00:04 VanessaE you know, it just occurred to me what those three spikes in activity might have been this morning:  people waking up!
00:04 VanessaE time zones
00:04 VanessaE people wake up, flood minetest for a bit looking for minecraft alts, then that dies off as people go to school/work
00:05 VanessaE then the next flood an hour later
00:05 VanessaE and a third one and then that does it for the US
00:05 VanessaE then the afternoon flood as the UK'ers sign on
00:07 H-H-H VanessaE i went on one of your servers for the first time today and some idot built a bix around me so i couldnt move lol
00:07 H-H-H box even
00:07 VanessaE heh
00:08 VanessaE which server?
00:08 H-H-H i forgot now it was a few hrs ago :)
00:08 VanessaE free-for-all?  vanilla?  survival?
00:08 Cylus joined #minetest
00:09 jray541 joined #minetest
00:09 H-H-H i think it was survival
00:09 VanessaE ok
00:09 Cylus joined #minetest
00:10 jray541 why is it that no matter what mod i try to load on my dedicated server it always gives me a error that it can't find a init.lua file?
00:10 proller joined #minetest
00:10 VanessaE jray541: that means you probably named the mod's containing directory wrong
00:10 VanessaE it's an easy mistake, one that a lot of people make
00:12 H-H-H btw nice homedecor mod :) i use it on my lan server
00:12 khonkhortisan joined #minetest
00:13 VanessaE thanks :D
00:13 H-H-H all i need now is a fishing mod and i will be happy the onbe i have doesnt run :(
00:13 VanessaE there is such a mod I think, actually
00:14 VanessaE oh, you already said that
00:14 VanessaE derp
00:14 VanessaE note to self: read the whole sentence.
00:14 H-H-H yes there is but it barfs with a nill error lol
00:14 VanessaE what error?
00:14 H-H-H attempt to index global 'default' (a nil value)
00:15 VanessaE that's easy to fix.
00:15 VanessaE install minetest_game :)
00:15 VanessaE well maybe it's more than that ;P
00:15 H-H-H this is on my test system where minetest_game is run lol
00:15 VanessaE can you gimme a link to where you downloaded the failed mod from?
00:16 jray541 VanessaE: where are they supposed to be? mods folder?
00:16 H-H-H yeah sure hold on
00:16 VanessaE jray541: correct.  but the name of the mod itself matters too.
00:16 H-H-H https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=62751
00:16 VanessaE jray541: for example, if a mod says "SomeonesName-foomod-master" then you need to rename it to "foomod"
00:17 jray541 VanessaE: i did that
00:18 jray541 VanessaE: it can't find something that exists. permissions maybe?
00:18 VanessaE H-H-H: I think I see the error already
00:19 VanessaE jray541: can you pastebin the exact error messages please?
00:19 H-H-H nice :)
00:20 VanessaE H-H-H: ok as I thought.  in that fishing mod's folder, create a new file.   depends.txt
00:20 VanessaE H-H-H: inside this file put the word,  default
00:20 VanessaE save the file and try again
00:21 VanessaE H-H-H: put that depends.txt right there in the same folder as init.lua
00:21 jray541 VanessaE: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8368546/
00:21 VanessaE jray541: rename that mod to "mobs"
00:21 VanessaE not "simplemobs"
00:21 VanessaE jray541: also, your paste got cut off at the right margin.
00:22 H-H-H worked thanks :)
00:22 VanessaE H-H-H: cheers :)
00:22 H-H-H hovercrafts and helicopters are fun to lol
00:23 est31 joined #minetest
00:26 jray541 VanessaE: ok here you go http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8368558/
00:26 jray541 VanessaE: i renamed mobs
00:26 VanessaE ok next.
00:26 VanessaE get rid of all mesecons components.
00:27 VanessaE instead, re-install mesecons as a self-contained modpack
00:27 VanessaE treat it as one big giant mod
00:27 jray541 ok
00:27 VanessaE it's already designed to be used that way anyhow
00:28 VanessaE that's why that microcontroller calls for "effector"
00:28 VanessaE this is a function supplied by another module in the mesecons modpack :)
00:28 jray541 so how would i go about that?
00:28 VanessaE just rip out everything related to mesecons
00:28 VanessaE delete it all
00:29 VanessaE then download this file:  https://github.com/Jeija/minetest-mod-mesecons/archive/master.zip
00:29 VanessaE when it comes in, unzip it.
00:29 VanessaE it should produce a folder named minetest-mod-mesecons.  this is a modpack, so it doesn't matter what the foldername is.
00:30 VanessaE copy that to your mods folder.  then start the client and go to your world configure menu like you did with the other mods.  CLick the TOP item of the modpack only and click "Enable MP" at the top of the list.

00:32 TriBlade9 joined #minetest
00:34 est31 its funny, I never have played minecraft, and I've played MT before, but now I returned because I read of MC in the news.
00:34 H-H-H the travelnets are fun to lol
00:34 roboman2444 joined #minetest
00:36 VanessaE est31: heh
00:40 kaeza joined #minetest
00:44 diemartin joined #minetest
00:45 jray541 VanessaE: wait, world configure menu?
00:46 VanessaE jray541: in Single Player mode when you select a world, you can click "Configure" at the bottom.
00:46 VanessaE that's how you enable mods
00:48 jray541 VanessaE: but on my vps?
00:49 VanessaE jray541: oh derp :)
00:49 VanessaE what I do on my remote server is use the worldmods folder
00:50 VanessaE minetest/worlds/Name_of_your_world/worldmods/minetest-mod-mesecons
00:50 grendal_prime ok sorry i had to bail a bit ago...motorsport shop called and i had to pick up my bike.
00:50 VanessaE if you just drop a mod or modpack into the "worldmods" folder (create it if it doesn't exist) the server will automatically start trying to use it at the next restyart
00:50 VanessaE restart*
00:51 VanessaE wb, grendal_prime
00:51 grendal_prime so ok basically i install some low resource intensive desktop like lxde or xfce and put the client on there then have them rdp into it and set up a world for the kids to play on.
00:51 VanessaE jray541: so all that stuff you do in world.mt is one way to turn them on.  putting them in worldmods is another, easier way
00:51 VanessaE grendal_prime: scroll up
00:51 VanessaE there's a better way
00:51 grendal_prime see what the want is control over the resources.. they want to use this for like a civil planning type exercise.
00:53 grendal_prime ya i understand that that all the clients can act as a server..but in this scenario they want to limit what resources they students have ...also they want to pause time so because this only happens onece a week.
00:54 grendal_prime this brings the next question though.  is there a way to fine tune what resources are available...like say we only wanted 1/3 of the map to be wooded?
00:55 VanessaE yes, you can tune these things, but I have never done it so I don't know how, myself
00:55 VanessaE at least not in the default mapgen
00:55 paramat left #minetest
00:55 VanessaE (I wrote plants_lib, which does these kinds of things, but it's not used in anything default)
00:55 VanessaE ^^^^^^^ he would know
00:55 VanessaE but he signed off :P
00:55 VanessaE paramat, you chicken!  get back here!
00:55 VanessaE :)

