03:47 sofar having a hard time finding the equivalent command of /gamemode ... is such a command even available without a mod?
03:49 VanessaE sofar: use the main menu
03:49 VanessaE there's a checkbox there to change between creative and survival modes.
03:50 VanessaE some mods let you assign "creative" priv to a player, and then the inventory will adapt accordingly
03:50 VanessaE unified inventory, for example.
03:50 sofar ok, that's what I thought, thanks
03:51 sofar I'm toying around ... eventually I'll end up porting my bukkit plugins to minetest
03:53 VanessaE sounds good to me :)
03:56 * sofar installs HDX
03:56 VanessaE heh have fun with that
03:56 VanessaE that texture pack takes a lot of resources
03:57 sofar not too hard, I only grabbed the x32 ones, they seem fine to me
03:57 VanessaE oh ok
03:57 VanessaE it really starts to shine at 128x
03:58 sofar ehhhh it's a blocky game. No matter how hard you try. Can only make voxels so much pretty ;)
03:58 VanessaE heh
03:58 exio4 well
03:58 VanessaE try anyway if you have the RAM for it :)
03:58 exio4 that's what people said
03:59 exio4 then people started making less voxely models...
03:59 exio4 nodeboxes and models
03:59 sofar I'm playing on a 32bit linux box, so (yeah yeah I need to fix that)
03:59 exio4 people ain't sane over here
03:59 exio4 sofar, 32bit? what's this? 1995?
03:59 exio4 :p
04:00 sofar I have my reasons, already work professionally on linux distributions, so at home I don't want to spennd any more time than I have to
04:00 sofar I still mess around with it way too much anyway
04:01 sofar (the curse of being a paid Linux developer)
04:01 exio4 sounds the good kind of curse
04:01 exio4 +like
04:01 sofar it is
04:06 sofar fwiw here's the 2 mods I'd like to port over:
04:06 sofar https://github.com/sofar/Sedimentology
04:06 sofar https://github.com/sofar/Botany
04:06 sofar hey is the in-game mod screen broken? I can't see any mod past page 14/21
04:07 VanessaE not sure, but I always install mods manually anyways
04:08 VanessaE there was a mod for minetest that does something like that sedimentology mod
04:08 VanessaE and for botany, there's the plantlife modpack
04:09 VanessaE (particularly, plants_lib therein)
04:09 sofar yeah I'll make sure to test existing mods
04:09 sofar sedimentology is pretty complex, I doubt anyone came close to what it does in minetest so far
04:09 VanessaE maybe this one?  https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7111
04:10 VanessaE from his description, it looks like he was inspired by you :)
04:10 sofar does some of the basics, I'll certainly open that up deeper
04:11 VanessaE fork it
04:11 VanessaE Dan's no longer around and developing
04:11 sofar my version accounted for things like vegetation, rainfall, nearby water, temperature, elevation
04:11 VanessaE so it might save some time if you use his mod as a basis for yours
04:11 sofar don't forget I have a fully working version already
04:11 sofar that I spent hours tweaking :)
04:11 sofar well, more like weeks
04:12 VanessaE true enough, but yours is in Java, not Lua :)
04:12 sofar easy enough, one programming language or another
04:12 exio4 sofar, how can you handle Java without writing your own language that compiles to it?
04:12 VanessaE I wish you luck, we can always use more mods :)
04:12 sofar as long as I can modify blocks in the game somehow the concept is entirely similar
04:13 sofar my plugins are entirely stateless anyway
04:14 sofar his plugin is certainly a great way for me to start porting and learn the plugin API
04:15 VanessaE yep, modifying blocks in-game is pretty easy
04:16 exio4 the story of my life in a graph http://i.imgur.com/gtD8Dw6.png
04:16 sofar his plugin doesn't move blocks downhill looking at the code...
04:16 exio4 moving blocks downhill?
04:17 exio4 like, falling?
04:17 sofar that's what sedimentology does, yes
04:17 exio4 you can call falling_node(?) I guess
04:17 VanessaE exio4: HE MEANS TO FOLLOW THE PATH OF A RIVER/STREAM i THINK
04:17 VanessaE fuck
04:17 VanessaE sorry, caps
04:17 * exio4 presses VanessaE's caps lock
04:17 sofar check the animated gifs out here: http://dev.bukkit.org/media/images/69/44/Sedimentology-3.gif
04:18 VanessaE I'd rip the thing off, but on this keyboard, that feels "wrong"...
