00:23 devmarth I did the buildbot script for cross compiling to windows, and I think I installed cmake wrong, if anyone can help, let me know
00:26 devmarth my error found here: http://pastebin.com/tRmMNa8H
00:30 devmarth CMake error: CMAKE_C_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage AND CMake Error: CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER not set, after Enable Language

00:52 Warr1024 if you enable 3D filtering, it looks like you get a lot of linear blurring on low-res textures
00:53 Warr1024 but upscaling the textures to some minimum size, like 64x, more-or-less fixes it
00:53 Warr1024 and it doesn't look like it takes a lot of code to do this once, automatically, at time of texture load
00:54 Warr1024 if this works out, I may tackle the problem with the way png optimizers tend to discard color information in fully-transparent pixels
00:55 Warr1024 which causes linear filters to darken the edges of textures.

01:25 hmmmm joined #minetest
01:26 thefamilygrog66 weird bug: I wrote a monster spawner mod, that spawns 1 random mob per second for 20 seconds, but in some locations, it spawns a whole bunch of the same kind all at once (i.e. still spawns 20 mobs, but a whole bunch of maybe three different types)
01:27 devmarth thefamiltgrog66, mind helping me with something?
01:27 devmarth *thefamilygrog66
01:28 devmarth help with this: http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11435
01:29 thefamilygrog66 I'll take a look, but can't promise anything, haha
01:29 devmarth Thanks, its probably something stupid.
01:35 thefamilygrog66 Not sure devmarth - I've only compiled linux builds in ubuntu, but it looks like it can't find required files in the path you're using
01:38 paramat grog, you use an ABM to spawn them?
01:41 thefamilygrog66 paramat, no - on_step = function(self, dtime)
01:43 paramat ah okay, no idea then
01:43 thefamilygrog66 I just figured out why, I think
01:46 thefamilygrog66 pretty sure it's a global / local issue