00:57 VanessaE heh
00:57 VanessaE paramat is the map gen god here.
00:57 VanessaE no one knows Lua mapgens better than him.
01:00 Hobodium joined #minetest
01:02 proller very slow lua mapgens ;)
01:02 VanessaE /kick proller
01:03 proller again bad truth ?
01:03 jray541 VanessaE: new pastebin http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8368705/ i cp all mods into worldmods so they are still sitting there too
01:04 VanessaE textures  ?
01:04 VanessaE what did you get that from?
01:05 VanessaE delete that.
01:05 jray541 VanessaE: oh i think that made its way out there when i messed up a copy
01:05 grendal_prime to give you an idea how much fun this is going to be. My son is building this server.  Its a rackable 1U industrial pc with 2 core duos it and 4 gigs of ram. we need a minetest logo sticker to put across the front of it to make it look like a mintes appliance.
01:05 jray541 earlier
01:05 VanessaE yeah you'll need to nuke that
01:06 VanessaE grendal_prime: I like :)
01:06 grendal_prime we are going to well this thing in and set it on the table and lights will shine down from heaven.
01:06 grendal_prime ahhhhhhhh aaaahhhhhh ahhhhhhhh
01:07 VanessaE lol
01:07 VanessaE rofl
01:07 jray541 VanessaE: pngs for moretrees lol mv back into their home
01:07 VanessaE oops!
01:07 proller joined #minetest
01:07 VanessaE skrewed up :D
01:07 VanessaE ok move that back where it goes
01:07 grendal_prime I may pipe in some Gregorian chanting in from the car
01:07 VanessaE and then try again :)
01:08 VanessaE grendal_prime: why do I get the feeling you're a Gabriel Iglesias fan? :P
01:08 grendal_prime also we are going to download the windows binarys and have them sitting on the apache server so they can http download them and install.
01:08 grendal_prime so what all should i throw on there, these will be all win7 clients im sure.
01:09 grendal_prime wham BAMN THEM KIDZ IZ PLAYEN.
01:13 VanessaE Windows clients and Dreambuilder Game ;)
01:13 VanessaE Carbone would be good too
01:13 VanessaE really though, get lots of mods
01:13 VanessaE your players will want lots of variety
01:15 jray541 VanessaE: new pastebin http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/8368745/ am i just naming the mods wrong?
01:15 VanessaE jray541: yep.
01:15 VanessaE that one should be pipeworks.
01:15 VanessaE make sure you have the VERY latest of that
01:15 VanessaE it's updated frequently
01:16 VanessaE btw we're talking in the development channel about a way to resolve this problem cleanly
01:16 VanessaE so that these naming issues cease to get in the way in the future

01:19 kaeza_ /ctcp kaeza_ VERSION
01:19 kaeza_ :P
01:19 * VanessaE hands kaeza_ a 10 kg sledge to kill the modem with.
01:19 VanessaE yay!
01:20 kaeza runs slow as hell under VBox
01:20 VanessaE but at least it RUNS :)
01:21 kaeza but oh well, I can't install directly unless they can guarantee me my modem will be able to connect
01:21 VanessaE what sort of modem?
01:21 kaeza_ lies, you are lazy
01:21 VanessaE hah
01:22 VanessaE I mean, it's ethernet right?
01:22 kaeza Huawei something USB wireless dongle
01:22 VanessaE then boot up a liveCD and see if you can connect.
01:22 kaeza it used to connect my (older) huawei under the (older) Lucid Puppy
01:23 VanessaE give a current ubuntu live image a try and see what it doed
01:23 VanessaE does*
01:23 VanessaE worst case you lose an hour or so to download/write the image
01:23 kaeza neither K- nor plain Ubuntu worked
01:23 VanessaE huh.
01:23 VanessaE try xubuntu then
01:24 VanessaE XFCE Is Your Friendâ„¢
01:24 kaeza maybe later; I have a 5GB/mo, remember? :P
01:24 VanessaE I thought you were gonna switch away from those guys? :-/
01:24 Vazon joined #minetest
01:25 jray541 LXDE lubuntu rocks
01:25 kaeza I am... SOON(tm)
01:25 VanessaE Soon.  heh
01:26 kaeza it's actually a diff company. the other one charged 500 $UY for 4GB, these charge 100 $UY for 5GB
01:26 VanessaE well that's better anyway
01:26 VanessaE but damn.
01:26 VanessaE 5GB cap, I'd blow through that in a few days :P

