My server is not even trying to announce when server_announce = 1 |
00:06 |

(USE_CURL was used) |
00:06 |
zat |
What might it be? |
00:06 |

(compiling from latest commit) |
00:12 |
diemartin |
zat, did you use -DUSE_CURL=1 or -DENABLE_CURL=1 ? |
00:12 |
diemartin |
ENABLE_CURL is the correct one AFAIK |
00:13 |
zat |
curl |
00:13 |
zat |
cool* I will check, I was using the USE_ one. |
00:14 |
diemartin |
also, I'd use -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1 |
00:14 |
diemartin |
but that's just preference |
00:14 |
zat |
I am using it :) |
00:14 |

ok so i have a question |
00:41 |
us`0gb |
Your question has been taken into consideration. Please hold while we deliberate upon an answer. |
00:42 |
Whitemau5 |
i havent even asked it yet -_- |
00:43 |
PilzAdam |
this brins the question up: why havent you asked it yet? |
00:43 |
PilzAdam |
*brings |
00:44 |
diemartin |
nanomo, a PC with Microsoft Windows XP or later installed, and optionally an user |
00:44 |
nanomo |
diemartin: i have a win2003 server and minetest close right after the cmd console it's showed |
00:45 |
diemartin |
maybe also a relatively recent graphics card and CPU |
00:45 |
PilzAdam |
nanomo, do you have opengl support? |
00:45 |
nanomo |
diemartin: if i run a cmd ,. change the directory to /bin and run minetest.exe --help nothing happens |
00:45 |
diemartin |
(dual core recommended, though it's reported to run on a P4) |
00:45 |
nanomo |
PilzAdam: it's a VPS, so i don't think there is some graphic card |
00:46 |
PilzAdam |
--help doesnt work? thats strange |
00:46 |
nanomo |
nope, but if i use the same files on win7 every works |
00:46 |
Whitemau5 |
ok here it is: i want ot create a skin for minetest so i can play it, but i dont know: is there a specific webistie to create a minetest skin or can i use a minecraft skin creator website such as: minecraftskins.com |
00:47 |
PilzAdam |
Minetest's skins are compatible with Minecraft's |
00:47 |
PilzAdam |
so yes, you can use that editor |
00:48 |
Whitemau5 |
ok because i want to make a skin on minecraftskins.com and have someone upload it for me on minetest on a server but i wanted to make sure i kne wwhat to do |
00:50 |
Whitemau5 |
thanks bye |
00:52 |

nanomo, I dont like to suggest that, but try running it as admin |

01:01 |
PilzAdam |
Im out of ideas now |
01:01 |
PilzAdam |
what a shitty OS just closes programs without... anythin? |
01:02 |
dafull97 |
PilzAdam, i might could help a little... i Remoted to his Computer/Server |
01:02 |
nanomo |
PilzAdam: yes, and seems not to create debug.txt neither |
01:03 |
PilzAdam |
well, if --help doesnt work then it simply doesnt start the program at all |
01:04 |
dafull97 |
nanomo, can i conenct via remote again... i might have one more idea |
01:04 |
* PilzAdam |
wouldnt give dafull97 access... |
01:05 |
dafull97 |
why not, i already did... im not a hacker -_- |
01:06 |
zat |
Damn the only thing I need to get working is giving certain privileges to one user, and modifying the auth.txt when the server is off does not work. |
01:06 |
dafull97 |
i can help with that zat |
01:06 |
dafull97 |
minetest.conf |
01:06 |
nanomo |
i did :S |
01:07 |

There I am, viming the file. |
01:07 |

cd .. |
01:07 |

01:07 |
dafull97 |
crap |
01:07 |
dafull97 |
haha |
01:07 |
zat |
kik |
01:07 |
PilzAdam |
the fact that you are not a hacker is why I wouldnt give you access |
01:08 |
PilzAdam |
if you were a hacker then you would follow the ethical guidelines of the hacker community |
01:08 |
dafull97 |
i c, i'm meaning i would make a shortcut to the minetest.exe file and put --help as a aruguement |
01:09 |
PilzAdam |
that wouldnt help |
01:09 |
dafull97 |
and see the output |
01:09 |
dafull97 |
how not? |
01:09 |
dafull97 |
then see if the program was functionable at all |
01:10 |
PilzAdam |
because it does the same thing as typing that into a cmd? |
01:10 |
dafull97 |
yea true, haha |
01:10 |
dafull97 |
beside that it runs as administrator |
01:10 |
dafull97 |
with shortcut |
01:10 |
dafull97 |
run cmd as admin then it the same thing |
01:11 |
dafull97 |
zat, goto minetest.conf and search for name and set the name of your main admin or whatever and un "#" it at the beginning |
01:12 |
dafull97 |
save it |
01:12 |
dafull97 |
restart server |
01:12 |
zat |
Yes dafull97, I am the admin, but I want to give fly, noclip and teleport to another user. |
01:12 |
PilzAdam |
you should first shut down the server, then edit minetest.conf, and then start again |
01:12 |
PilzAdam |
btw |
01:12 |
dafull97 |
in game goto chat, /grant <username> fly |
01:12 |
dafull97 |
and replace fly with priv |
01:13 |
zat |
I want them to persist |

such as /revoke <username> <privalege> |
01:14 |

it does not |
01:14 |
dafull97 |
hmm, it should? |
01:14 |
zat |
the user logs out and they are still the original |
01:14 |
dafull97 |
you can edit it in the players section |
01:14 |

found it! /.minetest/worlds/yourworld/auth.txt |

add privs |

you save it right? the /grant <username> <privs> worked for me and save |

dafull97 |
until i /revoke |
01:19 |

It does work, I see. That particular male griefer bee can make for a good pet if it has honey and a small home container. |
01:24 |
* dafull97 |
is getting on his server |
01:25 |
PilzAdam |
zat, so, did I understand it correectly? /grant works while the player is logged in, but when he quits and rejoins then it doesnt work? |
01:32 |
zat |
Right Pilz. |

do you get any warnings about file access issues? |

some are more specialized than others, depends on what you're doing |

what for? |

On more of the network side, and Gaming, and overall |

02:25 |

what scale of development |
02:25 |
zat |
how complicated will it be |
02:25 |
zat |
elaborate |
02:25 |
thefamilygrog66 |
kahrl, I was laughing at BASIC, cause it's the first one I learned back in the 1980s (I'm old) |
02:26 |