02:05 Warr1024 feedback would be welcome
02:07 Warr1024 heh, imgur is not exactly the best platform for those screenshots; it looks like they apply some filters of their own.
02:11 hmmmm looks pretty cool
02:11 Warr1024 thanks
02:11 hmmmm what filters are those?
02:11 Warr1024 unfortunately, the code probably does not
02:12 Warr1024 well, one is a custom box filter over the texture at time of insertion into the cache
02:12 Warr1024 the other one is just doing a simple nearest-neighbor upscale on it
02:12 hmmmm didn't realize you could make your own filters
02:13 Warr1024 they're done on the images before they're sent to the vid card
02:13 Warr1024 so they will work on low-end hardware
02:13 Warr1024 they're also applied only at time of inserting the texture into the cache, so should have no lasting performance impact at play-time
02:13 Warr1024 except for any performance impact caused by using bigger textures, if you enable that option.
02:14 Warr1024 the transparency cleanup is pretty much a freebie though :-)
02:15 Warr1024 this will also resolve #2154 in a way that should make everyone involved in it happy :-)
02:16 paramat yeah i never use MT's filters because IMO they make things look worse
02:18 Warr1024 paramat: you check out that imgur link?  I got 16x textures to look pretty good with filtering on, using a low-end Intel IGP that blurs the hell out of most everything.
02:18 Zeno` joined #minetest
02:19 Warr1024 man, I gotta formulate a pullreq now...
02:19 shadowzone joined #minetest
02:19 Warr1024 it's been so long I'm going to have to read the ettiquette guide.
02:19 Warr1024 hey Zeno` ... that reminds me, I gotta see how this patch performs on android :-)
02:20 Zeno` ok :)
02:20 Warr1024 Zeno`: in case you're interested in what I'm talking about, http://imgur.com/a/hmXmG
02:22 Warr1024 https://github.com/Warr1024/minetest/commit/32a8570ea8dbacfb7ccf09c0ecc565d2204ca5f5
02:22 Zeno` hmm, looks nice!
02:22 Warr1024 (except for the code)
02:23 Warr1024 I'll have to go through the style guide some more
02:23 Warr1024 feel free to pull and mess around with it if you're interested, though.
02:23 Warr1024 I like the look of it on desktop, gonna try an android build next to see how it affects performance.
02:23 Zeno` code looks mostly ok to me :)
02:24 Warr1024 ah, I figured I'd get blasted for indent styles :-)
02:24 Zeno` if( and for( should be if ( and for (
02:24 Zeno` but that's about it
02:24 Warr1024 maybe I should try wrapping those lines a bit more, they horz scroll for me on github
02:24 Zeno` no, that's the indent style we use (not all the code has been updated obviously lol)
02:24 Zeno` oh yeah... some long lines
02:28 Warr1024 https://github.com/minetest/minetest/compare/master...Warr1024:txrprefilter
02:28 MinetestBot [git] ShadowNinja -> minetest/minetest_game: Fix bucket code indentation 794a436 http://git.io/pq0n (2015-03-07T21:26:55-05:00)
02:30 Zeno` heh
02:30 Zeno` only space before the parenthesis
02:30 Zeno` e.g. for (u32 sx = ...
02:31 Zeno` otherwise looks good
02:31 Zeno` so this works ok with mip mapping?
02:32 Zeno` I'll apply the patch later. I was hoping to spend today (mostly) away from minetest for a change :)
02:32 Zeno` apply to my branch for testing I mean
02:32 Warr1024 I went ahead and filed it as #2462.
02:32 Warr1024 it shouldn't be significantly affected by the filtering options you choose from the existing ones
02:33 Warr1024 I tested it with trilinear + mip + aniso
02:33 Zeno` the screenshots are pretty impressive
02:33 Warr1024 thx
02:33 paramat Warr1024 yes i looked, an improvement over current filters, but not something i would use as i'm happy with no filters
02:34 Warr1024 paramat: cool.  I was careful to make these configurable and default-off.
02:35 Warr1024 tbh, I always played no-filters too, but it was mainly because filtered looked like crap
02:35 Warr1024 but this fixes it for me, at least.
02:36 Warr1024 no-filters give you a lot of aliasing noise in the distance.
02:36 Warr1024 mip-only gives you a lot of blurriness on anything angled relative to the camera
02:37 Warr1024 and turning on aniso seems to enable linear filtering on all video cards I've tried, hence there was previously no solution that got EVERYTHING right that I was looking for.
02:38 paramat yes no combination of current filters looks acceptable to me, i decided the aliasing noise was preferable
02:39 Warr1024 maybe someday someone will have a nice shader filter to clean these up, but I'll probably never be able to run it on my hardware.
02:49 shadowzone hai, Zeno`
03:08 Warr1024 got the android build done, time to try it out
03:15 Warr1024 hm, enabling it on android isn't too bad, though it makes the texture seam issues on mine rather visible on weilditems.
03:15 Warr1024 on the other hand, all filters enabled, and no noticeable performance problems.
03:18 harrison joined #minetest
03:18 Warr1024 though it looks like my device actually only does trilinear and not aniso
03:19 ShadowNinja Warr1024: Can you help me test something?
03:20 Warr1024 sure, what kinda something?
03:21 ShadowNinja Warr1024: Checking for a bug.  Connect to my server.
03:21 Warr1024 what is it?
03:21 Warr1024 er the server, not the bug
03:22 ShadowNinja Er, NVM, won't work on my server.  Moment.
03:22 Warr1024 cool
03:25 ShadowNinja Warr1024: horus.inchra.net port 30000
03:25 Warr1024 argh, middle-click does not do X11 paste in MT menu :-)
03:26 Warr1024 Connecting to server...
03:26 Warr1024 seems kind a stuck...?
03:26 ShadowNinja Warr1024: Moment...
03:27 Warr1024 firewall?
03:27 ShadowNinja Warr1024: Nah.  Try now.
03:28 Warr1024 not looking any different so far...
03:29 Warr1024 any way to check to make sure it's not a problem on my end?
03:29 Warr1024 maybe you can confirm that you're getting incoming UDP port 30k packets?
03:30 ShadowNinja Was connected to the wrong network. Try now.
03:31 Warr1024 This server is whitelisted and I'm not on the whitelist
03:31 ShadowNinja Warr1024: ^
03:31 ShadowNinja ...
03:31 ShadowNinja Sorry, I usually don't have this much trouble.
03:31 Warr1024 np
03:31 ShadowNinja Whitelisted.
03:33 Warr1024 in...ish
03:41 Zeno` <ShadowNinja> Sorry, I usually don't have this much trouble.   <--- That's what I used to say to the girls as well
03:41 Zeno` :-o
03:43 * Zeno` idles again
03:43 Warr1024 I filed #2456 as an issue, but I might as well make a pullreq for the proposed fix...