01:31 grendal_prime hon hon hon (thats my dirty frenchmen impersonation) I just realized something very cool hahaha
01:32 cmhobbs joined #minetest
01:32 grendal_prime this box has vne extentions. Im pretty sure i can run virtualization on the hardware level. dude...
01:33 jray541 VanessaE: does it usually take a while to load mods the first time?
01:38 VanessaE jray541: yes if you have a lot of the,m
01:39 VanessaE them*
01:39 VanessaE also make sure you turn off preload item visuals if it's on
01:39 VanessaE (Settings tab)
01:39 VanessaE otherwise it'll take an extra long time for no good reason
01:41 VanessaE jray541: the game behaves as if it's a client and server (you probably saw something about "creating server" when you started the world) so it transfers the media from the mods' folders to a central "cache" folder, just as it would were you connecting to a remote server.
01:41 VanessaE (only it's faster, obviously)
01:43 proller joined #minetest
01:45 Brains VanessaE: I thought I heard that preload was broken.  Is it broken and slow or broken in a way that makes it slow or should I stop listening to the voices in my head...
01:45 grendal_prime werid...what is minetestc55?
01:46 grendal_prime thats the version that is offered by the ppa i added.
01:46 grendal_prime nevermind thats 4.10 probably the one i want to use i would suppose
01:46 grendal_prime the other version of it is 4.9
01:47 VanessaE Brains: it's just that it glitches for some folks, and it doesn't really serve a useful purpose anymore.
01:47 VanessaE better to turn it off.
01:47 Brains grendal_prime: c55 is a (the?) minetest dev
01:56 grendal_prime oh should i use 4.9?
01:57 grendal_prime werid i cant run minecraft with xrdp but i can vnc into it and run it.
01:57 grendal_prime also some error on creating world
01:57 Brains 4.10 is the current version IIRC.  It is certainly the one I'm using...
01:58 grendal_prime nevermind i got the world name issue worked out i had to sellect minetest
02:01 grendal_prime its up its working.  the xrdp thing is bothersome.
02:02 grendal_prime vnc on this machine is horrible. screen res is to high i think
02:02 grendal_prime is there anyway to start it without actually being in the game..like host it as an observer?
02:06 jray541 VanessaE: nice it all works
02:06 jray541 thank you much
02:07 TriBlade9 Working on player movement tweaks ATM
02:18 AnotherBrick joined #minetest
02:22 Aika joined #minetest
02:22 Aika Is something wrong with public server list?
02:23 TriBlade9 I belive so Aika
02:23 TriBlade9 It's not working for me either
02:23 ShadowNinja Aika: Yep, it's having some issues.
02:23 Aika It just shows vanessae's and like 1 others
02:23 TriBlade9 Anyone want to test my movement tweaks?
02:23 ImQ009 joined #minetest
02:24 Aika and liberty land itself is laggy, can the public server list make an actual server lag??
02:24 ShadowNinja Aika: Nope.
02:24 Aika Hmm. But it seems so coincidental. haha
02:24 ShadowNinja Well, let me check...
02:24 Aika I think foreign governments are trying to take down minetest
02:25 TriBlade9 :O
02:25 Aika Someone better get it fixed though, all that revenue is lost every minute! haha
02:26 ShadowNinja Aika: It's done asynchronously, can't cause lag.
02:26 Aika k
02:26 TriBlade9 Trying to fix water sinking ATM
02:27 Aika How much of an overlap in people-types is there between minetest and anime-watchers, you think? lol
02:27 Aika Just a random question.
02:27 TriBlade9 what do you mean Aika?
02:27 Aika I'm 27, and just found out one of the most comforting and inspiration shows I've watched for two years is ending next episode, and I'm having a meltdown. lol
02:28 _Bligh joined #minetest
02:28 TriBlade9 What show?
02:28 ShadowNinja Aika: IDK, probably just about impossible to know.
02:28 Aika Also, i feel like nerdy types tend to also be more anime friendly, and therefore I thought it'd be fun to see who acknowledges they watch it too lol
02:28 Aika Hunter X Hunter
02:29 TriBlade9 I watch almost no TV shows x]
02:29 TriBlade9 Sherlock, Elementary, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Futurama. That was the entire list of TV shows I've watched
02:29 Aika It'll started when I was about 20, and i ran out of decent shows on hulu ( there weren't many, still aren't), and eventually clicked on one of the more popular animes (they had TONS, people hated that), and I've never stopped having at least 1 regular every week since lol
02:30 Aika I love sherlock, shield and futurama
02:30 TriBlade9 Elementary is Meh compared to Sherlock
02:30 TriBlade9 But it's something
02:31 Aika Can you inform me about this past season? IS it done? How many episodes? are they they same basically?
02:31 TriBlade9 They're mostly the same, except for the ones involving Moriarty/Adler. And yes, I think it's done.
02:31 TriBlade9 Oh, and the last few episodes involving Mycroft are quite different
02:32 TriBlade9 But yeah, a lot of the episodes are just him solving ANOTHER murder >_>
02:32 Aika I totally forgot I haven't seen it. I literally might go watch them right now. I love that show.
02:32 Aika HE's so bad ass, I could watch it a thousand times haha
02:32 TriBlade9 Wait
02:32 TriBlade9 Sherlock or Elementary?
02:32 Aika sherlock
02:32 TriBlade9 The above described Elementary, not Sherlock
02:32 Aika oh
02:32 TriBlade9 Sherlock is awesome
02:32 Aika sad
02:32 Aika haha
02:32 TriBlade9 Elementary has better theme music though xP
02:32 Aika Yeah, hes like a super hero in sherlock
02:33 Brains We are getting a third season of Sherlock at some point, aren't we?
02:33 TriBlade9 Yep
02:33 TriBlade9 2016
02:33 Aika Thats what i was asking about
02:33 TriBlade9 :(
02:33 Aika 2016!!!! :(
02:33 TriBlade9 Or late 2015
02:33 Aika Anyone watch Sword Art Online? Attack on Titan?
02:33 Aika lol
02:34 TriBlade9 And season 4 is coming in 2015/16, Season 3 is done
02:34 TriBlade9 I don't watch anime :P
02:34 TriBlade9 Guys, what things do you think need to be fixed with player movement?
02:34 Aika Haha, anime is super massed produced and most follow set patterns, but there's consistently like a top 5% that basically every adult I know would love
02:35 TriBlade9 Ooooh, Minetest_game is at 333 commits :D
02:36 Aika That seems low, to me, as just a casual linux user with no coding skills. Thats like every commit ever made?
02:36 TriBlade9 No, just since the repo split
02:37 TriBlade9 Anyways, I'd like someone to tell me what they think needs to be fixed with player movement, so I can see if there's anything else before I PR my branch
02:38 Aika I would comment but I haven't observed other players that much, I just started playing 3 weeks ago on a regular basis and have only played alone mostly so far
02:40 Aika So far, since I've played, I think my personal wishlist would be improving that chat, mobs, and sounds. I wish I had actual skills to do things.
02:40 TriBlade9 Playing alone is fine
02:40 TriBlade9 I'm just talking about how the players move, like jumping and stepping
02:40 TriBlade9 I've made jumping more reliable and responsive, and sinking faster
02:41 TriBlade9 I'm wondering what else could be useful (other than gradual velocity, I don't have time to do that)
02:41 Aika I always think jumping up and putting a block under myself is kind of messy
02:41 TriBlade9 Fixed :D
02:41 Aika Nice! It seems like I had to wait to jump up and fall down some before I clicked. I couldn't tell if it was my slow computer though.
02:41 TriBlade9 'cept sometimes you still place two blocks on a jump, but it was like that before my patches too
02:42 Aika When people fix things like you just did, what technical skills are you using?
02:42 TriBlade9 C++
02:42 TriBlade9 But really, I've only changed a few numbers
02:43 TriBlade9 Do you know how to compile the game?
02:43 Aika Is it normal for games to be in C++? Aren't facebook and heavy websites in C++?
02:43 Aika Yeah I do
02:43 TriBlade9 C++ is mainly for heavy desktop applications
02:43 TriBlade9 And usually powers the servers behind websites
02:44 TriBlade9 But it's a relatively low-level language
02:44 TriBlade9 Much harder to learn than even Java (IMO)
02:44 jordan4ibanez I can't wait until people are scared by me saying "boo" "happy halloween" and "merry christmas" in reverse
02:44 TriBlade9 I'm quite bad at c++, and my job is to debug industrial systems
02:44 TriBlade9 samtsirhc yrrem!
02:45 Aika jordan4ibanez: haha wahattttt
02:45 Brains Heh, Java annoys the heck out of me but C++ never really bothered me.
02:45 Aika Ohhh. Interesting. I feel like I mainly hear about python, C, js, ruby, java, lamp-stuff.
02:45 TriBlade9 C++ has too many operators to remember
02:45 jordan4ibanez Hang on I'll upload the sounds to the github
02:45 TriBlade9 Such as ->, >>, <<
02:45 Brains Bah
02:45 Aika Whats lua used for with minetest? I hear about that regarding mt
02:45 TriBlade9 jordan4ibanez, mind testing my player movement branch before I PR it?
02:45 TriBlade9 Mods
02:46 VanessaE Aika: it's the modding and game language
02:46 VanessaE it's what provides all of the content you see in-game
02:46 TriBlade9 https://github.com/TriBlade9/minetest/tree/player_movement
02:46 Aika Like how items and such are made?
02:46 TriBlade9 Precisely Aika
02:46 * Brains will have to see about playing around with the code once he gets his machine back to normal.  Love/hate reinstalls...

