this clientside mod interprets and logs certain types of player interactions, so that these logs can be used by external programs.
|
|
it was made to be used in combination with a python program and Intiface to add rumble support to minetest.
|
|
for now it only reacts to player damage and death, writing a vibration strength and duration into the logs.
|
|
|
|
installing clientside mods is not very well documented and varies between clients.
|
|
|
|
this forum post explains it quite ok https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=17830
|
|
|
|
1) Navigate to your minetest directory and create a directory (aka a folder) called clientmods if it does not exist.
|
|
|
|
2) Download or clone the mod into the clientmods directory.
|
|
|
|
3) Create a text file called mods.conf inside the clientmods directory if it does not exist. this should be in the same directory that has debug.txt in it.
|
|
|
|
4) Open mods.conf in your favorite text editor and add the line "load_mod_rumble = true" (without the quotation marks). Save the file.
|
|
|
|
5) Open Minetest and navigate to the Settings tab. Select All Settings. Navigate to Client > Network > Client modding or search for "client". With Client modding selected, select the Edit button and change the displayed option to Enabled in the dropdown, or simply double-click the setting. Save your changes. Note: on some clients this setting my be called enable_client_modding instead of Client modding.

installation instructions for the external programs that are intended to be used with this clientside mod:
|
|
|
|
1) make sure you have python 3 installed. for windows users I recommend installing it through the microsoft store: https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9PJPW5LDXLZ5
|
|
|
|
2) open a command prompt.
|
|
|
|
3) type "pip install buttplug", press enter, and wait. this will install the buttplug library needed to run this program.
|
|
|
|
4) make sure you have Intiface installed to connect to your favourite rumble device. you can install it from here: https://intiface.com/desktop
|

How to run the programs as intended:
|
|
|
|
1) start intiface and connect your rumble device. intiface tutorials can be found on their website https://intiface.com/desktop
|
|
|
|
2) open a command prompt.
|
|
|
|
3) in the command prompt, navigate to the directory that has the minetest_intiface.py file in it. this should be in the rumble mod. if you've never used a command line before I recommend asking a friend or google how to do this.
|
|
|
|
3) type "python3 minetest_intiface.py" and press enter to start running the python code from the minetest directory.
|
|
|
|
4) start minetest.
|
|
|
|
5) join or start a server to start playing.