04:15 VanessaE Warr1024: screenshots for 2154 look good.  hope that goes in.  I've been wanting that feature for a while :)
04:16 VanessaE for your fix thereof I mean
04:20 Warr1024 VanessaE: thanks
04:23 Warr1024 it should be pretty easy to merge
04:23 roboman2444 joined #minetest
04:26 Warr1024 as a rule, I limit my modding work to 16x textures
04:26 Warr1024 >16x is, to me, the sole territory of texture pack artists
04:26 Warr1024 except my mods are not popular enough for there to be texture packs
04:27 Warr1024 so making 16x look like it should is pretty key
04:28 Warr1024 there are still visual problems
04:28 Warr1024 with smooth light off, grass looks weird; with it on, nodeboxes look weird.
04:30 LazyJ joined #minetest
04:31 Warr1024 one idea I played with, but haven't yet tried to implement, is pixel-art-specific filters for low-res textures
04:32 Warr1024 like hqx or xBRZ
04:32 Warr1024 it'd be a lot of code, though.

05:37 EnB_ hello?
05:37 VanessaE old version?
05:38 VanessaE why?
05:40 EnB_ i want to try using it in windows. someone told me that the old version works in windows...
05:40 VanessaE (and what do you mean "old version" anyway?  it's a git rolling release I thought)
05:41 VanessaE well it'll work in windows just as well now as it would have before - it depends on luasocket, but the mod code itself is just plain Lua afaict.
05:41 VanessaE mod code is here, https://github.com/kaeza/minetest-irc
05:43 EnB_ do we need to change the package path
05:43 EnB_ *?

06:36 VanessaE yeah, about as excited as I might get over a root canal.
06:36 Zeno` you're one of *those* kinds of people
06:36 Zeno` I had no idea
06:37 VanessaE yeah, the kind that worries about her system not booting and not wanting to have to learn weird new tools just to view a G*d damned log file :P
06:37 Zeno` I have trouble getting excited over root canals, but whatever floats your boat
06:37 VanessaE heh

06:38 Zeno` thrice cooked roast potatoes are being prepared
06:38 Zeno` tonight we shall have a feast!