02:49 jordan4ibanez goodnight people!
02:49 TriBlade9 night
02:51 Aika I would look at it, but I bet the old laptop I'm stuck with now would take 8 hours to compile it.
02:52 TriBlade9 Likely

03:02 blaise hrmm
03:02 TriBlade9 hrmmmm
03:02 blaise I wonder if it would be possible to make a portableapps minetest install
03:06 blaise I bet it would increase popularity a good bit
03:09 VanessaE blaise: what would this do?
03:10 grendal_prime ya and vnc chocks on this thig
03:10 grendal_prime grrr
03:11 TriBlade9 Just wondering, is bouncy_jump what happens when you hold down the spacebar?
03:12 TriBlade9 Or is that something totally different?
03:12 blaise VanessaE: portableapps.com has this thing you can install on a flash drive.. little launcher type menu that's pretty customizable.. with minetest on there people could just plug in anywhere and play.. and the launcher will automaticly update apps as needed
03:12 VanessaE blaise: ahh
03:12 VanessaE could be useful
03:14 grendal_prime ok so say i make a world, how do i upload it..just ssh it up to the server and put it into.grr...
03:14 grendal_prime i got another idea
03:15 blaise VanessaE: I was just thinking the same thing.. :D
03:15 blaise I keep a few portableapps flash drives handy because of the handy tools..
03:15 blaise and then to have minetest on there..
03:16 blaise being on a usb3 flashdrive is pretty snappy.. XD
03:18 blaise there's lots of cool games on there anyway
03:18 blaise I like the xpenguins

03:28 TriBlade9 Working on player_movement right now
03:28 TriBlade9 It makes jumping and falling more responsive, and as a side effect, makes placing blocks under you while jumping easier and less likely to place 2 at a time

07:24 kaeza no, but you can easily compare positions from an on_globalstep() callback
07:24 TriBlade9 IK, but that's quite slow
07:26 TBC_x god damn EU bullshit
07:26 Xlaits joined #minetest
07:26 kaeza calling Lua every time a player moves would be equally slow; with on_globalstep, you can check the pos every x seconds (x may be 0 < x <= 1)
07:26 TBC_x i hate those "cookie warning" things
07:27 Lunatrius joined #minetest
07:27 TriBlade9 Also, you can't get pointed thing from player can you?

07:48 rubenwardy TBC_x what do you mean? In games/?
07:48 rubenwardy Have they started adding more games to games/?
07:48 TBC_x yes, I thought that 4.10 is supposed to have more games
07:48 TBC_x included
07:49 TBC_x at least, I read that on forums
07:50 rubenwardy I didn't think that actually happened. Some unofficial builds contain other games. I am not sure, I don't download Minetest from minetest.net. I build it myself.

08:07 Megaf RealBadAngel: Dont highlight air nodes, heh, is not a bug, it's a feature!
08:07 rubenwardy How did that even happen
08:07 rubenwardy ?
08:08 kaeza TIL MOBF supports intllib
08:08 kaeza :D
08:08 Megaf air nodes are nodes too, quite easy to get them to highlight rubenwardy
08:09 RealBadAngel Megaf, its a bug
08:09 Megaf Im just joking RealBadAngel
08:09 RealBadAngel but in the first place bigger bug is that air nodes do have selection boxes
08:10 RealBadAngel and that also has to be fixed

08:11 Megaf RealBadAngel: isnt there a way to replace air nodes by nothing?
08:11 RealBadAngel air is nothing?
08:11 rubenwardy Megaf: like 'ignore'?
08:12 RealBadAngel afaik paramat was replacing all air nodes with vaccum
08:12 Megaf I mean, since air nodes are nodes, they have to be stored and loaded
08:12 Megaf If theres no air nodes, then theres nothing to be loaded and stored
08:12 RealBadAngel Megaf, nothing is also a data
08:13 RealBadAngel it doesnt pop out of a magician hat
08:13 Megaf Ok
08:13 Megaf I think I'm not quite right this time
08:14 kaeza how did it work with regular highlighting?
08:16 RealBadAngel theres a check for it
08:16 RealBadAngel in my code it was a matter of refreshing that
08:17 RealBadAngel before enigine did refresh pointed_thing mesh was updated first
08:17 RealBadAngel with air in place of previously pointed node
08:18 RealBadAngel so you were able to see for a short blink highlighted air

10:20 Jonuz Btw, doesnt microsoft care about minetest or why they allow you to make clone from their game?

10:23 Jonuz TBC_x: I dont really think that ms does care about that

10:23 jin_xi someone raised the point that one could argue minetest is similar in both name and nature
10:23 Jonuz And they don't have to, even idea of name is copied from minecrafrt
10:23 Jonuz minecraft*
10:23 RealBadAngel jin_xi, with rendering to textures youre losing quality a lot
10:24 jin_xi but then minecraft is hardly an original name
10:24 Jonuz john_minetest: that would be nice :-D
10:24 jin_xi RealBadAngel: set texture to 64px, could easily do more and make it a nodedef option
10:24 Jonuz I mean about FAQ
10:24 jin_xi but get a lot of alias with higher values and this particular shader
10:24 TBC_x and what about warcraft?
10:25 TBC_x shouldn't MS sue blizzard for name similarity?
10:25 jin_xi anyway, i still would like to figure out a way to use the more dynamic approach of before, so animated and reactive shaders are possible
10:25 Jonuz blizzard have resources to fight back
10:26 jin_xi minetest is a name that evokes some questions anyway... lots of people don't really like it

14:39 MinetestBot Krock: 09-17 21:48 UTC <kaeza> can you make it so your site accepts things like "modSearch.php?q=foo|bar"?
14:41 bjrohan VanessaE: hi there, could use some more help / info if you are up for it. I left off with issues with the animal modpack yesterday, so I disabled it today. However in the game I am receiving error messages from that mod: mobf lifebar not defined, animal_zombie not defined.
14:41 bjrohan VanessaE: if I enter /mobf, it replies invalid command
14:42 Krock !tell kaeza like searching for two things at once?
14:42 MinetestBot Krock: yeah, sure, whatever
14:42 rubenwardy If you disable a mod then stuff may be left behind. The objects which use to be used as mods are now ghosts. the game doesn't know what to do with them
14:42 rubenwardy Wow, MinetestBot has turned into a teenager
14:43 sfan5_ uh
14:43 sfan5_ what?
14:43 rubenwardy Next she'll saying "whatever, get of my back, god!"

