Luanti Forums

See our API docs, specifically set_bone_override lets you modify the scale of bones.

If only LuaJIT wouldn't lack bit operations. Bit operations probably should be fast even in a JIT, and if they wont be fast, then they would at least eliminate the need for some unique types, which could potentially result in massive improvement anyway. Another one scored for NodeJS. All day, every...

I could use a (dev) wiki account since I'm a core developer now, e.g. to edit changelogs or public meeting notes

First of all: Please funnel all gl(b|tf) models which don't work properly to me. I can see whether there are bugs to fix or convenience features to add (see e.g. https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/15310; unrelated to this post, but that PR was the result of someone sharing their experience wi...

Introduce a particle effect multiplier as a game setting. Currently particle quantities are tuned for my machine, which is getting old; other users probably can afford more. Note that particles recently (5.9.0+) got an order-of-magnitude performance improvement for basically everyone so you should ...

Anyone else missing the hotbar in 5.10 or is it just me? If this is unmodded MTG: Please file a Luanti issue. If this is modded: The hotbar was recently converted into a "Lua" HUD element rather than a hardcoded "C++" HUD element. An unfortunate consequence of that is that wrong...

Can I get this as flatpak update through package manager? If so, when?

thanks

We're still working on that. In the meantime, you could try out this if you like to (note that Minetest will now call itself Luanti, except for the Flatpak App ID).

This seems to affect only certain liquids, maybe the ones with backface culling, or the ones that aren't propagating sunlight

Please tell us which liquids specifically are affected and what their node defs are, then we can try to narrow it down.

The August and September update blog entry teased SSR for water reflections, though: Article: https://blog.minetest.net/2023/10/17/AugustSeptember/ Specific screenshot: https://blog.minetest.net/static/blog/2023_AugustSeptember/reflections.jpg But SSR seems not to be activated in the 5.10.0 final r...

I plan to attend FOSDEM 2025, though I am not yet sure in what capacity. Your call for participation reads age 7 to 17 I wonder which age distribution and level of technical experience to expect. (Also, what are the workshops like? Does FOSDEM provide computers or do participants bring their own dev...

Get rid of WIP sections (merge them into "release" ones): +1 (why didn't we do this earlier, would've saved quite some hassle :P); but let's keep forum topics for content for now, since ContentDB isn't (and probably shouldn't be?) a perfect replacement and we want to encourage folks to kee...

Emotionally, I prefer .net due to the situation surrounding the old domain. Rationally, I think .org is the more fitting choice.

Hello i would like to report a critical error in luanti.org website. The links section has broken HTML As you can clearly see. there is a lot of empty <a> tags that lead nowhere Frankly, if i was your web dev teacher, i would have given you an F-- for this cardinal error do better. You are correct ...

If you dont like a stable OS, why are you using debian in the first place? debian packages are designed to be this way Related thought: It's a pretty bad "design" to indiscriminately ship outdated software "for stability". Especially for games I would expect that are able to eas...

Everything mapgen must deterministically depend on the seed.

14659 has been merged: There will be an API to allow inter-"process" communication (IPC) in 5.10.0.

I'm a fan of the new name :)

The code must be using ^[colorize:... without a base texture. It should instead do something like blank.png^[noalpha^[colorize:....

Is it possible for Minetest to receive incoming HTTP requests from Dolibarr? If not, what would be a better approach to update inventories from an external system? Thanks No, you can only make outgoing HTTP requests. But that isn't really a problem since you can just switch from listening for event...

There is no need to install luasocket to make HTTP requests; Minetest has its own APIs for that: http://api.minetest.net/minetest-namesp ... p-requests

Reading this, the thought occurs to me that the algorithm here would be to look for entries that appear only on the right-hand side of each mod pair. Those are the root(s) of the unsatisfaction. Yes. but I'm guessing that this happens because climate_api is an optional dependency for nether, and if...

However, it made me think "why don't someone create an actual game better than Minecraft" instead of the clones? The simple answer to this is "many people are trying and there are many great things out there, but it simply takes a lot of work and commitment". Making a clone at l...

I think the error message is pretty clear, though it could be a bit clearer by noting which of these are transitive failures and which ones are "root" failures (this is easy to infer however: any missing dependency that is not itself missing a dependency is a "root" one). Note th...

I had segfaults with minetest.serialize given certain types of data, which parse_to_json handles fine. If Minetest segfaults, that's always a bug in Minetest. It would be nice if you filed a bug report (unless it already exists). This is unfortunately not true. Minetest relies on a few upstream lib...

Again, if all you're doing is deserializing stuff you serialized, then there is no advantage to switching to JSON. I wouldn't say that. I had segfaults with minetest.serialize given certain types of data, which parse_to_json handles fine. That would surprise me; after all it's essentially only Lua ...