06:38 Zeno` I made the choccie moose yesterday
06:38 Zeno` kind of ate one already. Had to test it you see
06:39 Zeno` tally ho, back to the kitchen for me
06:39 Zeno` heh
06:42 sofar VanessaE: if you have systemd issues (and you're not using ubuntu or debian) feel free to ask me - I'm one of the people who helped the systemd project a lot.
06:42 ]DMackey[ joined #minetest
06:42 sofar but, tbh, it's quite likely the debian folks will make a mess out of it, it'll be quite a while before people that get it through an update stop screaming like VanessaE just did :)
06:43 VanessaE I use both xubuntu and debian and don't have systemd troubles yet -- because afaik my systems don't yet have that ...suite... installed.
06:43 sofar I'm glad upstart and sysv are dying/dead
06:43 sofar the reliability of my servers has skyrocketed since I've switched to systemd
06:43 VanessaE I likes my /etc/rc.local and you can't take that away from meeeeeeeee
06:43 sofar things restart properly, things get shutdown properly
06:44 sofar eh, it's old rust. some people like old rust
06:44 sofar but then treat it like a museum piece
06:44 sofar don't expect it to go on the road and drive 50k miles a year ;)
06:45 VanessaE maybe I'm just getting too old to go learning yet another new init system :P
06:46 sofar yes, that's indeed quite likely
06:46 * sofar ducks
06:46 VanessaE :P
06:46 sofar in all honesty, the folks at ubuntu are doing a good job, the ones that are left anyway
06:47 sofar the guy who wrote upstart left to work for google
06:47 sofar the guy who followed up after him got hired by me, *grin*
06:49 VanessaE heh
06:54 EndymionM joined #minetest
06:55 EndymionM Hi, strange question, when did drowning disappear, and how can I turn it back on?
06:55 VanessaE er, it should be present in current releases, as long as you're in survival mode and damage is turned on
06:58 EndymionM I am and it is...  and yet when I'm underwater, no bubbles, no drowning
06:58 VanessaE weird
06:58 nore joined #minetest
06:58 EndymionM Very much so.
06:58 VanessaE this is normally game-dependent - I assume your minetest_game is current also?
06:59 EndymionM It's... whatever came with 0.4.12...
06:59 VanessaE that's current.
06:59 VanessaE better file an issue then
06:59 VanessaE https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/new
07:00 VanessaE that's a new-ish one to me -- then again I thought I'd seen someone earlier say that they had some problem with their health bar not updating on item-erat
07:00 VanessaE eat*
07:00 VanessaE might have been in another issue report.
07:01 EndymionM And, as far as mods, I have homedecor_modpack (thank you, btw), mesecons, moreores, moreblocks, carts, compassgps, unifieddyes, and WorldEdit.
07:01 VanessaE it was an issue, https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/2449
07:01 VanessaE (you're welcome :)  )  those mods won't affect that
07:03 EndymionM I'd figured.  Though compassgps slowed me down something fierce, and I switched to just writing coordinates in a book.  And eating hasn't given me trouble, so far as I can tell.  What I may do is try unchecking and rechecking damage, see if that fixes it...
07:06 EndymionM Okay.  That did fix it; still, weird bug... I'll have to see if I can replicate it before I file an issue.  Doesn't do much good if I don't know why it happened.
07:10 EndymionM Oh, and proof that you should be proud of homedecor - one of the big things that converted a friend of mine from buying Minecraft to downloading Minetest was when I showed them my toilet :-P

07:31 devmarth ha
07:32 devmarth I experimented with mapgen_v7.cpp and cavegen.cpp and messed around a bit, and made some really nice map generation. It's really sexy
07:41 devmarth Is there any documentation on travis?
07:42 ShadowNinja ~give devmarth lmgtfy Travis documentation
07:42 ShadowBot devmarth: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Travis%20documentation
07:43 devmarth No, I mean for the uses it has for Minetest.
07:43 devmarth I see it's a compiler or something?
07:43 ShadowNinja devmarth: It's a continuous integration system.
07:44 devmarth I'm currently trying to compile a Windows build on Ubuntu and wanted to see if that helped. I got build bot to work but several (but not all) dlls were missing in the windows build
07:45 devmarth Any advice or knowledge on why that's happening? Or maybe a documentation page or a forum with a similar question?
07:46 ShadowNinja No, I've never successfully build for Windows.
07:46 ShadowNinja Add the DLLs needed to the bin dir.
07:46 devmarth That's gonna have to be a question for sfan5 then. He seems to have a working script for it.
07:47 devmarth I did add them, however one of them needed something inside of them which is kind of weird. So it didn't work out anyways.

13:52 Jordach and no, visual_scale scales the player instead
13:52 * ElectronLibre just understood. Well done Jordach.