04:18 sofar it moves blocks downhill under certain circumstances, either under water or not
04:18 VanessaE sofar: ahhh gotchya
04:18 sofar I have a friend who remaps it to `ctrl` for emacs....
04:18 VanessaE the engine has a limited form of that on new maps, goes by the term "mudflow"
04:18 VanessaE but it only works at mapgen time
04:19 exio4 hah, I did something like
04:19 exio4 it basically used a super-hack :D
04:19 sofar so I studied geology a long time ago... I've tried very hard to make that plugin as realistic and balanced as possible
04:19 exio4 I suck at geology
04:20 sofar you don't suck rocks, you lick them
04:20 * exio4 goes back with algebra and programming
04:20 exio4 sofar, toads, you mean
04:20 VanessaE hH
04:20 VanessaE haha
04:20 sofar I got to throw my 2 boys in bed, be back after story reading time
04:20 VanessaE gently
04:20 VanessaE :)
04:21 sofar oh no they like it when I really throw them
04:21 sofar (they're 4 and 6)
04:21 VanessaE heh
04:24 VanessaE there, took the stupid key off.

06:26 sofar heh, hitting quite them asserts still
06:26 exio4 what're you doing?

06:26 exio4 uhh
06:26 sofar just moving about the map and flying around
06:26 exio4 that 're
06:27 sofar 22:25:41: ERROR[EmergeThread0]: ERROR: An unhandled exception occurred: std::bad_alloc
06:27 VanessaE sounds like you're getting bit by that memory leak
06:27 VanessaE can you try a development build instead?
06:28 sofar oh yeah, I'll gladly do that. I can trail git if needed - I compiled from src anyway
06:30 sofar went well over 1.1g ram ... then pooped out again
06:31 VanessaE yeah, there's one or two still left; most have already been fixed and what remain have pull requests waiting to be merged
06:32 Zeno` there is still one in the server unless you change a .conf setting (because it can cause glitches)
06:32 Zeno` the glitches it causes will be there as a result of the crash anyway, so if it's happening a lot it might be worth adding anyway
06:32 Zeno` but, yes, this will require at least 0.4.11
06:36 Zeno` in minetest.conf you can set   liquid_queue_purge_time = 36000   which will, every 10 minutes, half empty a queue that has a tendency to cause memory leaks.  36000 is 10*60*60  (liquid_queue_purge_time is in seconds)
06:36 VanessaE I thought you fixed that/
06:37 Zeno` I did, but the default is now 0
06:37 Zeno` 0 = disabled
06:37 Zeno` because what happens is if the value is set too low then liquids that should be reflowed do not
06:38 Zeno` it kind of depends on how often the server runs out of RAM
06:38 Zeno` which is why it's kind of tricky to fix
06:40 Zeno` another option is to set liquid_loop_max to some very large value.... e.g. liquid_loop_max = 999999999
06:40 Zeno` which helps alleviate the problem but causes other problems
06:40 Zeno` (and doesn't get rid of the problem entirely either... just slows it down)
06:41 Zeno` that whole liquid flow stuff needs to be rewritten but it's not easy :(
06:47 * VanessaE wanders off to bed agaij
06:47 VanessaE again*
06:50 CWz joined #minetest
06:54 gregorycu Can we tell when we are running low on memory and start purging the liquid queue
06:54 gregorycu Whatever the fuck that means
06:54 Zeno` kind of hard to check available memory unfortunately
06:54 Zeno` especially cross-platform
06:54 gregorycu Irr doesn't provide a way?
06:55 gregorycu Are you able to explain what the liquid queue is?
06:55 Zeno` probably not, but TBH I haven't looked
06:55 gregorycu Is it something I could optimise easily?
06:55 chchjesus joined #minetest
06:55 Zeno` map.cpp lines 1616-
06:55 Zeno` that function
06:55 gregorycu Thank you
06:56 Zeno` by default the number of liquids in that queue processed per call to the function is 100000
06:56 Zeno` (this is to stop DoS by carefully placed liquid blocks)
06:57 gregorycu 100k
06:57 Zeno` but unfortunately the m_transforming_liquid queue will just keep getting larger and larger and larger
06:57 Zeno` err 10000
06:57 gregorycu That's a lot
06:58 Zeno` so what purge tried to do was... after xxxx seconds, discard the the oldest items in the queue
06:58 Zeno` yeah it is
06:58 gregorycu Um
06:58 Zeno` but the queue is millions in size
06:58 Zeno` (can be millions in size)
06:58 gregorycu So, this is a container of block coordinates?
