Dev snapshot build 0.4.dev-20120606

Download for Windows: https://github.com/downloads/celeron55/minetest/minetest-0.4.dev-20120606-win32.zip

Others can go and grab their stuff from github or the download page, as usual.

Known bugs:

  • It is network-incompatible with 20120408, altough it doesn’t act like it was. Do not use this to connect to a 20120408 server. I intended to update the protocol version number but accidentally left it out…
  • I am not sure whether the deprecation of register_on_placenode and register_on_dignode is actually what I want. In any case, mod makers need not hurry; they won’t be removed in a good while because many mods use them. (also in 0.4.dev-20120603)

What’s new (0.4.dev-20120603 -> 0.4.dev-20120606):

  • Fix loading of old signs
  • Fix a network bug
  • License change to LGPLv2/later by agreement of major contributors. If you think Minetest contains code made by you that you do not wish to distribute under this license, point me to it and we’ll figure out what to do to it.
  • minetest.place_node
    minetest.dig_node
    minetest.punch_node
    nodedef.after_destruct
    minetest.serialize, minetest.deserialize (by wokste)
  • Replacements in cooking and and fuel recipes (an ancient patch by kahrl); groups in crafting recipes (by me)
  • Many small things (see commit history)

  3. ParadoxCab Says:

    Amazing! You can make even better than Minecraft, then your open source will get even more popular! If you need advertissment, call me ;)

    I have redownloaded it 2 times, and I still can’t use the furnace, and it lags terribly every few seconds. There are a lot of things you can’t do without the furnace. When I try to use the furnace, it always says “ran out of fuel” even when it has things in it. And I know how to use it.

  5. Brian Says:

    I see you’ve failed to fix the irrilcht engine, to allow the option of changing what driver you play the game with, for example instead of openGL, direct3d9. So changing the video_driver in the mintest.conf does absolutely nothing, leaving my game running at 2fps. This is the reason I gave up on this game, due to the lack of my ability to enjoy the game with a smooth frame rate.

  9. reapers321 Says:

    any ports to play multiplayer?

  10. Calinou Says:

    reapers321, yes, you can play multiplayer… just put an address and a port. See the “Servers” forum.

  11. koondawg33 Says:

    What File do you open to play the game?

  12. mauvebic Says:

    regarding : placenode and dignode being deprecated – ive already updated all my stuff – but it occured to me deprecating those functions might take something away – i had to drop the antigrief portion of my mod, it only worked because i used placenode and dignodes that discriminated by position instead of nodename – the only alternative (if the functions were removed) would be to declare each node with a call to the antigrief function on after_place and after_dig, and even then, i couldn’t re-declare every default node, or guess & re-declare nodes from other mods – so the whole antigrief thing (the way i wrote it) wouldn’t work without the functions. Either way ive discontinued my efforts in anti griefing – people would rather keep complaining about it than try any of the solutions or help developing one lol but on my server of two, its not really my problem lol.

    on the client side – in the distance the background keeps alternating/flashing between light and darkness, i keep having to increase my viewing range to avoid seizures lol. And when i built at Y +2000 i noticed these dirt nodes floating around in the sky all over the place. I still get that bug with texture_atlas and some textures not rendering properly, probably because i have too much stuff in my mod lol.

    amazing work with meta :-) made implementing myst-like linking books a snap (which is mostly just code hacked together from sign_wall, chest_locked and /teleport)

    Keep up the good work :-)

  13. mauvebic Says:

    PS. I forgot, is there a way for the server to remember which sounds were playing when it shutdown and restore them on startup?

  14. mauvebic Says:

    my bad – updated from 03 to 06, the light in the background doesnt flicker, but certain square areas at the edge of my viewing range tender to flicker in & out weather im moving or not.

  15. Calinou Says:

    koondawg33, minetest.exe in bin folder on Windows, or compile it on Linux. There is no Mac version right now (only outdated).

  16. mauvebic Says:

    The forums seem to go down every other week and stay down for days. Have you considered http://www.freeforums.org/ ?

  20. Adam Says:

    Celeron55,
    I think you should go through the process of bulding the game basis first.
    Next to be more original and not just a lookalike,ask the forums for ideas.
    Be open-minded!

  21. Adam Says:

    And make sure you have a survival mode so it isn’t just a creative game.

  28. Rei Says:

    You all do realize that you should report problems here: http://minetest.net/forum/viewforum.php?id=6
    Also, that this is currently being updated. I’m actually pleased with this game. It gives me the creativity I got when playing the sims, meanwhile saving me money and at the same time, somewhat lag free(The occasional, but oh well :3)
