Time Nick Message 00:11 Aerodynamicx Okay Im back again 00:12 Aerodynamicx I have compiled it already. 00:13 Aerodynamicx So where am I to go from there? 00:18 Aerodynamicx Anyone here? 00:22 Aerodynamicx ? 00:22 marktraceur Yep! 00:23 Aerodynamicx Where do I go from compilation? 00:23 Aerodynamicx I have finished that 00:23 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: ./bin/minetestserver should start the server 00:24 Aerodynamicx After I have created it of course? 00:24 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: What? 00:24 Aerodynamicx I have to create the server and do a bunch of option editing right? 00:25 marktraceur Um 00:25 marktraceur You can, the defaults should be OK for now 00:25 marktraceur Just run it, see what happens 00:25 Aerodynamicx In the config file and all. Isn't that necessary? 00:25 marktraceur Not really, no 00:25 Aerodynamicx Okay after I ran that I didn't get any command line options. Just an empty text line. Do I need to shut down the terminal? 00:26 marktraceur Um, no 00:26 marktraceur Is it still running? 00:26 Aerodynamicx Okay then how am I supposed to start it? I get no command options. Yeah its still running 00:26 marktraceur It's started, connect to it 00:28 Aerodynamicx I dont even know what to put in? Localhost? Because I didnt have to set any of that stuff up.. 00:29 Aerodynamicx YES it worked! 00:29 marktraceur Default to localhost, of course 00:29 Aerodynamicx And others connect through my external IP right? 00:30 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: So long as you've port forwarded, yes 00:30 Aerodynamicx Ive done that on windows. Does that apply here or will I need to do that here too? (I dont think so right?) 00:31 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: So long as the IP hasn't changed, no further changes are necessary 00:31 Aerodynamicx Im gonna log into the router and check just incase 00:32 Aerodynamicx Yeah I have even more than necessary forwarded. Does the server terminal need to stay open for the server to stay on? 00:33 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: Yes, but you can use something like GNU screen or byobu to detach the process 00:33 VanessaE no, 00:33 VanessaE only if it didn't return a command prompt. 00:33 VanessaE if it did, and it's still running, "exit" or ctrl-D to close the terminal without terminating the server. 00:34 marktraceur VanessaE: I didn't have him detach the process in any way 00:34 VanessaE oh\ 00:34 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: Try Ctrl-Z 00:34 VanessaE ok then, I'll shut up :) 00:34 marktraceur That should background it, but I'm not sure if you can then close the terminal 00:34 VanessaE no 00:34 VanessaE ctrl-z 00:34 VanessaE bg 00:34 VanessaE enter 00:34 Aerodynamicx No I know how to background it 00:34 VanessaE ctrl-d 00:34 Aerodynamicx Just wondering if I need to keep the terminal open 00:35 Aerodynamicx So it can't be a 24 hour server? (Assuming I dont keep my computer on 24 hours.) Which I wont 00:35 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: Well, no, if you turn off your server, your server will turn off 00:35 * marktraceur didn't think he'd ever have to say something like that 00:35 VanessaE powered-off server is powered off. 00:35 VanessaE :-) 00:36 Aerodynamicx Yeah, I didnt know that the terminal was literally my server.. 00:37 Aerodynamicx Just to make sure I didnt mess up could someone try to connect real quick? If it works you can then leave automatically 00:37 VanessaE address? 00:37 Aerodynamicx 74.138.121.73 I believe is the correct adress 00:37 VanessaE connecting... 00:38 Aerodynamicx It worked 00:38 VanessaE yup, it works. 00:38 Aerodynamicx Thanks 00:39 Aerodynamicx So if I have to get another Computer with the same router will I need to repeat this entire process? (It seems like I will seeing that the only one that involved server setup was just typing minetestserver.) 00:39 Aerodynamicx I will just re-install ubuntu. Go back through those series of events and the same should happen? 00:40 marktraceur Aerodynamicx: Yes, though if you want to run two servers, obviously you'll need to change the port in minetest.conf and port-forward that one separately 00:40 Aerodynamicx Na. Thats not the intent. I will probably just save all these files onto some FTP medium and when my new computer comes I will just download them 00:42 marktraceur Mmmkay 00:42 Aerodynamicx That should work shouldn't it? 00:43 marktraceur So long as it's the same architecture, the same OS, and the same libraries are installed.....probably 00:43 marktraceur I wouldn't bet on it 00:43 Aerodynamicx Yeah I know it needs to be the same OS, Same Libraries should be because It was in Desktop 00:43 marktraceur I'm skipping out 00:43 marktraceur BBL 00:44 marktraceur Good luck 00:44 Aerodynamicx Ok thanks 00:44 VanessaE oh good, the boss is gone...now where's that bucket of lava....... 00:44 VanessaE ;-) 00:50 Aerodynamicx Okay I know how to do this on a windows machine. But how can I make myself server admin here on the Linux server? 