So I think I see the server generating mapblocks differently depending on where I'm standing when they generate. |

Hi, I was wondering if mesh materials were used. https://wiki.minetest.net/Using_Blender appears to state that MT doesn't work with materials. If so, how would I work around that? |

argyle77: And that'll import into MT? |
00:48 |
galaxie |
Also, is there any external voxel editing tool that can be exported to something MT can import? |
00:52 |
p_gimeno |
galaxie: I think you do the UVs in blender, and specify the texture in the mod, and it will pick the UVs from blender |
00:53 |
galaxie |
What kinds of files CAN you import into MT? Not as meshes but as nodes. |
00:54 |
p_gimeno |
uh |
00:54 |
p_gimeno |
meshes are nodes I believe |
00:54 |
galaxie |
Like, as voxels. |
00:55 |
galaxie |
I make a voxel creation in some external editor, export it, then import it as a series of blocks in MT. |
00:55 |
p_gimeno |
ah, schematic files are the only ones I'm aware of |
00:55 |
galaxie |
What types of schematic files are supported so far? |
00:56 |
p_gimeno |
um, I'll leave the answer up to someone else, I haven't used them |
00:57 |
p_gimeno |
https://dev.minetest.net/schematic may help |
00:58 |
galaxie |
I do believe I saw some Python module or other that allowed you to make MT schematics.. oh where is that link.. |
00:59 |
p_gimeno |
how about using minetest as voxel creation editor? :P |
01:00 |
galaxie |
Eh, I'm trying to convert binvox and similar files to be imported.. |
01:00 |
sfan5 |
if you don't mind depending on a third party mod, the old worldedit schematic format is very simple |
01:00 |
sfan5 |
just a text file with position, node name and params |
01:01 |
galaxie |
Oh, it outputs to .schematic. Any quick way to import MC schematics? I mean, the nodes might be different but I think there was a few projects.. |
01:01 |
sfan5 |
even the new format (Lua dict) is easy enough to piece together manually from a foreign programming language |
01:02 |
galaxie |
So mcimport converts from a MC *world* to an MT world. I suppose that's different from a schematic, unfortunately. |
01:04 |
galaxie |
Is the new format's file extension .mts? |
01:05 |
p_gimeno |
mts is binary I believe - https://dev.minetest.net/Minetest_Schematic_File_Format |
01:06 |
galaxie |
Where's the docs for the Lua version? |
01:06 |
|
Wikiwide left #minetest |
01:06 |
p_gimeno |
I linked you to them :) |
01:07 |

There's a texture and resource pack converter but I guess that's not gonna help either. |
01:07 |
galaxie |
p_gimeno: The schematic table? |
01:07 |
p_gimeno |
yes |
01:09 |
sfan5 |
here's the Lua text format WorldEdit uses: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minetest-mods/mg/master/schems/well.we |
01:11 |
galaxie |
Now, once I generate a schematic table, how would I import/use it? |
01:12 |
p_gimeno |
keep reading :P |
01:12 |
p_gimeno |
same link, near bottom |
01:12 |
p_gimeno |
well, the WorldEdit one, with WorldEdit |
01:13 |
galaxie |
So: "A registered schematic identifier as a number, returned by minetest.register_schematic" Once I register, then I use place_schematic with that identifier? |
01:14 |
p_gimeno |
my understanding is that you can pass the Lua table to place_schematic |
01:14 |
galaxie |
Would registering be more efficient if I were to place a lot of the same schematics? |
01:15 |
sfan5 |
yes |
01:16 |
galaxie |
Alright. I've never really done Lua yet, but I was hoping to use Emacs with it. What's an efficient workflow for creating MT mods and testing Lua code? |
01:19 |
p_gimeno |
have a world prepared with the mod active; enter world, test. Make changes, exit world, enter world, test. |
01:19 |
p_gimeno |
for some uses you can also use WorldEdit's /lua |
01:20 |
galaxie |
Is that like the built-in Lua editor with no syntax highlighting and stuff? |
01:21 |
p_gimeno |
no, it lets you execute one line of lua, but that line may load a file (not a mod) |
01:21 |
p_gimeno |
like, //lua dofile("/path/file.lua") |

Carpqathian uses the MG_DUNGEONS flag as well as having a ymin and ymax setting for dungeons, so will depend on your settings |
03:32 |
DrFrankenstone |
it might be saving the screenshots in \bin, I have set "screenshot_path=" in the minetest.conf so it puts them in a screenshots folder |
03:36 |
cimbakahn |
DrFrankenstone: Thanks! I will check both. |
03:39 |
cimbakahn |
Does carpathian do it by default? Make sandstone brick dungeons. |
03:41 |
DrFrankenstone |
I'm not sure, it doesn't look like it has dungeons on by default, or that there's an easy way to turn them on by default, but I could easily be missing something. |
03:42 |
DrFrankenstone |
Carpathian uses the same dungeon generator as other mapgens, so whether a dungeon is made of sandstone depends on the biome, not carpathian. So if you've seen non-sandstone dungeons in Carpathian then AFAIK there will also be sandstone ones |
03:45 |