06:58 gregorycu With duplicates?
06:59 gregorycu A queue
06:59 Zeno` it shouldn't have dupes, but I didn't check
06:59 gregorycu It shouldn't have dupes... ok
06:59 Zeno` yes, no dupes
06:59 gregorycu That was my next comment
06:59 Zeno` it's a uniquequeue
07:00 Zeno` not that tranformLiquids() also adds to the queue itself (but this is not the main -- or really even any -- issue)
07:00 Zeno` note*
07:01 gregorycu If we could tell when we are getting memory constrained, that would make our solutions way more elegant
07:01 Zeno` that queue can easily consume 1GB or more on a server with just one player
07:01 gregorycu Than, you know, picking what we think are good magic values
07:01 gregorycu But I'm aware it's hard
07:01 Zeno` That's why there is no default value
07:02 Zeno` and why the feature is currently disabled (the default purge value is 0)
07:02 rickmcfarley joined #minetest
07:02 Zeno` 10000 is to stop the server getting stuck in that loop for a huge amount of time because a person places a liquid source in a cunningly devised location
07:03 Zeno` perhaps the 10000 should not be a value at all, but the function only iterate for a certain amount of time
07:03 Zeno` but that will not fix the increasing queue size issue
07:04 Zeno` if the 10000 is not there and there are 9 million blocks to process on a server then the server can't do anything else (if the 10000 "limit" of iterations was not in place)
07:04 Zeno` I think I said somewhere the whole function needs to be rewritten and/or thought about a lot more
07:04 gregorycu bb in 5 min, I have comments
07:04 Zeno` but maybe that was in a PM to someone
07:05 Zeno` ok, PM me when you get back so I notice?
07:10 Calinou joined #minetest
07:18 Zeno` 10000 used to be 3000 as well I think
07:19 Zeno` I'll grab a profile of the current server without any purge
07:26 gregorycu So, UniqueQueue uses a map, and a list
07:27 gregorycu Two containers ill suited for their purpose
07:27 exio4 errr
07:28 gregorycu What is wanted, is a set, and a queue
07:28 gregorycu I'm not saying the performance characteristics are drastically different, but they may be
07:29 Zeno` I agree
07:29 Zeno` but will they increase performance enough to "keep up"?
07:30 Zeno` well, they can't
07:30 Zeno` it would mitigate the problem of course
07:30 gregorycu I agree with that
07:30 gregorycu We do need a proper solution where the liquid transformations consume a "fair" slice of available processing
07:31 Zeno` I made a mistake... liquid_loop_max = 10000 <-- 0.4.10 default   liquid_loop_max = 1000000  <- 0.4.11 default
07:31 gregorycu "fair" meaning "equitable", not "large"
07:31 Zeno` the reason for me increasing that value was all the other optimisations I made to other parts of the engine was causing the queue to grow much more rapidly than in 0.4.10
07:32 kahrl gregorycu: imho the bigger problem than using wrong data structures is that UniqueQueue.push_back needlessly makes two lookups
07:32 gregorycu Which is classically how a lot of performance problems become visible
07:32 Zeno` and "fair" is kind of hard to define. It should (probably) have to take into account client lag
07:32 Calinou liquid spreading is broken since (somewhere in 0.4)
07:33 Zeno` Calinou, which is why I said the whole function (or a group of functions) need to be reconsidered
07:33 Haudegen joined #minetest
07:33 gregorycu kahrl: that is true
07:33 gregorycu If we change it to a set, we can just insert all the time
07:33 gregorycu And check to see if the insert was successful
07:33 kahrl https://github.com/kahrl/minetest/commit/17d6a4355afcc5c452e4ddd695715bcdc97cabaf#diff-e5ab4d3af8e375631903ed35b243c3b4R28
07:34 Zeno` that makes it faster...
07:34 Zeno` but how does it ensure that the queue does not "run away"?