00:51 VanessaE you mean within the game or generallt? 00:52 Aerodynamicx Within the game server 00:52 VanessaE (generally, you already are the admin if you installed the OS yourself) 00:52 VanessaE good question 00:52 Aerodynamicx Yeah, Of course I know how to set up admin on my own Linux machine. I am talking serverwise 00:56 VanessaE just making sure :-) 00:56 VanessaE I've met a few folks who use linux but you'd swear are as dumb as a bag of hammers, so I try not to assume anymore :-) 01:06 Aerodynamicx My friend tried to connect and it says he does not have the right "protocol", Can someone help me out here? I am on limited time and I havent seen him in a while 01:07 Aerodynamicx Please? 01:12 Aerodynamicx Nobody can help me out? 01:13 Fury is he using same version as you? 01:13 Aerodynamicx He said he has 0.4 01:14 Aerodynamicx He's sure about it 01:14 Aerodynamicx What could cause this? 01:15 NakedFury dont know, port maybe? 01:16 Aerodynamicx He has windows and I have Linux, Could that cause it? 01:16 NakedFury no 01:16 NakedFury marks server is hosted in a linux machine 01:17 NakedFury I am connecting from windows version 01:17 VanessaE either your copy or his copy of 0.4 is outdated. 01:18 Aerodynamicx Hmm... Myn and yours worked together. So it must be his? 01:18 VanessaE the protocol number changed not long ago, rendering the oldest builds of 0.4 as servers useless with more recent 0.4 as a client 01:18 VanessaE I can't, for example, use gameboom's server because their copy of 0.4 is too old. 01:18 Aerodynamicx Ah. So what I have is the newest? 01:19 VanessaE what's the build number? 01:19 VanessaE (the github hash, 6 or 8 hex digits at the end of the foldername) 01:19 VanessaE 02fb912 is the latest. 01:19 Aerodynamicx Yeah thats what I have. Is there a way he can get that on his Windows machine? 01:20 NakedFury there is a post in the forums where a user, sfan compiles the versions, he compiled for windows and its the latest version too 01:20 VanessaE should be available I'd think 01:20 Aerodynamicx Can you link me to it? 01:20 Aerodynamicx He is a novice user when it comes to minetest 01:21 NakedFury http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1523 01:22 Aerodynamicx Which of the links is the correct one? 01:24 Aerodynamicx The one that says latest next to it? 01:24 NakedFury yes 10:26 art_ hi 10:27 art_ is anyone known how loading textures is working ... simply where is it in code .. in what file... function... anything .. 10:42 Calinou art_, tip: grep :P 10:43 Calinou minetest supports .png, but also .jpg and some other formats 10:52 art_ Calinou: i did'n asked about supported formats but how to add new texture... in source of course 10:52 Calinou dunno then 10:53 art_ painting 3D items is simple compere to adding new texure >.< 17:57 art_ hi 17:58 marktraceur art_: Hi! 17:59 art_ do anybody known where textures (in code) are loaded ? 18:00 art_ in what function or at least file.. 18:02 art_ and one more thing why every side of boxes are painted by 4 verices 18:03 Anelisa Hi ! :) 18:04 marktraceur Anelisa: Ah, welcome! 18:04 marktraceur art_: I don't know, sorry 18:04 Anelisa Thanks ! 18:10 art sory internet problems .. 18:10 art so .. there was answer or not ? 18:14 marktraceur art: Nope 18:15 art as i thought .... ;( 18:20 art hmy so maybe sb will know what are u16 indices[] ... used in rendering blocks .. 18:21 marktraceur art: Unsigned, 16-bit integers 18:21 art and one more thing do u guys have idea who may known that ? 18:21 art ye that i known but what for that is used ... 18:22 marktraceur art: Can you please use full words? 18:22 art i'm sorry give me a moment please .. 18:23 art to put it simply it's part of graphical engine it's even in tutorial http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/docu/example003.html 18:26 art but there are two things i don't understand why there are 4 vectors with points instead of 3 ( it should be sufficient to draw triangle) and what are indieces in render() function 18:27 art in minetest source drawings looks almost identical 18:48 darkrose https://github.com/darkrose/minetest added a minetest.get_craft_recipe('output') to the lua api... now to see if c55 will include it 18:48 marktraceur darkrose: He'd have to be here for that :/ 18:49 darkrose he is, he's just hiding 18:49 * marktraceur doesn't get it 19:13 NakedFury how does that output work? 19:15 marktraceur darkrose: ^ and also does it return multiple recipes if they exist? 19:25 NakedFury would it be too much to ask for examples when someone wants something added to the api? 19:27 darkrose minetest.get_craft_recipe('default:torch') -> {type="normal", items={'default:lump_of_coal','default:stick'}} 19:27 darkrose minetest.get_craft_recipe('default:torch') -> {type="normal", items={0 = 'default:lump_of_coal',3 = 'default:stick'}} 19:28 darkrose and no, it only returns one recipe 19:28 marktraceur Sadness.