14:43 Amaz rubenwardy: Don't give her any ideas!
14:44 sfan5 shadowzone: meow
14:44 * shadowzone tosses sfan5 a ball of yarn
14:45 bjrohan sfan5_: hi there, I am having some issues with the animal modpack mod, 2 days ago it was working, then yesterday out of the blue, it stopped working, when enabled in the world config the game wouldn't start. I have diasabled the mod in config, and now during gameplay it says that things like: mobf lifebar not defined & animal_zombie not defined
14:45 sfan5_ bjrohan: I'd suggest you ask sapier about that when he comes online
14:45 bjrohan sfan5: odd to me since I had disabled that mod, and those items are in that mod only
14:45 bjrohan sfan5_: thanks
14:45 T4im bjrohan: maybe check if all dependencies of that mod are enabled as well
14:47 Amaz left #minetest
14:47 T4im (to possibly resolve the not starting)
14:48 rubenwardy If you disable a mod then stuff may be left behind. The objects which use to be used as mods are now ghosts. the game doesn't know what to do with them
14:48 rubenwardy the animal mod pack comes with a cleaner that removes these
14:49 shadowzone Maybe try and run a /clearobjects
14:49 rubenwardy That too, but it is slower than the mobf function
14:49 rubenwardy s/mobf/animal modpack
14:49 bjrohan T4im: I think that I have disabled that mod, by going into the Configure in the main menu, and double clicking on the mod to turn it all white vs green, that is what I think the issue it, it should be disabled, but in the game throwing errors
14:50 bjrohan ahh
14:50 bjrohan shadowzone: I am running the clearonjects now, says it may take a while
14:50 shadowzone Okay.
14:51 Jonuz How cheating is prevented on OS games?
14:52 rubenwardy Huh?
14:52 rubenwardy OH
14:52 rubenwardy Everything is controlled server side.
14:52 rubenwardy This means you can't build where you aren't supposed to, you can't give yourself blocks
14:53 realtinymonster joined #minetest
14:53 rubenwardy Jonuz: closing the source is a really bad way to protect against cheating
14:53 realtinymonster exactly
14:53 Krock Jonuz, I don't know any non-OS games.
14:53 shadowzone Okay I am making a little mod for my game and the nodes I made for it are unknown blocks.
14:53 LemonLake joined #minetest
14:53 Jonuz Okay, good :p
14:53 rubenwardy You can, however, give yourself fly.
14:53 speak joined #minetest
14:54 rubenwardy Motion is controlled client side
14:54 realtinymonster ^ bad idea, but whatever
14:54 Krock wut=
14:54 Jonuz Hmm I guess it is easy to detect in server side..?
14:54 Krock realtinymonster, would it be better on server side??
14:54 realtinymonster hmm
14:54 rubenwardy Yeah. If a player is hovering in the air away from blocks then they are probably flying. or lagging
14:55 bjrohan shadowzone: it appears the clear onjects worked like a charm, thank you
14:55 shadowzone Your welcome.
14:55 drworman joined #minetest
14:55 shadowzone http://paste.ubuntu.com/8372832/
14:55 rubenwardy But detecting is unreliable. It is much better to have moderators to see people flying
14:55 Jonuz It is but not always possible
14:56 rubenwardy I personally use a client which ignores the fast privilege it is given. Ie: I always have fast.
14:56 T4im open source fps usually do serverside physics.. but minetest is not a fps ;)
14:56 hoodedice Someone needs help with the android build https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&amp;t=10145
14:56 Jonuz But I guess it isnt that hard to detect if player goes to spot (air) where he cant go
14:56 T4im well serverside physics and client side physic prediction to not make it too obvious :D
14:56 rubenwardy Jonuz: what about falling or lagging?
14:57 Jonuz well thats true
14:57 T4im or jumping.. you would be suprised how far you can get up via fast_move after reaching the end of a ladder
14:58 Jonuz Well server could save last x blocks and check were client in upper :-D
14:58 Jonuz Well I guess it would be best if server logs/notices if player might be using some hack to fly
14:58 LemonLake That user count just goes up and up.
14:59 T4im well.. as said.. minetest is not a fps per se.. so the damage by a player that flied for a few seconds when noone watched is minor compared to other games :)
15:00 T4im i'd be more concerned about wallhack equivalents.. ore-radars or something like that.. and you simply cant prevent that sort of thing without some complicated heuristics
15:00 rubenwardy It is more fun to build w/o fly. It requires more planning.
15:01 jin_xi joined #minetest
15:02 rubenwardy Ore finders would only work for in the immediate area around a player. Also, a player could create a stand alone program on their computer and use the server's seed to build a large map. They could then scan a massive area for nyan cats etc. (Are nyan cats seeded or random?)
15:02 T4im well.. damage to the server/other players.. if a player really wants to make it boring to himself, who am i to stop him? ;)
15:02 T4im nyan cats are random
15:02 rubenwardy damn. Well, you could find gold
15:02 T4im already checked for that exact case 2 days ago :p
15:03 T4im yea.. i can think of heuristics spotting that..  someone using that might have a "too good" ore finding ratio
15:04 T4im but nah.. not worth it :P

15:19 LemonLake No.
15:19 Jonuz :<
15:19 LemonLake Why?
15:19 DMackey joined #minetest
15:19 LemonLake Fixed it
15:20 Jonuz This mean that someone will have to learn new language if they want to make addons
15:20 LemonLake Lua is very quick to learn.
15:20 LemonLake !pil Jonuz
15:20 MinetestBot Jonuz, Someone thinks you need to brush up on or learn Lua, please go to: http://lua.org/pil/
15:21 rubenwardy I learnt Lua in an hour, pretty much
15:21 LemonLake It's especially quicker if you have prior programming knowledge.
15:22 LemonLake Lua is useful as it's a scripting language, making it easier to learn and more extensible in some cases.
15:22 Jonuz oh, but still it can be turnoff to someone :D
15:22 rubenwardy lua tables beginning with 1 still throws me occasionally
15:22 Jonuz Personally I don't really care
15:22 LemonLake It's also generally lightweight and does not need to be compiled.
15:22 LemonLake Jonuz: And? That's their problem.
15:23 LemonLake That's like saying 'Oh, (fast food chain here), your food may not be good to this ONE person. You should stop selling it.#
15:23 LemonLake Dumb, right?
15:23 RumiaGloop joined #minetest
15:23 TBC_x lol, I should write that down
15:23 DusXMT rubenwardy: FORTRAN's arrays also began at one, so it's not a Lua inovation ;)
15:23 LemonLake rubenwardy: I do agree with you, but oh well.
15:23 Jonuz Im saying that you should also sell other foods :3
15:24 TBC_x FORTH ftw
15:24 LemonLake Jonuz: Personally, and I'm sure others will agree, that is quite unnecessary.
15:24 Jonuz Okay then :<
15:24 LemonLake Just learn Lua. It takes less than an hour if you have C++ knowledge.
15:25 LemonLake If it's a turnoff to someone, and they're extremely scared to learn lua, they can play another game. Simple.
15:25 LemonLake Also applicable to the fast food example.
15:25 RealBadAngel TBC_x, actually lua can load libraries
15:25 LemonLake ^
15:25 DusXMT Jonuz: Kinda curious, how would you imagine an alternative to Lua in the game?
15:26 RealBadAngel forth computer works with precompiled c++ libs
15:26 iqualfragile rubenwardy: i put creating the setup instructions on your task list, as you did that recently
15:26 rubenwardy I didn't record anything I did.
15:27 rubenwardy I'll try again, though
15:27 iqualfragile LemonLake: luas listst start with one?
15:27 iqualfragile u sure?
15:27 LemonLake iqualfragile: They do.
15:27 iqualfragile luas list start with whatever you want
15:27 iqualfragile there are no lists
15:27 iqualfragile there are just hashmaps/dicts
15:27 LemonLake iqualfragile: http://lua-users.org/wiki/CountingFromOne
15:27 RealBadAngel indexes starts from 1
15:27 LemonLake Oh stop being super technical.
15:27 RealBadAngel theres no element 0 like in c++
15:29 TBC_x counting from 1 is weird, everyone has 9 fingers, right?

15:35 TBC_x yeah, we should tell the Pope about it, is he the one that manages the bug list?
15:36 TBC_x I don't think they're good enough to understand bug trackers
15:37 DusXMT I kinda don't get this 9 finger thing. In C, when you're defining an array, you give it the total number of elements (like:  finger *hand[10]; ) and access them from 0 to 9. My point is: You still specify the total count
15:37 DusXMT well, in that given example from 0 to 9
15:38 PenguinDad TBC_x: He manages the bug tracker but maggie's way :P http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/The-Worst-Bug-Tracking-Software.aspx

16:09 rubenwardy Are the mods manually added, or added by a bot?
16:09 _3SidedSquare What's up realtinymonster
16:09 Krock rubenwardy, by a bot
16:09 rubenwardy good
16:09 rubenwardy :P
16:09 Krock lel I would be crazy if I would add all of those 900 mods
16:09 Krock by HAND
16:10 PenguinDad Krock: add them by paw then :P

