00:00 iqualfragile_ and if you do not have high buildings
00:00 PilzAdam I suggest you to not mess arround with map_meta
00:00 Peacock thats why i was trying on a test map first heh
00:00 Peacock i already know changing the seed makes the chunks not line up
00:00 iqualfragile_ then you could just recreate your map using the same seed with floatlands
00:01 PilzAdam you have to switch to indev mapgen to get the floatlands, but I dunno if you can disable the farlands
00:01 PilzAdam ask proller
00:01 iqualfragile_ copy everything above some height and paste it into your old map
00:01 iqualfragile_ have backups ready!
00:01 PilzAdam if you have v6 currently, and switch to indev without disabling farlands then it will screw up the map
00:02 proller not very big screw
00:02 Peacock might be safer all around to add floatloands mod and have it use vmanip
00:02 proller just some flat edges
00:02 PilzAdam proller, that is like the worst thing that can happen when editing map_meta
00:03 proller and you can disable farlands by setting last two params to 1, 1
00:03 iqualfragile_ uhm… short guide on how to enable floatlands?
00:03 PilzAdam iqualfragile_, mg_name = indev
00:03 PilzAdam done
00:03 proller was: mgindev_np_terrain_base   = -4,   20,  (250, 250, 250), 82341, 5, 0.6,  10,  10
00:03 iqualfragile_ oh, ok
00:03 proller now: mgindev_np_terrain_base   = -4,   20,  (250, 250, 250), 82341, 5, 0.6,  1,   1
00:03 iqualfragile_ i thought you might need to add some more stuffs
00:04 PilzAdam Peacock, you can try what proller said
00:04 proller and for other mapgen noise params too
00:04 proller but better do it after map backup
00:04 PilzAdam Peacock, i.e. create a new world with mg_name = indev, copy the map_meta to your old world, change the seed to the old one, modify the noise as proller said
00:05 Peacock i wonder if having water up to y=100 complicates things
00:05 PilzAdam how do you set the water that high?
00:05 iqualfragile_ estimated height of the lowest commonly occuring floatlands?
00:05 Peacock using the oregen
00:06 PilzAdam iqualfragile_, changeable in minetest.conf, 500 by default
00:06 PilzAdam Peacock, I guess no problems then
00:06 proller at 500 they rare
00:07 proller but you can adjust it by noise params too
00:07 iqualfragile_ i am at 600 right now, should i go higher?
00:07 PilzAdam iqualfragile_, higher -> more frequent
00:07 proller and bigger
00:07 iqualfragile_ i hope that too high -> less frequent?
00:07 PilzAdam no, they are pretty common at 30000
00:08 iqualfragile_ ugh
00:08 iqualfragile_ so the minetest world is more like a cave
00:08 PilzAdam go to proller's sky server
00:08 iqualfragile_ oh, hey found one
00:08 PilzAdam (or teleport to 30000)
00:08 iqualfragile_ hello sweety
00:08 Peacock i wonder what an all-floland map would look like (no hard ground level)
00:08 iqualfragile_ at 300
00:09 iqualfragile_ well, it would basicly be some rocks floating in the air
00:09 proller on sky near spawn they rare too
00:09 proller but using secret portal...
00:10 iqualfragile_ hmm… this one looks a bit cut off
00:11 Pilcrow joined #minetest
00:12 iqualfragile_ http://mg.viewskew.com/u/iqualfragile/m/floatlandscut/
00:12 Peacock i guess paragen is newer/faster than moonrealm
00:12 PilzAdam yea, that is a bug that needs to be fixed (by proller)
00:13 Pilcrow figured out my luajit problem. the version 2.0.0b9 I was using was too old. after building the latest luajit 2.0.2 from source and recompiling minetest, nore's v7 mapgen mod works fine~  :)
00:13 PilzAdam "nore's v7 mapgen" huh=
00:13 PilzAdam *?
00:13 Peacock v7? i thought it was lua mapgen
00:14 Peacock (could almost use categories or tags to sort mods lol)
00:15 Pilcrow pilz, nore made a lua mapgen mod for v7. that's what I was talking about. sorry if it was unclear.
00:16 Peacock well if its a lua mapgen it doesn't matter which version of the default/buitin mapgen is used?
00:16 * Peacock needs a flowchart
00:16 Peacock lol
00:16 werwerwer_ joined #minetest
00:17 [0gb_us] joined #minetest
00:17 PilzAdam Pilcrow, can you point me to that mod?
00:17 Pilcrow I don't know. I thought I was told it only works with v7. could be wrong though.
00:17 Pilcrow just a sec
00:17 PilzAdam https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7263 this one is Lua only
00:17 PilzAdam has nothing to do with mgv7
00:18 Peacock mountains kinda look like cones or stretched spheres
00:19 Pilcrow ok. thanks for clarifying. guess I was under the wrong impression.
00:19 Pilcrow that's the one
00:21 Pilcrow anyways, I couldn't use it as my minetest build was confused by the goto commands. someone told me to use luajit, but I already was, so I figured my luajit version was outdated.
00:21 SpeedProg joined #minetest
00:22 PilzAdam goto is not in Lua 5.1
00:22 PilzAdam and Minetest uses Lua 5.1, so its incorrect to use it in Minetest mods
00:22 Peacock goto's do cause problems across versions
00:23 PilzAdam LuaJIT just took the goto from Lua 5.2
00:23 Peacock and bitwise operators, which you wont find in 5.1 either
00:25 Pilcrow that makes sense. still, they were used in that mg mod, so I had trouble getting it to work.
00:25 PilzAdam start a shitstorm at the mod thread that the mod doesnt work with Minetest then ;-)
00:26 Peacock it would probably make sense to either make jit the default or update the lua part, or at least have mods come with some sort of warning about which version they need to run on
00:26 PilzAdam Peacock, no, its defined to use 5.1
00:26 PilzAdam LuaJIT is fully compatible with 5.1
00:27 Peacock yeah but its got some parts of 5.2, so if someone writes a mod using those functions, and the user only has vanilla 5.1, thinks get, confusing lol
00:27 Peacock *things not thinks
00:27 Peacock lol
00:27 PilzAdam the mod author is wrong
00:28 Peacock i dont get why people can't use functions instead of gotos lol
00:28 PilzAdam because basic
00:28 [0gb_us] Functions can even be set aside in other files for clarity.
00:31 Peacock im old enough to remember learning with gotos lol prolly why it feels mesozoic to me lol
00:31 Pilcrow I was a qbasic kid  ;)
00:31 * PilzAdam feels surrounded by old men
00:32 Pilcrow nope, just poor. I'm 26 now.  :P
00:33 Peacock ill be pushing 30 soon lol
00:34 PilzAdam see? old men all arround
00:34 Pilcrow my family's first computer was an old win95 machine that I often booted into DOS from a floppy to play gorrilla and nibbles. eventually I got curious. then I taught myself to program, by experimentation.
00:34 Peacock its kinda funny that there seems to be as many old people playing this game than kids lol
00:34 Peacock win 95? lucky
00:35 Peacock ours was this: http://www.laptopjoy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/history-of-laptops.jpg
00:35 Peacock and running win 3.11 on it was like running ios7 on an old iphone today lol
00:36 Pilcrow that was when I was in like 8th grade though. before that we borrowed a 486 with 3.11 on it from my cousin. it was his "old" machine.  :P
00:37 Pilcrow lol, peacock, what IS that?  :P
00:37 Peacock a museum piece
00:37 Peacock lol
00:38 Peacock shoulda held onto it, coulda gotten our money back from a museum surely lol
00:38 Pilcrow lol
00:38 Peacock i dont know what 3-4K in 1980's dollars would be today
00:39 Pilcrow I still have a commodore VIC-20 I found at a garage sale for $10. not worth much, but a noteworthy little machine~  :P
00:40 Peacock http://www.dosgames.com/keen1.gif
00:42 Pilcrow lol, commander keen~
00:45 Pilcrow so PilzAdam, what's your 'nerd beginnings' story?  :P
00:46 PilzAdam http://youtu.be/SPQUn52PIfc
00:46 PilzAdam at school
00:46 PilzAdam its a hamster that runs Java
00:47 PilzAdam you can solve mazes and stuff
00:47 PilzAdam though, my teachers were unable to teach programming correctly, so I learned most of it in the internet
00:48 PilzAdam thats 4-5 years ago
00:50 Pilcrow pretty interesting. yeah, I totally understand learning most of it on the internet. the only *conventional* computer programming course I ever took, I failed horribly...  xD

