Dont add vehicle mods unless u dont mind cleaning up 100s of em 02:40 waressearcher2 RichardTheTurd: you need a mod that cleans vehicles 02:41 RichardTheTurd I dont like to use those though as it removes the legit vehicle. 02:41 RichardTheTurd ex. car dealerships 03:04 FreeFull waressearcher2: How do you increase fps? 03:11 waressearcher2 I think I will wait till monday 03:18 RichardTheTurd FreeFull: add wanted_fps = 120 and fps_max = 300 to your minetest.conf file 03:18 FreeFull Well, it's not as if my screen refreshes at more than 60Hz anyway 03:18 RichardTheTurd I just do that to allow more CPU utilization 03:19 RichardTheTurd It seemed to increase FPS for me 03:19 waressearcher2 how can you endure 60Hz, 75Hz is minimum 03:19 waressearcher2 RichardTheTurd: I looked at source code there is "sleep(25)" for menu code so its like 40fps in menu 03:20 RichardTheTurd I get 90+ FPS and I use a 60Hz panel. Though I do use FXAA aswell 03:20 waressearcher2 who needs FXAA in minetest its not crysis 03:21 RichardTheTurd I use MSAA via Nvidia Control Panel 03:21 RichardTheTurd aswell 03:22 waressearcher2 by the way what is FXAA and MSAA are they some fancy Anty Aliasing ? 03:22 RichardTheTurd yup 03:22 waressearcher2 you can't alias cubes 03:22 RichardTheTurd MSAA = MultiSample Anti-Aliasing 03:22 RichardTheTurd FXAA = Gotta google 03:23 RichardTheTurd Fast Approximate Anti-Aliasing 03:23 waressearcher2 I mean really textures are low resolution, everything made of cubes, why do you need fancy anti aliasing ? 03:24 RichardTheTurd Gets rid of the jagged edges and the fuzz 05:05 swift110-phone Hey all 06:52 Megaf Hi swift110-phone 06:52 Megaf Hi all 06:52 Krock hi 06:53 Megaf Krock: you always get up that early? 06:54 Krock No, the phone interrupted my sweet dreams 06:54 Krock couldn't sleep anymore after that 06:57 Megaf oh, how sad! 06:57 Megaf Today I remembered to turn my phones volume off 06:58 Megaf So I could sleep :) 06:58 Megaf Hi est31 06:58 est31 hi Megaf ! 06:58 Megaf This is kinda nice http://9gag.com/gag/aEzDq4e 06:58 Krock Megaf, repeat your sentence now :P 06:58 Megaf !title 06:58 Megaf Krock: heh, but i don't know est31's timezone 06:59 Krock It's the same as mine I guess 07:00 Krock I like that #6 on 9gag 07:00 Megaf so do I 07:01 Krock missing author in #20 07:01 Megaf est31: I just asked Krock if the always get up that early, so, do you always get up that early? 07:01 est31 I got up today at 4 AM 07:01 est31 so that I can see a red moon 07:01 Megaf oh 07:01 * est31 german 07:01 Megaf est31: and did you see it? 07:01 est31 yes xD 07:02 Megaf !server Apocalypse 07:02 Megaf Server located in Germany, Frankfurt ^ 07:02 est31 lol 07:02 Megaf (But there is no bot to show that) 07:02 Megaf est31: and how was it? 07:03 Megaf I completely forgot about the red moon, I'm in Dublin, I think I could have seen it 07:03 est31 cool, not completely red though 07:03 Megaf Krock: #10 and #14 are missing 07:03 Krock oh lol 07:03 est31 one part red, small stripe still white 07:06 Krock MinetestBot! 07:07 Krock I miss you! 07:07 * Krock punches sfan5: MTB left us, please bring it back :) 07:11 Krock [off] Statistics of the ~760 last mod search queries: http://pastebin.com/7LYTKQjR (MTB requests excluded, choosen randomly) 07:49 Calinou https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=57&p=192838#p192838 07:50 Calinou Thank god we have a topic bumper! 07:52 VanessaE Oh G*d. 07:53 Calinou VanessaE, I once saw a exact 10 year bump on the Cube Engine forums 07:53 VanessaE heh 07:56 CWz hey VanessaE 07:57 VanessaE hi 09:02 JamesTait Good morning all; happy Monday, and happy Drink Beer Day! 😃 09:11 est31 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUVwR0rw5fk 09:11 VanessaE haha 09:12 VanessaE if it weren't so early I'd crack open the bottle of wine in the fridge :) 09:12 Krock ^^ 09:25 JamesTait VanessaE, I have the same problem.

