When I wrote this the latest MC version out was 1.8. I haven't tested 1.10, but I don't think there were any major changes in 1.9. Chances are, they all work fine.

default_grass_(1,2,3,4,5).png have grass with identical height. Is possible move textures default_grass_(1,2,3,4).png little down?

That would break texture packs that provide textures that are of increasing length.

IGNORE - found the problem, operator error in not reading that "unzip" needs to be in the path.

I just tried this out and got the following error:



Then i did an ls:



Any help?

Very very COOL !! :D

I've updated PixelPerfection to v36, so if all you want is a new copy of it, just go here:

I don't even know what `checkdir` is, and I certainly don't think it's a linux thing.

It's an unzip error

checkdir error cannot create. if you’re trying to unzip something and you’re getting a ‘checkdir error cannot create’ on Linux, check the error again:

Make sure that you have write permission on the folder you are trying to unzip to

I've been trying out mcresconvert and it is an excellent tool. Thank you for making bridging all that good stuff from MC over to MT possible.

I wonder if mese tools could be handled in the script even if they don't exist in MC. I've noticed that Minetest do not make use of gold tools (which is apt, who makes soft metal tools anyway?), but MC does. Therefore these set of tools goes unused in conversion, right?

How about using the gold tools as mese tools then? The often warm goldish yellow of the MT gold tools could be selectively hue shifted to a colder one matching the original mese color. It would have to be only a yellowish range of the color spectrum that would shift, but Imagemagick should be able to handle that.

I love the way this works!! I successfully converted my default MC resources and they seem to be working well. The only problem is, resources like granite, andesite, diorite, crafting table, etc. are not displaying in wuzzy's MineClone2 game. I'm assuming the problem is that the converted textures are not named correctly to work in wuzzy's subgame. Any suggestions on how I might fix this?

The converter is tailored to minetest_game, not mineclone2. I would need to know the name of the textures that mineclone2 uses for granite etc, and then they could be added to the translation tables. Patching it is relatively simple for most textures, since it is just a rename.

What about enabling alternative translation tables? mcresconvert could use a default table but pull in other ones depending on a flag correlating to the table's name.

Ideally, we convert the texture pack to as many mods and subgames without any flags, so, if we want to support mineclone, we should go that route first.

Cool.

You mean to create duplicate texture files so that they'll fit naming, when the namings diverge? Perhaps that's not a real issue though.

texture packs aren't large enough for this to be a problem. So yes.