00:54 Pilcrow heh, gotta love those old EGA colors... someone should do a minetest EGA texture pack...  @_@
01:22 zat1 Someone knows how different Minecraft is from Minetest? (never player Minecraft)
01:23 PilzAdam 42 different
01:23 PilzAdam I guess you need to be more specific
01:24 zat1 Items, resources, methods to get stuff (crafting, cooking), monsters, etc...
01:25 PilzAdam what Minecraft version?
01:35 PilzAdam bye
01:35 Pelayo i'd say minetest is similar to minecraft alpha
01:48 zat1 What would Minetest “lack” then?
01:59 kahrl a DRM launcher
01:59 VanessaE imho minetest really doesn't lack much, as an engine
02:00 VanessaE as a game, e.g. minetest_game, well, what it lacks depends on what you want to do.
02:00 Peacock bugfixes perhaps lol
02:00 Peacock (lagspikes on join, allocating player ids, people being transported to nirvana, etc.)
02:01 Peacock small nodeboxes flicker, the sky/horizon flickers u/g
02:01 VanessaE u/g
02:01 VanessaE ?
02:01 Peacock under ground
02:01 VanessaE oh
02:01 Peacock though over ground its parts of the map that flicker
02:02 Peacock and since 0.4.7 i get a hundred server anounce timeout warnings per day :P
02:04 Peacock texture_alpha, as well
02:04 Peacock i cant remember them all :P and everyone has their own list of issues
02:05 VanessaE have you filed github issues for any of these?
02:06 Peacock there are either issues, threads or it's been discussed openly
02:07 VanessaE well the devs would say they need to be on github
02:07 VanessaE (though as we've seen, that's not always 100% necessary)
02:08 Peacock well :P it either gets filed as obscure or you get a "works form (tm)"
02:08 Peacock *works for me(tm)
02:08 Peacock which is why i dont press the issues regularly :P
02:09 VanessaE well everyone here knows I don't give up on stuff very easily, and in particular that I don't hold my opinions at bay when something just doesn't fucking work right ;)
02:10 VanessaE (and then I come up with backtraces, test cases, etc. and everyone goes from "well, it works for me" to "wtf?  well, it's too hard to fix right now"  :P
02:10 Peacock 3/10 of the issues marked obscure are yours :P
02:10 VanessaE exactly :)
02:11 Peacock this one ain't young either: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=5301
02:12 Peacock and even though you say bugs should be filed on github, there's a stickied topic by PA explaining how to post bug reports on the forums :P
02:13 VanessaE I think that's for mod bugs
02:13 VanessaE not engine bugs
02:13 Peacock well if i couldn't guess that, i doubt anyone else is either :P
02:14 Peacock anyways, i dont expect all the bugs to be fixed overnight, but i wouldn't exactly call MT perfect/complete either :P
02:15 VanessaE https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues?labels=&milestone=1&page=1&state=open
02:15 VanessaE in theory, most of those ^^^^ will be fixed before 0.4.8
02:15 kaeza joined #minetest
02:15 VanessaE (allowing for the previously-discussed-in-dev problem of way too many new ones suddenly being added without reason recently)
02:16 Peacock thats kinda what i dont get, "rework formspecs" the formspecs aren't broken buggy, you'd think there'd be more urgent stuff :P
02:17 Peacock *broken or ...
02:17 kahrl it's a bad title
02:17 kahrl should be called "allow changing colors of textlists" or something like that
02:17 Peacock that or a description he
02:17 Peacock *heh
02:18 kahrl er s/textlists/inventory lists/
02:18 dafull97 joined #minetest
02:18 Peacock not sure what wingsuit does lol
02:18 dafull97 hey is anyone here good with minetest troubleshooting?
02:19 VanessaE depends, what's wrong?
02:20 Peacock is your computer plugged in?
02:20 VanessaE Peacock: Super Mario Bros.  when you jump, you can turn sideways in the air and direct your landing.
02:20 Peacock (just kidding :P)
02:20 VanessaE I think the wingsuit is the same idea.
02:20 VanessaE just over a longer fall distance
02:20 Peacock ahh okay, to me wingsuit sounds like a batman suit or something like that lol
02:21 VanessaE to me, a wingsuit is as seen in Transformers 3.  Doubt minetest will go to quite the extent shown there.
02:21 Peacock ugh, transformers, those movies are getting progressively worse lol
02:22 Peacock i like the 85/86 version, wish they had done that in live action
02:22 dafull97 VanessE if i try to connect to a server other than my own(still remote, it is a VPS) it crashes upon connecting
02:22 Peacock Ooo liquid range will be fixed (no more air pockets in my ocean world)
02:23 VanessaE dafull97: have you checked your debug.txt to see the cause of the crash?
02:23 dafull97 actually, no :D forgot about that, still new to minetest
02:24 VanessaE delete it, reproduce the crash, and pastebin the last 50 or so lines.
02:24 VanessaE give us the link to the paste.
02:24 Peacock tho youre right v, there do seem to be alot of milestone thingies lol
02:25 Peacock the paste: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Toothpaste.jpg
02:25 VanessaE eh....
02:25 Peacock :P
02:28 dafull97 VanessaE: Thanks, im working on it now...
02:29 dafull97 how long does it take to connect? (LandRush Server)
02:29 VanessaE depends on the server, but usually only several seconds if your cache is still full
02:30 VanessaE (an empty cache can take several minutes to fill)
02:30 VanessaE I'd think landrush would be pretty quick
02:31 dafull97 well, i connected last night... took about 5 mins, and then now when i load it crashes... working on the debug file
02:31 dafull97 maybe error in cache?
02:32 Vohveli joined #minetest
02:32 VanessaE hard to say
02:33 dafull97 ok, well working on debugs... still loading :(
02:35 dafull97 VannessaE you live in NC??? :D
02:35 dafull97 i always wanted to live their
02:36 Peacock she lives theyre yes
02:36 Peacock :P
02:36 * [0gb_us] thinks of content_nc in Minetest's code, and wonders if VanessaE lives at a poptart cat
02:36 dafull97 im jking, i live their too
02:36 dafull97 haha
02:36 VanessaE heh
02:37 VanessaE no, but the imagery used for poptart cats in HDX does come from a cat I used to have :)