I've just found a sandstone dungeon in carpathian |

cimbakahn ^ |
04:07 |

you just have to find the sandstone desert biome in MTG to find one |
04:07 |
paramat |
in other games whether sandstone dungeons generate depends on the game |
04:08 |

Ok. So V6 doesn't generate them, but all the others do? |

mgv6 doesn't have sandstone dungeons because there are no sandstone deserts, but it does have 'desert stone' dungeons |
04:13 |

I still don't know where 5.0 is storing its screenshots. Siva said it probably isn't saving them because i have to create a folder for them. |
04:13 |

Perhaps if I pass you my map_meta.txt... |
04:14 |
p_gimeno |
cimbakahn: if in linux, you can use updatedb and then locate to find them |

Hello! Is there a lua pattern or string match or something I can do for a command to make it only accept, in a chat command, a decimal value, and not result in a crash when accidentally or intentionally typing two decimals? |
05:27 |
cheapie |
Nezrok: if tonumber(value) then --[[value was a number, do whatever]] end |
05:28 |
sofar |
the input to chatcommands is always a string |
05:29 |
sofar |
so you could just check that it is either "0" ... "9" :) |
05:29 |
Nezrok |
Currently it looks like, "if value == nil or value == "" or tonumber(value) > 1.0 or tonumber(value) < 0.1 then" on that line |
05:30 |
Nezrok |
And it works, if the user types, like, .2, or .7, or whatever, but if they type ..2, or ..7, the server crashes |

I found a solution, now it simply ignores the value given and goes with a default one, if the string given is longer than two (The decimal point and the following digit). Seems to work well :) |

Can someone clarify whether the .schematic files I find online for Minecraft models are the same ones that I might be able to import, at least with modification, with WorldEdit? |

It seems WorldEdit imports .we files but I'm not sure if that's the same thing. |
13:53 |

"with modification" can mean everything |
13:53 |
sfan5 |
if by "modification" you mean converting them to a different format, the answer will always be yes |
13:54 |
galaxie |
OK, my specific use case is I exported binvox files to .schematic files, and I want to import them. |

The only modification I think might be necessary would be renaming the node names or whatever, but considering it's made of only one node type... |

Well, I've tried opening the .schematic in MCEdit (legacy), but nothing happens? I pressed Open, then navigated to the file, and I'm back on the main menu? |

OK, so I ditched all that and wrote my own converter, which seems to work well. Now, how do I place a .mts somewhere? I thought there was some sort of chat command or other. |
16:58 |
galaxie |
Would //mtschemplace do that? |
16:59 |
p_gimeno |
I believe so |
17:03 |
galaxie |
Huh, that's odd. I compiled Minetest 5.0 from source and it's working, but it no longer uses the ~/.minetest directory. I use xstow and I may have messed up on setting CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.. |
17:07 |
p_gimeno |
or maybe you've set it up to run in place? |
17:07 |
|
puzzlecube joined #minetest |

Oh, is that what that was for? Well, that solved it. |
17:11 |
p_gimeno |
in place means all source, binaries, data, docs etc. are in the same folder |
17:11 |
galaxie |
I'm not as familiar with cmake as I wish I was. If I re-configure, would that mean I have to compile all over again? |
17:11 |
p_gimeno |
in some cases yes; if you change run_in_place, most probably yes |
17:12 |
galaxie |
Well, here goes 30 minutes of compiling, haha. |

Hello all ... |
18:59 |
Krock |
hi ç |
18:59 |
Telesight |
I do expect problems with the new cliennt update to 5.0.0 |
19:00 |
Telesight |
Tablet and phone players can not enter 0.4 servers anymore |
19:01 |
Krock |
oh wow |
19:01 |
Krock |
nobody expected THAT |
19:01 |
Telesight |
TNobody aware of that? |
19:02 |
rubenwardy |
5.0.0 is a major breaking release, which means that it's network incompatible with older clients |
19:02 |
rubenwardy |
the servers need to also update |
19:03 |
Telesight |
Wow how to kill a project ... |
19:04 |
Krock |
Telesight: if we had even more time for 5.0 then there would probably even more breakages |
19:04 |
Krock |
this was necessary to throw out garbage which has increased the past few years |
19:05 |
Krock |
cleaning up the network |
19:05 |
Telesight |
Yes, but some 0.4 server can not update because of all the mods |
19:05 |
Krock |
don't worry, your mods will most likely work as before. just ensure you update them |

