Congratulations on the release. I compiled it yesterday just a few minutes after the release dropped. Everything works as expected on my machine. I compiled with SDL2 and have zero issues.
Good job, everyone! Thank you!

Re: Luanti 5.11.0 release candidate
Any plans to do something regarding SDL2, now that SDL3 was released some time ago?

Re: Serverlist is bricked
I don't think they were able to actually hack the server list itself. More like weak input validation on server list side and malicious server setup sending data to circumvent it just to annoy people.

Re: Use more than one texture pack at the same time
What is if you can then choose which texture packs should be used together and then allow Luanti to rearrange them in subfolders. You could. But not with Luanti. You need to create the directory structure as needed and then manually copy the texture packs into that directories. And then, in the cli...

Re: Use more than one texture pack at the same time
Copying together texture packs is a bad idea. It completely and irrevocably messes up upstream data (Git, anyone?) and installations via CDB.
The feature was not wanted by multiple (back then?) core devs.

Re: Luanti Documentation project
I disagree. Having a wiki was technical nonsense, and it showed and resulted in a bunch of practical nonsense, ranging from very bad website availability to spam floods. Also: MediaWiki syntax is inferior to Markdown. But having a wiki is inferior to not having one. It just needs to be properly mai...

Re: Luanti Documentation project
Not great that now apparently the only way to contribute to the wiki is through the bottleneck called GitHub pull requests. The technical nonsense and administrative decisions aside: that this makes Luanti even more depending on the goodwill of Microsoft. the fact that every change must trigger a f...

Re: [OBSOLETE] Wiki account requests
The static generated pages have absolutely NOTING in common with a wiki. Not one single bit.
Why is the developer documentation still called a “wiki” when it clearly isn’t?

Re: Emigrate from Github
The primary reason is that self-hosting isn't a trivial endeavour. It actually is. I learned all I needed within a week or two (granted I already have a background in this kind of stuff). CI can be done with Forgejo actions. There is no real reason not to ditch GitHub except the usual corporate-lik...

Re: Emigrate from Github
While moving off of Github would be great, self-hosting is a lot of extra work to adopt. Moving to Codeberg first (and possibly continuing to mirror back to Github for some time) would make it easier to transition, and if self-hosting turns out to be necessary, it would be much easier to move Forge...

How long does it take until mods are approved in the CDB?
Does anyone know how long it usually takes nowadays to have mods approved? Some time ago I uploaded two of my mods to the CDB and made a release and marked them as ready for approval. The approval was not given for both mods for two different reasons. For one mod the reason was a mismatching licensi...

Re: The Dev Wiki has been downgraded :-(
The current plan is that discussions would happen on the #minetest-docs IRC channel and/or GitHub. Considering that there are only a handful of reasonably active contributors, I think that is fine. The lack of contributors was because of the access limitations that were in place. Limiting discussio...

Re: The Dev Wiki has been downgraded :-(
If you strip all and everything that makes a wiki, then it will be of course faster than a wiki.
Forcing devs to use a closed-source corporate Git hosting service to make changes makes it a rendered website instead of a wiki.
In the current state it’s a sad excuse for a wiki, at best.

Re: Emigrate from Github - now is the perfect moment!
Are you certain that Gitea isn't entirely FOSS? Yes. The project was hostilely taken away from the community by a for-profit corporation. https://mjtsai.com/blog/2022/11/25/gitea-ltd-takes-over-open-source-project/ One of their first steps was to make it mandatory to replace all individual copyrigh...

Re: Emigrate from Github - now is the perfect moment!
Forgejo. It can do anything GitHub can do, but you’re 100% in control of all your data, plus: other than Gitea or GitLab it is fully open source.

Re: How to improve render performance without sacrificing render quality/features?
Thanks for pointing out the mesh chunk configuration! This unfortunately doesn’t really change anything to the overall better. I feel like I get a bit more frames when not moving or looking around (I tested a very demanding area of the world and got ca. 40-45 frames instead of 20-30). But I clearly ...

Heyo :) With all the new and cool render features, like shadows, water reflections, specular lighting, etc. I get a pretty decent looking result. d.jpeg This is very great, but results in extremely low FPS around 30-40 on average, sometimes down to low twenties. My machine isn’t the newest anymore. ...

Re: Luanti crashes on starting up a world
A good first start for figuring out what’s going on, would be providing a clean debug.txt (same user directory where the worlds and mods, etc. are located). Delete the file, start Luanti and do whatever you did that makes it crash, close the client, copy and paste the file’s contents to the forums i...