02:37 dafull97 Peacock, you live in Germeny?
02:37 VanessaE is that close enough? ;)
02:37 Peacock naw, Khanada
02:37 VanessaE dafull97: yes.  Waynesville, NC to be exact.
02:37 Peacock Wayne's world, party time, excellent!
02:37 VanessaE there*
02:37 dafull97 nope, haha close
02:37 [0gb_us] Heay, that's probably as close as it could get.
02:37 [0gb_us] *Yeah
02:38 dafull97 i live in sanford, nc
02:38 dafull97 hahaha
02:38 Pelayo joined #minetest
02:38 Peacock sanford, why does that ring a bell?
02:38 dafull97 idk? haha
02:39 Peacock in the news lately?
02:39 dafull97 um, maybe?
02:39 dafull97 ha
02:40 dafull97 vannessaE: http://pastebin.com/k1ieFaig
02:40 VanessaE access violation!?
02:40 dafull97 um, yea?
02:40 dafull97 whats it mean?
02:40 Peacock aaah http://yro.slashdot.org/story/13/09/20/2151231/usaf-almost-nuked-north-carolina-in-1961-declassified-document
02:40 VanessaE usually that means something like the program is written for a different architecture than what you're using
02:41 VanessaE or maybe you don't have enough RAM?
02:41 dafull97 hmm, where is cache? i will reset... i was palying fine last night... and i can connect to my own VPS Minetest server
02:41 Peacock http://memepics.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/upgraded-ram.jpg
02:41 VanessaE dafull97:  in your minetest folder.
02:41 dafull97 hahaha @ Peacock
02:41 VanessaE minetest-blahblah/cache or /home/yourname/.minetest/cache
02:42 dafull97 im on windows, hah
02:42 Peacock in that case, try minetest-blabla/cache
02:42 VanessaE just find your minetest folder, cache is in there.
02:42 VanessaE also, try a different build.
02:42 Peacock if only cash was in there :(
02:43 dafull97 why differnat build?
02:43 VanessaE sfan5, PilzAdam, BlockMen, Fess, maybe thexyz still has them, etc.
02:43 VanessaE different*
02:43 VanessaE because sometimes it's just a matter of what's compiled into yours, versus what your hardware is actually capable of
02:44 dafull97 ohh, k
02:44 dafull97 i heard of PhilzAdam i think
02:44 VanessaE how much RAM does your box have?
02:44 * [0gb_us] hates his new music player
02:44 VanessaE PilzAdam*
02:44 dafull97 2.00GB
02:45 Peacock hehe, FizzAdam
02:45 VanessaE I'd think 2 GB would be enough.  Using any special texture packs?
02:45 dafull97 nope, defaults... like i said i can connect to my own... may be cache... reconnecting now
02:45 VanessaE hm
02:46 Peacock must be some server/client compat. thing
02:47 dafull97 i deleted all cache and retrying... hope it is that simple :D
02:48 STHGOM joined #minetest
02:51 VanessaE hopefully that works
02:52 VanessaE but it begs the question, why does it error-out like that to begin with
02:53 STHGOM How soon is minetest 0.4.8 going to be released?
02:53 dafull97 yea, true... i have no idea that is why i came here to help... it gave me a C++ Runtime error before it quit this time
02:53 VanessaE Soonâ„¢
02:53 VanessaE just C++ runtime error?
02:53 dafull97 but it is still loading... im talking about the recent debug log i gave you
02:54 Peacock Raptureâ„¢
02:54 dafull97 with that one it gave me that
02:54 VanessaE oh ok
02:54 Peacock (jk)
02:54 STHGOM It was going to be released soon a month ago...
02:55 Peacock so were much closer to Soonâ„¢ now than we were a month ago :P
02:55 [0gb_us] Soon is relative. Soonâ„¢ could be any time in the next decade.
02:55 STHGOM ok :D
02:55 Peacock Soonâ„¢ * pi / sqrt(lightspeed)
02:55 [0gb_us] Or it might not even be this decade. I don't even know.
02:56 STHGOM Bye
02:56 VanessaE STHGOM: help fix these and maybe... https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues?labels=&milestone=1&page=1&state=open
02:56 [0gb_us] Bye.
02:56 VanessaE that would help speed up the release.
02:57 VanessaE damn it.
02:57 Peacock he saw all the milestones and ran away :P haha
02:57 VanessaE lol
02:58 dafull97 C++ Runtime error
02:58 dafull97 pure virtual function call
02:58 dafull97 R6025
02:58 Peacock dunno what version of windows you gots, have you tried different compatibility mode settings?
02:59 dafull97 i have windows 8, running windows XP Service pack 3
02:59 VanessaE um
02:59 Peacock so which is it? lol
02:59 VanessaE you can't be running 'windows xp service pack 3" if you're running windows 8
02:59 Peacock lol
02:59 VanessaE unless you're doing this in a virtual machine
03:00 VanessaE (not a VPS, a virtual machine)
03:00 Peacock im running Linux Mac OS X ;)
03:00 dafull97 running Windows XP Service pack 3 in compatibility
03:00 [0gb_us] With VirtualBox, you can. Not that I'd recommend running either of those systems.
03:00 dafull97 no i have my server on a VPS,
03:00 dafull97 i have Windows 8 on my computer
03:00 Peacock with SP3 on top?
03:01 dafull97 and running this with compatibility in windows xp service pack 3
03:01 Peacock hmm
03:01 VanessaE when you connect to someone else's server, all that matters is what you run on your home PC where the client is running
03:01 Peacock allright, vanessa, you get the straight-jacket, ill get the chloroform
03:02 Peacock what happens with the other compat settings?
03:03 dafull97 im will try re-install, and i know that my vps has nothing to do with this... i was just clearing things up...
03:03 dafull97 @peacock it was working fine last night and this afternoon. just not wanting to work now... going to look at them
03:04 Peacock well what did you do since then?
03:04 Peacock system updates, update MT, ?
03:04 [0gb_us] GitHub is scaring me. "Are you sure you don't want to just downgrade your account to a FREE account? We won't charge your credit card anymore." I thought I was already using a free account.
03:04 Peacock lol
03:04 VanessaE [0gb_us]: weird
03:04 Peacock with how many times GH gets DDOS'd and hacked, i wouldn't trust them with a CC
03:05 [0gb_us] GitHub better not be charging me. If I find GitHub charges, I WILL dispute them.
03:05 Peacock did you give them a CC #?
03:05 [0gb_us] I didn't give them a credit card number, no.
03:05 dafull97 it was running in windows 7 compat, hmm...