07:34 kahrl of course I wouldn't be against replacing list with queue
07:34 kahrl Zeno`: it doesn't
07:34 Zeno` oh, I was talking to gregorycu :)
07:34 Zeno` lag
07:34 Zeno` ircd needs to be optimised
07:35 Zeno` :D
07:35 kahrl hehe
07:36 kahrl the only thing I can think of is to remove entries from m_transforming_liquid when the corresponding mapblock is unloaded
07:36 kahrl but that would be extremely slow with the current data structures
07:37 LazyJ What if liquids didn't flow? Everything else in Minetest is a cube. Instead of "flowing", the cubes spread out a limited distance and the edges exposes to air are replaced with a slope?
07:38 Calinou then you couldn't distinguish still from flowing
07:39 LazyJ No. But if that closed a potential hazard and memory leak it may be a worth-while trade-off.
07:39 kahrl whoops, line 60 (in my link) should be // Already existed
07:40 LazyJ Zeno mentioned earlier that if liquid source nodes were placed in certain locations they could cause some serious problem.
07:41 kahrl also instead of processing liquid nodes in a FIFO fashion, it would perhaps be better to prioritise them by distance from the nearest player
07:41 Zeno` LazyJ, they can cause (in effect) a DoS on the server
07:41 kahrl (I don't know what the best data structure would be for that)
07:42 Zeno` by stalling the server in the transformLiquids() loop (and that's why the number of iterations is limited in the first place... in 0.4.9 they were not)
07:42 Zeno` current memory profile for a short execution of the server (1 client): http://i.imgur.com/JHxcGXv.jpg
07:42 gregorycu (Sorry, had to go AFK, have bali belly)
07:43 gregorycu Yes, there are two problems here
07:43 gregorycu Firstly, the liquid transformation code is slow
07:43 gregorycu Secondly, it can run away
07:43 Zeno` if you trace the source code you will see the liquid queue increases because of createBlock and createBlankBlock (just trust me or trace it yourself :D)
07:43 Zeno` gregorycu, correct
07:44 gregorycu Making the first better, makes the second a little bit less of a concern
07:44 lordawe joined #minetest
07:44 gregorycu And is easier
07:44 Zeno` instead of limiting the number of iterations *all* the time though, maybe things can go into "suspected DoS mode"
07:44 Zeno` Not sure
07:44 gregorycu I don't like it
07:45 Zeno` I don't either. But remember this is bad enough for 1 client wandering around
07:45 gregorycu I'd honestly prefer "CPU constrained mode"
07:45 Zeno` isn't that the same thing with a different name?
07:45 Zeno` :)
07:45 gregorycu Somewhat, but one implies malice
07:46 Zeno` true
07:46 Zeno` and in most cases the issue is not due to malice at all
07:46 gregorycu And also, it detects a cause, not a symptom
07:46 Zeno` that massif data I just collected involved no malice
07:46 kahrl I also agree with limiting time instead of # of nodes
07:46 kahrl because some nodes take very little time of process and others ages
07:46 Zeno` I just had 1 client connected and continuous_forward = true
07:47 Zeno` kahrl, I agree with that as well
07:47 gregorycu In general, the server should have a "target tick rate"
07:47 gregorycu Much like a FPS target
07:47 gregorycu If the server starts to lag behind that, it starts throwing away work
07:47 gregorycu Slowly at first, and then more aggressively
07:48 gregorycu Flowing liquids are not as important as sending clients entity updates
07:48 hmmmm [02:43 AM] <Zeno`> if you trace the source code you will see the liquid queue increases because of createBlock and createBlankBlock (just trust me or trace it yourself :D)
07:48 hmmmm WTF does this mean
07:48 gregorycu I don't know, but I'm about to find out :)
07:49 hmmmm a block got loaded and it happened to have liquid so the liquid got added to the queue?
07:49 Zeno` hmmmm, those are where the liquids are coming from
07:49 hmmmm liquids don't simply come out of thin CONTENT_IGNORE
07:49 hmmmm (i wanted to say CONTENT_AIR which was punnier but less accurate)
07:50 Zeno` err yes, you're right. This was so long ago I don't remember accurately
07:50 gregorycu What's the best way to profile this Zeno` , stand at the top of a mountain and drop some water?
