| + | === Deprecations and compatibility notes === | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Removed support for bumpmapping, generated normal maps, and parallax occlusion (''Lars'', ''hecks'') | ||
| + | ** These features had fundamental issues, several bugs, and were broken on some platforms. | ||

| + | ** These ore types require noise_params. To keep the same behaviour, you can use the following values: | ||
| + | |||
| + | <pre> | ||
| + | noise_params = { | ||
| + | offset = 0, | ||
| + | scale = 1, | ||
| + | spread = {x=250, y=250, z=250}, | ||
| + | seed = 12345, | ||

| + | For some context, read [https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/6073 the issue that resulted in this change]. | ||
| − | == 0.4. | + | === Breaking changes and deprecations === |
| + | As a major release, 5.0.0 will break some mods written for 0.4.x versions. | ||
| + | We tried to keep the breakages as small as possible whilst fixing long standing issues. | ||
| − | 0.4. | + | * Minetest now uses C++11 instead of C++03, make sure you have a compatible system (Windows Vista, Debian 8, Ubuntu 16.04, CentOS 7, macOS 10.7, …) |
| + | * Breaks network compatibility with 0.4.x. 0.4.x clients won't be able to connect to 5.x servers and vice-versa. Fix: update clients and servers to 5.x | ||
| + | * Attachment and player positions have been shifted by 1 node, to allow support for custom player selection boxes. Fix: update default and player_api, subtract <code>10</code> from any attachment positions, shift the origin of player models to the feet | ||
| + | * Formspec theming using prepended strings. This may cause wrong backgrounds to appear on formspecs. Fix: see https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=20646 | ||
| + | * depends.txt and description.txt have been deprecated. Fix: use ''description'', ''depends'', and ''optional_depends'' in mod.conf, game.conf, or texture_pack.conf instead | ||
| + | * modpack.txt has been deprecated. Fix: rename to or add ''modpack.conf''. | ||
| + | * Use of deprecated methods such as ''object:setpos()'' is now warned about. Fix: [https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=20403 replace them with correct functions] | ||
| + | * ''player:get/set_attribute()'' is now deprecated. Fix: use ''player:get_meta()'' instead | ||
| + | * ''nodeupdate()'' was removed. Fix: replace with ''minetest.check_for_falling''. | ||
| + | * Clouds API: changed speed param from 'y' to 'z' | ||
| + | * Player inventory list "hand" must now be manually initialized by mods (using ''set_size'') | ||
| + | * Some client-side scripting functions were removed (see below) | ||
| − | + | Note that a function being ''deprecated'' means that it still exists, but it may give a warning when used and may be removed in future. | |
| + | Deprecations are necessary to improve the consistency and efficiency of our API | ||

Released on 23 Feb 2021.
Deprecations and compatibility notes
- Removed support for bumpmapping, generated normal maps, and parallax occlusion (Lars, hecks)
- These features had fundamental issues, several bugs, and were broken on some platforms.
- Deprecated node field value:
use_texture_alpha = true/false- Fix: Use
"clip","blend"or"opaque"(see documentation)
- Fix: Use
- Deprecated
get_player_velocityandadd_player_velocity(rubenwardy)- Fix: replace with
get_velocity()andadd_velocity()
- Fix: replace with
- Deprecated multiply and divide with two vectors (Schur product and quotient) (DS)
- Fix: implement your own version
- By default, the crosshair will now change to an "X" when pointing to objects. If your game had a custom crosshair, this might come as a surprise and break graphical consistency.
- Fix: Specify object_crosshair.png image
- Added deprecation warning for node field:
alpha(only limited compatibility provided)- This was already deprecated and undocumented.
- Fix: Replace by
use_texture_alpha
- Fixed deprecation warning when certain ores types ("sheet", "puff", "blob" and "vein") are missing noise_params (rubenwardy)
- These ore types require noise_params. To keep the same behaviour, you can use the following values:
noise_params = {
offset = 0,
scale = 1,
spread = {x=250, y=250, z=250},
seed = 12345,
octaves = 3,
persist = 0.6,
lacunarity = 2,
flags = "defaults",
}

Modder Update Guide

Released March 4th
Note: 5.0.0 is based on 0.4.16, not 0.4.17. 0.4.17 was created by backporting changes from the development branch of 5.0.0
Highlights
- Add online content repository (games, mods, modpacks, texture packs)
- Add Carpathian mapgen
- Automatic jumping
- Android: Rewritten controls. Add joystick and modify up on-screen buttons
- Mods and games can be translated
- Rename 'subgame' to 'game'
- Modding: More node drawtypes: disconnected nodeboxes (more ways to create connected blocks),
plantlike_rooted(for underwater plants) - Modding: Custom player collision box
- Modding: A great deal of new map generator features
- Modding: Allow to rotate entities in all 3 axes
New Version Scheme
Basically, the leading 0 has been dropped. The version scheme was thus changed from
ZERO.MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
(note: PATCH was left out when it was 0) to
MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
.
This was chosen for a few reasons:
- Shows that we aim to keep inter-version compatibility (which has mostly been the case since early 0.4.x)
- Allows us to release patch/bug fix only releases without adding a silly 4th number
- Doesn't imply that this version is the first stable/finished version as much as a 1.0.0 does.
For some context, read the issue that resulted in this change.
Breaking changes and deprecations
As a major release, 5.0.0 will break some mods written for 0.4.x versions. We tried to keep the breakages as small as possible whilst fixing long standing issues.
- Minetest now uses C++11 instead of C++03, make sure you have a compatible system (Windows Vista, Debian 8, Ubuntu 16.04, CentOS 7, macOS 10.7, …)
- Breaks network compatibility with 0.4.x. 0.4.x clients won't be able to connect to 5.x servers and vice-versa. Fix: update clients and servers to 5.x
- Attachment and player positions have been shifted by 1 node, to allow support for custom player selection boxes. Fix: update default and player_api, subtract
10from any attachment positions, shift the origin of player models to the feet - Formspec theming using prepended strings. This may cause wrong backgrounds to appear on formspecs. Fix: see https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=20646
- depends.txt and description.txt have been deprecated. Fix: use description, depends, and optional_depends in mod.conf, game.conf, or texture_pack.conf instead
- modpack.txt has been deprecated. Fix: rename to or add modpack.conf.
- Use of deprecated methods such as object:setpos() is now warned about. Fix: replace them with correct functions
- player:get/set_attribute() is now deprecated. Fix: use player:get_meta() instead
- nodeupdate() was removed. Fix: replace with minetest.check_for_falling.
- Clouds API: changed speed param from 'y' to 'z'
- Player inventory list "hand" must now be manually initialized by mods (using set_size)
- Some client-side scripting functions were removed (see below)
Note that a function being deprecated means that it still exists, but it may give a warning when used and may be removed in future. Deprecations are necessary to improve the consistency and efficiency of our API