Oh, yeah. Laughing at BASIC is permitted. |
02:26 |

That said, my last mod - the hedge maze one - was based on an old BASIC program I copied out of compute magazine in '81. |
02:26 |
dafull97 |
what would you suggest |
02:27 |
zat |
need low maintainance? need performance? need stability? |
02:27 |
zat |
what is more important? |
02:27 |
thefamilygrog66 |
zat, mine was commodore basic, on a PET then a C64 |
02:27 |
zat |
thefamilygrog66: ok wat lol |
02:28 |
dafull97 |
i've been more into scripting... what is them, zat |
02:28 |
zat |
if you are more into scripting, take a look at lua or javascript. |
02:29 |
zat |
for the most pro level of performance... C/C++ |
02:31 |
dafull97 |
ok, what is the best for networking... Lua, or javascript |
02:31 |
kahrl |
what kind of networking? |
02:32 |
thefamilygrog66 |
zat - here's what I learned on: http://www.cosam.org/images/pet/pet.jpg |
02:32 |
dafull97 |
overall networking |
02:32 |
kahrl |
lua by itself doesn't have networking functions as it's based on the C library |
02:32 |
dafull97 |
ok, so C/C++ better for Networking? |
02:32 |
kahrl |
don't know about javascript, aside from that you can obviously use it in a HTML page |
02:33 |
thefamilygrog66 |
dafull97, if you're referring to website stuff, php and javascript |
02:33 |
dafull97 |
no, more of client/Server stuff |
02:33 |
thefamilygrog66 |
ahh, gotcha |
02:34 |
dafull97 |
lua, what is that used for mostly? |
02:34 |
dafull97 |
beside mods |
02:34 |
kahrl |
you can do pretty much anything in C and C++, but you might need to write a lot of code depending on what you want |

pitriss |
dafull97: you can't compare c/c++ and lua.. c/c++ is programing language, lua is scripting language |
02:44 |
dafull97 |
now is lua still used activly? |
02:44 |
thefamilygrog66 |
you could also get fancier: io.write("Hello world, from ",_VERSION,"!\n") |
02:44 |
dafull97 |
pitriss, i know this |
02:45 |
kahrl |
scripting languages aren't programming languages? turing would disagree... |
02:45 |
dafull97 |
im trying to decide a programming language/scripting langu\uage to learn |
02:45 |
dafull97 |
almost same, i agree |
02:45 |

Oh, nice! |

08:12 |

What? Bleh. |
08:12 |

I don't know about VMware, but I don't like those others. |
08:13 |
Calinou |
that's what you study in CS courses |
08:13 |
Calinou |
john_minetest: and expensive as hell |
08:13 |
Calinou |
but well, we all know all unis use pirated SW 8D |
08:13 |
Calinou |
that's not the same thing |
08:13 |
Calinou |
virtualbox is slower, but it's FOSS |
08:13 |

we didn't have to use proprietary software in most of our CS courses, but a number of students used facebook |

openoffice is dead, vive libreoffice |

I like VirtualBox. It even allows file transfers between systems and copy/paste, et cetera. |
08:14 |
Calinou |
vmware can do that too, I guess |
08:14 |
Calinou |
downsides of VirtualBox is slower 3D accel, slower CPU stuff |
08:15 |
us`0gb |
I'm not using proprietary software in most of my computer courses either. |
08:16 |
us`0gb |
I use it to run Xubuntu, which has Flash installed. I need Flash to access my seminars. |
08:16 |
kahrl |
actually the only closed-source software I remember we had to use was some graph drawing software by a company affiliated with our algorithms professor |
08:16 |
us`0gb |
I guess I need proprietary software for all my courses ... But usually nothing other than Flash. |

png doesn't support animation, and noone uses apng :( |
08:20 |
Calinou |
so gif is like flash here :P |
08:21 |
Calinou |
yes, but noone uses it, chrome(ium) doesn't even support it by default, you need a extension |
08:21 |
us`0gb |
PNG unofficially supports animation. I've seen animated PNGs. |
08:21 |

firefox got quite better as of firefox 22 but it still takes ~3-4 secs to start compared to chromium's < 1 sec |

Do you know how to kill my wireless card? |
09:02 |
VanessaE |
your computer knew you wanted to keep chatting :P |
09:02 |
VanessaE |
you probably need to kill your hostapd daemon first |
09:02 |
us_0gb |
I do want to chat, but I also need to experiment with something. |
09:02 |
VanessaE |
(or wpa_supplicant) |
09:03 |
VanessaE |
(or Network Manager) |
09:03 |
us_0gb |
Hmm. THat sounds like it's outside my current skill set. I'll have to put it off for now then. |
09:03 |
VanessaE |
one of those is keeping your wireless alive automatically. |
09:04 |
us_0gb |
Yeah, I bet you're right. I lost connection for a couple seconds and something brought it back. |
09:04 |
VanessaE |
in your panel, there should be a network connection widget. right click that and there should be a checkbox for wireless |
09:04 |
VanessaE |
uncheck that and it should shut off the wireless, if I remember right |
09:05 |
us_0gb |
Right lick brings up a single-item menu. THe item is "About", and is just credits for the indicator applet. |
09:06 |
VanessaE |
left click then |
09:06 |
us_0gb |
No worries though. I have another experiment to keep me busy. |
09:06 |
VanessaE |
depends on your desktop/window manager |
09:06 |
VanessaE |
xfce puts it in two separate menus, gnome I think crams it all into one |
09:07 |
VanessaE |
others may vary |

I have good news and bad news. The good news is that I've located the cause of my computer freezing when it wakes. The bad news is that the cause is the wireless card. |
09:10 |
VanessaE |
I ran into that last time I installed; network manager wanted to control my wireless device, but I wanted manual control. |
09:10 |
VanessaE |
damn |
09:10 |
VanessaE |
bad hardware? |
09:11 |
us{0gb |
Yeah. If by "bad" you mean "the developers didn't release specs so people couldn't build the needed firmware/driver". |
09:12 |
VanessaE |
heh |
09:13 |
VanessaE |
well I meant actual hardware failure :P |

us{0gb |
Oh, nothing like that. This time. |
09:13 |
VanessaE |
"this time"... heh |
09:13 |
us{0gb |
I suppose it's the developers' policy that's bad, not the hardware. |
09:14 |
us{0gb |
Well, I've have two hard drives die on me and earlier today, I couldn't even boot the BIOS, so yeah, this time. |

Trisquel freezes when waking from sleep and gNewSense doesn't, but can't use the wireless card. |
09:19 |
us{0gb |
But it seems it doesn't freeze BECAUSE it can't use the wireless card, so I've narrowed my solution search. |

D is always on |
14:35 |

ahh so no need to worry about it then? |
14:36 |

nope thast should always be on unless someone comes and mess with my stuff |
14:37 |

for functions like that, microcontrollers are simpler. |

hmm so this can be issue on landrush server then |
14:44 |
VanessaE |
only if someone depends on them and they're yanked away suddenly. |
14:44 |

otherwise I guess everyone has to use LuaC's |

yeah |
14:45 |

an inverter and a solar panel is enough |
14:45 |

oh i didnt know |

sure you can. |
15:14 |

usually it's just right click the bar, "add to panel" or something similar |

What is the best Linux distro, not Including ..buntu |
15:16 |
VanessaE |
the best? well for n00bs, Xubuntu or Mint. For the experienced, probably Debian or Fedora. For the hackers, probably Arch or Gentoo |
15:17 |
VanessaE |
for the insane, Slackware :P |
15:17 |
Dan_D |
Xubuntu is ..buntu |
15:17 |
VanessaE |
Xubuntu is Xubuntu. It is not Ubuntu. |
15:17 |
Dan_D |
No, but it ends in buntu |
15:17 |
VanessaE |
doesn't matter. |
15:17 |
Dan_D |
Therefore it is shit and bad |
15:18 |
VanessaE |
the *buntus get their stuff from the Debian world. |
15:18 |
Dan_D |
I have tried Lubuntu,Ubuntu, Kubuntu and I can't use them without them becoming unusable after a couple of days |
15:18 |