07:51 hmmmm hahahaha
07:51 hmmmm that's an awesome way to DoS a server
07:51 Zeno` gregorycu, set noclip to true and walk around underground making lava caves
07:51 Zeno` hmmmm, and yet you could do that in 0.4.9 :D
07:52 hmmmm @ kahrl's idea to prioritize liquids according to player proximity
07:52 hmmmm the only problem i have with that is the liquids will probably get processed after the player already left that area
07:53 hmmmm otherwise it'd be trivial as using a priority queue (heap)
07:53 kahrl hmmmm: well it's mostly intended as a fallback
07:53 kahrl ideally the queue would always be mostly empty and completely processed in a server tick
07:54 gregorycu prioritizing liquids according to player proximity is hard
07:54 hmmmm oh i know
07:54 gregorycu And may add significant processing time
07:54 hmmmm a 3 dimensional btree
07:54 hmmmm yeah, agreed there
07:56 hmmmm i can't come up with an efficient way to search, frankly
07:56 hmmmm well
07:56 gregorycu I think the best approach is to take the CPU starvation problem as an edgecase
07:56 hmmmm i guess you could have three b-trees, one for each direction
07:57 gregorycu A supported edgecase
07:57 gregorycu The player proximity queue is optimising for the edgecase, at the expense of the common case
07:57 gregorycu As kahrl suggested
07:58 hmmmm so you look up nodes in a.. 5 node range in the X direction (std::map::find and then iterate back and forward until out of items or next element is out of range), do this 2 more times for Y and Z and then take the intersection of all three results
07:58 hmmmm :D
07:58 hmmmm and of course you need to do this for each player
07:59 hmmmm dammit why is this IRQ timing out...
08:00 Zeno` I guess it's keeping up better than before: http://pastebin.com/Ca5JrsWD
08:00 Zeno` I don't like it though
08:00 kahrl how about this rough approximation: 1. have one liquid queue per mapblock instead of a global one, 2. in transformLiquids first loop over the active blocks and then over the non-active blocks
08:00 Zeno` now it's 1200000
08:01 gregorycu I like hmm's approach, except I'd just iterate forward
08:02 Zeno` I dunno. Both are probably worth nutting out in more detail
08:02 gregorycu Anyway, I still think we're optimising an edgecase
08:02 gregorycu Why can't it keep up?
08:02 gregorycu I still don't understand
08:03 Zeno` it mostly can now
08:03 Zeno` it's when lots of mapgen is happening
08:03 Zeno` say you have 4 players all exploring
08:03 Zeno` or 1 player with no clip exploring
08:04 Zeno` there is always lava being added
08:04 kahrl well, let's try doing the limiting by time instead of # of nodes
08:04 kahrl in my experience the nodes generated by mapgen are always processed very quickly
08:04 hmmmm yes
08:04 Zeno` but they're not
08:04 Zeno` http://pastebin.com/Ca5JrsWD
08:04 hmmmm i don't even understand why it isn't time limited to begin with
08:04 Zeno` I was doing nothing there
08:05 Zeno` jsut a client flying through space
08:05 hmmmm that's because you're talking about lava nodes and kahrl is talking about oceans
08:05 Zeno` that queue should be < 100000 and probably close to nothing
08:05 hmmmm bonus points if you're working on mapgen v5
08:05 Zeno` and it certainly should be always going up :)
08:06 Zeno` I might add some code and print out the queue size on my server every 10 minutes to debug.txt
08:06 hmmmm for what it's worth, mapgen v5 caves near lots of lava pockets is pretty much the worst case mapgen caused liquid transforming scenario
08:06 Zeno` even though I don't have many players these days :(

08:08 gregorycu What governs the flow rate of water?
08:08 hmmmm viscosity
08:08 Zeno` maybe that could be added anyway so we get a 24-hour view of the queue size on an average server
08:08 hmmmm there's also a config setting
08:08 Zeno` surely someone will volunteer to collect the data hehe
08:09 gregorycu If I crank the viscosity up to something high, that should better show CPU bottlenecks right?