13:54 Jordach wooo
13:54 Jordach it fits perfectly

14:16 Krock Jordach, now it's art: http://i.imgur.com/ApgY48E.png
14:18 rubenwardy Krock, would it be possible for you to make a build of the latest master? 0.8.1 XD Does it take long? My computer is so slow that it takes ~ 20 minutes to make a build. (rebooting into Windows, configuring, etc)
14:18 rubenwardy NBE
14:18 Krock NBE takes about 1 - 2 minutes to build here
14:19 Krock sure, gonna compile HEAD
14:19 rubenwardy It's mostly the time it takes to load Windows for me.
14:21 Krock rubenwardy, and how's the 0.8.1 version called?
14:21 rubenwardy zip file name?
14:22 rubenwardy I forgot to change the version string in CMakeLists :(
14:22 Krock yes, I meant that version sring
14:22 rubenwardy Glass again.
14:22 rubenwardy All 0.X have the same names
14:22 rubenwardy So 0.8.1 Glass
14:23 rubenwardy 0.8.X is a patch :)
14:23 Jordach http://a.pomf.se/xrnnsb.png :D

14:42 Krock Jordach, you broke the system. That's ont 1x1 px
14:42 Krock *not
14:42 Jordach Krock, crafting is 3x3 (x3) voxels
14:42 hmmmm left #minetest
14:42 Krock oh yes, the tools are something like 4x4
14:42 Jordach there are several 3x3 textures in use to signify crafted materials
14:43 Jordach Krock, tools are 3x3
14:43 Krock until now, it's just a texture pack :P
14:44 Jordach eventually, ingot blocks, furnaces, stairs and slabs will become harder to craft
14:44 Jordach because you'll need to assemble them into a 3d shape
14:47 Krock make the crafting grid 4x4 and it's getting funny

14:54 Warr1024 if you want to stay true to the strict "voxel" concept, you could replace the "rails" node with a "rail" node
14:55 Jordach Warr1024, i would, but performance issues when there's lots of rails nearby :)
14:57 Warr1024 performance in what sense?  Figuring out the interconnections, or for figuring out how to actually travel on them?
14:57 Warr1024 if you had a "single rail" node, you could use a 1x1 texture so it wouldn't need any interconnect logic
14:58 Warr1024 the hard part would be if you wanted some vehicle to travel along them, it'd have to either be a monorail vehicle (and have difficulty with intersections) or ride between 2 rails and have to do a bit of logic each node-length it traveled.
14:58 Jordach Warr1024, that's why i kept it to rail like
14:59 Warr1024 it might not be so bad, though.
14:59 Warr1024 it might mean that your railways are wider, and your intersections are larger
14:59 Warr1024 but that was one of the things about MC that always bugged me, with their blocks getting more and more complex
15:00 Warr1024 but the beauty of the game was its malleability and uniformity at the block level
15:00 Warr1024 so you can't take apart these more complex blocks and change how they work.
15:01 Warr1024 breaking it up into a 3-wide rail, cross-tie, rail set instead of a 1-wide "rails" node could be interesting, and might actually have performance benefits too, and make a player think more when designing railways...
15:01 Jordach Warr1024, basically, if it has one crafting step, the texture is 2x2, if it has many and or a 3d object, it's 3x3
15:01 Warr1024 you're basically JUST doing a texture pack right now?
15:01 Jordach Warr1024, crafting will get modifed
15:02 Warr1024 or is this going to be a mod or game?
15:02 Jordach stairs are no longer cheap to make
15:03 Jordach but right now it will be a basic level fork of MTG utilising design instead of graphics
15:04 Warr1024 sounds pretty neat
15:04 Ataron joined #minetest
15:04 Warr1024 I always wondered if it'd be possible to get rid of the crafting grid
15:04 Jordach it's not meant to follow realism
15:04 Warr1024 one idea was to craft a crafting table by preparing a flat 3x3 surface, then just place your items on it physically
15:05 Warr1024 everything would have to be node, then...
15:12 Jordach hm, so is this the correct args for minetestserver " ./minetestserver --gameid vox --worldname vox --port 30001 "
15:13 Krock you specify the gameid?
15:13 Jordach yes
15:13 Krock I thought that's in world.mt
15:13 rubenwardy You don't need to if it's in world.mt
15:13 rubenwardy ^^
15:13 Krock ninja'd
15:13 rubenwardy But doesn't matter
15:14 rubenwardy I use ./minetest --server --worldname test1 because I build with -DBUILD_SERVER=0

