Re: Emigrate from Github

CI is definitely going to be the hardest part of the migration. If migrated CI doesn't work smoothly, core devs will have no reason to adopt it as official. GitHub CI is very mature, so anyone who wants to find a new host should first make sure the new host has great CI. Show some working builds of ...

Re: Emigrate from Github

Hi all, I rediscovered Luanti in October after toying around with Minetest Game for a few minutes in 2022. I've been contributing to docs.luanti.org for over a month now but have only written tiny mods so far. Also, full disclosure, I do work for Microsoft, which owns GitHub. That said, I'm totally ...

Re: Luanti Documentation project

Glad to see continued discussion here. I'll be discussing moving to Codeberg more with the docs team (#luanti-docs on IRC), though we are still working on categorization, spell-checking, and some other "quick fixes" that I think will provide better user experience in the short term. That s...

Re: Luanti Documentation project

Hi all, new contributor but someone who's helped migrate the wiki. Full disclosure, I do work for Microsoft, but I'm doing this work in my free time because Luanti is better than Minecraft ;) Yes, the new site is integrated with GitHub. This made is very easy for us to deploy changes through GitHub ...

Re: The Dev Wiki has been downgraded :-(

I think it's extremely important to clarify that the new site launched just a couple weeks ago and is still in very active development. Styles will improve, editing experience will improve, and we may very well embrace a non-GitHub host. Nothing is set in stone, feel free to write down your complain...

Re: Introducing Our New Name

Walking around for 10 minutes and then closing Minetest forever was exactly what I did about 2 or 3 years ago. Came back now as I have some more free time, but now I get to open Luanti :)

Re: Is Luanti an engine or just a platform?

Thanks for all the responses. I think I was looking primarily to answer "is it possible to publish a standalone game without requiring people to also download Luanti?" The answer is yes, but it doesn't seem to be the primary publication method, which makes sense when we look at getting mod...

Re: Introducing Our New Name

Chiming in as a new contributor: I like the name. I had heard of Minetest a few years ago and tried dabbling with it, but I thought it was just a moddable game and not a separate game and engine. I'm even seeing lots of chatter here that Luanti is a game, but it's pretty clear to me that Luanti is a...

Is Luanti an engine or just a platform?

Hi, I'm new to Luanti but I've been curious for a while. As I sit here compiling the code, I've started playing VoxeLibre, but I noticed I couldn't run it without also running minetest.exe. Is that the case for all content hosted on ContentDB? Is there a way to compile a standalone program with Luan...

Trying to start development with Windows + Docker (or vcpkg)

Hi, I've been curious about Luanti for a while and cloned the git repo for the first time just now. I've also installed docker desktop and I was able to build the image and start it following the guide: (https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/developing/docker.md) However... now what? ...