I wish it were Sunday. That's my fun day. My I-don't-have-to-run day. 14:03 est31 wait a bit, it will turn up to be sunday eventually again 14:03 waressearcher2 its 00:01am tuesday 14:05 waressearcher2 so what I was sayng, there is a way to increase fps in minetest 14:05 waressearcher2 all you have to do is give developers "Pentium I", with 32MB RAM, that way you force them to write efficient code or they have to suffer 0.01fps framerate 14:06 Teckla waressearcher2: fwiw, on my daughter's 6-year-old Core 2 Duo laptop with midrange era appropriate discrete graphics (nVIDIA), Minetest outperforms Minecraft nicely, in the graphics department. 14:06 Teckla It's still a little slow and laggy (thus I'm getting her a new laptop for xmas), but it's usable. 14:06 waressearcher2 remember that game "elite" ? they said if it took tham entire day to optimise and save couple of bytes of memory it was worth it 14:07 waressearcher2 them 14:08 est31 they are developers 14:08 est31 developers are the idiots who argue about single bytes lol 14:08 waressearcher2 or "Commander Keen", Carmac did impossible at the time he made mario-level graphics work on 1991 year PCs, and it was a feet 14:08 waressearcher2 of course that way you can also discourage them programming at all 14:09 Teckla All that being said, I think free software/open source, differentiates itself the best, when it writes really high performance software, so I would certainly encourage developers to really optimize the heck out of performance 14:09 waressearcher2 I mean there are all sorts of good examples where developers did cared about optimisation 14:10 Teckla est31: Only some developers do that 14:10 Teckla I used to use Linux on the desktop precisely because it enabled me to use hardware for a longer period of time compared to, for example, Windows, which tended to get slower with each release 14:10 waressearcher2 also it is weird how minecraft requires quite good PC, not considering how profitable it is, they could've use some money to get it work even on 10 years old PCs 14:11 Teckla I ended up dropping Linux on the desktop when the "popular" desktop distros started getting fat and slow and actually underperformed compared to Windows :( 14:11 waressearcher2 Teckla: you haven't tryed DSL 14:11 est31 you cant do that Teckla 14:11 est31 the year of linux on the desktop will come 14:12 waressearcher2 it can work even on PII 14:12 Teckla waressearcher2: I've used DSL. 14:12 Teckla est31: haha 14:12 waressearcher2 est31: but it will be just one year 14:12 Teckla waressearcher2: Well, I did say "popular" desktop Linux distros for a reason, heh 14:13 waressearcher2 you can make ubuntu fast if you don't run X 14:13 est31 you can run linux entirely out of your RAM then its blazingly fast 14:13 est31 like a livecd 14:13 Teckla I spent a few decades getting into the whole "tweaking" thing, now I want stuff to Just Work. 14:14 est31 hope snappy makes that easy 14:14 waressearcher2 its not about "popular desktop Linux distros" its about overbloated software with fancy features that no one yet optimised for performance 14:14 est31 and its about rewriting the same thing over and over again 14:15 est31 every release, KDE is rewritten, and, KDE KDE has new bugs 14:15 est31 s/KDE KDE/KDE/ 14:16 waressearcher2 there are always *box windows managers 14:16 waressearcher2 like "fluxbox" and others 14:16 waressearcher2 but the crappy thing is if you say want to run KDE application its the same as using KDE itself, it will consume a lot of RAM anyway by loading all those kdelibs 14:17 waressearcher2 they really should separate "k" software from KDE 14:18 Teckla Ideally I want a "popular" desktop Linux distro that I know will Just Work and be upgraded and well supported, which works fast "out of the box", without having to futz around installing alternative window managers and such 14:18 Teckla ...and a pony. I want a pony. For free 14:18 waressearcher2 that is not gonna happen 14:18 Teckla waressearcher2: Sadly, it *was* happening for a while 14:18 waressearcher2 I mean linux that is Just Work 14:19 waressearcher2 it will always be in "development" state 14:19 Teckla Back when Ubuntu came by default with GNOME 2, it ran really, really well, even on my older hardware, so I used that for a number of years 14:19 waressearcher2 thats the differentce from "proprietary" stuff 14:19 Teckla When they switched to Unity, it got much slower, and uglier (imo), and I stopped using it 14:20 est31 I switched to kubuntu before ubuntu