A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

When you say you are playing Minetest are you playing MineClone or did you start from scratch with the mods you chose.

I tried MineClone first, and it was fun. After researching mods, I went deep down the rabbit trail, and switched to MineGame/default, since it seems like there's more mod combinations.

Now I have a setup that's roughly MineClone, but with some quality of life changes.

Most notably, once I tried the 'always have a crafting table' default in MineGame, I missed it anytime I tried to go back to MineClone (which requires a crafting table to unlock 3x3 crafting, just like Minecraft).

I would love to see your mod list! If you have done a bit of work to find and test a collection of mods that you like, people might be interested to try it as an alternative starting point.

Cool. I'll be happy to share my MineTest mod list.

I posted a high level summary from memory elsewhere in this thread.

But, I plan to write it up and share it in detail, soon, after I stop tweaking it.

Please do, especially if there is a Minetest community on the fediverse somewhere :P !