03:05 dafull97 maye that the prob... but i dont think it is
03:05 dafull97 maybe*
03:06 Peacock well not sure about US law but im pretty sure they can't start charging you shit unless you consent to it first
03:06 VanessaE that is correct
03:06 VanessaE it would be considered 'credit card fraud' here if they did.
03:07 Peacock otherwise can you imagine the scams lol
03:07 VanessaE plus if he doesn't give a CC number it makes it 10x worse :)
03:07 Peacock well good luck collecting in that case lol
03:08 Peacock i dont even trust legitimate companies with "prepayment" options, i send checks, by horse and buggy
03:08 Peacock (ok the last bit is horseshit, but i do send cheques)
03:09 Peacock at least with cheques you got a papertrail and bank records
03:10 [0gb_us] I don't like checks myself. I prefer cash or cards.
03:11 [0gb_us] Cash is my favorite, but I've been using cards more lately to try to improve my credit score.
03:11 Peacock cash for small items ok
03:11 Peacock CC's is mortgaging paycheques
03:12 Peacock with variable limits and rates on interest, thx but no thx lol
03:12 [0gb_us] I use my credit cards similarly to debit cards: I only spend what I already have.
03:12 [0gb_us] That way, there are no fees.
03:13 Peacock thats why i stick to cash and cheques lol can't spend what i dont have, and it forces me to save instead of relying on credit for emergencies
03:13 [0gb_us] The limit issue is an issue though.
03:13 dafull97 question to all, to test your knowlege of computers... ready?
03:14 [0gb_us] You can write a bad check as easily as make a payment with a card that you can't cover. Checks don't help you in that regard.
03:14 Peacock well i dont write bad cheques :P
03:14 [0gb_us] And I don't make payments with the card that I can't pay right away.
03:15 Peacock card on the other hand, you miss a payment, your rate goes up
03:15 [0gb_us] My payments are set to auto-withdraw.
03:15 [0gb_us] No missed payments ever.
03:15 [0gb_us] dafull97, what's your question?
03:15 Peacock yeah i dont go for that automatic bullshit either, a few months ago my ISP started helping themselves to double and triple the amounts
03:16 Peacock (hence my need of papertrails now lol)
03:16 NakedFury joined #minetest
03:16 dafull97 What is the differance between C, and C++
03:16 Peacock the ++
03:16 [0gb_us] Don't the automatic payments leave a paper trail?
03:17 [0gb_us] C++ is messier.
03:17 dafull97 sort of.. and peacock, hahaha
03:17 Peacock they leave an electronic trail, but once the company has taken way too much, good luck getting it back
03:17 dafull97 make me laugh(in a good way)
03:18 dafull97 what does C++ have that C doesn't?
03:18 [0gb_us] Stealling three times the actual fee is illegal though. You can take them to court for fraud, as VanessaE said.
03:19 [0gb_us] More options for object orientation, overloading, et cetera?
03:19 Peacock you still have to hire representation, how will you do that if your utility just took you the cleaners?
03:19 dafull97 nice 0gb_us you know programming?
03:19 Peacock and even then the CDN system takes at min. months, if not years
03:19 [0gb_us] I don't know C or C++, but I do program a little.
03:20 [0gb_us] Not in those languages.
03:20 dafull97 i know just a tiny C++
03:20 dafull97 what languges?
03:20 [0gb_us] You can dispute the charges with the card company.
03:21 Peacock i wish i had the energy for all these remedies, but its much simpler to write a cheque for the proper amount :P
03:21 [0gb_us] I forget all what languages. I always leave some out. PHP, JavaScript, sh, Lua, Python, Java, and maybe some others.
03:21 Peacock i tend to *lose my cool* speaking to reps over the phone lol
03:22 [0gb_us] Keeping track of the checks is something I don't have the time or energy for. I guess to each their own.
03:22 [0gb_us] For me, a single check is a pain in the bett.
03:22 Peacock never heard of carbon copies? :P
03:22 [0gb_us] *butt
03:23 [0gb_us] Carbon copies don't make it better. The issue is that they could be deposited any time in the future. There is no time when I can "reset" back to the bank's number, so to speak.
03:23 Peacock though youre right about one thing, i had to accuse them of billing fraud before they backed off on 400$ of charges lol
03:23 dafull97 nice, i know batch, sh, python, little ruby, little perl, little php, html, some javascript, and maybe 1 or two im forgetting im tired haha
03:24 Peacock though the whole time they kept trying to get a CC number (so they could just take the money)
03:24 [0gb_us] With card charges, I see the charge right away, and paper money's value this way is obvious.
03:25 [0gb_us] HTML isn't a programming language. But if you want to count that, I also know XHTML, XML, and CSS.
03:26 dafull97 yea, alot of people dont... i just include it.. i know a little XML... barely used
03:26 [0gb_us] I tried Ruby, but it wasn't for me. Then again, neither is Java.
03:26 dafull97 same here... python is best for me
03:26 [0gb_us] A lot of people don't what?
03:26 [0gb_us] I can't say I LIKE Python, but it's easy to use.
03:27 dafull97 alot of people dont include html as a programming language
03:28 [0gb_us] HTML ISN'T a programming language. It's a markup language. There is a huge difference in how programming languages and markup languages function.
03:28 [0gb_us] Anyone calling HTML a programming language is, simply put, wrong.
03:29 dafull97 yes, true... like i said i just include it... :)
03:30 [0gb_us] I include it if asked about languages, but I don't include it if asked about programming languages. Or rather, I include/exclude XHTML. I never say I know HTML.
03:32 dafull97 yes... HTML is a markup language... one good thing about knowing how that kind of stuff works, is that these 8 year old "hackers" going blow computers up hahah
03:32 dafull97 makes me laugh hard
03:33 VargaD joined #minetest
03:34 [0gb_us] I wonder what CSS is though. I know it's not a programming language, but it doesn't seem much like a markup language; it contains no structure definitions.