switched to unity 14:20 waressearcher2 those companies they need to "show off" that theyr product is "ready" that is why they number them with whole number like "1.0,2.5" instead of "0.1.5-dev", after all they earn money from it and they want more money 14:20 Teckla est31: How is KDE's performance these days? I did try KDE years back, but at the time, it was even slower and fatter than Windows 14:21 Teckla So far, Xubuntu seems nice, I'm running that in a VM, just to evaluate it. 14:22 est31 Teckla, I can't really compare I only have KDE but for me its fine 14:22 est31 4GB RAM and mobile intel processor 14:23 est31 intel N3520 14:23 est31 2.1 ghz pentium 14:24 est31 sometimes it freezes when I have too many applications open 14:24 est31 then I have to sysrq 14:24 est31 it might be because I have no swap 14:24 est31 but filling 4 GB isnt easy 14:24 est31 most times it happens when I compile something BIG 14:25 Teckla est31: Sounds good 14:26 Krock est31, play minetest with a 1024px texture pack 14:27 SylvieLorxu Teckla: From my experience, it's faster than Windows and getting better. I think it's slightly faster than GNOME3 now 14:27 SylvieLorxu I may be a bit biased, though 14:27 SylvieLorxu Because I am just a KDE fangirl :P 14:27 est31 Krock, no way 14:35 waressearcher2 SylvieLorxu: kgirl 14:35 est31 kate! 14:35 SylvieLorxu Heh 14:52 waressearcher2 anyone knows if that No Man's Sky will be released this year ? 14:54 Krock ask #nomanssky if existent 14:55 waressearcher2 not yeat 15:02 Teckla SylvieLorxu: Good to know, thanks :) 15:23 Krock [off] "BUT I USE WINDOWS! I DONT HAVE A MAC ADRESSS!!11" 15:25 CWz ^ lol 15:25 Krock I know, this guy wasn't serious but it's still funny 15:26 est31 HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT I AM 13 ONLY FROM WHAT I AM WRITEING????!!! 15:26 est31 favourite bash.org quote 15:26 Krock xD 15:27 est31 --> http://bash.org/?14207 15:27 Krock I DOES WRITE CORECT ENGISH !!1!one!!one1 15:27 Krock est31, great quote, the bookmark collection got extended 15:32 Krock Browing on bash.org and found other great quotes, such as http://bash.org/?400459 16:00 bas080 I was wondering what the concensus is on soft depending and checking in the lua if a mod exists or not. 16:00 bas080 Someone send me this commit and I want to give him advice on how register a craft only when a mod is there 16:00 bas080 *is installed 16:02 bas080 VanessaE: Do you have an example for me? I have done it before but i can't seem to remember how and where 16:02 bas080 VanessaE: I see you have used if minetest.get_modpath("intllib") then 16:05 bas080 I'll tell him he can use that. 16:08 est31 there is no real consensus 16:08 est31 previously everybody checked for the global to exist for the mod 16:09 est31 then sb added warning log messages when you access a global 16:09 est31 so then people chose rawgeti, others get_modpath 16:10 bas080 est31: i was considering using get modnames but then you need to write a function for checking if a value is in a list 16:12 est31 get_modpath should be ok I think 16:12 est31 many people use it 16:29 Krock http://bash.org/?7936 16:30 waressearcher2 so no one need quotes of ancient philosophers or scientists or notable people 16:31 Krock Yes. 16:31 * CWz hopes that armor never gets added to minetest_game 16:32 * Krock wonders why 16:32 waressearcher2 it will be more minecraft ? 16:32 waressearcher2 armor protects you 16:32 waressearcher2 why not 16:33 * Krock suggests sfan5 to add a !quote command for a random quote like this one: http://bash.org/?3936 16:33 sfan5 nah 16:33 Krock k, then not. 17:24 Teckla CraigyDavi: Just a quick heads up, server is down, heh 17:27 freelikegnu Teckla: I've been using xubuntu for a couple years and very happy 17:28 freelikegnu have 5 machines at home running it 17:28 freelikegnu and its my linux vm distro of choise 17:29 freelikegnu especially since thunar can now browse ssh 17:29 freelikegnu sftp I mean 17:30 Teckla freelikegnu: Super glad to hear that since that's what I decided to install :) 17:30 Teckla I really like Xfce's "traditional" desktop look and feel. 17:31 freelikegnu yup, its all very sensible... I'd like to try getting mints blueberry bluetooth working in it 17:32 comradmax does minetest have a setting to stretch in fullscreen mode? 17:32 Calinou comradmax, stretch? 