I used Xubuntu for years, quite happily. Only reason I switched was a perceived performance issue (that turns out didn't exist) |
15:18 |

try Xubuntu then. |

Lubuntu and Kubuntu break, Ubuntu lags like hell |

15:20 |
VanessaE |
well try Xubuntu anyway |
15:20 |
Dan_D |
Maybe. |
15:20 |
VanessaE |
it's not like you HAVE to install it. it's a live DVD/CD |
15:20 |
Dan_D |
Does it come in the Wubi installer? |
15:20 |
VanessaE |
you can just run from there but remember that running from optical media (or USB thumbdrive) is SLOW. |
15:20 |
VanessaE |
idk, maybe |
15:20 |
VanessaE |
I've never used that method, as I don't dual-boot |
15:21 |
Dan_D |
And bootloading disks do NOTwork |
15:21 |
VanessaE |
(If I need windows some day, I'll use a virtual machine) |
15:21 |
VanessaE |
what do you mean bootloading disks doesn't work? |
15:21 |
Dan_D |
My computer ignores them and goes straight to Windows |
15:22 |
VanessaE |
because your BIOS is probably configured to ignore optical media |
15:22 |
Dan_D |
Also, how do I get rid of KolibriOS? I deleted all the files, but it is still in BIOS as dual boot. |
15:22 |
VanessaE |
this is not an OS issue, this is a BIOS issue, easy to fix on most machines. There'll be a boot menu where you can select what media/drives you can boot from |
15:23 |
VanessaE |
that's not BIOS, that's the master boot record on your hard disk |
15:23 |
Dan_D |
But how do I get rid of the dual-boot thing? |
15:23 |
VanessaE |
easiest way to remove that entry is to fiddle with grub a bit |
15:23 |
Dan_D |
But HOW?? |
15:23 |
Dan_D |
I can't work out how to do anything with grub... |
15:24 |
dafull97 |
VanessaE, why do you own so many servers? |
15:24 |
VanessaE |
I don't know how to make that change, except that you'll have to first get into your BIOS, make sure you can boot from CD/DVD/USB. From there, boot with any random Linux disk, doesn't matter what. |
15:25 |
VanessaE |
dafull97: I have two, and they're both running on my home PC. |
15:25 |
Dan_D |
What xubuntu install size should Iselect? |
15:25 |
dafull97 |
and PilzAdam, are you here? |
15:25 |
dafull97 |
VanessaE, oh... thats awesome.... i like running mine in VPS security Reasons... =D |
15:26 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: for the disk size? 4GB is sufficient for a base install + most stuff. 8GB is enough for a full suite with everything under the sun |
15:26 |
Dan_D |
Ok |
15:26 |
VanessaE |
1GB RAM is enough to get you going nicely. 2GB recommended. |
15:26 |
VanessaE |
less is usable, if slow. |
15:26 |
Dan_D |
I have 2gb ram |
15:26 |
dafull97 |
256mb ram is enought to run minetest server right? |
15:26 |
Dan_D |
And how do I get rid of KolibriOS |
15:27 |
Dan_D |
Maybe |
15:27 |
dafull97 |
VanessaE, 256mb ram is enought to run minetest server right? |
15:27 |
VanessaE |
dafull97: not really. |
15:27 |
dafull97 |
really? |
15:27 |
VanessaE |
512MB is better. |
15:28 |
pitriss |
dafull97: nope.. even 510MB was too low |
15:28 |
pitriss |
*512 |
15:28 |
VanessaE |
With 256MB you'll find your server will crash often due to out of memory |
15:28 |
pitriss |
it was laggy for 5 ppl connected |
15:28 |
VanessaE |
512MB will be enough for most stuff, the server uses about 300-350MB RAM but you want enough for your OS too |
15:28 |
dafull97 |
on mine? |
15:28 |
Dan_D |
How do I dispose of KlolibriOS |
15:28 |
VanessaE |
er your VPS's OS anyway |
15:29 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: you have to use GRUB to do it |
15:29 |
VanessaE |
but I have no idea how as it's been years since I had to mess with that |
15:29 |
Dan_D |
How do I useGRUB |
15:29 |

(or just re-install if you have to) |

pitriss, im meaning ws you connected to my server? |
15:31 |
Dan_D |
And how do I get this repair tool? |
15:31 |
VanessaE |
make backups and don't let Windows re-format your disk |
15:31 |
VanessaE |
it should be built into Windows, if I remember right. Something about "rollback"? |
15:31 |
Dan_D |
I can't make backups, the disk is corrupt and nothing gets backed up. |
15:32 |
VanessaE |
it's been too many years. |
15:32 |
VanessaE |
what disk is corrupt? |
15:32 |
pitriss |
dafull97: i wasn't there.. we have own private server: |
15:32 |
VanessaE |
your system drive? |
15:32 |
Dan_D |
C:\ |
15:32 |
VanessaE |
if it was, you couldn't boot from it |
15:32 |
Dan_D |
Yep |
15:32 |
dafull97 |
pitriss, ohh... ok... so what is the recommecnded memory? |
15:32 |
VanessaE |
your drive is not corrupt |
15:32 |
Dan_D |
But backup won't do any backups of the programs file, because it claims corruption. |
15:32 |
pitriss |
dafull97: 1GB is fine, our serve have now 2.5GB |
15:32 |
VanessaE |
just make some backups to an external drive, or to CD/DVD, or to another computer, or to "the cloud" |
15:32 |
VanessaE |
nononono |
15:33 |
VanessaE |
use your file manager |
15:33 |
VanessaE |
copy your stuff to a safe place the old fashioned way |
15:33 |
Dan_D |
And also, I have several corrupted non-deletable files on mycomputer |
15:33 |
VanessaE |
forget automated backup tools |
15:33 |
Dan_D |
And when I boot windows, I get a thing that is meantto check for corrupted files, but it crashes. |
15:33 |
VanessaE |
forget all that for the moment |
15:34 |
Dan_D |
Also, Windows explorer crashes if I right-click things in it,leading to the loss of the start menu |
15:34 |
VanessaE |
just fire up your file manager and dump everything you want to save onto a thumbdrive or DVD or something |
15:34 |
VanessaE |
ok, then you'll have to back your stuff up from the command line |
15:34 |
VanessaE |
(the "CMD prompt" or whatever they call it now...the old DOS prompt_) |
15:35 |
Dan_D |
Ah, I hate command line |
15:35 |

well when the GUI is busted, you have to use the command line :) |
15:35 |

15:36 |

iOS isn't though |
15:36 |
dafull97 |
pitriss, RAM?? |
15:36 |
VanessaE |
you could also boot from any random linux CD/DVD/USB after you change your BIOS settings, use THAT to do the backup |
15:36 |
werwerwer_ |
Dan_D is there anything good in OS's then? |
15:36 |