08:09 hmmmm also, lower liquid_update
08:10 hmmmm no, cranking the viscosity up would make less of a CPU bottleneck
08:10 hmmmm it's the opposite
08:10 gregorycu Sorry, yeah

08:14 Zeno` yes it does need to be time-based rather than node-based for a start
08:15 Zeno` kahrl, are you doing that? :D
08:27 kahrl nope, I have to leave :P
08:28 kahrl I might do it on the weekend if nobody has by then

13:03 lordawe hi guys, please, I am running small MT server (LAN) on Windows and I think it needs some tweaking little bit. In newly generated world there are some shadow issues and I need to tweak performance a little bit - it might be because of some mod incompatibility. Is anybody, who understand it, willing to help me? Please send me a PM. Thank you very much!
13:06 Trustable joined #minetest
13:14 Jordach the shadows are a mapgen bug
13:14 Jordach plant a sapling and it should go away
13:15 gregorycu Is there an issue for this bug?
13:15 AnotherBrick joined #minetest
13:17 Jordach gregorycu, nothing you can do until a mod happens to run a voxelmanip lighting update
13:17 stakewinner00 joined #minetest
13:17 gregorycu ?
13:18 gregorycu So this is a lua mapget not telling the engine to redo the lighting?
13:18 gregorycu mapgen
13:18 Jordach gregorycu, black areas are caused by a mod placing / removing nodes not updating the light values for the area
13:19 gregorycu Shouldn't the light values be calculated by the engine and not the mapgen?
13:19 meldrian joined #minetest
13:22 Jordach because some nodes might be a light source or allow light to pass through
13:31 lordawe well, but I've used WorldEdit and //fixlight with no luck at all
13:32 lordawe I also tried to place a light sources in the area, but it didn't fix light either
13:33 Zeno` joined #minetest
13:33 VanessaE select to encompass the dark area both significantly below and WAY above it, //replace air air
13:33 VanessaE works better than //fixlight
13:33 lordawe I tried that too
13:33 VanessaE make your selection wider and much taller then
13:34 gregorycu I think unloading and reloading the chunk should do it
13:35 gregorycu Wait
13:35 lordawe how can I do it?
13:35 VanessaE just go further out horizontally from the shadow, and further below/above when you set //pos1 and //pos2
13:35 lordawe 2VanessaE: I cannot replace all with air, because I would damage the surface
13:36 VanessaE nonono
13:36 VanessaE //replace air air
13:36 lordawe oh I see
13:36 VanessaE replace all air...with air.
13:36 VanessaE just do it blindly
13:36 VanessaE it won't damage anything.
13:39 lordawe I have selected 4.9 M nodes, replaced air with air and WE stated: 4,04M nodes updated
13:39 lordawe and
13:40 lordawe it looks the same
13:40 VanessaE strange
13:40 lordawe yes
13:40 VanessaE screenshot of the area?
13:41 lordawe w8
13:42 lordawe HA! oh no. so by doing replace air with air ENLARGED dark area actually
13:42 gregorycu hmm...
13:42 VanessaE do it again
13:42 VanessaE same selection.
13:43 gregorycu Keep doing it until everything is dark
13:43 VanessaE no, seriously.
13:43 VanessaE every so often, the //replace command gets the lighting wrong

13:49 lordawe http://i.cubeupload.com/kfDJpa.png
13:49 VanessaE ok good
13:49 lordawe but there are such places here and there, I wouldn't spend my life by fixing light :)
13:49 VanessaE now you know what to do :)
13:50 VanessaE why it happens in the first place, I don't know
13:51 lordawe it might be wrong mix of mods
13:51 lordawe so I need help
13:51 VanessaE it's not mods.
13:51 VanessaE it's an engine bug.
13:51 VanessaE this happens on vanilla maps too, every once in a while
13:51 gregorycu Jordach says it's mods
13:52 lordawe i disabled windmill mod because it created a HUGE cube of rotating windmills near this place
13:52 Jordach gregorycu, it's NOT MODS
13:52 VanessaE lordawe: that's a corrupt mapblock
13:52 gregorycu Sorry, mapgen
13:52 gregorycu Lualand
13:52 lordawe there was same huge cube of travelnet boxes, so many that The Matrix sux
13:53 gregorycu The mapgen shouldn't modify light values
13:53 gregorycu As they'll get recalculated by the engine from time to time
13:53 gregorycu Which should have been the case here
13:54 lordawe As I told before, I am starting with a new map, so I can create another one easily, but tell me what mapgen to use and how to configure it in a good way
13:54 gregorycu Which mapgen did you use?