17:32 freelikegnu bluetooth manager is ok... but I think bluetooth has always been a sorespot in most distros 17:32 Calinou you can use fullscreen = 1, screenW and screenH of your choice 17:32 Calinou either way, I would really not want to play in non-native resolution... 17:33 freelikegnu Calinou: this makes me think of having some kind of retro crt filter from MT 17:33 comradmax my monitor is 1920x1200, i set screenW/H to something lower, like 960x600. in fullscreen=1 the actual minetest window is only part of my monitor 17:34 comradmax i think i can change my system resolution to 960x600, and then fullscreen will take up all of it. i was just wondering if there is a setting, so i dont have to change system resolution :) 17:34 Teckla comradmax: Do you use 960x600 to get better performance? 17:34 comradmax yes 17:35 freelikegnu that is pretty low res... what kind of hardware are you running on>? 17:35 Calinou Minetest looks too good, let's make it look like this https://lut.im/AEPcpA6uNj/F1nwos5S.png 17:36 Calinou I challenge you to play this in 1920x1080 or 3840x2160 :p 17:37 comradmax i get 13-40 fps at the native 1920x1200, it's not horrible, but i was trying to get super smooth fps all the time:) i have amd quadcore with apu, and a radeon 6670 gpu. it's the one that matches the internal apu 17:37 Calinou lol 6670 17:37 Calinou (and more generally, lol AMD) 17:38 comradmax yea, this card was $60 new tho:) 17:38 comradmax if i did already buy this one, i would have gotten nvidia 17:38 comradmax i got the gpu cuz it had the most vram for the $. i was crashing with more than 3 planets in PA :) 17:39 Calinou who needs accelerated 3D anyway? the game I posted above works fine without it! 17:39 Calinou (-: 17:39 Calinou (that's why it's slow as hell whenever you approach a transparent surface) 17:40 comradmax what's that, gldoom or something like that? 17:40 freelikegnu hmm what drivers are you using comradmax 17:40 Teckla Calinou: AMD is bad? (I guess I should be happy I have nVIDIA?) 17:42 Calinou Teckla, it's 1. dying on the CPU front, 2. stagnating on the GPU front 17:43 Calinou comradmax, Odamex 17:43 comradmax freelikegnu: whatever ubuntu 15 has for it, i did not do anything beyond installing minetest to run it 17:43 Calinou with Freedoom Phase 1 17:43 Teckla Calinou: Oh dear :( That's not good, if only because competition is good 17:43 freelikegnu hmm 17:44 Calinou Teckla, well, Intel is the lonely leader in CPUs, and NVIDIA in GPUs 17:44 Calinou both have ~80% market share now 17:44 Teckla Calinou: Yeah, that kind of dominance can't be good for competition 17:45 comradmax did anyone buy out AMD yet? microsoft? 17:46 freelikegnu looks like amd northern islands (r6670) support is still a bit incomplete with the foss drivers 17:46 freelikegnu http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/RadeonFeature/ 17:46 freelikegnu maybe you would have better luck with catalyst? 17:47 Calinou lol, suggesting Catalyst in 2015 17:47 Calinou prepare for a wreck 17:48 nm0i Nvidia cards have weak chances of being bridged into qemu. But thats as far as I'd go in defending ATI/AMD. 17:48 comradmax freelikegnu: most of the boxes say Done, it's not that bad 17:49 freelikegnu Calinou: guess I take for granted the nvidia drivers 17:49 comradmax but im guessing i dont get any dual gpu benefit on linux :( 17:49 freelikegnu but maybe this will help comradmax https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD?action=show&redirect=BinaryDriverHowto%2FATI 17:50 Calinou dual GPU is a dead pony :) 17:50 Calinou except if you want to drive a lot of screens 17:50 Calinou most free games don't handle SLI anyway 17:50 comradmax my entire pc cost me $450 total :) 17:51 freelikegnu nvidia has been a pain at times as well, 3D graphics IsHard 17:51 comradmax freelikegnu: thank you, i will try that driver 17:52 freelikegnu all I know is minetest is a good performer on even older slower hardware 17:52 freelikegnu so I'm sure there is hope 17:53 freelikegnu it fucking irrlicht for the love of benji 17:53 comradmax im unhappy about getting 13-40 fps on 1920x1200, there is no hope:) 17:53 Calinou Irrlicht is barely maintained, freelikegnu :P 17:54 freelikegnu Calinou: does that mean it is demanding on hardware? 