(using the file manager that goes with whatever desktop yoyu're using) |

No, I like windows, it is just full of Crashiness |
15:38 |
VanessaE |
of course it is, if your fs is as corrupt as you say |
15:38 |
Dan_D |
VanessaE: HTF do I backup without command line, and without a file manager? |
15:38 |
VanessaE |
you're lucky any of your personal data is still reachable. |
15:38 |
Dan_D |
Yeah |
15:38 |
werwerwer_ |
Dan_D use any linux live cd |
15:38 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: by going into your BIOS and making your PC boot a Linux distro of any kind |
15:38 |
VanessaE |
and use that |
15:38 |

Some prgrams,like GIMP, have just randomly stopped working, and never boot |
15:38 |

ok, so just copy everything else to D:/ from your linux install (the Wubi one), then shut down and unplug that drive. |
15:40 |
VanessaE |
Re-install windows (again, you HAVE to make your BIOS boot from your install media) |
15:40 |
Dan_D |
Ok |
15:40 |
VanessaE |
then shut down again and re-connect the D:/ drive |
15:40 |
Dan_D |
How do I re-install Windows? Do I download it from somewhere? |
15:41 |
VanessaE |
you should already have a "recovery" CD |
15:41 |
Dan_D |
Oh. IDK where if I do. |
15:41 |

Dan_D, oh deer |
15:41 |

15:41 |

15:42 |
Dan_D |
I didn't install Windows |
15:42 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: you're fucked. |
15:42 |
VanessaE |
get off of that busted OS now, while you still can |
15:42 |
Dan_D |
And I am using the Wubi installer for ..buntu Distros |
15:42 |
Dan_D |
Ok, do backups, I am also half-way through installing Xubuntu. |
15:43 |
Dan_D |
My internet is so damn slow |
15:43 |
VanessaE |
if your underlying OS is busted, that Wubi installer is likely to fail also |

15:44 |
Dan_D |
I think only some parts of C:\ are corrupt |
15:44 |
VanessaE |
If C:/ is corrupt, NOTHING is safe |
15:44 |
VanessaE |
and that's especially true of an overlaying OS |
15:44 |
Dan_D |
Program Files mainly |
15:44 |
Jordach |
all subdirs of C:\ are FUCKED. |
15:44 |

if your house's foundation were crumbling, you're not gonna be safe building on a second story on your house. |
15:44 |
Dan_D |
Unless it's minetest |
15:44 |
werwerwer_ |
if c: and d: are different physical disks, than d: is more or less safe |
15:45 |
Dan_D |
In which case it will hover :) |
15:45 |
Dan_D |
They are partitions I think |
15:45 |
VanessaE |
then you're doubly screwed. |
15:45 |
Dan_D |
So they aren't safe I guess |
15:45 |
Dan_D |
Ah, bugger |
15:45 |
VanessaE |
if C:/ is truly failing, D:/ will fail soon |
15:45 |
VanessaE |
a partition only separates the data, it doesn't separate disk-level corruption |
15:46 |
Dan_D |
Windows Backup backups everything except Program Files, and Appdata |

does your PC just freeze up or reboot without warning? |
15:47 |
Jordach |
Dan_D, from you're statements, your machine has 3 months |
15:47 |
werwerwer_ |
than it's likely to be software fail |
15:47 |
Dan_D |
Sometimes the Desktop freezes, which is annoying |
15:47 |
VanessaE |
hm, looking at Wubi here.. |
15:47 |
Dan_D |
And sometimes desktop and start menu disappear entirely |
15:47 |
werwerwer_ |
it's just explorer crash |
15:47 |
VanessaE |
get a Linux distro on there NOW. get your data off that disk before the OS dies completely. |
15:48 |
Dan_D |
Ok |

After the explorer crash, I have to reboot |
15:48 |
VanessaE |
then if you wanna go back to Windows, go find and download a safe, clean copy and re-install from that |
15:48 |
Dan_D |
And also, linux once took mt system up to 80+ *c |
15:48 |
VanessaE |
(I can't help you with where to get one, you could always buy a copy in an local computer sture) |
15:48 |
Jordach |
Dan_D, then you're using the wrong OS |
15:48 |
Dan_D |
Which is worrying |

Dan_D |
Just under 40 Minutes to go before Xubuntu is downloaded |
15:51 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: I'd be more inclined to blame your broken Windows filesystem since Linux sits on top of it in those Wubi-installed situations |
15:51 |
Dan_D |
Just to say, last night, it said over 532334 Hours to go, when downloading a .zip |
15:51 |

(Linux in a disk image, sits in the Windows filesystem. If the windows fs is busted, it can corrupt the linux image) |

The laptop only cost ~£150 though |
15:52 |

either way Jordach's estimate is right - you've got roughly 2 or 3 months of life left in that PC if you don't fix it. |

which slot on the fruit machine VanessaE |
16:18 |
us{0gb |
VanessaE, does Audacious keep playing songs if you tell it to play only one? If not, I'll give it a try. Basically, I'm looking for a music player with that one simple feature. |
16:18 |
VanessaE |
Jordach: http://www.winamp.com/skin/cpro-expensive-hi-fi/221928 |
16:18 |
VanessaE |
that one. |
16:19 |
Jordach |
us{0gb, clementine does that if you set it to replace current playlist and not append |
16:19 |
VanessaE |
though my version is a bit older than that |
16:19 |
us{0gb |
But there is a setting that does not do that? |
16:19 |

16:20 |

Face it, my computer SHALL NOT DIE! |
16:20 |

16:21 |

whole list also* |

i used to use this until i found a replacement: http://www.winamp.com/android |

Dan_D |
VAnessaE, apart from the how-the-person-died thing, can you think of any other improvemetns to the death name mod? |
16:21 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: it's already dead. filesystem corruption is like mold - it spreads if it isn't treated. |
16:21 |
VanessaE |
no |
16:21 |
us{0gb |
Okay, good. Playing a single song a single time is such a simple feature, but several music players I've tried lack it. And it's the only way I choose to listen to music. |
16:21 |
Dan_D |
Yeah, I have a corrupt file in my dropbox which is annoying |
16:22 |
VanessaE |
us{0gb: one that's more handy for that task is actually mplayer. |
16:22 |
VanessaE |
it's designed for that play-once-and-quit usage |
16:22 |
VanessaE |
audacious isn't, but it does work. |
16:23 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: eventually, a corrupt library gets loaded, writes out a file you needed, but that file gets written wrong...later you open it up, it calls forth another library that reads it wrong because of the corruption, that library crashes |
16:23 |
us{0gb |
Mplayer looks like it doesn't have the library feature, but that's at first glance without installing it. I'll install it and see. |
16:23 |

next thing you know you're hitting Reset or Power or whatever |

Xubuntu would be great, if it weren't for that fact that it isn't fully free. |
16:32 |
Jordach |
this is why education should have better IT courses, rather than just IT for business |
16:32 |
VanessaE |
it's free enough for most people |
16:32 |
VanessaE |
Jordach: we didn't need computer courses when I was growing up. We learned it ourselves. |
16:32 |
us{0gb |
WHat's broken? What is an FS? I'm assuming it's not a file system, that's easy to fix with an install. |
16:32 |
VanessaE |
when I was his age I was already coding my first games and such |
16:33 |
VanessaE |
us{0gb: his windows filesystem is corrupted, crashy, and requires rebooting his PC by way of the magic power switch |
16:33 |
us{0gb |
VanessaE, that's because computers didn't use to be difficult because they didn't run WIndows. |
16:33 |