04:39 NekoGloop [0gb_us], scripting
04:40 [0gb_us] CSS doesn't seem like a scripting language either. Scripting is a subset of programming. Are you sure on that, or just guessing? If you're sure, I'll take your word for it.
04:41 thexyz stylesheet language
04:42 [0gb_us] So style sheets get their own category of languages? I suppose that makes sense, they don't seem to fit into any other category.
04:45 [0gb_us] Interesting ... content_mapnode.cpp refers to a "default:coalstone", but minetest_game contains no such node.
04:57 neko259 joined #minetest
05:21 NekoGloop It's Client Side Scripting. Of course it's a scripting language.
05:22 [0gb_us] CSS is Cascading Style Sheets. Or at least, the CSS I'm talking about is.
05:22 [0gb_us] I'm talking about the CSS used to style web pages.

08:32 JamesTait Good morning all, happy Punctuation Day! :-D
08:33 [0gb_us] Awesome! I had no idea such a day existed, but I do understand the importance of punctuation, and I wish more people used it.
08:35 blaaaaargh if punctuation didnt exist we would write like this it looks silly and is totally uncomprehensible see what I mean
08:36 [0gb_us] It's not silly when people are too lazy to use punctuation, it's just aggravatingly hard to read.
08:37 blaaaaargh http://the100meterscroll.com/
08:38 [0gb_us] Hmm. kaeza is everywhere. You never know what user is actually kaeza in disguise.
08:39 kaeza :DDD
08:39 [0gb_us] Usually if there is a new random nick, it turns out to be you a few seconds later.
08:40 kaeza I have this only one, diemartin, and blaaaaargh.
08:40 [0gb_us] I'm thinking about changing my nick to "us`0gb".
08:40 [0gb_us] Maybe I'm thinking of someone else then ....
08:41 VanessaE zero_gb_dot_us  :-)
08:42 [0gb_us] What about when the actual zerogb.us shows up though? Or zero-gb-dot.us?
08:42 kaeza www.dotcom.com
08:42 VanessaE register them all? :)
08:42 kaeza lol that one exists :P
08:42 [0gb_us] THere's a www.dot.tk and I think there's a dot.free.
08:43 kaeza oh it's a registrar
08:43 [0gb_us] Register them all? Like I have the money ... I'm even thinking about dropping my other name (zerogigabytes.com) to save some cash.
08:43 kaeza I expected something in the veins of downloadmoreram.com
08:44 VanessaE I meant the IRC nicks, silly :)
08:44 [0gb_us] If only downloading RAM were an option ... But then hardware would take up disk space, and as the hard drive is hardware, it would be recursive.
08:45 kaeza lol downloadmorecores.com
08:49 [0gb_us] When I discuss the "real zerogb.us", I mean whoever registers zerogb.us in DNS. To use that name without owning it would make me an impostor. You kave no idea what it's like to have OCD ... I spent several hours trying to create a puny code-like system for encoding node names yesterday ... I was at work and had nothing else to think about while doing my mindless work, but still. The point is that the "zero_gb_dot_us" name can't make it past my OCD u
08:49 [0gb_us] nless I actually own that name in DNS. And it probably can't even make it if I did own it.
08:52 [0gb_us] The best part of using an FQDN as a user name is that it is by definition unique to me. There are a million people who use names based on hobbies and whatnot, but no one will use my domain name but me unless they are specifically impersonating me. Made up domains don't have that quality.
09:01 [0gb_us] That link doesn't even fake allowing you to download cores the way the RAM site does. It just sells AMD laptops.
09:03 [0gb_us] I already have an AMD laptop, and I'm not all that happy with it. I think I'll go for a Think Penguin, once I have money, or another second-hand laptop if I need a replacement before I have money.