17:54 Calinou no, it is not 17:54 Calinou but it's also very limited 17:55 freelikegnu Calinou: I'm no prgrammer, but it seems that irrlicht is not the bottleneck in MT for performance 17:56 Calinou there are bottlenecks in MT itself 17:56 freelikegnu though it makes me wonder if opencl could be utilized form map generation 17:56 comradmax i thought my amd would be beastmode in minetest 17:57 Calinou it would require hardware support - that's plain insane 17:57 Calinou not everyone has good, proper OpenCL support 17:57 comradmax opencl is great, i wish AMD had it working on 6670, but i was just shit out of luck. their next gen after 6670 has good opencl 17:57 Calinou (especially free/libre drivers or old graphics cards) 17:58 freelikegnu It kinda sounded like you were suggesting MT be played on an nvidia anyways just a minute ago 18:00 Calinou no, we should welcome people regardless of their hardware 18:00 Calinou no game developer will force their users to have a NVIDIA card intentionally :P 18:01 freelikegnu It looks as though there is opencl for intel, amd and nvidia gpus that have been made in a past few years 18:01 Calinou does it work in Nouveau? does it work in Radeon? does it work in the Intel Windows driver? 18:05 freelikegnu I dunno the buzzword sounded cool and "OpenCL will save us all" and all that 18:05 Calinou yeah... no 18:05 Calinou OpenCL is mostly a fail so far 18:05 Calinou it's what we call a "four" or a "bide" here :) 18:05 freelikegnu looks as though GIMP may be supporting it 18:06 Calinou those are "workstation" or "creative" apps 18:06 Calinou not games 18:06 freelikegnu MT is on my workstation and I find I am most creative when interacting with it! 18:07 freelikegnu speaking of being creative with MT, whats up with Carbone?! 18:07 Krock leveled up to Carbone NG 18:07 freelikegnu yes I meant Carbone-NG 18:07 Calinou university started :( 18:08 Calinou I'll try to update it 18:08 freelikegnu you can't have university without a creative way to procrastinate 18:09 freelikegnu I nearlly dropped out of univeristy modding a dungeon crawler 18:10 Calinou freelikegnu, there, just pushed an upstream update 18:10 Calinou :) 18:10 freelikegnu so I left that community behind and now I have a piece of paper that says that I is haz teh smarts 18:10 freelikegnu wont make that mistake again! 18:11 Calinou this degree lasts 2 years 18:11 Calinou then there is the possibility to have a 3rd year 18:12 waressearcher2 freelikegnu: "modding a dungeon crawler", what is it ? 18:12 waressearcher2 a game ? 18:13 freelikegnu niceone! 18:13 freelikegnu waressearcher2: it was dungeon siege 18:14 waressearcher2 heard of it 18:14 waressearcher2 don't do rpg 18:15 freelikegnu theres not a whole lotta rp in that g 18:15 MintUser hola 18:15 freelikegnu its really more of a pretty hack and slash 18:16 waressearcher2 or I mistaken it with "neverwinter night" 18:16 freelikegnu quite 18:16 freelikegnu this is like candyland compared to DnD 18:19 freelikegnu It dirves my nuts everytime I hear a science podcast on education and someone brings up Minecraft in the classroom...:P 18:23 comradmax someone teaches science with minecraft? 18:24 Calinou it's quite silly IMO 18:24 Calinou regardless of age 18:32 CWz who would use a game as an education tool anyways 18:34 Krock but tetris... 18:35 STHGOM game == fun | school == not fun | game + school == fun, but not. 18:36 sd1001 School doesn't have to be not fun 18:36 Calinou nobody at uni that I know plays Minetest, or any other free game :( 18:37 * twoelk joins quickly to raise the flag foir playing at school an learning while doing so 18:38 Krock STHGOM, don't mess up bitwise and boolean operations 18:38 Krock '|' is a bitwise operator 18:40 twoelk 'watomic' for example shows chemistry can be puzzling fun 18:41 STHGOM sd1001, yes ik :). Krock, i was just using that as a separator. (im not really much of a coder) 18:42 Krock STHGOM, I know. Just pointing out that every code you write can be analyzed very complicated 18:43 Calinou do you have an easy-to-understand tutorial on bitwise operators? 