(That's about the lack of courses in the past.) |

I dunno, computers back in the day were essentially CLI-based. |

a lot of people would argue that such things are more complicated than a GUI |

More complicated than a normal GUI, yes. More complicated than WIndows including all the maintenance you have to do because Windows breaks itself, no. |

Eg, unified dyes vs some small mod |

um, let me look... i have landrush and currency, firearms mod |

unified dyes IS small. |

simple mobs |

now, you put some of paramat's mods on there...you better have some GOOD hardware :) |

Xubuntu takes ages to load... It is still 'configuring hardware' |

probably not normal |

The mobs sometimes don't attack, and sometimes their animations don't change to the attack one when they chase you |

16:54 |

(for me i just right click it then press play) |
16:54 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D|ipod: that's more a problem of server lag than network latency |
16:54 |
VanessaE |
since the mapgen itself more or less runs in the same thread as the Lua stuff |

VanessaE, how do I get the latest Minetest nightly build, in Xubuntu? |
17:09 |
VanessaE |
HIYAH! YAH! *insert other random chop-socky here* |
17:09 |
VanessaE |
;) |
17:09 |
* us{0gb |
does not recommend running without a desktop, however |
17:09 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/README.txt#L83 |
17:09 |
VanessaE |
folow this, to the letter. |
17:09 |

overall, with a desktop of corse |
17:09 |
Dan_D |
Ok |
17:09 |

us{0gb: servers too? :P |
17:09 |

I am sure someone here is running full cli |
17:09 |

I know someone that can get a server to boot in 1.5s with only slightly higher-end hardware. |
17:09 |
* sdzen |

17:10 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: with one exception: you could just git clone the sources instead of grabbing zips if you want to. |
17:10 |
us{0gb |
Well, servers are different. My server has no desktop, but it's not being used as a client either. |
17:10 |
us{0gb |
My server runs headless. Like a chicken. |
17:10 |
Dan_D |
Also, I want it to be all in a folder on the desktop, RUN_IN_PLACE I think the term is. |
17:11 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: there is also a nightlies PPA, here: https://launchpad.net/~minetestdevs/+archive/daily-builds |
17:11 |
VanessaE |
(the PPA is much easier to use) |
17:11 |
sdzen |
but what if Dan_D has a curfew? :) |
17:11 |
Dan_D |
VanessaE, can you tellme how to install the nightly as a run in place build, easily |
17:12 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: the nightlies PPA isn't run-in-place |
17:12 |
VanessaE |
it's a system-wide installer |
17:12 |
Jordach |
what if i told you that Xubuntu is M$ owned |
17:12 |
VanessaE |
I'd say bite your tongue |
17:12 |
sdzen |
I would believe it |
17:12 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: for linux run-in-place you'll have to compile. |
17:12 |

you guys that run your servers 24/7 from home how do you generate money to pay for electric? haha |
17:12 |

VanessaE uses that iirc |

Okay, not run_in_place,but how to get the latest basically, and keep it updated? |
17:13 |
VanessaE |
dafull97: my total power bill runs me less than $100 a month in the summer, and about $150 in the winter. the PC barely registers,. |
17:13 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: the PPA. |
17:13 |
Dan_D |
VanessaE, how to use the ppa |
17:13 |
sdzen |
VanessaE, do you use appliances or are you foraging for berries? |
17:13 |
Dan_D |
Is there a big fat 'Install Minetest Here!' Button? |
17:13 |
VanessaE |
open a terminal and do: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:minetestdevs/daily-builds; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install minetestc55 |
17:13 |

17:14 |
Dan_D |
How do I keep it updated? |
17:14 |
Jordach |
Xubuntu has a faster GUI, Ubuntu? SLOOOOOWWWW |
17:14 |
VanessaE |
dafull97: Xubuntu is the Ubuntu base stuff plus XFCE and related imagery |
17:14 |
us{0gb |
Ubuntu has a pesky interface and is slower. It also comes with Amazon ads. |
17:15 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade |
17:15 |
VanessaE |
minetest will be updated along with the rest of the system |
17:15 |
VanessaE |
think "patch tuesday" but without all the reboots. |
17:15 |
Dan_D |
How do I get the terminal? |
17:15 |

unity is an evil version of gnome |
17:15 |
dafull97 |
im thinking hard about switching to Xubuntu, Dan_D how much faster is it? |
17:15 |
Dan_D |
Also, I only want to update Minetest,not everything |
17:15 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: in the Xfce menu, Accessories |
17:15 |
Dan_D |
Xubuntu is like ligtning on My Netbook |
17:15 |
VanessaE |
there are a few terminals listed there. Choose your favorite. |
17:16 |
Dan_D |
Ah tahsnk |
17:16 |
VanessaE |
(Xfce's terminal is in Xfce menu -> System) |
17:16 |

Same here. Xubuntu is way fast on my laptop as well. |
17:16 |

ctrl + t (if your DE/UI does this) |
17:16 |

i mainly swirtched to Linux because people say its faster than windows, i have older Laptop.... then i "fell in love" with it hahahaha |
17:17 |
VanessaE |
(that keystroke is based on a keyboard I had years ago, where there were some generic media keys. the one I used for the terminal was right above F1) |
17:17 |

now enjoy your tearing |
17:18 |
* Jordach |
had a joke; was too offensive |
17:18 |
Dan_D |
The one thing I don't like about Xubuntu is whenever I move my mouse to the bottom of the screen to select this box to type stuff in the IRC client, the applications bar pops up and blocks my line of sight. |

first thing I do after xubuntu install: remove bottom panel (dock) |
17:19 |
Jordach |
i have done so before |
17:19 |
Dan_D |
Ok |
17:19 |
us{0gb |
Dan_D, I know, that can be a bit annoying at times, but if you don't want to get used to it, you can remove that bottom bar. |
17:19 |
VanessaE |
Calinou: two docks, autohide, with the launcher at the top. |
17:19 |
Calinou |
on my netbook I autohide top panel too |
17:19 |
Dan_D |
VanessaE, what was the sudo command to just update Minetest and nothing else? |
17:20 |
Calinou |
Dan_D: depends on how you installed it |

Dan_D make Youtube video? i would love to see it before i switched |
17:20 |

Dan_D: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install minetestc55 |

VanessaE |
Calinou: nightlies PPA. |
17:20 |
Dan_D |
Ok thankis |
17:20 |
Dan_D |
dafull97, I can't really make a video, but you can try a dual boot of it or a live CD |
17:21 |
dafull97 |
ok, thanks anyway =D |
17:21 |
dafull97 |
be back in a few |
17:21 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: the "update" step tells the package manager (apt) to download the latest program listings and trawl through them looking for new versions. apt-get upgrade actually downloads those new versions. apt-get dist-upgrade is more agressive, but I forget what the real difference is. |
17:22 |

