15:30 jojoa1997|Tablet was the optifine zooming pull request added cause i cant find it on minetest's github
15:41 RealBadAngel     im pretty sure it wasnt merged
15:43 jojoa1997|Tablet i found it
18:21 Zeg9             Could anyone consider this ? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/648
18:22 Taoki            If anyone else is interested in colored lights: forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=84299
18:22 Taoki            erm, http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=84299
18:31 iqualfragile     RealBadAngel: could you please merge Zeg9s pull request in?
19:00 Taoki            hmmmm: I remember you worked on doing some changes to the lighting system once. Is that correct?
19:19 ShadowNinja      Taoki: he optimized a lot of lighting code
19:20 Taoki            ok
19:21 Taoki            Wanted to ask if maybe he can help with colored lights. I only figured part of it out
19:26 ShadowNinja      hmm, I like the idea, but if we get dynamic lighting it will have to be re-done. Is true dynamic lighting possible? Or would it make minetest slow? If it is posible it would be better to do it while adding dynamic lighting as it will be easiest to do it at the same time.
19:33 proller          want to commit finite water tune: https://github.com/proller/minetest/commit/e4da7578ca085e07be251cb9d23563cb03c245fa
20:37 hmmmm            colored light cannot be done at the mapnode level
20:40 ShadowNinja      hmmmm: Do you know if dynamic lighting is practical for minetest?
20:41 hmmmm            probably not
20:41 hmmmm            dynamic lights are really slow
20:43 ShadowNinja      hmm, could it be an option? That way more powerfull computers can have it but older computers would be able to run Minetest.
20:43 hmmmm            well why don't you code it
20:43 hmmmm            it's really easy to suggest things, no?
20:43 ShadowNinja      Because I don't know how
20:44 hmmmm            then it won't get done
20:44 ShadowNinja      *sigh*
20:46 hmmmm            *sigh* :( that sucks so much, doesn't it?
20:46 hmmmm            as if there isn't 1000 other cool features being added that would need to be put on hold in order to accomplish dynamic lighting
20:46 Taoki            hmmmm: They prolly can be done, just a bit harder to figure it out
20:46 Taoki            They were already done in the past
20:46 Taoki            But the code got lost
20:48 ShadowNinja      Are you currently working on the Lua HUD?
20:49 ShadowNinja      If so how close to completion is it?
20:49 hmmmm            yes, i am working on the lua hud, it's pretty close to being finished
20:49 hmmmm            it's not fun
20:50 hmmmm            i had to change basically everything
20:50 hmmmm            it's not like it's broken code, it's just that things are done in such a way that it's crummy
20:50 hmmmm            i honestly feel like it would've been easier if i just did it all on my own from scratch
20:51 Taoki            yay for lua hud
20:51 hmmmm            i have to put what i was working on (mapgen V7) on hold for the lua hud
20:52 hmmmm            because if i didn't do it, somebody else would commit it as-is, which is not good
22:25 celeron55        often the best result is achieved by considering the first implementation just a prototype
22:25 celeron55        even if it was intended to be final
22:27 celeron55        also, if somebody wants to implement a modernly rendered version of MT, just fork it with keeping a distant future merge in mind
22:29 celeron55        probably so much need to be changed for a proper modern implementation that it would be hard to keep them in the same codebase
22:30 celeron55        and it would just hinder both implementations
22:48 VanessaE         .
22:49 VanessaE         oops.
22:49 VanessaE         um, hi.
23:11 jojoa1997|Tablet how is the mapgen coming along
23:33 ShadowNinja      jojoa1997|Tablet: hmmm is working on the Lua hud currently