16:40 srifqi good evening, any people around here?
16:41 est31 seems so, dont ask to ask just ask pls :P
16:43 srifqi okay, sorry
16:43 srifqi so, what minetest do you use? (version)
16:44 Calinou latest Git
16:44 srifqi lastest?
16:44 srifqi woah,
16:45 VanessaE est31:  //reset
16:45 VanessaE that'll get rid of the selection box, or it's supposed to anyway
16:46 barrydk joined #minetest
16:46 est31 VanessaE, the selection boxes got removed by another player's worldedit //set air invocation, now only the planes remain
16:46 est31 no way to manually remove them?
16:47 VanessaE enclose them in a larger selection area and do //clearobjects (two slashes) ?
16:47 VanessaE however, //set shouldn't be able to affect those, they're entities
16:48 VanessaE check your logs, see if the server is throwing "suspiciously large amount of objects, forcing delete" messages
16:48 VanessaE or "already contains X objects, forcing delete"
16:49 VanessaE those are the only way those selection box images should ever be removed aside from //set and //reset

17:04 srifqi *REALLY
17:05 VanessaE this is the official minetest IRC
17:05 VanessaE there is also a network and channel for some servers
17:05 srifqi how about another?
17:05 VanessaE irc.inchra.net #minetest
17:05 srifqi can you tell 'em?
17:05 VanessaE but it's not a general chat channel as such
17:06 srifqi let me see
17:08 MinetestBot [git] nerzhul -> minetest/minetest: Fix unitialized data when creating TOSERVER_INIT packet 57d86cf http://git.io/pOPm (2015-03-08T18:03:43+01:00)
17:08 est31 VanessaE, what is the worldedit //copy command supposed to do?
17:09 est31 I want to move one region from A to b
17:09 VanessaE just what it sounds like :)
17:09 est31 what is the ? for?
17:09 est31 and what is // ?stack
17:09 VanessaE ? refers to your current facedir
17:09 est31 //stack *
17:10 VanessaE (as opposed to specifying exactly X, Y, or Z)
17:10 est31 yes
17:10 VanessaE //stack is if you want to make several copies at equal intervals
17:10 VanessaE for example, if you select a region 10x10x10 and you tell it, //stack x 5
17:10 VanessaE it'll make 5 more copies along the X axis, spanning 50 nodes
17:12 VanessaE whereas //copy just makes a single copy at the target location, e.g.  //copy x 5 would make one copy of the region, with the target location set to {original X+5, original Y, original Z}
17:12 srifqi is #minetest-mods running?
17:12 VanessaE that channel exists but is not used much
17:13 srifqi so, what it used to be?
17:13 VanessaE it was used for modding discussion
17:14 srifqi so, i can ask about modding related there?
17:15 srifqi and, how about discussing a pr to minetest?
17:15 MinetestBot [git] nerzhul -> minetest/minetest: Fix memleak pointed by issue #2439. 3ae16f1 http://git.io/pO12 (2015-03-08T18:13:27+01:00)
17:18 VanessaE srifqi: just ask here.
17:18 VanessaE you're unlikely to get a response in -mods
17:18 VanessaE because there's usually no one there :P
17:18 srifqi you're too, XD
17:20 srifqi VanessaE: how to add a label at Minetest main menu?
17:21 srifqi see rubenwardy's screenshot at #1990
17:21 VanessaE no idea :P
17:21 srifqi :(
17:21 VanessaE I don't know the main menu code.
17:22 srifqi okay, so, you know who can i ask to?
17:22 VanessaE someone in here should be able to answer, but I'm not sure who to ask.
17:23 srifqi is sapier use this irc?
17:23 srifqi sapier = the creator of mainmenu AFAIK
17:24 VanessaE he can occasionally be found here, but not much lately.
17:24 srifqi oh,
17:26 est31 srifqi, I guess its not minetest origin
17:26 est31 but added after the screenshot was made
17:26 est31 image editor like gimp
17:26 est31 or adobe something
17:27 srifqi yes, but how to code
17:27 srifqi ?
17:27 est31 mainmenu is done by formspec
17:28 srifqi and how to costumize main menu?
17:28 VanessaE srifqi: learn Lua :P
17:29 est31 and read the docs
17:29 srifqi VanessaE: already learned
17:29 srifqi except the docs, still learning
17:29 est31 srifqi, http://rubenwardy.com/minetest_modding_book/chapters/formspecs.html
17:29 srifqi okay,
17:30 srifqi i mean i can't find any formspec that add subgame logo at singleplayer tab
17:31 est31 thats a bad idea
17:31 est31 I think it should be somewhere in the settings tab
17:31 est31 language is no subgame
17:31 est31 and the top right corner also isnt a good place
17:32 fz72 VanessaE: I was testing on your creative server. Your right there are these errors.
17:32 VanessaE fz72: the http stuff?  it's normal there.  ignore them.
17:33 VanessaE the thing about index.mth should be rewritten to say something like "index.mth not found, using flat-directory method"
17:33 VanessaE or something similar
17:33 VanessaE rather than implying it's an error
17:33 fz72 No the others. Sometimes there is nothing of the map and map doesn't load correct.
17:33 VanessaE and media files not being found should be "foo.png not found on remote media server, fetching from minetest server instance instead" or so.
17:34 VanessaE fz72: ohhh right
17:34 fz72 Maybe it's something with my internet 64 kbyte downstream -.-
17:34 VanessaE fz72: any chance you can replicate these errors on some other servers also?
17:35 fz72 Maybe. I will test other servers.