How do I remove the bottom panel? |

I want blu ray 3d support in Linux, what do I do? |
17:23 |
Dan_D |
So I, to update minetest, do: |
17:24 |
VanessaE |
thexyz: ehm...that's still iffy but I guess VLC and some commercial util |
17:24 |
Dan_D |
sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install minetestc55 |

Dan_D: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install minetestc55 |

yes |
17:24 |
Dan_D |
Yay |
17:24 |
Dan_D |
I actually remembered something for once :P |
17:24 |
thexyz |
VanessaE: correct answer is either to install windows or mess with wine and reencoding |
17:25 |
Dan_D |
Where will the minetest icon/whatever be? |
17:25 |
VanessaE |
thexyz: no, there's some stuff for linux to do it now. you basically have to rip the disc first though |
17:25 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: I don't know that it'll be in the menus. |
17:25 |
VanessaE |
run it from Alt-F2 |
17:25 |
VanessaE |
or from a terminal |
17:25 |
thexyz |
VanessaE: I'm sure there is not but could you kindly give me the links? I think H.264 MVC isn't implemented in ffmpeg/libav |
17:25 |
VanessaE |
or add it to your panel if you want |
17:25 |
thexyz |
so there's no chance of BD3D working |
17:25 |
us{0gb |
Installing Windows is never the correct answer. |
17:25 |
Dan_D |
How to from terminal? |
17:26 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: just "minetest" :) |
17:26 |
Dan_D |
Ok |
17:26 |
thexyz |
and, well, if it's not implemented in ffmpeg/libav then it's probably not implemented anywhere |
17:26 |
VanessaE |
thexyz: been too long since I read about it. |
17:26 |
Dan_D |
Sounds simple enough |
17:26 |
Dan_D |
Wait-GIMP comes with Xubuntu? Awesome! |
17:27 |
thexyz |
VanessaE: okay, I have VLC laying around, let's see |
17:27 |
Jordach |
thexyz, what point of VLC does everything don't you ever understand |
17:27 |
VanessaE |
thexyz: looks like it does it via the usual win32codecs hook |
17:27 |
us{0gb |
The Minetest icon should be in the menu under "Games". |
17:27 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: yes |
17:27 |
Dan_D |
Also, my school uses GIMP 2.8 which is almost impossible to use |
17:27 |
* Jordach |
prefers 2.6.12 |
17:27 |
Jordach |
i aint upgrading ever |
17:27 |
VanessaE |
us{0gb: oh, so it is! I didn't realize it got added to the menu. |
17:27 |
Jordach |
as long as it remains compatible with future versions of windows, i'll use it |
17:28 |
us{0gb |
It does from the stable PPA, anyway. I don't know for sure about the nightly PPA. |
17:28 |
VanessaE |
Jordach: I hated it at first, and still hate the export-versus-save duality, but after a while you get used to it and actually find yourself missing it when you have to use 2.6 |
17:28 |
VanessaE |
us{0gb: it does from source too. never noticed before. |
17:29 |
us{0gb |
It does from source? I've never had it do that from source. Maybe it's disabled if you tell it to run in place. |
17:29 |
* us{0gb |
always runs in place when compiling |
17:29 |

VanessaE, 2.6 ftw, i dont like the Photoshop like UI |
17:29 |

Wow, 15FPS in Minetest,that is 8 more FPS than in Windows |

I've grown up on 2.6, i'll die using 2.6 |

17:32 |
us{0gb |
Yeah, IRC clients are more convenient than the web interface usually. |
17:32 |
VanessaE |
the some time ago, yes but maybe it was plain BD and not BD3D |
17:32 |
thexyz |
or you don't remember and said "it works" just because you got confused and thought I was talking about BD |
17:32 |

right |

where did I say "it works"? |

yeah, there I misread BD3D as just BD |

And I will install Xubuntu as the first program installation when I get a new laptop definately |
17:35 |

VanessaE: replies from developers look like "The reason 3D isn't implemented in any major media players is because nobody cares about 3D except television manufacturers. Also because there's no standardized method of outputting 3D video. There's about 6 different methods out there, at least, all of them mutually contradictory; just see Youtube's "3D player" for an example of the madness." |
17:35 |

also something along the lines of "it sucks anyway" |

What about running the sudo command in the same terminal? |
17:40 |
Jordach |
never run minetestserver or minetest as root |
17:40 |

why would you use sudo except to update? |

I opened terminal, and typed minetest |
17:40 |
us{0gb |
No, never run the server as root. |
17:41 |

It then ran from that terminal |
17:41 |

right. |
17:41 |
VanessaE |
just minimize the terminal then |

the [_] button in the title bar. |

or open another terminal |

you can have as many open as you want |

VanessaE: I don't see any relation between decoding MVC and outputing 3d though I'm not the one to judge what should those people do with their free time; just saying that this argument is totally invalid; moreover, hdmi 1.4a spec has 3d section which is quite clear; and the easiest way to implement it seems to support 1920×2205 resolution (it is interpreted as 2 1920×1080 frames over/under, with 45 pixel empty space between) |

Come on wine... |
18:04 |
Dan_D |
Just saying, for some reason Wine doesn't run programs as well as Windows |
18:04 |
Dan_D |
Even though people say it's better |
18:06 |
Dan_D |
How do I find my Windows files? Only D:\ appears, not C:\ |
18:06 |
us{0gb |
Wine runs some applications better and others worse. |
18:07 |
us{0gb |
No C:? THat's odd ... |
18:07 |
thexyz |
why do you need wine? |
18:07 |
Dan_D |
To run Windowsprograms |
18:08 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: windows files will show up as something like "8GB filesystem" or similar in your file manager |
18:08 |
VanessaE |
whatever the size of the partition is |
18:08 |
VanessaE |
WINE is not meant for running stuff from your windows partitions |
18:08 |
Dan_D |
Yeah, there is 139Gb partition that is D:\, but no 89Gb, which is C:\ |
18:09 |
VanessaE |
the idea is that you copy your programs from there TO the linux side and run them locally, but there's a lot WINE can't do. you will have to continue to dual-boot. |
18:09 |
VanessaE |
eventually when you've got just linux running on bare hardware, you can use a virtual machine |
18:10 |
Dan_D |
Yes, but I want wine to run Windowsprograms, I just can't find them to copy them across |
18:10 |
VanessaE |
the windows filesystem may be mounted differently i.e. maybe it's a folder under /media or so |
18:10 |
Dan_D |
Also, is there a sudo command for notepad++? |
18:10 |
VanessaE |
remember, you're running linux on top of a windows filesystem. |
18:10 |
VanessaE |
you don't need sudo to run a notepad. |
18:11 |
VanessaE |
use leafpad. |
18:11 |
Dan_D |
It was 89Gb for Kubuntu,Ubuntu, and Lubuntu |
18:11 |
thexyz |
Dan_D: no, no, what programs do you need to run? |
18:11 |
Dan_D |
And I want Notepad++, I am used to it |
18:11 |
VanessaE |
(or mousepad... it's in your menu under accessories.) |
18:11 |
thexyz |
I'm sure there are better alternatives |
18:11 |
Dan_D |
No, Notepad++ absolutely rules the Multiverses! |
18:12 |
Dan_D |
Unless there is not Linux Version |
18:12 |
VanessaE |
Dan_D: then download it from its website and install it using WINE |
18:12 |
Dan_D |
I already have it on windows |
18:12 |
Jordach |
it should run in WINE afaik |
18:12 |
VanessaE |
but you're better off using a native linux program instead |
18:12 |
thexyz |
this is really dumb |
18:12 |
Dan_D |
What is the best alternative? |
18:12 |
VanessaE |
I use gedit |
18:13 |
* Jordach |
does too, when on Mint |
18:13 |
Dan_D |
Well, wine has a Browse C:\ option. |
18:13 |
VanessaE |
geany seems popular too |
18:13 |
VanessaE |
that's C:/ on your linux partition - a fake directory for wine |
18:13 |
Jordach |
geany eats everything IIRC |
18:13 |

