Minetestについて全般的な情報

Minetest is a free open world game for almost all operating systems. In randomly generated worlds consisting of blocks, the player can extract different resources, combine them with each other and shape the world according to his or her liking. Minetest is very similar to other sandbox computer games like Infiniminer and Minecraft. The game doesn't actually have a goal or an end, but the focus is on constructing buildings from blocks. However, it is also possible to construct a world in such a way that certain goals must be achieved, depending on what is desired. Technically, the minetest engine is particularly focused on two goals. The game content should be easily modifiable and extensible by Mods and should also work on older and new machines.

なぜMinecraftではなくMinetestなのでしょうか?

Minecraft is much better known and many children and teenagers are already playing it. So why use Minetest? Here are a few arguments:

Contra:

• Getting a server on the Internet is not as easy as it is for Minecraft. There are only providers for this and you have to administrate your own server by hand, because there are no graphical interfaces, as is the case with Minecraft.

Pro:

• It's free because it's open source and it's going to stay open.
• It runs on almost all operating systems and devices ... except iOS systems.
• From all versions (also from the tablet) you can usually visit the same servers.

Minecraftからの移行がとても簡単な理由

• What you can do in Minecraft is generally the same way you can do it in Minetest (sometimes better or more simple).
• The operation is almost identical to Minecraft, so even changers shouldn't have any problems.
• There are tools to convert Minecraft Worlds into Minetest Worlds.

Minecraftユーザーに起こると予想される間違いについて

The biggest mistake you can make with Minetest is to consider only the naked system you get with the installation. Because Minetest is (almost) nothing without the extensions (Mods) and games. The main developers are very reluctant to stick to fixed features. But extending Minetest is much easier than it is with Minecraft if you're not an absolute computer layman.

On this page we have therefore gathered information to help you learn about important enhancements that make Minetest a fully-fledged replacement for Minecraft. Surely it will take some time before a minetest variant will be released, which will make it easy for teachers with little personal experience to manage larger numbers of students. The fact that there is no company behind Minetest will certainly have an impact. That's how community members develop what they like ... sometimes better than in Minecraft... but here and there there is a lack of details.

However, this collection of information here is intended to enable technically interested teachers to use Minetest by assembling all necessary information. You are welcome to add your own information. Everyone is invited to attend.

ダウンロード、インストール、初めてのゲーム

There are two ways to get a first impression of Minetest:

• you create a local singleplayer World and try and play around with it
• you visit one of the servers specified in the public server list

The first variation is probably better for beginners, as they can play alone in peace and quiet. The servers show examples of heavily expanded minetest variants and are therefore especially suitable for those who already know Minecraft and have certain expectations.

• Detailed instructions for the first use of Minetest in a Singleplayer World
  • Informations have to have a special map for your game
  • Installation of a tutorial game to learn how to use Minetest
  • How not to get lost on the Minetest map
  • Use a Texture Pack if you want to have a special look
• General informations about Minetest servers
  • Short tutorial for students to visit a server
  • What is allowed and what is not
• Informations how to improve the velocity at Minetest

Minetest offers the possibility to simply create a local server that can be used with other users that are in the same LAN/WLAN. This is very useful for schools or if you meet with other in a foreign location.

• How to use Minetest as a local server

拡張機能(Mod)のインストール

Anything that Minetest doesn't seem to offer in comparison to Minecraft can be inserted into Minetest via an extension or modification, called Mod. That seems awkward, but it's so easy that it's no problem again. You just have to find the right mod.

• Installation of a Mod for you Singleplayer World
• Installation of a Mod on a server (see section on setting up a server)

Modの種類

The exact number of mods is not known. There is a list of more than 700 mods, but it is certainly not complete, because anyone can create a mod and publish it anywhere. The effect of the mods may be classified as following:

• The user interface changes or other "machines" (like the oven) are offered which can replace the simple ones that are included.
• New blocks are made available for constructions.
• New materials (rock types, minerals, etc.) are created during the creation of the world, that can be used for blocks.
• When the world is created, more or other plants and biomes (a local ecosystem with special dirt and plants) are created. Sometime you can use this new material to build blocks or items.
• New items like tools to dig, hoe, chop or new weapons are added.
• Mobs (self-acting creatures, in humans, animals or monster form) that can interact with the player are supplemented.
• Change the environment completely (e.g. play on the planet Mars)
• Prepared buildings will be added (villages with inhabitants, abandoned mines, pyramids, ...)

A lot of the Mods offer combinations of the possibilities.

重要なModの選択

Minetest offers a lot of mods, but there is no good overview showing the most important and big mods as well as the newest one. The following overview sorts some tested mods according to their meaning and provides information about the content and how to use them.

IMPORTANT If you want to setup a Server you should only have short view on the Mod-list to see what is possible. Some of decribed features can be even done by adjusting the server configuration. This will be described later. If you are a Singleplayer try out what you want and have fun.

インターネット上のMinetestサーバーの設定

If you want to work with a group of children it is a good idea to have you own Server in the internet.

So far there are not yet any good providers where you can quickly order and set up a minetest server. One reason for this is that the installation of mods is usually necessary and you have to access the remote computer. While Minecraft now has graphical user interfaces, Minetest requires everything to be done from the console.

• What kind of Server do I need?
• Installation of Minetest on a Linux server
• Installation of Mod for the server
• Copy a singleplayer world to the internet server

If you have successfully installed the Minetest server and can also reach it with the local Minetest client, you should make some settings which are mainly about protecting the server from unauthorized access. This can be done not only by mods but also by settings in a special file.

• Informations about minetest.conf and usefull settings
• Make the server visible in the public server list
• About the file auth.txt
• Define the Texture Pack used on your server

If the server is set up correctly, it can start. If you share the server address or point to the server in the public server list, other users will come to the server and so it may happen that you have to intervene as an administrator. So here are some important commands and options you have as admin.

• Server commands for the admin
• Protect areas on the server
• Enable automatic transports on the map

Now the server is hopefully perfectly set up and all players and the admin are pleased. Surely there is always something to do, many of those things can be done when you are on the minetest server yourself. But some things can only be done on the console and if you automate them, you can save yourself a lot of work.

• Automatic Backup
• Automatic restart after the Server crashed
• Startscripts to run different worlds with one installation
• Have several worlds on the same server running simultaneously

ユニバーサルツールとしてのコマンドブロック

Command blocks are special blocks that can be used to execute text commands that are otherwise entered manually. With it you can automate a lot and relieve the admin of work or do a lot of other things... as you need it.
