Help me please, I can't see the sun or moon

by Nexus24680 » Post

I just can see a sky with clouds but no sun or moon
Is it a mod?
How can I fix it?
Has it happened to you?

If by skybox you mean a mod that changes the sky, then no.

Do you have any textures enabled? Try to disable them
Have a nice day! :D

I don't have any textures enabled.
BTW I used a different subgame to see if the problem persisted.
And it did.

Thanks but I like this instead.
It looks like I'm the first one having this problem
Because I searched on the forum and didn't find anything.

Maybe can be a problem with the hardware of your device, in this case you Graphics Processing Unit. I haven't seen a similar problem but it can happen.
Try reinstalling the game and installing the official version from the minetest website, or as well download the one from the F-Droid repositories.
Have a nice day! :D

I did it. And it didn't work.
I even changed the texture pack to no avail.
What should I do?

visit the irc in the link above, and someone will be able to assist you.
The reason irc is better, is because you will be able to "chat" with someone who will be able to assist you in a live manner.

What are mods do you use in fact? Maybe did you just forget about it?

It's a known bug in Android, there is an issue for it at Github.

Will it get fixed?
Please developers fix it.
I don't like to be unable to see the sun or moon.
They help the game be more realistic and if you don't have them, the game feels like a "game'.

We want it fixed but we are extremely understaffed at the moment and Android is not a priority.
