What are your recommended Minetest graphics settings? I've tried the "just turning everything on" approach, and that's fine. But it's a bit superficial. What are the knobs to turn to get a more fun graphical experience? :D

I wanna make a server as close to vanilla mc as possible but my hardware is a bit limited, I'm running a Samsung a51 as my server.

What plugins give a mc like experience? And how do I make the server

How can I linkba controller to mintest on android. If three is no native support how would I need to map controls to screen to use a controller?

Hi everyone! Can someone please recommend a game without monsters (but with animals)? I am running my minetest server at home and I'd like to start playing with my kid, but I really don't like the monsters bit. I just want a game where we can explore and build things together.

Thanks!

ETA: For anyone looking for the same thing: I've added the option

only_peaceful_mobs = true

in minetest.conf under minetest/data/games/mineclone2

I've waited for the next night cycle and no monsters spawned. But a cow mooing behind me scared lol.

Thanks to @GrappleHat@lemmy.ml for the tip!

Ok this might be totally random but I think it might be possible to use the power of some GPUs to offload the heavy lifting. Imagine having a world with lots of stuff going on. It would be nice to have it offloaded to the GPU as the GPU can do calculations in parallel.

Hey,

I've found out about Minetest yesterday and I really like it. I wanted to get more familiar with the game, so I thought that making a survival world would be a good learning experience. I have made a few worlds in the Minetest Game, but I noticed that it's a clean sheet for mods. So if I wanted a classic survival experience like in Minecraft, what would be better, a modded Minetest Game or VoxeLibre?

Thanks in advance!

I like such mods in minecraft. Maybe minetest has some similar?

As of this post the blog is not yet updated, but the update is available for download and the change log is updated.

My Goblins mod for Minetest now works with:

• Minetest Game
• VoxeLibre / MineClone 2
• Mineclonia
• Hades Revisited
• Repixture

Get it in game or from the ContentDB

I know this is kind of an oddball question, and every community is rightfully going to be different.

Does anyone know of any chill, laid back survival experiences that are relatively safe/accepting for queer types?

Hi, it's been a long time since I last made a post here. I'm one of the community moderators, unfortunately the other moderator is no longer here, and due to many responsibilities that don't allow me to be more active on Lemmy in general, I invite members who want to moderate this community.

So, if you're active in the community, and want to be mod, let me know in the comments or DM :D

It's been a great thing to have ContentDB where excellent games are hosted. So why not a map section? It would probably be more easier and accesible for more creators to make maps for different games which will enhance the player's experience with not only luanti itself but also specific games and mods.
