Outdated servers are always sending tiledefs with culling
enabled no matter what, as the value was previously entirely
ignored.
To compensate, we must (1) detect that we're running against
an old server with a new client, and (2) disable culling for
mesh, plantlike, firelike and liquid draw types no matter what
the server is telling us.
In order to achieve this, we need to bump the protocol version
since we cannot rely on the tiledef version, and test for it
being older. I've bumped the protocol version, although that
should have likely happened in the actual change that introduced
the new backface_culling PR #3578. Fortunately that's only 2
commits back at this point.
We also explicitly test for the drawtype to assure we are not
changing the culling value for other nodes, where it should
remain enabled.
This was tested against various pub servers, including 0.4.13 and
0.4.12.
Fixes#3598
Backface culling is enabled by default for all tiles, as this
is how the lua parser initializes each tiledef. We revert to
always using the value from the tiledef since it is always
read and serialized.
Mods that wish to enable culling for e.g. mesh nodes, now can
specify the following to enable backface culling:
tiles = {{ name = "tex.png", backface_culling = true }},
Note the double '{' and use of 'name' key here! In the same
fashion, backface_culling can be disabled for any node now.
I've tested this against the new door models and this properly
allows me to disable culling per node. I've also tested this
against my crops mod which uses mesh nodes where culling needs
to be disabled, and tested also with plantlike drawtype nodes
where we want this to continue to be disabled.
No default setting has changed. The defaults are just migrated
from nodedef.cpp to c_content.cpp.
cloneMesh() has to use a switch in order to create a different
mesh buffer type depending on vertex type. (Credit: the new cloneMesh
was written by RealBadAngel.)
To avoid repetitive code, all other methods use getVertexPitchFromType()
to automatically adapt the indexing to the vertex type at runtime.
The pageflip mode requires a stereo quadbuffer, and a modern graphic
card. Patch tested with NVidia 3D Vision.
The mini-map is not drawn, but that's what is done for topbottom and
sidebyside modes as well.
Also most of the time the user would prefer the HUD to be off. That's
for the user to decide though, and toggle it manually.
Finally, the interocular distance (aka eye separation) is twice as much
as the "3d_paralax_strength" settings. I find this a strange design
decision. I didn't want to chance this though, since it's how the other
3d modes interpret this settings.
Previously, we assumed that reply->str was NULL
terminated. However, this turned out to be not true,
as users reported crashes in strlen connected to
where reply->str was appended to an std::string.
Use the method recomended by the docs, to read the
length separately.
Removing the target file on other platforms was enabled likely unintentionally
by commit 5f1f1151d3.
This may be the reason why there has been corruption of files on Linux on hard
shutdowns.
Previously I described the problem and this fix in issue #3084.
My commit
e2d54c9f92 "shutdown when requested from lua in singleplayer too"
broke minetest's feature to connect to servers. The client crashed
after the connection init was complete.
Thanks to @sofar for reporting the bug.
Fixes#3498.
If an `XDG_CACHE_HOME` can't be found or `RUN_IN_PLACE` is enabled,
`path_cache` is left at its default of `$PATH_USER/cache`
(at a time when `PATH_USER` is `..`), rather than being reset to
`$PATH_USER/cache` after `PATH_USER` has been properly set.
This allows other applications (e.g. minetestmapper) to interrogate
the database while minetest is running, without causing an almost
certain minetest crash.

horizontal/vertical describes different things. Thanks @kilbith for pointing out.