16:16 andrewammerlaan hello, I'm new to minetest, and I'm trying to add the moreblocks mod, but it fails to load, debug: http://pastebin.com/jWXHxUJC ,could someone please help me with this?
16:16 rubenwardy You probably have an outdated version of Minetest
16:16 Krock andrewammerlaan, you're using an outdated minetest version
16:16 rubenwardy Where did you get it from?
16:17 _3SidedSquare Will minetest ever aim to be backwards-compatible with mods?
16:17 andrewammerlaan ooh, I 0.4.9 is not the latest??, I donwloaded this one directly from the gentoo repos.
16:18 _3SidedSquare repos are almost always outdated
16:18 _3SidedSquare you need to learn to build from source until we get a fairly stable version
16:19 _3SidedSquare (it's really not hard)
16:19 thefamilygrog66 sfan5: did you get a chance to check out the mtr paste yet?
16:19 PenguinDad realtinymonster: yay
16:19 andrewammerlaan I see where the problem is, 0.4.10 is marked as beta/unstable, I'll just compile it myself, probably the best way anyway, thanks for the help

16:20 _3SidedSquare good luck
16:20 hoodedice bbl
16:20 bjrohan I've read that Mese is common at 1024, is it best to mine at 1024, or anywhere 1024 and below?
16:21 rubenwardy In 0.4.x, mod support is backwards compatible. Except for unstable features, which are warned against
16:21 rubenwardy 0.5 may not be backwards compatible with 0.4.x
16:21 Amaz bjrohan, That is mese blocks. You can find normal mese at around -200.
16:21 Amaz Mese blocks = 9 mese mese crystal = 1 mese

17:27 Mikeonline hi
17:27 sfan5_ hi
17:28 Mikeonline wurde eigentlich schonmal über ein keepalive für die clients-server nachgedacht @ sfan5_?
17:28 sfan5_ es wird ein ping gesendet
17:28 Mikeonline bei udp merken die nie wenn der server abgestürzt ist
17:28 sfan5_ allerdings wird nichts unternommen wenn keine antwort kommt
17:28 sfan5_ bzw. nicht direkt
17:28 Mikeonline wär gut wenn ne meldung ausgegeben würde
17:28 Mikeonline im chat oder so
17:28 sfan5_ wenn zu lange nichts kommt bleibt der mouse cursor stehen
17:28 Mikeonline zb server antwortet seit 30 oder 60 sekunden nicht mehr
17:29 Mikeonline aber die leute bauen dann immer weiter und bemerken es nicht
17:29 Mikeonline ideal wär sogar ein autoreconnect
17:29 Mikeonline mit maximal 3 versuchen oder so
17:33 sfan5_ mach am besten einen bugreport auf github auf
17:33 Mikeonline ok

18:41 bjrohan Can someone point me in the right direction for installing mods via git?
18:42 DusXMT sruz25: Yup. But the package management gives you so much power that, when it comes to package management systems, I'd say `portage' is my second favorite.
18:42 DusXMT The USE flags are a terribly powerful feature
18:42 TBC_x protip: don't add +dev in your USE flags
18:43 TBC_x in your global USE flags
18:43 sruz25 not saying that it's bad, my uni uses it on most unix machines
18:43 sruz25 but compiling everything is just not something I'd like to do on mobile dual core

19:03 blaise I thought it would..
19:04 blaise but not the button?
19:04 * thefamilygrog66 thinks that pressure plates should be built into the doors mod
19:04 blaise a mesecon line?
19:04 blaise I don't want to use a plate becuase it can be triggered by mobs
19:05 blaise so I can't put the button right next to the door to operate it?
19:05 ]DMackey[ joined #minetest
19:05 blaise I have to put it away from the door and run mesecons to it?
19:06 blaise he's not home
19:07 thefamilygrog66 I think I'm going to add pressure plates to the doors mod, just for the heck of it.
19:07 blaise I guess it's not such a big deal becuase we can operate the doors manually
19:07 blaise john_minetest: do you use carts?
19:08 bjrohan VanessaE: Can you point me in the right direction for adding mods via git?
19:09 blaise don't you need to establish a git account?
19:09 blaise also, they have rules about announcing mods on the minetest forum
19:11 VanessaE bjrohan: how do you mean?
19:11 VanessaE as in using git to manage them?
19:11 VanessaE or do you mean downloading?

19:39 Calinou erlehmann, old minecraft.net says: “For survival mode, I'd rather make the game too difficult than too easy.”
19:39 Calinou who believed him?
19:39 Calinou the game kept being easier and easier on each update, for commercial reasons
19:39 erlehmann Calinou that's the point of the assemblage!
19:39 Calinou (most recent updates made it a tad harder though)
19:40 thefamilygrog66 Only 14 servers listed in the public list - something is not working...
19:40 erlehmann Calinou i would say that it is common in personality cults to believe people even if they indicate to do otherwise.
19:41 erlehmann but i have seen people releasing source code if they specified a date
19:41 erlehmann for example for unteralterbach, the author said that the source code would ruin the fun (as it contains many easter eggs)
19:41 erlehmann so it was released some months later

19:49 erlehmann Calinou the systemd part is in there so people do not associate exterting territorial control it with dishonesty or closed source stuff.
19:49 erlehmann systemd people actually say they want control and act like it
19:49 erlehmann so this means that there is an opportunity for control even with access to source code!
19:49 blaise some people don't like systemd

20:03 Calinou http://opengameart.org/
20:04 Calinou has tons of freely-licensed art
20:04 Calinou just browse the Texture section ;)
20:04 iqualfragile Calinou: oh, that tool looks really nice (and like java) but wouldn't it be better to use tesseracts texute blending abilities?
20:05 erlehmann Calinou systemd has modulas, but it is not modular. components of systemd communicate in systemd-spefific ways over a systemdbus.
20:06 Calinou iqualfragile, you like Java? welcome aboard!
20:06 Calinou no, it's just simple blending
20:06 erlehmann Calinou you mentioned working on a game?
20:06 Calinou it can't render textures
20:06 erlehmann show and tell?
20:06 Calinou erlehmann, yes, I work on a Minetest game
20:06 iqualfragile Calinou: i despise java
20:06 Calinou semi-active right now (doesn't need to change much): https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=15&amp;t=9033
20:06 Calinou ah
20:07 erlehmann Calinou having modules does not help if they communicate using ill-defined or private interfaces.
20:08 erlehmann note that the common response of systemd developers is that you need to become part of the systemd assemblage – just implement systemd-specific interfaces!
20:08 erlehmann :D
20:08 erlehmann this is territorialization at its finest – and it does not even need to be closed source!
20:08 erlehmann i think they are doing it in a very very clever way
20:09 erlehmann Calinou that game looks awesome!
20:09 The_NetZ so tell me, does minetest support texture/resource packs?
20:10 TBC_x The_NetZ: texture packs
20:10 blaise yes
20:10 erlehmann ThatGraemeGuy indeeds
20:10 TBC_x I'm not sure about sounds
20:10 Calinou <erlehmann> i think they are doing it in a very very clever way
20:10 blaise supports sounds
20:10 Calinou please don't treat them like evil people either
20:10 Calinou they are trying their best to help
20:11 ThatGraemeGuy eh?
20:11 john_minetest left #minetest
20:12 erlehmann Calinou i don't treat them like evil people. i disapprove of their behaviour, but i still think they are highly talented programmers who have a hammer and prove conclusively that it is possible to nail the world.
20:12 erlehmann that is the ambivalence of the situation!
20:13 erlehmann systemd is better at many things that other software. but the nature of the systemd assemblage makes it impossible to get the good parts without the bad ones.
20:13 erlehmann and it did not have to be that way.
20:13 parabyte ah i figured out where to put mts schems
20:14 parabyte they need to reside in the world directory
20:14 parabyte okay how do i put my game into Creative mode?
20:14 adidik joined #minetest
20:14 parabyte is it all menu driven?
20:14 parabyte im connected to my own private server and i want to fly
20:16 parabyte or is there a fly?
20:16 Calinou well, systemd will be in a near-monopoly soon
20:16 Calinou kind of like Wayland over time?
20:16 erlehmann no, wayland is ex-X11-developers
20:17 erlehmann and it kinda makes sense
20:17 erlehmann they got fed up
20:17 The_NetZ TBC_x: location for reading up on?
20:17 The_NetZ heh. I like wayland's idea.
20:17 erlehmann Calinou there is no controversy about wayland as soon as one learn enough about it, while with systemd there is fractal disagreement – the more people learn about it, the more good and bad parts they find.
20:18 erlehmann i like waylands idea and dislike they did not go further (into plan9 territory)
20:18 cg72 joined #minetest
20:18 TBC_x erlehmann: well... plan9 was writing into files... that means memcpy around
20:19 hummingbee joined #minetest
20:19 erlehmann TBC_x the interesting thing that applies to both plan9 and systemd (and pulseaudio) development is that plan9 hat namespaces and a sane clone(2) syscall
20:20 erlehmann and union mounts
20:20 erlehmann in X11, windows could not be files, because there are no namespaces on most unices
20:20 erlehmann in plan9, each window has its own namespace, with /dev/label representing window label and reading /dev/mouse gives mouse coordinates
20:20 erlehmann you *cannot* do this without namespaces
20:21 TBC_x oh namespaces
20:21 * shadowzone pokes Calinou