19:36 devmarth do you mind, helping me with a windows build? i have successfully created an ubuntu build but buildbot.sh didnt work
19:36 devmarth well it did, but dll's were missing
19:37 devmarth you said on a forum you would help people, so i wanted to ask :P
19:37 Tux[Qyou] joined #minetest
19:38 sfan5 which DLLs are missing?
19:38 devmarth maybe you have a seperate buildbot script that installs all the dependencies or one better than the one provided at /util/
19:38 devmarth I cant remember which ones, but I manually added them which didnt work
19:38 devmarth I deleted the build
19:39 sfan5 if you tell me which ones are missing i can help you
19:39 devmarth i really cant
19:40 devmarth Can you just help me from scratch?
19:40 sfan5 i don't have a buildbot that's "better" than the official buildbot script
19:40 devmarth Do you have one that installs all dependencies needed
19:40 sfan5 you mean the dependencies on the host system?
19:41 devmarth The things i need to successfully compile it for windows
19:41 devmarth on ubuntu
19:41 sfan5 no
19:41 devmarth what?
19:41 sfan5 all you need is mingw
19:41 devmarth Okay, so "sudo apt-get install mingw32"?
19:42 sfan5 sudo apt-get install mingw-w64
19:42 devmarth isnt that just for 64 bit? i need a 32 bit build
19:42 TheBonsai joined #minetest
19:42 devmarth ok so after i get this, just run the buildbot script?
19:43 sfan5 mingw-w64 is for both 32 and 64 bit
19:43 devmarth Okay, good.
19:43 sfan5 after that you probably need to tweak two files and then you can run the buildbot
19:43 devmarth Tweak which files?
19:43 devmarth I already edited some files to clone the scripts from my repo (a forked repo)
19:44 sfan5 toolchain_mingw.cmake
19:44 devmarth Alright, what modifications do i need to make
19:46 sfan5 one moment
19:47 devmarth ok

19:49 est31 sfan5, you have an idea why my travis android PR is sometimes failin?
19:49 devmarth already looks like that
19:49 devmarth so im good
19:50 sfan5 est31: nope, i don't know why the compiler might fail internally
19:51 devmarth thanks sfan5
19:51 sfan5 est31: it would be good if you could remove the swap stuff so other people (and me) can see the error in the travis log