18:43 Calinou I don't understand what those are :( 18:44 Krock Calinou, how can't you understand them? Just learn what a OR and an AND gate do 18:44 Krock But for tutorials... google is your bad friend. Usae Duckduckgo 18:45 * Krock qickly adds "bad" and "Use Duckduckgo" afterwards 18:50 Calinou I saw someone at uni using DuckDuckGo 18:50 Krock \o/ 18:50 Calinou Krock, I know about OR/AND gates. but don't bitwise operators work on binary numbers? 18:51 Krock Calinou, the OR/AND functions ('|', '&') are used on every single bit 18:51 Krock so '0x01 | 0x10' results as 0x11 18:53 Krock Oh, almost forgot the XOR ('^') (toggle) function and the bitwise shifting 18:55 Krock Calinou, sorry when I didn't answer your question directly but I think a tutorial page actually helps more than my complicated sentences. 19:08 freelikegnu blocky is a fun educational game 19:08 freelikegnu though it teaches javascripy 19:09 freelikegnu would be nice to have a lua version as a nice precursor to learning more about lua with minetest 19:10 twoelk lua-blocks in minetest? 19:10 freelikegnu really I think the takeaway is learning about how logic works at a young age rather than grappling with it after the hair is already falling out 19:11 freelikegnu lua blocks in mt are good, but blocky is like a turnkey tutorial... like if you combined the tutorial minetest subgame with luablocks? 19:15 twoelk hm install the areas mod without markers to teach the kids all about the cartesian coordinates system :-D and have fun watching them 19:16 freelikegnu Yeah minetest gave me a good opportunity to discuss coords with my daughter the other day 19:16 freelikegnu so she could get her bones 19:16 freelikegnu :D 19:16 comradmax it seems MT loads up to the max distance that is covered by the minimap. is there any way to increase this further? setting viewing_range_nodes_min higher than 500 doesnt do it 19:17 twoelk I smell highend equipment there 19:17 comradmax yes, i have a radeon 6670 monster 19:17 rubenwardy or more optimisation 19:18 twoelk I never could look farther than 3000 nodes 19:18 twoelk but only in one direction 19:19 twoelk and not for long 19:19 comradmax twoelk i cant even look that far. i clearly see the hard edge, and im guessing it's about 500 19:20 twoelk dont get me wrong, I flew that distance and then looked back - I dont think you can load that distance by looking there 19:21 comradmax i think the minimap covers 500x500, so it's 250 to the edge from the middle. is that right? 19:21 comradmax oh, i gotcha, i need to go there, load it, and then i'll see it 19:21 comradmax but yes, i was wonderig if i can force to load by standing and just looking 19:22 twoelk I don't think the minimap preloads, it just shows what is loaded 19:25 twoelk farmesh was an experiment to see far but the math involved to look far is pretty staggering 19:25 comradmax it should be the same math, just more of it, no? 19:25 freelikegnu maybe a case for....opencl?! /me runs away 19:27 comradmax there is an actual max distance, once a node at some distance will render smaller than one pixel. it might be called diffraction limmit, but that's in real life... 19:28 comradmax after that maybe you need diff math 19:28 twoelk there is an end to cubic exponential math and that isn't far - just think of the chessboard story with doubling on each square 19:29 comradmax it'll take longer and longer to render, i get that 19:52 Hisforever I used VanessaE mod for building houses dose anybody have the URL for that Mod? 19:54 VanessaE https://github.com/VanessaE/homedecor_modpack 19:54 Hisforever thyanks Vanessa 19:54 VanessaE yw 20:28 swift110-phone Hey all 23:10 Juraka hi 23:10 VanessaE hi 23:11 Juraka :) how goes the MT world? I'm new to it but so far it looks grand.... Vanessa your work is awesome 23:12 VanessaE oh it goes, same as usual. and thanks :) 23:13 Juraka I can't claim to be any good at programming, but I'm trying to learn and hopefully could contribute one day 23:13 Juraka I have tons of ideas to expand/improve engine but who doesn't I suppose :p 23:51 waressearcher2 don't you think little tight community is better than big random one ?
