Time Nick Message 01:00 Hijiri crazyR: no 01:04 crazyR that would be a pretty cool feature... the ability to change the gain mid way throught a sound play.... I suspect it wouldnt be to hard to do for someone with the right skill set neither :/ 01:04 Hijiri crazyR: what's your use case? 01:06 rubenwardy latency 01:06 rubenwardy not a good idea 01:07 rubenwardy maybe the ability to set sound volume nodes to play 01:07 rubenwardy or with client side scripting 01:07 rubenwardy actually, wait - music 01:07 crazyR mainly improving the ambient mod so the sounds can blend a little nicer.. but other use cases would be for example a radio mod.... 1) making track changes smoother 2) allowing the volume to be changed without having to restart the sound.. 01:12 crazyR rubenwardy: latency in the way for most new feature but if its only an api feature then the mod devs and server owners can decide for them selves whether its applicable for them to use it or not in their own use case 06:48 nrzkt merging #4806 06:48 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/4806 -- Add search to advanced settings by rubenwardy 07:22 celeron55 it's actually impressive how powerful Lua is as a UI language even with this cobbled-together system 07:54 red-001 #4962 07:54 ShadowBot red-001: Error: Delimiter not found in "Page is too big or the server took too much time to answer the request." 07:55 red-001 well bot is broken again 10:17 juhdanad In Minetest shaders boost the brightness of nodes that emit light: http://imgur.com/Go6PQmN 10:18 juhdanad Would it be a problem if this would be the behavior without shaders, too? 10:18 juhdanad *was 10:19 nrzkt merging #5064 10:19 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5064 -- Add minetest.player_exists() by rubenwardy 10:20 sfan5 nrzkt: could you take another look at #5039 and approve it? 10:20 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5039 -- Add particle animation, glow by sfan5 10:21 nrzkt sfan5: i will try to take some time today, promise :) 11:07 celeron55 juhdanad: it's not really possible without shaders in our lighting model 11:08 celeron55 maybe there's a trick but someone would have to find it 11:08 juhdanad Yes, it is! I have done it already. 11:08 juhdanad I boost artificial light when I have to encode colors. 11:10 celeron55 can i see the diff? 11:11 juhdanad I will post a bunch of comparison screenshots soon. But these take a lot of time to do. 11:12 celeron55 but what does the code actually look like? i don't really get what you're doing 11:13 juhdanad Ah, you mean that diff. Yes, I'll push. 11:13 celeron55 lol 11:16 juhdanad Done! https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/4986/commits/bbcb44dca1b3ec0825713dca79f548d41df6ea4b 11:18 juhdanad And the line I was writing about: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/4986/commits/bbcb44dca1b3ec0825713dca79f548d41df6ea4b#diff-c2f90db5de8c33a259c27113939c63c5R1515 11:23 celeron55 oh yeah, you can do that 11:23 celeron55 it doesn't help at the highest light levels though 11:24 celeron55 (it'll just clamp to 255 which is where it already was in that case) 11:25 juhdanad I know. Just it is easier to make graphics identical with or without shaders than to boost lights only in shaders (because the shaders no longer know the light source from the blue channel9. 11:25 juhdanad *channel) 11:25 celeron55 it's better than nothing, yes 11:27 juhdanad Exposure based lighting could also be implemented, but it would require a reworked light table. 18:54 red-001 #4942 can be closed 18:54 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/4942 -- lua api way to check if a player exist 19:21 sfan5 anyone wanna comment on https://github.com/minetest/minetest.github.io/pull/83 ?