20:30 devmarth alright sfan5, instead of u downloading this and seeing the problem, can you just send me your buildbot script you use and ill modify it? because mine has literally no dll's, just an exe
20:31 devmarth seems quicker to do that, but its up to you
20:31 whtemple1959 joined #minetest
20:31 sfan5 devmarth: i use the official buildbot script
20:31 est31 devmarth, there is a cross compile script in the util/travis/script.sh file
20:32 devmarth So, if i run that on Ubuntu, itll make a windows script?
20:32 devmarth windows build*
20:33 sfan5 est31: that script does some things you might not want to do on your system (such as just downloading something and unpacking it to / instead of installing a correct package)
20:33 sfan5 <devmarth> how many mbps are u getting?
20:33 sfan5 I'm getting 15 KB/s
20:33 devmarth Wow.
20:34 sfan5 can you give me the output of the build script instead?
20:34 est31 sfan5, is there another "official" build script`
20:34 est31 s/`/?/
20:34 sfan5 est31: what do you mean?
20:34 devmarth i could if i didnt leave the OS afterwards

20:35 whtemple1959 hello room, I am using version 0.4.12-dev, I have been sorting out the nuances of the game for a few weeks and find it most intriguing and frustating at the same time. I have 3 questions 1) is there a public server for children under 13? 2) is there a way to move a slab from the bottom of a node to the top of a node? 3) how do I load my world with animals and npc from the animals modpack?
20:36 est31 1) idk 2) you have to face up when placing, you can change it for placed nodes with a screwdriver 3) do you have an error, or ask how to install a mod?

20:37 sfan5 devmarth: uh...
20:38 devmarth sfan5; hm?
20:38 sfan5 devmarth: the current combination of code you have in the repo violates the LGPL
20:39 devmarth how so?
20:40 sfan5 you can't combine Freeminers GPL code and Minetests LGPL code
20:40 devmarth i did not do that
20:41 sfan5 src/log_types.cpp
20:41 devmarth OH, i know what it is
20:41 devmarth yeah
20:41 devmarth and mapgen_indev.cpp
20:41 sfan5 correct
20:41 devmarth those scripts arent used and can be deleted without any damage
20:41 devmarth i added them to test something and forgot to delete it when i pushed it
20:41 devmarth ill delete em now
20:42 devmarth what other files have to be deleted?
20:42 devmarth i forget, but the freeminer code was a test and can be deleted without any issue
20:42 sfan5 anyway
20:43 sfan5 i have no idea why it would fail to copy the DLLs
20:43 devmarth ill look through later
20:43 sfan5 but doing s/minetest/blokel/ everywhere might cause problems
20:43 devmarth can you try building it for me and see if you get dll's
20:43 devmarth what?
20:44 sfan5 you changed (almost) every "Minetest" to blokel
20:44 devmarth Yeah
20:44 sfan5 that can cause problems
20:44 devmarth Where should I go to fix that? I was also looking to make it execute blokel.exe
20:44 devmarth so this may help other things too
20:45 sfan5 i don't know what exactly you could do to fix this
20:45 devmarth what other files say Minetest?
20:46 devmarth Should I just go through every file and change everything to Blokel?
20:46 sfan5 i don't know whether that would fix it
20:46 devmarth try compiling it for windows and see if the dll's work for you if u have time
20:47 sfan5 nah
20:48 devmarth damn ok
20:48 devmarth I think I have an idea of how to fix this actually
20:49 devmarth maybe in CMakeLists i should change project(blokel) to project(minetest)
20:51 est31 I guess doing a large find . -exec sed -i s/minetest/blokel/g {} and then some mv tricks would work in theory

23:18 Megaf_ Hi everyone
23:19 Megaf_ Take a look!  https://github.com/dibyendumajumdar/ravi/blob/master/README.rst
23:20 est31 who needs static typing?
23:20 est31 it bloats up your lang
23:20 Megaf_ It uses llvm
23:20 Megaf_ =/
23:21 Megaf_ That's good, isn't it?
23:21 est31 we have luaJIT
23:22 est31 but agree it needs something that is maintained
23:22 est31 I'm just a bit sad that c55 doesnt like v8
23:44 est31 this crash happened on 0.4.12 server: http://pastebin.com/gyEbAhJv
23:44 est31 only did //pos2
