[Mod] Stained Glass [1.2] [stained_glass] - new alpha suppor

[VanessaE]

No prob. If someone wants to fiddle with it a bit and send me a pull request with the recipes that needed corrected due to those tweaks I made to Unified Dyes, I'd appreciate it (Sketch too, I'm sure).

They aren't partially transparent, they are just a colored outline and the rest is completely transparent

Use the latest Git/development version, not 0.4.6.

I'll help you. Simple script:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

echo ""
echo "    *****************************"
echo "    * Minetest GitHub Installer *"
echo "    *****************************"
echo ""

sleep 2s

wget https://github.com/minetest/minetest/tarball/master -O master.tar.gz
tar xf master.tar.gz
cd minetest-minetest-*
cd games/
wget https://github.com/minetest/common/tarball/master -O common.tar.gz
tar xf common.tar.gz
mv minetest-common-* common
cd ..
cd games/
wget https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/tarball/master -O minetest_game.tar.gz
tar xf minetest_game.tar.gz
mv minetest-minetest_game-* minetest_game
cd ..
cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1
make -j2
sudo make install

[12Me21]

I use windows

[PilzAdam]

I use windows

Use my win builds then.

[Zeg9]

cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1
make -j2
sudo make install

RUN_IN_PLACE and make install are usually bad when you use them together...

[Ragnarok]

@Zeg9
Why?
In my script i make package this way:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=0
make -j2
sudo checkinstall -D

so I exchanged the last line to

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

sudo make install

It should work, isn't it? Sorry for off-topic.

[rubenwardy]

Pretty. Nice mod.

[12Me21]

I got it to work, and it looks really cool, but maybe it would be better without such dark edges.

[doyousketch2]

I had no idea why link was down because it wasn't 404'ing for me.
Browser kept loading my page from the cache so all looked well from here.

Anyway, I got a response from GitHub as to why the link was down:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

 Hey Eli

Sorry for the trouble. Your account was mistakenly flagged as spammy by our spam-sniffing robots. I've cleared the flag, so your profile page should be available again. Let me know if you have any questions.

Good stuff. Glad it's up again.
Posting this to hopefully help out others in case it accidentally happens to them too.

Since the stained glass blocks of this mod glow, I thought it would be neat if they could interact with mesecons via a soft dependency.

I suppose it's possible. I've been busy painting some large-format art pieces to sell at the local art-guild, so I haven't had a chance to do much in the way of Minetest coding.

By "soft dependency" I assume you mean that if Mesecons are installed and switched on, then the stained glass blocks will glow. That does sound like a cool idea. It'd be much more interactive that way.

Gimme a couple days to tidy this pic up then I'll look into it.

[VanessaE]

Beautiful picture, and glad to see you're still around. I was beginning to wonder.

As long as suggestions are being made, please make sure we can disable the mesecons compatibility without uninstalling that mod (e.g. a config option in a file in the world's folder). People on my server use the stained glass as a light source but in ways that would make it difficult to use mesecons with.

Also, I'd like to reiterate my idea that some kind of machine (in the same vein as moreblocks circular saw) be used to create the colored glass, so as to reduce the clutter in the creative inventory. Something that displays a palette in standard Unified Dyes order (with your extra shades above it) and which requires you to have the materials on hand so that it can sort of "auto-craft" the glass (assuming you're not in creative mode that is, otherwise don't care if the user has the materials or not).

MaxCZ: huh?

[Sokomine]

Maybe the new connected textures feature would be intresting for this mod as well. It is implemented in the connected_textures mod. To make it work, the drawtype would have to be changed and a new tile texture added for each node.
[Edit]If someone doesn't know: The colormachine talked about in this thread exists now and supports this mod full.

[VanessaE]

Here's my fork of this mod since sketch seems to be away again. I've removed everything from the creative inventory in favor of using Sokomine's machine:

Very good idea, VanessaE.

IU dont know how to get stained glass on your server anymore. Glass is not accepted by the color machine is all it said.

Sorry. Judge issued a warrant for back child-support without giving me a chance to respond to the prosecutor's claims, so I was chilling in jail for 30 days :(

Just got out, so I gotta spend my time dealing with that bull-$#!T and get some cash flow to keep them off my back or I go back in for 60.

[andersje]

I too forked the code , at https://github.com/andersje/stained_glass -- rebuilt so it works with the new dye system, and it appears that it works with the existing blocks, too

As the years go by, the powers that be become more and more ruthless. Do everything you can to avoid going back to jail.

[VanessaE]

My fork now matches andersje's :-)

Sketch, so sorry about your bad luck :-( but I'm glad you're still around. Inocudom is right, you need to focus on you and your situation and stay out of jail.

[VanessaE]

jojoa1997, that's a bug in the colormachine mod then. I'll get after sokomine to fix it.

[Sokomine]

That's not a bug. The orignial receipes use superglowglass - and thus, the colormachine uses superglowglass as colorless basic node for the colored glass as well.

[andersje]

With great thanks to VanessaE for helping me get the code straightened out, and VanessaE's blessing, I've taken over the stained_glass mod until such a time as doyousketch2 is back to commit code =)

Thanks for the great work, doyousketch2!

Also, I've added noglow and lowglow glass ( using glass and moreblocks:glow_glass) respectively.

Come consume it at https://github.com/andersje/stained_glass

let me know of any issues and I'll get on them asap. All blocks now craftable, but not listed in creative inventory.