it does not point to the real windows. |

WHy do textures never look as good in-game as they do in GIMP? |
19:04 |
us{0gb |
My nodes look awful. |
19:04 |
VanessaE |
the game doesn't to proper scaling/antialiasing |
19:04 |
VanessaE |
I mean it's all nearest-neighbor instead of decent stuff like lanczos or even bicubic |
19:05 |
VanessaE |
so you see hard, pixelated edges on the imagery |
19:05 |
us{0gb |
Anti-aliasing ... Doesn't that have to do with causing blur? |
19:05 |
VanessaE |
not if it's done right |
19:05 |
khonkhortisan |
antialiasing in minetest causes edge bleed |
19:05 |
zat |
VanessaE: and what id they dont figure it out, what if they dont learn a few phrases, what if... -- IT IS JUST A DAMN GAME, period. |
19:05 |
PilzAdam |
I always think the opposite: textures look awful in gimp but pretty good in-game, with the high zoom factor and the tiling |
19:05 |
VanessaE |
antialiasing is supposed to just smooth the transitions between neighboring pixels |
19:05 |
Tiktalik |
if your textures look bad in-game |
19:05 |
Tiktalik |
then you need to make better textures |
19:05 |
Tiktalik |
you have to check for things like repetitiveness |
19:06 |
Tiktalik |
and figure out if you really want to be staring at that texture for a good while |
19:06 |
us{0gb |
PilzAdam, exactly my point. What looks good in GIMP looks bad in Minetest. What looks good in Minetest looks bad in GIMP. |
19:06 |
PilzAdam |
so, start drawing bad textures :-) |
19:06 |
VanessaE |
bbl, getting tired |
19:07 |
Tiktalik |
us{0gb: texturing is completely different than, say, spriting |
19:07 |
us{0gb |
I tried drawing worse. It didn't help. THare's also images that look bad in both Minetest and GIMP. |
19:07 |
us{0gb |
Tiktalik, apparently. I have no idea how to texture. |

us{0gb: a good thing to do is create an image four times bigger than the texture you're making |
19:08 |
Tiktalik |
and then tile your texture in it |
19:09 |
Tiktalik |
if you've got unpleasant visual things that stand out, like odd lines in your grass |
19:09 |
Tiktalik |
you need to remove them |
19:10 |
us{0gb |
I have done that. I am careful to make sure things line up properly. But for example, my new mapgen_junglegrass doesn't tile, and it still looks bad in-game. And things that tile properly and look good in GIMP still don't look good in-game. |

so i have to add drops '' to all the water nodes |

and lava and other liquids |
20:22 |

uhm I also was able to "dig" water and got them as drops, but when i rejoined it wasn't posible to do anymore |
20:22 |
Krock |
thaat was a bit weird but..okay |
20:22 |
Peacock |
but since when are liquids diggable? seems that's the real bug |
20:22 |
us{0gb |
How do I flip a texture backwards? I don't see the option in the API, but I've done it before. |
20:22 |
us{0gb |
In the API documentation, I mean. |
20:23 |
Peacock |
might be simpler to add a line in register_node (builtin) where it puts the '' drop for every liquid drawtype node |
20:24 |
us{0gb |
I'm using digable liquids, so it would be nice if that option wasn't removed. |
20:24 |
us{0gb |
I use buckets as tools that dig liquids. |
20:25 |
Peacock |
its an option or a bug? |
20:25 |
us{0gb |
It's an option. |
20:25 |
Peacock |
it make buckets pretty pointless if you can just dig liquids with any tool |
20:25 |
Jordach |
diggable liquids would be awesome |
20:26 |
Peacock |
weird option lol |
20:26 |
Jordach |
punch lava with fists; magically carry lava with bare hands |
20:26 |
us{0gb |
The error also happens in some other cases allowing you to dig nodes with the wrong tool. Liquids are not special that way. |
20:26 |
Peacock |
yeah because griefing isn't easy enough :P |
20:26 |
Peacock |
wonderful lol |
20:27 |
us{0gb |
Jordach, you need a bucket for that, but my buckets act like liquid-mining picks. |
20:27 |
us{0gb |
Sort of like how the axe is a cactus-mining pick. |
20:27 |
Peacock |
dunno, for me, liquids should be naturally occuring, if people want liquids they should dig canals or use those big wheel thingies to bring it up |
20:28 |
Peacock |
its pretty funny when you think of the fact that farming is pretty medieval, while anyone can dig a cubic meter of liquids with any tool |
20:28 |
us{0gb |
And if you want it that way, that's fine. Bu tdon't take away the option to allow other people to do other things by changing the node registration function to react to the drawtype. |
20:29 |
Peacock |
well its already changed in the default mod, so i'd assume no one else can dig liquids either |
20:29 |
us{0gb |
Right. So just don't change the registration function for new liquids. |
20:30 |
us{0gb |
The bug is in the nodes, not the function. |
20:30 |
Peacock |
dont worry, i gave up a long time ago trying to understand half the changes that are made :P i just override default and builtin and deal with it lol |

whats the difference between snow and snowblock? |
21:29 |
kaeza |
snow is the item, and the thin layer of snow on top of blocks |
21:29 |
kaeza |
the block is just that: a block made of snow |
21:30 |
kaeza |
compare to a steel ingot vs a steel block |
21:33 |
PilzAdam |
Peacock, /giveme default:snow and default:snowblock, place them both, compare |
21:33 |
Peacock |
thanks, trying to convert paragen to work with lvm, but im missing a few nodes |
21:36 |
FreeFull |
kaeza: Well, you can't place a layer of steel ingot onto blocks |
21:36 |
Peacock |
lol |
21:36 |
FreeFull |
I guess it'd be more like steel plate vs steel block |
21:36 |
Peacock |
i dont even get what these leveled nodeboxes are supposed to be lol |
21:36 |
kaeza |
FreeFull, but you can't craft steel blocks from steel plates :P |
21:36 |
Peacock |
seems overly complicated |
21:37 |
kaeza |
anyway, what is a steel plate? O_o |
21:37 |
FreeFull |
A hypothetical item |
21:38 |
ShadowNinja |
steel quarter-slab. |
21:39 |
PilzAdam |
Peacock, the API for all the weather / finite-liquid things are fucked up |
21:40 |
Peacock |
weather/finite liquid/leveled nodeboxes, and we still only got one colour of light and weird shadows :P |
21:40 |
Peacock |
thats life |
21:41 |
ShadowNinja |
So when are client-side mods scheduled for? |
21:41 |
Peacock |
anyways eventually i have to update my default and go over it again, i was just hoping it wouldn't be soon |
21:41 |
PilzAdam |
ShadowNinja, in the future |
21:42 |