18:03 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan coffee stays about the same but the food is getting worse apparently
18:03 thefamilygrog66 it cleans you out pretty well, if you happen to be constipated
18:03 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan its funny that their coffee at the grocery store tastes better than their coffee in their shops

19:43 Pilcrow hey guys
19:43 Calinou Pilcrow id'd werecrow
19:43 Calinou hi
19:43 thecaffeinegrog6 How would I code it so that physics override happens for a set period of time (say 300 seconds, for example)?
19:43 blaaaaargh rar has berrer compression than zip by large
19:44 blaaaaargh berrer?
19:44 blaaaaargh better!
19:44 Pilcrow calinou: who's werecrow? my name's a grammatical symbol  :)
19:45 blaaaaargh Pilzcrow?
19:45 thecaffeinegrog6 ^^^
19:45 thecaffeinegrog6 Ye olde mushroom crow
19:46 Pilcrow blaaaaargh: and 7z *usually* has better comression than rar, although it's close...
19:47 blaaaaargh Pilcrow, indeed
19:47 Pelayo_ joined #minetest
19:47 FreeFull 7z is slower though
19:47 FreeFull At least, for higher compression levels
19:47 Pilcrow I'm trying to compile a 32-bit linux version of minetest, but I'm getting lots of errors. I'm probably missing something, but I don't really know what...
19:47 blaaaaargh anyone tried lzip?
19:48 blaaaaargh http://alleg.sourceforge.net/docs/lzip_compression.en.html
19:48 Pilcrow blaaaaargh: how about tar+xzip?  :P
19:48 thecaffeinegrog6 Any ideas re: my physics override question?
19:49 blaaaaargh "LZIP is an amazing format, isn't it? They sometimes manage to compress files down to 0 bytes!"
19:49 FreeFull xzip will produce slightly smaller files than gzip
19:49 PilzAdam thecaffeinegrog6, well, use set_phiscis_override() and minetest.after()
19:50 blaaaaargh set_piscis_override()
19:50 blaaaaargh there's one for each zodiac sign
19:50 thecaffeinegrog6 thanks PilzAdam - I'll mess around with it for a bit
19:51 Pilcrow anyways, if anyone can help me with this I'd appreciate it...  http://pastebin.com/7nNghBTc
19:52 Calinou set all nodes to disable fall damage by default, maybe
19:53 thecaffeinegrog6 PilzAdam, does set_physics_override() work with 0.4.7, or do I need a newer version?
19:53 Pilcrow that's an unmodified git source, btw
19:53 PilzAdam dunno, look in the changelog
19:54 thecaffeinegrog6 it's in the lua_api.txt file for the version I have, so I'm gonna assume it works
19:55 Jordach hmm okay
19:55 * Jordach has reference material
19:55 Jordach woo
19:56 * Jordach isn't a fan of cold war era video
19:57 Jordach 16mm camera
19:57 PilzAdam I have LODR 1 and 2 on VHS
19:57 PilzAdam *LOTR
19:57 Jordach and it's in BLACK AND WHITE
19:57 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan and you need to wind up the VCR with a crank!
19:57 * Jordach thinks a B&W render might be in good taste
19:57 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan :P
19:58 PilzAdam Jordach, Im pretty sure you mean grayscale instead of black and white
19:58 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan that shit demagnetizes over time, even more if you actually watch them lol
19:58 Jordach they mean the same thing over here
19:58 PilzAdam no, they dont
19:58 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan but thats like dvd's randomly not playing after a year ortwo
19:58 PilzAdam (people in germany think that too, but they are also wrong)
19:58 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan ever recorded shit in EP?
19:58 FreeFull Khaaaaaaaaaaaan: That's why you convert the video to digital
19:59 neko259 joined #minetest
19:59 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan its alot more noticeable with EP :p
19:59 thecaffeinegrog6 OH NO, BETA!
19:59 Pilcrow no help for me then, eh?
19:59 PilzAdam Jordach, black and white means literally only black and white; while grayscale has all shades of gray inbetween
20:00 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan its funny tho, the family had the same VCR for nearly 20 years, whereas DVD players, ive had 5 in 4 years lol
20:00 Jordach BETAMAXC
20:00 Jordach -C
20:00 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan then i figured it was cheaper to buy a 2tb hdd
20:00 Jordach true
20:01 thecaffeinegrog6 I use to have one of those videodisc machines - 12" record type things housed in a plastic case that you inserted into the machine. It kept the disc and spat out the case, and actually used a stylus to play the movie, which you had to flip over halfway through.
20:01 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan media companies like to blame piracy but they brought it on themselves :P with extended cuts, director's cuts, masterpiece editions, flat screens, 3d tv, dvd, bluray, etc. lol
20:02 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan 3d tv, that lasted all of a year, maybe less lol
20:03 Calinou lol 3D TV
20:04 Pilcrow there are overlaps between grayscale and B&W though. tecnically the original gameboy had a black and white screen (err, green and dark green)... it got the 2 other shades by blinking at different rates, using the screen's "ghosting" properties to achieve a mostly-constant color...  :)
20:04 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan lol they like to sell you the same shit over and over
20:04 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan oculus rift, sounds like a cocktail
20:04 Jordach 0x20, the final frontier: http://i.imgur.com/EQPru9H.png

20:04 * thecaffeinegrog6 still pulls out the original gameboy sometimes. Greentastic.
20:05 Jordach (im a lazy texturer)
20:05 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan wife plays GB games on an emulator lol