20:23 WidDos I found something by C55: http://opengameart.org/content/16-%C3%97-16-pixel-art-textures
20:23 The_NetZ everything has a day to die :)
20:23 shadowzone WidDos, you can talk to Calinou now.
20:23 Calinou it's “made by c55” because many of the textures are from him
20:24 Calinou I've mostly modified them
20:24 Calinou nothing to fear
20:24 WidDos Ok. but Calinou did you ever host a server?
20:24 Calinou yes, exactly a year ago I started!
20:24 Calinou 2 years ago*
20:24 Calinou but I stopped exactly 23 months ago too :p
20:24 Calinou got bored
20:25 Amaz XD
20:25 shadowzone While I'm here can you guys check this out.  https://github.com/TheShadowZone12/shadow_game
20:25 The_NetZ Calinou: eh, I've gotten out of the FPS genre. not my thing these days :/
20:25 TBC_x i hate that old MT dirt texture
20:27 RealBadAngel The_NetZ, sounds can also be overwritten
20:27 RealBadAngel and stored on client side only
20:28 proller joined #minetest
20:28 The_NetZ RealBadAngel: yeah. I like some of the things with minetest alot :)
20:28 RealBadAngel server doesnt even have to send sounds to client

20:28 chchjesus joined #minetest
20:28 The_NetZ eg, online official mod database, very cool.
20:29 RealBadAngel but most of them still need lotsa work
20:29 The_NetZ only beef is I'll have to learn to use yet another programming language XD
20:32 iqualfragile RealBadAngel: thanks for all the work you put in minetest
20:32 Broam joined #minetest
20:33 RealBadAngel iqualfragile, ty. what happened so you say that?
20:35 The_NetZ hey, I'm glad for something *not* owned by M$ to play :)
20:35 chchjesus joined #minetest
20:37 Headlesschook joined #minetest
20:38 iqualfragile RealBadAngel: you continue to improve minetests graphics
20:38 iqualfragile (and other stuff)
20:38 RealBadAngel btw, how do you find highlighting?
20:39 iqualfragile quite nice, but 2 ideas for improvement:
20:39 iqualfragile 1. make the higligthing box a bit smaller
20:39 iqualfragile 2 use brighter versions of the nodes textures for the highlighting box
20:39 iqualfragile lel: http://who.is/dns/jamiehankins.co.uk
20:40 blaise The_NetZ: lua is pretty common
20:41 blaise It could be worse.. it could have been perl or something
20:41 RealBadAngel iqualfragile, ad1 theyre bigger on purpose to make halo visible
20:42 Hobodium You mean it could be lolcode
20:42 RealBadAngel ad2 highlighting doesnt use node textures
20:42 sruz25 it's a small thing, but god knows how annoying it (or rather lack of it) is: http://webmshare.com/o8QoL
20:42 RealBadAngel Lua is pretty nice language, makes nice pair together with c++
20:42 The_NetZ blaise: yeah. I'm aware its pretty common, I just don't know it XD
20:42 The_NetZ I'd have shat brix if it was done in ruby, lol. <3 ruby
20:43 blaise I wish I was a better coder..
20:43 The_NetZ RealBadAngel: so, in theory one could extract native MC textures and use those, correct?
20:43 The_NetZ I mean on a per-person basis, assuming you own M$craft XD
20:44 Akagi201 joined #minetest
20:44 RealBadAngel ofc, there are lot of tps converted from mc
20:44 iqualfragile RealBadAngel: yes, bigger then the node, but a bit smaller then it is at the moment
20:44 RealBadAngel even there was one with original mc textures
20:45 iqualfragile and i think it would look good if it would use the node textures
20:45 VanessaE there.
20:45 VanessaE homedecor has more stuff.  enjoy, folks.
20:45 The_NetZ so, where does one stick texture packs?
20:45 VanessaE The_NetZ: ~/.minetest/textures
20:45 VanessaE just put the whole folder there verbatim
20:45 The_NetZ VanessaE: ah, simple.
20:45 RealBadAngel then select it in main menu
20:46 The_NetZ would be a slight convenience if minetest created empty content roots automatically :)
20:46 erlehmann hahaha
20:46 erlehmann can someone tell me how to make a slime monster?
20:46 erlehmann just a hopping cube?
20:46 erlehmann that spreads slime?
20:47 VanessaE erlehmann: very carefully :P
20:47 TBC_x well... It'd be great if we could make minecraft_game in MT work
20:47 The_NetZ seems youd need the mod 'mob api' :)
20:47 erlehmann also is there an airship?
20:48 erlehmann cool! https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=6184
20:48 TBC_x just for the engine sake
20:49 RealBadAngel there was jumping slimes mod in the forums
20:49 RealBadAngel of any colors
20:49 erlehmann oh noes
20:49 erlehmann minetest is going
20:49 erlehmann MISSING SQL LOGIC OR MISSING DATABASE
20:50 erlehmann block failed to save
20:50 iqualfragile TBC_x: this was not done due to copyright questions
20:50 erlehmann what does that mean?
20:50 TBC_x ikr
20:50 VanessaE erlehmann: er...that's bad.
20:51 iqualfragile erlehmann: wtf did you do?
20:51 erlehmann VanessaE iqualfragile my /var partition is full?
20:51 iqualfragile that could explain it
20:52 iqualfragile i don't think minetest/sqlite handels that verry well/at all
20:52 TBC_x I mean in a way that we can introduce bosses, that don't lag and can have complex animations
20:53 TBC_x essentially make railcraft tanks possible
20:55 TBC_x multinode structures support in MT are needed just for doors sake
20:55 RealBadAngel we do already have such things
20:57 iqualfragile TBC_x: doors are not multinode structures, just two nodes interacting
20:57 iqualfragile TBC_x: but there is one interesting mod that actually creates entities from blocks
20:58 RealBadAngel also the tanks ;)
20:59 RealBadAngel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elstn-LahlI
21:00 TBC_x iqualfragile: I've noticed that doors are havin issues with prediction
21:00 iqualfragile TBC_x: prediction? what prediction?
21:00 iqualfragile there is no prediction
21:01 RealBadAngel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcQ--DOaEHI
21:01 TBC_x well... doors sometimes appear being broken... that may've been caused by network lag tho
21:02 TBC_x if prediction is not the case
21:04 iqualfragile TBC_x: yes, thats network lag
21:05 iqualfragile as all of minetests scripts are executed on the server and the client just gets audiovisuals there can't be prediction besides simple interaction (node breaking/building)
21:06 asie|tab joined #minetest
21:07 TBC_x maybe tweak the protocol a little
21:07 The_NetZ iqualfragile: honestly the idea of slime cube monsters predates minecraft by a long shot