13:54 VanessaE well for starters, update to 0.4.11
13:54 lordawe this was built in V7
13:54 VanessaE and stick to mapgen v6
13:55 lordawe it is 0.4.11
13:55 VanessaE no it isn't.
13:55 VanessaE you're using 0.4.10, so say you screenshots.
13:55 VanessaE and that looks like mapgen v5
13:55 lordawe that is my remote client, but server is 0.4.11 :) see?
13:55 VanessaE oh ok
13:56 lordawe okay, I really am not sure which mapgen is this, because I have tried all
13:56 lordawe I also tried paramat7
13:56 lordawe and noisetest or what is the name
13:56 VanessaE that's either mapgen v5 or v7, or maybe paragen
13:56 gregorycu I think the lighting is handled on both the client and server
13:57 lordawe definetly not paragen
13:57 lordawe because I disabled it
13:57 VanessaE I always just use mapgen v6 without any terrain mods
13:58 lordawe I want nice mountains not too steep, I do not want float islands, and I want lakes and rivers if posibble
13:58 VanessaE I seein there you're using plantlife modpack, that should be perfectly fine too
13:58 lordawe okay, I also use moretrees mod and can I reduce the amount of those huge trees?
13:58 Wayward_One What on Earth happened to the fonts??
13:59 Wayward_One xD
13:59 VanessaE you can, the settings are in biome_defs.lua
13:59 lordawe okay, wait please
13:59 Wayward_One Just git pulled, now they're huge

14:12 lordawe I see you are not familiar, but maybe somebody else
14:12 lordawe okay.
14:12 VanessaE actually I have seen this mod
14:12 VanessaE now that you linked to it
14:12 VanessaE but I haven't used it yuet
14:12 VanessaE yet*
14:13 lordawe well, so, with a new map, I should stick to v6 mapgen and tweak biomes in biome_defs.lua
14:13 VanessaE I had looked at it briefly to replace the carts mod in dreambuilder but wasn't sure if it was suitable.
14:13 lordawe of plant_life mod
14:13 VanessaE yeah, for the moretrees if you want them to be less prolific.
14:13 anunakki joined #minetest
14:14 lordawe It would be good if size of same kind of tree vary a little bit by random number
14:15 VanessaE that requires changes to the tree models.
14:15 VanessaE I never really coded them properly to vary in size
14:15 VanessaE but it's doable
14:15 VanessaE at the time, randomness didn't work quite right
14:15 lordawe I see
14:16 lordawe so, there could be i.e. 3 tree models and it would be selecting it randomly
14:17 VanessaE yes
14:17 lordawe okay
14:17 VanessaE that's easily done, just requires designing new models

21:40 Brains VanessaE: Was there ever a cause found for that weird appearance of windmills and unknown blocks and the like that was mentioned in channel the other day?
21:41 VanessaE Brains: no, I can only conclude it was a corrupt mapblock or a mod that was creating weird mapblocks in general
21:43 Brains VanessaE: I had something similar in a git-build dreambuilder-game only world the other day.  (I am an idiot and didn't note the commit I built...)  I've since updated both, rebuilt, and started a world...  Haven't seen it since so dunno if it was fixed or just not encountered again.
21:45 * Brains was thinking it was related to a crash he was having but that turned out to be the facedir > 23 thing.
21:45 VanessaE I'm still getting crashes while connected to my Creative server.  when I can be bothered, I'll get a backtrace (though Wayward_One I think already did)
21:46 jojoa1997 joined #minetest
21:49 Brains My crashes were client-only and I never found any errors/warnings in the server log.  What kind of logging options do you use for your servers?
21:50 VanessaE this is client-side also
21:51 VanessaE and my servers are just basic logging, and capturing the console output to a separate file also.  enough to catch a crashdump.
21:56 lordawe 2Brains: about that windmill cubes, I do not think it was just a corrupt mapblock. Map was fresh and it appeared in two maps I've tried, so I disabled the mod and deleted it
21:57 lordawe maybe the mod is not 0.4.11 compatible, or it has to do something with v5 and v7 mapgens
21:58 Brains lordawe: I was running dreambuilder alone so I'm guessing that it isn't just a non-0.4.11 mod.
21:59 VanessaE that would be no.