PilzAdam |
and AFAIK he waits for libmtmap |
21:48 |
Peacock |
so many DBs, and one ring to rule them all |
21:49 |
PilzAdam |
dummy just rules all in terms of speed and code length |
21:49 |
ShadowNinja |
PilzAdam: No, sophia is far faster than LevelDB. And it shouldn't be hard to add support for it. |
21:49 |

PilzAdam: going crazy? hm? |
21:49 |
PilzAdam |
"moar dbs, moar!!!" :-p |

Does anyone else agree with me that Minetest's major-minor-patch version system is more like huge-major-minor? |

yes |

more like 0-major-minor |

Hello? |
21:59 |
ShadowNinja |
^ I feel like it is goind to take us 10 years to get to 1.0.0. |
21:59 |
ShadowNinja |
If Minetest is even actively developed in ten years. |
22:00 |
ShadowNinja |
IMO the next release is worthy of the 0.5.0 mark because of LevelDB, which has been the most wanted feature for years. |
22:01 |
ShadowNinja |
At least for server owners. |
22:02 |
|
svuorela joined #minetest |
22:03 |
Peacock |
i wouldn't call it 0.5.0 without throwing in a few major API things (at least as great as nodeboxes were to pre-nodebox mt) |
22:06 |
kahrl |
voxelmanip? |
22:06 |
ShadowNinja |
Peacock: Like node models? The idea is that we shouldn't need a dozen MAJOR features to bump the MINOR version number. |
22:06 |
PilzAdam |
ShadowNinja, no, we already have some plans for 0.5.0 |
22:06 |
ShadowNinja |
^That is pretty big, it makes Lua mapgen practical. |
22:06 |
PilzAdam |
such as BKVL |
22:06 |
kahrl |
PilzAdam, indeed |
22:07 |
Peacock |
well voxelmanip has been with us since 0.4.7, so it wouldn't really count for 0.5.0 anymore (if you wanted to do that, shoulda bumped it to 0.5.0 when it came out) |
22:07 |
ShadowNinja |
Meh, but maybe we should bump the versions a little faster, and we should certainly release faster. |
22:07 |
kahrl |
perhaps we should start working towards 0.5.0 after releasing 0.4.8 |
22:08 |
PilzAdam |
the second digit basically means incompatibilty |
22:08 |
ShadowNinja |
Peacock: No, the VM isn't in 0.4.7. |
22:08 |
Peacock |
it isn't? pretty sure my version says 0.4.7 ( a git) and it is in there |
22:08 |
ShadowNinja |
0.4.7-git does have it, but not 0.4.7-stable. |
22:09 |
ShadowNinja |
PilzAdam: Normally the first digit means that, eg python2->3. |
22:09 |
PilzAdam |
I know |
22:09 |
kahrl |
with #936 git versions will no longer show the same version number as stable ones |
22:10 |

Dan_D joined #minetest |

F5 used to show the precise version (git), dunno why that was taken out |
22:10 |
kahrl |
when was that? |
22:10 |
kahrl |
I don't remember it |
22:10 |
Peacock |
back when i ran arch so, about six months ago |
22:11 |
Peacock |
version string said minetest-git(MDY) |
22:11 |
ShadowNinja |
kahrl: BTW, a nota about that. I don't think the tag should be shown if you are not on that exact commit. eg no 0.4.7-MSVC-303 |
22:11 |
Peacock |
now it just says 0.4.7 |
22:11 |
kahrl |
PilzAdam: did you install it via arch? |
22:11 |
ShadowNinja |
note* |
22:11 |
kahrl |
Peacock: * |
22:12 |
PilzAdam |
kahrl, no, its rather unusual to install things with arch in Kubuntu ;-) |
22:12 |
kahrl |
heh |
22:12 |
Peacock |
what PA said lol |
22:13 |
Peacock |
now i compile rather than use packer |
22:14 |
kahrl |
ShadowNinja: I think it should be shown, it makes it possible to see the base stable version without having to look up the commit in git log |
22:14 |
Peacock |
dunno, for a major version, maybe something like making the mapgen into an object you can define/register more than once, in essence, being able to register realms like the default mapgen, stuff like that |
22:16 |
ShadowNinja |
MGv7 Lua-definable biomes? |
22:17 |
Peacock |
lua definable biomes yeah, that would be cool |
22:17 |
Peacock |
but being able to use the mapgen itself to define realms, that would be cool too |
22:18 |
Peacock |
(youd need params to define the ystart and yend tho |
22:18 |
* Jordach |
slowly feels worse |
22:18 |
kahrl |
oh by the way the arch daily on http://minetest.net/download is broken |
22:18 |
kahrl |
the link, I mean |
22:18 |

the ability to configure different skies for different realms, would add more to otherworldly realms |

though paramats' paragen 0.2.0 has a shitton more biomes than the default mapgen, so i lvm'ed that |

how is the mapgen going! |
23:28 |
paramat |
hi Exio4 ... it's epic |
23:28 |
Peacock |
i had changed ymin and ymax without adjusting the other height levels (like waty and sandy) |
23:29 |
Peacock |
so the pastebin i sent you should actually work fine :P |
23:30 |
paramat |
ah excellent |
23:31 |
paramat |
hm i could make the parameters all relative to ymin to avoid that mistake |
23:31 |
Peacock |
well at least it was my mistake :P i changed the height in case i wanted to add more realms in the future, and set it to 25-27K |
23:32 |
paramat |
generation time per chunk? |
23:32 |
Peacock |
faster than the mainstream 0.2.0, but still a bit slow |
23:33 |
Peacock |
i just watch the terminal output and notice it print paragen 1..2...3 much faster |
23:35 |
Exio4 |
you should use the fast-mass perlin noise functions |
23:35 |
Exio4 |
and cache the node ids outside the on_mapgen |
23:35 |
Peacock |
one thing i noticed in moonrealm lvm, you get the content id's within ongen, which means theyre called everytime ongen is called right? what if it were defined outside ongen, then it would be only once? |
23:36 |
Peacock |
there, exio just said it lol coulda saved me the trouble :P |
23:36 |
Exio4 |
yes, it would work, and would be pretty nice to do it, and if you use luajit it would be amazingly fast |
23:37 |
Exio4 |
using number indexs could make it be pretty fast too |
23:37 |

i do use luajit, so some timesaving would still be good |

yeah i will need to learn to use the new perlin stuff |
23:40 |

oh um line 492 in the pastebin |
23:40 |

ideally maybe just have a single YLEVEL variable, and derive ymin,ymax,waty, sandy from that |
23:41 |
Peacock |
under: if env:get_node({x=x,y=CLOUDY,z=z}).name == "air" then ? |
23:41 |

yes, everything relative to the average surface level, good idea |