20:07 thecaffeinegrog6 I used to have one of those 50-in-1 cartridges from Japan, and I played this Japanese version of Asshole (the card game) repeatedly on a flight from Toronto to Vancouver - kept me sane.
20:07 Jordach i have one sitting in this room connected to my Samsung Smart TV
20:07 * Calinou has a 6 year old 42" plasma TV, not even HD
20:07 Jordach oh and btw, i HAVE GOLDENEYE
20:08 Calinou few stuff on TV is HD anyway
20:08 thecaffeinegrog6 n64 emulator is fun too
20:08 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan ugh, cant stand flying, seats get smaller while the passengers get bigger
20:08 Pilcrow I've got a lot of old systems. like 3 n64, a couple gameboy... and at least one working Sega GameGear!  :D
20:08 Calinou lol
20:08 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan a real star-trekian exercise in having two people occupy the same point in spacetime
20:09 thecaffeinegrog6 that makes no logical sense, captain
20:09 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan the worse is busses when you have a free seat next to you and a lady who obviously needs two squeezes in lol
20:10 Pilcrow or an old man who smells like he hasn't showered in the last 2 years...
20:10 Jordach http://i.imgur.com/7O0Osuy.jpg <- john_minetest
20:10 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan smelly people on public transit is a fact of life lol
20:10 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan if its not the people, its the food they eat
20:11 thecaffeinegrog6 people should all just stop eating, ffs
20:11 Jordach dont get me started on busses with the chinese and indians
20:11 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan naw they should just tax most junk food like they tax everything else bad for ya
20:11 Jordach john_minetest, it still works; we even occasionally play mario party
20:12 Jordach john_minetest, i have it as well as lylat wars (star fox 64)

20:12 Jordach now you do
20:12 thecaffeinegrog6 here, play this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVAiZN9obXo
20:13 Pilcrow my copy of ocarina of time still works fine. I even play it sometimes. usually I just emulate it instead, though.
20:13 thecaffeinegrog6 mask of majora
20:14 Jordach thecaffeinegrog6, is that your youtube
20:14 Jordach Pilcrow, is your copy GOLD?
20:14 thecaffeinegrog6 yeah, Jordach
20:15 Pilcrow that maze makes me want to play nethack again... and yes, Jordach, it is.  :)
20:15 thecaffeinegrog6 it's prompting me to install java, john_minetest
20:16 thecaffeinegrog6 I suppose if you want to play minecraft, haha
20:16 Pilcrow also have majora's mask, but can't play it as I don't have the n64 mempack upgrade...
20:17 Calinou never heard of Oberon
20:17 Calinou also java is ok
20:17 Calinou it's 15-20% slower than C++ but runs on all OSes
20:17 Calinou and is also a bit easier to set up I guess
20:17 thecaffeinegrog6 easily exploited too
20:18 Calinou like any language...
20:19 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan they should be written in JavaScript
20:19 Calinou yes but you need to compile it for each OS
20:19 * Khaaaaaaaaaaaan runs away
20:19 Calinou painful for OS X and windows :P
20:20 Pilcrow I think everyone should use BASIC, especially for programming operating systems...  :P
20:21 Jordach free subscribe to all minetest community members
20:21 PilzAdam 10 PRINT("NO!") 20 GOTO 10
20:21 Jordach S/NO!/nope.avi/
20:22 Calinou john_minetest: yes, only the JRE
20:22 thecaffeinegrog6 don't be knocking the BASIC...
20:22 thecaffeinegrog6 some of us old farts were weaned on it!
20:22 Pilcrow lol I still dabble in qbasic. I've got both qb64 and freebasic on my current machine
20:23 PilzAdam Java isnt overrated
20:23 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan well it never really lived up to its full promise either (java)
20:23 PilzAdam which one?
20:23 thexyz lol @ 15-20% slower
20:23 Evergreen <offtopic>If anyone wanted to see, here is the state of my desktop (all the panels aren't actually showing all the time, just done for the screenshot) http://i.imgur.com/tjUKIkm.png </offtopic>
20:23 thexyz that's not how you measure performance
20:24 Calinou thexyz: if you use latest openjdk, it is 15 to 20% slower usually
20:24 Calinou maybe even better :P
20:24 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Write_once,_run_anywhere
20:24 Pilcrow assembly? that's about as non-portable as you can get  :P
20:25 PilzAdam desktop icons? who uses them still?
20:25 Calinou I never use them, but I show them
20:25 Calinou lol
20:25 Evergreen I don't, they are just there
20:25 Calinou my Xubuntu config is quite default, but I use single click to open stuff, I have compositing off on my desktop
20:26 Evergreen A lot of where my config came from is being used to unity
20:27 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan ughughugh singleclick lol
20:27 Evergreen Hence the side bar with launchers
20:27 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan give her the Alt-D
20:27 Pilcrow I've hated the *buntus for a long while. 8.4 was good, 8.10 was buggy, and everything after that just sucked...
20:28 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan buntu, either my graphics or my wifi didn't work, on any given version lol
20:28 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan they had one good version before going all NIH on it's users
20:28 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan "gnome 3 sucks? here's unity! we can suck more"
20:29 Pilcrow lol @Khaaaaaaaaaaaan, you couldn't be more right
20:29 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan john you're lucky, beer is cheap in Germany :P installing ubuntu is quite expensive for me :(
20:30 thexyz Calinou: come on, there's no such thing as "usually" when we're talking about code
20:30 Calinou Khaaaaaaaaaaaan: single click = saves hand power
20:30 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan dont wanna know what you're saving it for :P
20:31 Calinou lol
20:31 Pilcrow I like single-click, but I'm in kde. each icon in the file manager has a "+" that if you click on it will select the file rather than open it.
20:32 PilzAdam singleclick in KDE works fine for me
20:32 thexyz also, the thing about "write once run anywhere" is shit
20:32 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan more like "write once, debug everywhere"
20:32 Calinou have fun compiling for windows and OS X and distributing it :P
20:33 thexyz even that wikipedia article tells you that
20:33 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan i know, PA wanted to know why i thought JAva was bull lol
20:34 Calinou once you set it up it's easy
20:34 Calinou but the first time you do it on windows or OS X it's painful
20:34 Calinou I never got it working personally
20:34 sfan5 meow
20:34 * Khaaaaaaaaaaaan gives sfan cat treats
20:34 sfan5 :-(
20:34 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan mine sits for them and raises her paw lol
20:34 Calinou hi sfan5
20:35 harrison every time i try to compile, i become cross
20:35 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan though the cat got used to getting them when people leave, so when it's been too long, she brings me to my shoes and tells me the gtfo so she can have cookies lol
20:35 thexyz while "nice looking" is totally subjective I think some posts should be removed from https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=6755

