginner. How about simple step to compile Minetest? Since we already have a zipped folder (hosted in kitsunemimi.pw) which contain all library needed. So, user only need to download that .zip file and extract and with simple configuration user can self-compile Mine
11:46 srifqi test. How about that?

11:51 * Fixer >_> gregorycu
11:51 gregorycu Indeed
11:51 Fixer gregorycu: some progress with it?
11:52 gregorycu Just git woes
11:52 gregorycu I want to get this sorted so i never have to think of this again :)
11:52 Fixer gregorycu: i will be glad to test it
11:53 gregorycu Has ShadowNinja done any work on it?
11:54 sfan5 srifqi: why does a "beginner" need to compile on windows?
11:54 Fixer gregorycu: no more work, I asked him, and he does not have any ideas about it
11:54 Fixer https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/3770
11:54 srifqi I mean beginner in compiling Minetest
11:55 sfan5 also the cmake setup will be different each time
11:55 gregorycu Thanks, I have ideas, I'm now at the stage where I want to force the issue
11:55 gregorycu As in, force the bug, so I can ensure any fixes work
11:55 STHGOM joined #minetest-dev
11:55 srifqi what do you mean, sfan5?
11:55 sfan5 paths
11:56 srifqi We can just saying "PATH_TO_BLABLABLA"
11:56 srifqi say*
12:01 gregorycu It's only like... 5 libs
12:01 srifqi Also, when first time I try to compile Minetest, I follow the page but getting frustated with missing dependencies. So I check the buildwin32.sh to find my mistake. What I found is that I might use wrong library. So I downloaded all dependencies from the URL in that script and it works!
12:02 sfan5 srifqi: no we can't
12:02 srifqi why?
12:02 sfan5 how would the computer magically understand that
12:02 sfan5 when you need to adjust all these paths for yourself after downloading
12:02 sfan5 you might as well just follow the guide on the wiki
12:03 srifqi Yes, I was
12:03 gregorycu The real issue is that different tool chains on windows need different things
12:04 gregorycu And expect different things
12:04 gregorycu You really want to build the deps once, and call it a day
12:04 gregorycu Not everytime you do a rebuilt
12:04 gregorycu rebuild
12:06 srifqi So, compiled deps can be "cached"?
12:08 gregorycu That's what cmake does for you
12:08 gregorycu sets that all up
12:08 gregorycu What problems did you run into?
12:08 srifqi Finding direct download to deps
12:13 Fixer srifqi: you use cmake?
12:13 Fixer srifqi: 32 or 64 bit?
12:13 srifqi cmake-gui
12:13 srifqi 32bit
12:14 Fixer srifqi: this link has links to this compiled libraries: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/util/buildbot/buildwin32.sh
12:14 srifqi That is exactly what I did at first time
12:14 Fixer srifqi: just replace $blabla_version with a number specified above
12:15 Fixer srifqi: so what is the problem, try making your way by reading this script, i build with it too (somewhat modified it though)
12:15 Fixer build in debian, not sure about windows
12:17 srifqi There is no problem. I just suggest to add some easy direct download in wiki so that there no need to find right "download" button while finding right deps. Also, with simpler step.
12:18 Taoki joined #minetest-dev
12:20 Krock srifqi, it's not so hard like you may think
12:20 davisonio joined #minetest-dev
12:20 Zeno` building on Windows is not easy for the beginner because it's a crappy dev environment
12:21 srifqi but i couldn't found it :(
12:21 srifqi Now I can, ofc
12:21 Zeno` it's easier to cross-compile from Linux or BSD to be honest
12:21 srifqi you're right
12:22 Zeno` maybe someone could write a GUI app to build it
12:22 Krock I planned to make a video about it but I'm not sure if Win 10 works the same way
12:22 Fixer Zeno`: remember me ranting about large mingw folder and how it was confusing? and damn msvc 2005 was over 500mb... it turns out that msvc 2015 is 5-8 GB minimal install
12:23 srifqi So, another question: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/README.txt#L236
12:23 Fixer now I'm looking at TDM-GCC with just 440 mb like it is very lightweight
12:24 Krock srifqi, the wiki page sohuld be more uptodate
12:24 srifqi But why the README doesn't get any update?
12:25 Fixer everyone is lazy
12:25 gregorycu We are not a professional outfit
12:25 Krock because there hasn't been added a reference to the wiki yet

17:22 est31 he tried it, it works for him
17:22 Fixer i guess poke other devs to review it?
17:23 est31 :) thats what my msg above was meant for
17:24 est31 sorry that I am not reviewing other people's prs much
17:24 est31 im busy atm with so many things
17:25 est31 and my plan for the mean term is to continue work on my rust project
17:25 est31 Its still not finished
17:25 est31 although all the algorithms are written, it produces flawed output
17:26 est31 I have to fix bugs before i publish it
17:26 KaadmY what's the

18:04 davisonio joined #minetest-dev
18:06 red-001 why would you do that?
18:13 ElectronLibre red-001: It could spare naltamur the troubles of downloading/extracting/configuring all required libraries
18:15 naltamur ElectronLibre: yeah!
18:16 colos joined #minetest-dev
18:16 red-001 well you could try
18:16 naltamur but I think it's impossible \0/
18:17 ElectronLibre Sadly I have not enough experience with/knowledge of Cygwin to tell you whether or not it will work. I doubt it will though, but there is a guide on dev.minetest.net for you to follow to compile on Windows
18:17 ElectronLibre It took me about three complete days to get everything in place; you should be quicker though.

20:15 hmmmm hey paramat
20:15 paramat hi
20:15 hmmmm i saw you got a little carried away with 'optimizing' bitwise and expressions used in branches
20:16 hmmmm on x86/64, at least, this thing is so common there's a dedicated instruction for it called 'bt'
20:17 hmmmm so for a piece of code like if (spflags & MGV7_MOUNTAINS) { ... the compiler would emit code like
20:17 hmmmm bt dword [ecx + spflags], 1
20:17 hmmmm jnc .no_mountains
20:18 hmmmm very efficient, no?
20:19 hmmmm and other architectures have similar instructions
20:20 paramat nice, ok i'll remember for the future
20:22 hmmmm the other way would have the same exact runtime

21:15 * paramat wonders if the 'trump of minetest' will build a wall at the world's edge
21:16 Krock no, it would be like a wall with a radius of 100m around spawn
21:16 davisonio joined #minetest-dev
21:17 Calinou 1x1 node is enough for creativity! build a 3x3 wall around spawn!
21:17 Krock inside the walls it would be like in the desert because trump said that we need more global warming
21:18 Krock Calinou, but where should he put his billions of dollars?

23:29 kaeza just for the record, compiling under Windows is easy as long as you stick to C libs
23:29 kaeza (for precompiled deps, that is)
23:30 kaeza every damned C++ compiler seems to have its own ABI or something
23:30 kaeza so it's better to recompile C++ libs
23:30 kaeza WFM, YMMV
23:32 kaeza BTW, all that is assuming MinGW; no idea for MSVC, and I assume for Cygwin it's just the Unix Way(tm)