Mods are still largely compatible, and any that aren't have already been updated for the most part afaik |
19:07 |
Telesight |
But then I have to test which is compatible or not |
19:07 |
Calinou |
most mods still work, which surprised me personally :-) |
19:07 |
Krock |
Calinou: it was never meant to break mods |
19:07 |
Calinou |
I thought most mods would have needed changes, due to the amount of changes in 5.0.0 |
19:08 |
Krock |
yet it happened |
19:08 |
Calinou |
but More Blocks & co still load fine in 5.0.0 so far |
19:08 |
Telesight |
In the meantime I have no players anymore |
19:08 |
Krock |
does that make you lose revenue? |
19:08 |
Krock |
downgrading is possible as well btw |
19:09 |
Telesight |
Yes our moederators are very expensive |
19:09 |
rubenwardy |
CTF has 17/30 on the 5.0 server |
19:09 |
Krock |
rubenwardy: was there shortly. runs very well :) |
19:09 |
galaxie |
Which server is this? I'm curious. |
19:09 |
Krock |
new maps apparently |
19:09 |
rubenwardy |
Krock: loadsa new maps |
19:09 |
rubenwardy |
and slippery! |
19:09 |
Krock |
yeah |
19:09 |
rubenwardy |
I'm going to add oil grenades |
19:10 |
Krock |
non-glitchy slippery |
19:10 |
rubenwardy |
they'll cover surfaces with super slippery oil |
19:10 |
Krock |

Also, have you fixed the bit where you can just spam-click with a sword? |
19:12 |
Krock |
raycast for the shooters. i.e. speedups |
19:12 |
rubenwardy |
unfortunately that's MT problem |
19:12 |
Krock |
laser cannons are possible now |
19:12 |
rubenwardy |
anyone up for making a good gun mod? |
19:12 |
* rubenwardy |
looks at ANAND |
19:12 |
galaxie |
Telesight: What server is this? |
19:12 |
Krock |
don't make a good gun mod. improve existing ones |
19:13 |
Krock |
I've written a simple bows mod which uses raycast as demo, but that's all |
19:13 |
benrob0329 |
rubenwardy: MTG doesn't have that problem, as the sword has a swing time |
19:13 |
rubenwardy |
wait, what |
19:13 |
Telesight |
@galaxie What server you mean? |
19:13 |
rubenwardy |
well, I've updated to match 5.0.0 MTG |
19:13 |
benrob0329 |
rubenwardy: you haven't been able to spam damage with weapons in MTG for years |
19:14 |

@telesight What server are you administrating/trying to upgrade/downgrade? |
19:14 |

19:14 |

I tried this code and nothing gets placed, I'm not sure what's wrong: minetest.place_schematic({ x = 0, y = 120, z = 0 }, minetest.get_modpath("default").."/schematics/aspen_tree.mts", "random", nil, true) |
19:36 |
galaxie |
I teleported to the area, looked around, placed a print statement in the mod just to be sure, and still nothing. It's adapted from https://dev.minetest.net/minetest.place_schematic |
19:36 |
p_gimeno |
kaeza: look again? |
19:36 |
kaeza |
heavygale: try it. |
19:36 |
Krock |
linux works a lot with files to pipe data, so it shouldn't be much of a problem. the data is cached before writing anyway |
19:37 |
kaeza |
p_gimeno: :o |
19:38 |
heavygale |
hmm, i don't like the idea of pulling it from a file - isn't there a way to allow a mod to use require("socket") and lithen to asocket? |
19:39 |
kaeza |
heavygale: look at irc mod. |
19:39 |
heavygale |
I'll do :) |

The gist of it is that you need access to the insecure environment. |
19:39 |
p_gimeno |
galaxie: worked for me, I have a tree at 120m at 0,0 |
19:40 |
heavygale |
ok, secure.trusted_mods is what i coudln't find in the wiki |
19:40 |
galaxie |
p_gimeno: Really? Maybe I'm teleporting wrong? /teleport 0 120 0 |
19:40 |
p_gimeno |
use F5 to be sure |
19:41 |
p_gimeno |
I think it needs commas instead but I may be wrong |
19:41 |
galaxie |
p_gimeno: Well, it says I'm in the right place. So what's wrong? I'm using 5.0. |
19:42 |
p_gimeno |
galaxie: me too, not sure what's wrong in your case. Maybe look around? |
19:42 |
Krock |
heavygale: the wiki might be very outdated sometimes |
19:42 |
galaxie |
p_gimeno: Well, it says pos: (0.0, 118.5, 0.0).. |
19:43 |

Krock: that's why I endet up here :D |
19:43 |
p_gimeno |
galaxie: I used //lua in worldedit, copy pasting your line |
19:43 |
galaxie |
p_gimeno: And I have looked around, up and down and everywhere. |
19:43 |
galaxie |
p_gimeno: I was going to use that, but I don't know how to paste into MT. |
19:43 |
heavygale |
i already figured out how to use secure.http_mods so i can perform rest api calls, but the way back into minetest doesn't work with that (except by pulling) |
19:45 |
Telesight |
I hope the young players do understand the mismatch during the update ... |
19:45 |
p_gimeno |
galaxie: yeah, irrlicht doesn't do clipboard very well |
19:46 |
galaxie |
p_gimeno: Oh, silly me, I actually can use Ctrl-C and V. It worked. Now why did the mod not work? It prints things to console and stuff. |
19:46 |
p_gimeno |
*shrug* |
19:48 |