20:37 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan drugs.... https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=111690#p111690
20:38 Calinou screen with a caption isn't necessarily bad
20:38 Calinou the font is bad, though
20:38 thexyz https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=104323#p104323 too
20:38 Calinou and a wallpaper that isn't a photo should always be a .png :>
20:38 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan no but a caption on a white box? cmon
20:38 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan hell yahoo 95' homepage
20:38 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan *hello
20:38 Calinou yeah, that looks bad
20:39 thexyz I'd prefer http://i.imgur.com/h9FzXEM.jpg without "MINETEST" label
20:39 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan i have to stop looking at that or i'll get a seizure lol
20:40 thexyz honestly, I think this "Minetest" caption we now have everywhere looks like shit
20:40 thexyz but that's subjective, right?
20:40 thexyz also, previous design of the main website was better
20:40 Calinou yeah
20:40 Calinou more flat-designy :P
20:41 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan well... i can tell it's minetest without the caption, MC textures arent exactly the same
20:41 Calinou but the current one is easier to edit for admins, and has more content
20:41 thexyz this has nothing to do with design
20:41 thexyz just looking at the main page http://minetest.net/ makes me cry
20:41 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan well instead of a bunch of screens thrown together, you could have one screen thats a script that loops through the screenshots thread in general
20:42 thexyz that too
20:42 thexyz but those gradients look bad too
20:42 thexyz background
20:43 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan and you have a start tab, and a seperate menubar on top, wtf? lol
20:44 thexyz "start tab" is just page title
20:44 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan cant all the menubar items be tabs?
20:44 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan or just highlight home in the menubar instead of having the tab
20:44 Pilcrow why does it all lead to the screenshots thread, anyway? the images could showcase popular mods, and clicking on a pic will take you to its mod thread.
20:44 thexyz dunno, not touching it!
20:45 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan yeah whoever made that design wouldn't be happy lol
20:45 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan (if it got changed i mean)
20:45 thexyz I still think prowseed's design is the best one
20:46 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan maybe hold another design contest so no one can get pissed off at the winner lol
20:47 thexyz well
20:47 thexyz everyone but me seemed to like it
20:47 thexyz and at the same time everyone but me seemed to hate prowseed's design because it looks too professional
20:47 thexyz or something like this
20:47 Khaaaaaaaaaaaan well i thought (at the time) it looked too much like MC's website

21:00 Evergreen Gpong back to previous conversation, I liked the old design of the website much better.
21:01 Pilcrow I only started playing minetest after 0.4.4 was released. it hasn't changed much since then, that I recall
21:02 Miner_48er joined #minetest
21:02 PilzAdam Pilcrow, what irrlicht version do you have?
21:02 Pilcrow irrlicht-svn 3843
21:04 Pilcrow not really sure how old that is. I'll try compiling the latest from source.
21:04 PilzAdam be sure to not use a pre-release 1.8
21:05 PilzAdam its known that it doesnt define u64
21:05 Pilcrow ok
21:05 PilzAdam you can patch Minetest to simply define it, though
21:10 Pilcrow ok, thanks for the help. sorry, just trying to get minetest working on another computer. my main one is 64-bit and more updated, so compiling it in there worked fine...

21:27 Pilcrow thanks, PilzAdam. updating irrlicht seems to have fixed my problem.  :)

21:35 Pilcrow hello, blaaaaargh
21:35 blaaaaargh o/
21:36 Pilcrow I just installed minetest on a 2-year-old linux install.  :P
21:37 * blaaaaargh .
21:38 Pilcrow chakra linux, a fork of arch
21:41 Pilcrow yeah, it's pretty nice. not as outdated as, say, debian, but more stable than arch.
21:42 Pilcrow it's what I use in my machine too, but they switched to 64-bit-only with recent versions, so this old beast was out of luck.  :P
21:42 blaaaaargh joined #minetest
21:43 Pilcrow pacman -Syu will rarely, if ever, break anything in chakra (even with the testing repo enabled). as I recall, you need to be a bit more selective with updates in arch...
21:43 harrison debian outdated lol
21:44 harrison not if you run bleeding edge debian++ such as siduction
21:44 harrison like the best coders do
21:45 Pilcrow harrison: and then it has stability issues since sid is not intended for production use.  ;)
21:45 harrison you are compiling minetest on a 6-sigma uptime corporate server?
21:46 Pilcrow nah, I'm just saying I prefer a little more stability. doesn't need to be bullet-proof, but I'm fond of global updates...
21:47 harrison thus the "outdated 32bit linux"
21:47 harrison i see
21:48 harrison your preferences are strangely odd....
21:48 Pilcrow no, no, this is an old computer. my main box is more up to date.
21:50 Pilcrow chakra was installed on this thing before they dropped 32-bit support, and it'd take some effort to back up its files and install something current...
21:52 Pilcrow ǝlɟɟɐʍ ʍlɟɟɐʍ ǝlɟɟɐʍ
21:54 Pilcrow anyways, I'm gonna shut this thing down and get on my main computer.  :)

23:49 PilzAdam am I on the good side again?
23:50 dafull97 what you mean by that ^^
23:50 kahrl I see ponies on this side. So yes.
23:50 PilzAdam dafull97, the Minetest version is at the top-left corner of the screen
23:51 PilzAdam *window
23:52 dafull97 it is in a VPS, which means that i connect via ssh

23:52 PilzAdam kahrl, why dont we have a --version ?
23:53 kahrl we don't?

23:54 PilzAdam kahrl, also, changing the version after releasing to something new (e.g. with -dev at the end) would help a lot
23:54 kahrl I see some people do that in screenshots
23:55 kahrl I think proller does it
23:55 kahrl we should adopt that, yes
23:55 PilzAdam I see a lot of people here that say "I have 0.4.7" but they actually have latest git
23:55 PilzAdam dafull97, what command?
23:55 dafull97 --info
23:56 kahrl --info enables infostream output to stdout
23:56 PilzAdam --info prints the Minetest version
23:56 PilzAdam but we should still add --version
23:56 dafull97 that is what i did... so what is wrong?
23:57 PilzAdam anyway, so what is your Minetest version?
23:58 NakedFury so many times the question what is your minetest version has been asked already
23:59 PilzAdam MinetestBot should do that for us...
23:59 dafull97 yes, i have told them already?
23:59 NakedFury you havent
23:59 NakedFury you said irrlicht version not minetests version