21:12 red-001 both? 21:13 sofar sfan5: heh, yeah, my thoughts are quite similar 21:13 sfan5 both 21:14 twoelk sapier never was happy with it - but nobody helped with better concepts 21:17 sfan5 how do i colorized text in formspecs? 21:17 sfan5 nvm seems minetest.colorize is for that 21:26 nrzkt sfan5, a XML formspec can be good 21:26 nrzkt irrlicht embed XML parser :) 21:26 sfan5 xml is also cancer 21:27 Calinou XML is a container, unlike JSON, sfan5 21:27 Calinou its tags can contain things, JSON can't do that... 21:27 Calinou so it's entirely different, and still relevant to date 21:27 sfan5 i know 21:28 nrzkt HTML is xml 21:28 nrzkt a little bit modified but quite near 21:32 celeron55 who said html is good? 8) 21:33 sofar does anyone know of a way to have minetestserver by itself generate some terrain on start automatically without a player connecting? 21:34 sfan5 have a mod call /emergeblocks 21:34 sofar I'm looking at making a simple test case that doesn't use GL and can run without display but does enough to make mods 21:35 sofar send a chatcommand with that command, then? 21:37 sofar sfan5: how does a mod send that chatcommand to the server? 21:38 sofar sfan5: or are you saying to use `minetest.emerge_area()` ? 21:38 paramat yeah use that 21:38 sofar ok 21:38 paramat that's what the chatcommand calls afaik 21:39 nrzkt sofar, i have a working alroithm which generate the whole map when no player is connecting on my fork, i was thinking about backporting it to mt recently 21:39 sfan5 emerge_area will probably achieve the same 21:39 sfan5 for the record: https://github.com/Jeija/minetest-mod-mesecons/blob/master/mesecons_commandblock/init.lua#L151L164 21:40 nrzkt i starts from center, and every 5 second generate x+{1..10},y+{1..10},z+{1..10} since max map, and then restart from center 21:40 nrzkt it works perfect, as i have the whole map in my pg db now 21:40 sofar nrzkt: I just need to generate a *little* bit for some unit testing 21:41 sofar but, cool idea for a mod 21:41 nrzkt just launch emergethread & env & call emergeblock function 21:41 nrzkt sofar, i don't think a mod is required there as it's a pure coreside specific function which access to internals 21:42 twoelk maybe the Explore mod is usefull to generate some terrain? https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=2950 oh, wait, it just animates a player avatar, so a player is connected 21:45 twoelk nrzkt: how large does that db get? 21:45 nrzkt sofar, => https://gitlab.com/epixelgame/epixel/blob/master/src/contrib/environment.cpp#L72 21:45 nrzkt 13Go in SQL mode, 10Go on disk (it's comprssed using LZ4 not gzip) 21:47 nrzkt oh sofar also, i have C++ nodeupdate feature, it permits to reduce massively lag due to nodeupdate, especially when you dig sand and there is 1M blocks to fall :p 21:47 sofar nrzkt: I don't think that's needed 21:47 sofar really, you can't bring down a normal server anymore with the current nodeupdate 21:48 sofar and putting it in c++ would make it likely harder to fix 21:48 nrzkt sofar, not really, it's exactly the same algorithm in C++ in fact 21:48 nrzkt C++ and Lua API are very very similar 22:04 sofar https://gist.github.com/ahkok/38e05e8f8208496fe317825ddb163c9a fwiw 22:05 nrzkt i don't like Lua :) especially when it interact with map, but yes it's a poc, now please ensure no player is connected 22:05 sofar this runs on a test machine in a lab 22:05 sofar if people are playing they will get fired 22:05 sofar :) 22:05 twoelk you should deactivate the fire mod 22:06 nrzkt no, just add a check to ensure no player is connected when you emerge 22:06 sofar no, I just don't care 22:07 twoelk but then you might get fired 22:07 sofar not caring about your job doesn't get you fired 22:07 sofar it's acting like you don't care 22:07 twoelk too true 22:07 sofar THAT, will get you fired 22:07 sofar afk espresso 22:10 twoelk I took a week to change some stuff in our CRM software in the office and asked the boss to check - he didn't - so maybe he should get fired for not caring :-D 22:11 twoelk after all the thing sort of runs the office 22:15 nrzkt sfan5, i added my approval for #5039 22:15 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5039 -- Add particle animation, glow by sfan5 22:15 sfan5 thanks 22:15 sfan5 will merge it soon 22:18 red-001 !seen rubenwardy 22:18 ShadowBot red-001: I saw rubenwardy in #minetest-dev 21 hours, 11 minutes, and 0 seconds ago saying "actually, wait - music" 22:21 sofar sfan5: +1 (dying to use it) 22:21 sfan5 pushed 23:17 lisac !seen foot_on_teh_hill 23:17 ShadowBot lisac: I haven't seen foot_on_teh_hill in #minetest-dev. 23:17 lisac !seen Amaz 23:17 ShadowBot lisac: I saw Amaz in #minetest-dev 2 weeks, 1 day, 3 hours, 57 minutes, and 8 seconds ago saying "Opps, sorry" 23:22 sapier1 #5068 actually an ancient fix + minor improvement that never got merged 23:22 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5068 -- Fix animation frame_speed and blend loosing precision due to incorrec… by sapier