22:00 VanessaE dreambuilder works fine in 0.4.11
22:00 VanessaE and has the windmill mod in it
22:00 VanessaE it's a mapgen bug or a mod generating a corrupt mapblock
22:00 iqualfragile_ who maintains pipeworks atm?
22:00 VanessaE iqualfragile_: mostly nore
22:01 VanessaE I started pipeworks, but I kinda maintain a hands-off approach to that mod these days
22:01 * Brains makes a note to look into the default settings stuff a bit later...  His worlds were generated with very little in the way of settings (and no GUI at all).
22:02 VanessaE (because others generally do better than me at maintaining it)
22:03 iqualfragile_ because it seems to make minetest eat a gig of ram and then die
22:04 VanessaE that's... not right
22:04 VanessaE minetest has some known memory leaks
22:04 VanessaE couple of pretty bad ones afaik
22:04 VanessaE but nothing that should be triggered by pipeworks
22:04 carjack joined #minetest
22:05 carjack good evening
22:05 VanessaE bbl
22:06 carjack big bad lion?
22:06 VanessaE be back later :PO

22:10 iqualfragile_ VanessaE: its definitly caused by pipeworks, when i disable it everything works
22:11 lordawe VanessaE: pls, what lua file did you say I can tweak biomes ?
22:20 acerspyro VanessaE: You seem pretty in-demand today, but I just installed release 0.4.11 from my repos, and it crashes aswell on your server.
22:24 iqualfragile joined #minetest
22:31 twoelk I just tried to tour that french server to see the cathedral but my brand new client keeps crashing as well
22:31 twoelk or rather it freezes and eventually crashes
22:31 acerspyro What distro?
22:32 twoelk uhm the krock version for win32
22:32 acerspyro ok nvm
22:33 acerspyro krock? wat?
22:33 twoelk hm the official 0.4.11 doesn't seem to like this pc much as well :-(
22:34 acerspyro idk, it only crashes in OpenSUSE, but it didn't in Fuckuntu.
22:35 * twoelk is starting up his laptop to compare
22:35 carjack she said bbl
22:35 Zamack joined #minetest
22:36 acerspyro I wasn't there when she did
22:36 iqualfragile VanessaE: see -dev
22:36 carjack yes that is why I am say'ng
22:36 Zamack Is there an official/popular minetest mumble or teamspeak server?
22:38 carjack no official servers as far as I know
22:39 twoelk don't think there is such a thing as any official Minetest playing server. Only developing seems to producing official content. All playing is unofficial ;-P
22:40 iqualfragile btw: there is an unofficiall patch that adds mumble positional audio to minetest
22:40 Zamack Oh, cool.
22:40 Zamack Well, thanks for the info guys.
22:41 twoelk bah, got no micro hooked to this outdated box
22:41 acerspyro I do :D
22:42 Zamack that's okay, you could just listen/type
22:42 roniz joined #minetest
22:43 twoelk eh? mumble can say what I type?
22:43 Zamack Yes, actually...with text to speech on.
22:43 Zamack if everyone has it enabled I mean
22:44 twoelk cool feature

22:53 oreminer Hi! I seem to be too stupid to get normalmaps working, using hdx-512 and hdx-512-normalmaps with MT 0.4.10, copied all images to ~/.minetest/textures/hdx/, it just ignores the normalmaps
22:54 oreminer (shaders, bumpmapping is on, only generate normalmaps + parallax is off)
22:54 Wayward_One hmm
22:55 Wayward_One btw, latest version is 0.4.11 :P
22:55 oreminer I know, but nobody updated the gentoo portage ebuild yet, and I was too lazy to do it locally ;-)
22:55 Wayward_One lol
22:56 Wayward_One did you try with normalmaps on?
22:56 oreminer Yes, does not change anything....
22:56 carjack gentoo :)
22:56 acerspyro lol
22:56 acerspyro I am on SuSE, and 0.4.11 is in the repos already.
22:56 Wayward_One hmm... I think VanessaE (creator of that TP) might know more
22:57 LazyJ joined #minetest
22:59 oreminer Mhhhm... that's interesting... if I ONLY use the hdx-512-normalmaps folder (which only has the normalmaps) and put that in the textures folder, I get the normalmaps
23:00 oreminer but on the non-HDX textures
23:08 deltib joined #minetest

23:21 oreminer I'll give up for today... good night all! :-)
