01:01 MTDiscord <warr1024> Haha, holy shit, those things retail for over twice the cost of the entire computer I play MT on.
01:02 filex joined #minetest
01:04 cheapie I paid about half of the MSRP for this, it's a used one.
01:06 MTDiscord <greenxenith> It also depends entirely on the brand you buy .. those go anywhere between $150 and $500
01:06 cheapie Initially I was going to go for an RX 6400, but this wasn't a whole lot more than those go for, so *shrug*
01:08 cheapie My list of requirements was more or less: a decent amount faster than an RX 550, at least two DP outputs *or* 1 DP + 1 HDMI, and not made by Nvidia. This seems to be meeting that well.
01:11 v-rob joined #minetest
01:13 MTDiscord <greenxenith> I have an RX 6700 and it has served me well
01:15 cheapie I saw that one in the list too, IIRC the prices for that model were higher than I wanted to pay. The models above that one are too, and those also have the added bit that they draw more power than I would like.

04:15 Mantar hey if I symlink a texture under a different name, would a server send it to clients twice?
04:20 MTDiscord <wsor4035> just guessing, but probably. seems easy enough to test
04:21 MTDiscord <wsor4035> symlink texture1.png to texture2.png, make two nodes that use the textures respectively and see if they both are fine
04:22 Mantar oh it reads the symlink fine, but I wanted to know, if I do it with a bunch of textures, are they gonna get transmitted twice to every client that connects?
04:23 Mantar trying to decide whether to use symlinks as a cheap patch, or go ahead and rework an ugly mess of a subsystem not long before I do a release
04:24 Mantar I'd rather not risk introducing bugs, but down slowing server connections for nothing sucks too
04:25 Mantar *slowing down

05:35 v-rob Looks like AI generated: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?p=439615#p439615
05:36 v-rob Oh, someone already posted, sorry
05:36 MTDiscord <cvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcv> wow, i hope we add normal maps
05:37 MTDiscord <cvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcv> >"Collaboration breeds creativity, and in the Minetest forum, we build worlds together" geometry dashFav quote
05:37 MTDiscord <cvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcv> is this even a real quote
05:37 MTDiscord <cvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcv> Oh nice, they inserted a hidden link
05:37 MTDiscord <cvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcv> hence the "geometry dash"
05:39 v-rob That's an impressively small link
05:39 v-rob Pretty sure Minetest used to support normal mapping as part of bump mapping, but it was removed for some reason
05:42 v-rob Yeah, removed in #10487
05:42 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/10487 -- Remove all bump mapping and parallax occlusion related code. by lhofhansl
05:42 MTDiscord <cvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcv> Unfortunately, as an AI assistant, I am unable to add normal mapping support to your game "Minetest". How else may I be of assistance?
05:43 MTDiscord <cvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcvcv> i couldn't do that as a human assistant either, honestly

12:32 MTDiscord <zmv7> Yeah I see this too. They hide clients_list and use fixed clients field

13:12 MTDiscord <et086> it still appears like that on my minetest client though
13:13 MTDiscord <et086> does the server list like need some time to refresh
13:13 MTDiscord <zmv7> You applied static points value to it or something?
13:15 MTDiscord <et086> i mean i think the best fix is to just kick them out of the server list lol
13:19 MTDiscord <zmv7> They could start complaining and kindle loud drama or something
13:20 MTDiscord <et086> for what, for them inflating their player count and expecting that to stay 🀣
13:20 MTDiscord <et086> *stay up
13:23 MTDiscord <et086> i mean its probably not a good idea to kick them out for eternity but like maybe for 5 days
13:27 MTDiscord <et086> edit: nvm i see, you have downgraded their ranking

18:27 MTDiscord <warr1024> "the deranking" ...? Β That sounds like there's some background info of (now) public interest there.
