Since there isn't an official build of Minetest for Windows ARM, I figured I would make one. Thank you ROllerozxa for pointing me towards this: Minetest MSYS2 Compiling instructions

Thanks to you, I was able to eventually get it working with some adjustments to those instructions and some light tinkering with thread.cpp since 5.8.0 won't compile under the CLANGARM64 MSYS2 environment without the changes.

Here is the download for the actual build: Minetest 5.8.0 Windows ARM

Also, here is a diff file for src/threading/thread.cpp in-case you are interested in what changes had to be made (and to satisfy the LGPL)

I know Google Drive isn't great, but I don't really have a better way to host files available to me at the moment. This was the quickest solution.

New build - 5.9.0

This time, I didn't need to make any changes to get it to compile.

Again, sorry for the use of Google Drive, but it's probably the easiest solution available to me at the moment:

Download the new build here: Minetest 5.9.0

New Build - 5.9.1

Here ya go: Download (minetest-5.9.1-aarch64.zip)

Again, no code changes were necessary for this build so I don't have patch files to post. Also, once again, sorry for the use of Google drive.

No problem. I am glad to see someone other than myself is getting some use out of it.

Luanti 5.11.0

EDIT: I am using Proton Drive this time. If anyone has issues, please let me know and I will go back to Google Drive for this.

Fantastic! I'm glad to hear that it worked well. I wasn't sure about Proton's sharing, but now I will keep using it until someone has an issue with it XD

Did the build work for you as well? Again, I don't really have the hardware to actually test it on so I appreciate bug reports whenever something comes up

Sorry, this one was a bit late.

luanti-5.13.0-aarch64.zip

Really appreciated.

Decided to test the 5.14 x64 non-arm version on my Snapdragon Win11-ARM laptop. Works great. Should save some re-compile, at least.

Yeah, I have been meaning to get around to it but I don't have access to my mac mini at the moment. I will probably have access to it again at some point in the near future, but I don't know when that will be just yet.

Okay, I finally have access to my Mac Mini again. I should be able to make a build at some point over the next couple days.
