FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hi, i go on github, and can't see your code, only a LICENSE and the README.md :)
What happens with your last commit 14h ago and push ?

It is a new repo and I didn't upload the code yet. You can find the old repo on my github accounts. It is called ambiEnce instead of ambiance. Was a typo

New code follows asap

Since my mod is a modpack I start with the forest mod. Currently I use the same samples for Deciduous forest and coniferous forest, but I want to have different samples for coniferous forest and snowy coniferous forest.

I only add one sample for each area and for day and night. Feel free to add as much as you want. Follow the rules in the first post

What you have achieved here is a milestone not only for mods, but for Minetest itself. The developers of this game, Neuromancer, and VanessaE should, I hope, feel the same way.

Now I really have to try it.

You can have a preview of my latest update

Great work! I'd probably reduce gain a bit but this is of course awesome regardless.

Idea: to distinguish biomes better maybe you can start checking for the absence of some nodes

I had this idea too, but I think this is not very reliable. I hope, paramat adds a "biome at point" function soon.

Until then I will work on the parts that don't need this Function like the forests and, what I want to do next, the caves

This is a fantastic modpack. I look forward to it running on servers. I'll be working together to do this.

Add some cave ambiance. But I need more "spooky" sounds ;-)

Sounds great! I think the windy sound could be replaced with a low-pitch humming sound, because although wind may exist in caves it's more associated with, say, highlands.

You're right. The problem is, that sounds sound different in Minetest. It sounds more spooky if I play it on the desktop

Add sounds for lava, sand, desert_sand and silver_sand.

For the deserts I currently added a simple whistling wind. No difference at day/night and no extra sounds like a howling wolf

Have you checked for audio encoding specs in MT and/or Irrlicht documentation? It could be the issue.

The original sounds in Minetest are odd. I decided to replace them. But it is difficult to find good samples or make them myself. So I searched for Minecraft sounds that can be used.

I found the Presence Footsteps Mod. But I don't want to ship the samples because I don't know yet which licence is used. I will make a mod that converts the samples at the first start, but you will have to download them yourself, similar to the texture pack converter for Minecraft Textures.

Here are some examples

I'm not sure if I can make a mod for this because maybe I have to convert the files somehow. If it is not possible I may make a Python Script

Suggestions are welcome

I guess I will rewrite my ambiance mod. I'm a bit surprised about the execution time.

But I have a new idea

When i installed the mod i was getting a error:

Doesn't really makes sense. There should always be a player. Maybe try this for a quick fix. Have not much time to take a closer look



Tell me if the same error appears then in other mods
