[Windows] Krock's 32-bit MSVC builds

[Krock]

I get an error on XPSP3 "cant find zlib1.dll"
last good build with no errors for me was "140802"

140802 also seems to be the only one I can change the gui/client's fonts on

Copy this (zipped) zlib1.dll file to your minetest\bin\ folder.
Does it solve the problem?

EDIT: If yes, I will add the file to the next build, so there won't be problems.

please dis-regard.

Good, so I will include this file to the next releases, so people with the same problem wouldn't need to get it everytime.
Enjoy! :)

Could you tell me since when this happens?
I can open the inventory without any problems (pressing 'I').

I might be trippin IDK, but it seems like when you have node highlighting enabled,
and dont move your cursor, whatever node that is highlited...slowly changes colors..its very subtle
Its like its cycling between high and low opacity settings very very slowly
pretty neat effect.
I cant seem to change the halo.png though no matter where I put the file
and no matter what texture pack I use.
I guess its a trade off

There are a few more subtle cosmetic changes I like as well;
The thin borders around message windows is cool
and the game settings menu seems a little tidier too

Thank you for still making these gsmapper builds. They are sorta laggy, but good enough on my computer.

Sadly, I haven't found a way to limit the mapper updates. Currently, it updates every frame.

Yeah;the last version I used regularly was 141102
I have it enabled in the minetest config file too.

I am using this one from git:
item_drop code by cyisfor
https://github.com/cyisfor/item_drop

I will switch to PilzAdam's Itemdrop and see if it works better.

Sorry, I can not reproduce your bug with this version of item_drop

Hello,
I think "preload item visual" is important for me :D
Also that hand is different from other(older) builds, this can be problem for me too.

This video will show you my bugs.

This video will show you my bugs.

Bugs in exe-only builds can be expected. Also, I can not see what exactly the problem is.
Please report the bug if it still exists with a regular dev build (or when 0.4.11 released). Thanks.