21:08 TBC_x yeah, the first game i met with green slimes was warcraft I
21:08 iqualfragile yes, thats not a problem copyright wise
21:08 The_NetZ RealBadAngel: hey, the zip I found contains everything under a data folder, where do I stick this relative to ~/.minetest/textures/
21:08 iqualfragile the problem would be creating minecraft_game
21:09 The_NetZ yep.
21:09 The_NetZ I know! build it and host it on a tor node server :)
21:09 TBC_x or just pretend it to be made by anonymous
21:10 The_NetZ hehe
21:10 TBC_x that's what i would do
21:10 RealBadAngel The_NetZ, textures shall be in a subfolder, /textures/your_pack/ ...files here...
21:11 RealBadAngel if not, then move them
21:11 The_NetZ RealBadAngel: so if the texture pack contains everything in one root folder, that should be just below textures, then?
21:12 VanessaE The_NetZ: if the textures are in a "data" folder, they're probably for 0.3.x and won't work with current minetest
21:12 bjrohan joined #minetest
21:12 iqualfragile The_NetZ: would not work, tor is a tcp-only network while minetest utilizes the udp protocoll
21:12 TBC_x oh man... i love ambience
21:12 VanessaE especially if they lack normal prefixes like default_*, wool_*, and so on
21:12 The_NetZ iqualfragile: I just mean as a filehost, not a server host :)
21:12 TBC_x i never thought it could do *that* much

21:16 iqualfragile well, it would not even be that horrible but the minetest protocoll is horrible for file transfairs
21:17 TBC_x iqualfragile: MT should use file hashes and check local filesystem first, so it doesn't do unnecessary downloads

21:23 VanessaE manage them with git if you can
21:23 VanessaE and you don't need an account to do that if you're just cloning
21:24 bjrohan VanessaE: Okay. I have an account that I created years ago for some odd reason. Can you point me in the right direction of a tutorial how to do this properly? I do have git already installed on my machine

21:30 VanessaE sorry for the delay, I had to step away.
21:31 bjrohan If I have already installed a mod via reg download, can I still use git to update?
21:31 VanessaE no
21:31 VanessaE delete the other one first
21:31 VanessaE because it'll likely not have the git history, which is what's needed for updating later
21:32 bjrohan VanessaE: Okay. I am trying to install your HDX texture, on the site are links to the Repo, the link goes to a zip file, that isn't what I want to clone is it?
21:33 iqualfragile bjrohan: no, its not, git is not good with large not-text objects like textures
21:34 VanessaE bjrohan: use the repo link
21:36 VanessaE iqualfragile: you're right, but it's better to use git than zips though; i'd just rsync to somewhere instead if there were a graceful way for the average person to be able to clone the results.
21:37 bjrohan VanessaE: Okay, thanks
21:37 T4im iqualfragile: actually git can do pretty well with binary content.. it will use deltas with them just as with text.. it will even allow you do diff them, provided you tell git a tool that can diff such a binary object
21:37 T4im only merging is for obvious reasons not quite possible
21:37 FreeFull When I try to set minetest to use OpenGL, it ends up using burningvideo
21:38 FreeFull Which is rather slow
21:38 T4im also git only starts to have problems with objects if you talk gigabytes.. theres indeed a weakness.. in case you wanted version large images files for example..  textures are not even near that
21:39 T4im images as in filesystem images
21:39 FreeFull Anything I can do about that?

23:30 RealBadAngel is uzipping such hard?
23:30 RealBadAngel *un
23:31 TriBlade9 ^
23:31 RealBadAngel those youngsters nowadays are way too lazy

23:32 TriBlade9 Gotta go guys
23:32 TriBlade9 Nessa, get some sleep. x]
23:34 parabyte oh really lol
23:35 VanessaE yep, just unzip it to a folder on your desktop and run "minetest.exe" in the "bin" folder therein
23:35 VanessaE that's it.
23:35 parabyte okay i got another question i know C++ but never in my life looked at opengl and its wonders where on earth do i start? i do not believe i can get my head around gl but i am willing to give it a look scratching head ;)
23:35 VanessaE don't worry about opengl
23:35 VanessaE worry about learning irrlicht ;)
23:36 VanessaE the engine uses irrlicht to do the graphics work, irrlicht then uses opengl or directx or whatever
23:36 parabyte i presume that is a lib
23:36 VanessaE it's the main rendering lib Minetest uses
23:36 parabyte what i might look at over the weekend is the code for chat on minetest
23:36 parabyte is there code in there for tab complete for commands?
23:37 parabyte bash style tab complete or tab fail ;)
23:37 VanessaE yes
23:37 VanessaE in the F10 console there is nickname completion
23:37 VanessaE similar to IRC
23:37 VanessaE but not tab complete for commands et al.
23:37 parabyte oh blow me down i missed that one
23:38 VanessaE blow me down?  who are you, Popeye? ;)
23:38 parabyte sometimes :P
23:38 parabyte i converted part of a map to minetest
23:38 parabyte never quiet went to plan
23:39 parabyte i will look in depth tomorrow as i wont be tired and not at work, but none of the iron blocks got converted using sf's script in mcedit
23:39 parabyte i may tweak the code so it just uses something else other then iron
23:40 RealBadAngel nore's converter was quite good

23:52 blaise isn't that the job of the window manager?
23:53 VanessaE indeed it is
23:53 VanessaE however,
23:53 VanessaE Minetest can be configured to set the windows size
23:53 tanath i mean between closing, reopening
23:53 VanessaE I know
23:53 blaise if i ctrl-click the X at the top right corner it remembers size and location
23:53 blaise it seems to work in windows too
23:53 VanessaE but if you'd like to set a default size, you can do that.
23:53 VanessaE # Initial window size
23:53 VanessaE #screenW = 800
23:53 VanessaE #screenH = 600
23:54 VanessaE minetest.conf
23:54 blaise yer
23:54 blaise and fullscreen = true/false
23:54 VanessaE this too
23:54 VanessaE uncomment those two lines of course
23:54 blaise although I prefer windowed mode maximized over fullscreen
23:54 VanessaE ditto
23:55 blaise for some reason I can't seem two switch virtual desktops in any window manager if minetest is fullscreen
23:55 blaise s/two/to/
