My mod won't show, why?

[drpeppercan]

Hi all,

This is my mod dir structure:



And this is my init.lua script content:

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

minetest.register_node("nellys_poster:nellys_poster", {
   drawtype = 'mesh',
   mesh = 'nellys_poster.b3d',
   tile_images = {"nellys_poster.png"},
   groups = {oddly_breakable_by_hand=2},
}

What else should I be checking?

Thanks guys :)

You're missing a ) to close the ( on the first line

If this isn't the problem, please show us mod.cong and the last 20 lines of debug.txt

make sure the mod.conf file has the correct information in it

rubenwardy! Hey man!
I just started reading your Minetest Modding Book! I love it! Thanks a bunch for sharing it :)

I added the missing closing parenthesis. Thanks for that.
I changed the mod's name to "poster", it used to be "nellys_poster" (same as the node).
I am not including info from the debug.txt because it's not up to date anymore. And it won't update it either.
I open Minetest, it shows nothing in the Mods tab. Then I open/run the world I made before, also I created a new one. But the debug.txt won't get updated.



Napiophelios,
Thanks, I just corrected the mod.conf file. Now it says:

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

name = poster

The depends.txt only says:

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

default

I guess is something specific to Minetest, because I just tried another mod, and it still did not show.
I tried Nathan's dog mob

I have reinstalled Minetest twice, and rebooted computer too.

Ok, it's been solved!
Thanks to Napiophelios.
It was a matter of getting a build from sfan5.
