Using 2d background or 3d? i might be able to help youAlmost got torches working!
I just have to figure out how to make them shine upwards...
I'm using a 2D tiled Background, but nevermind, I got it working finally.
Now I just need to make it work so that I can remove the torches and update light properly (while not requiring a WHOLE chunk update).

why not using a small array containing the light rate of each tile? it can be updated when moving and not consuming many ressources if managed propoerly
So that when you add a light, you add a certain value of light to the tile, when you take it off, just lower the value by the same amount

Hrm, I don't think I made my self clear enough.
Here is a part of world.h
I am using a brightness array, I was just having trouble with the compution of the actual light values.
I got it working fine on a whole chunk basis, but that's kinda slow for when I just add a single torch. (Not too slow for loading a map however!)
I was having trouble writeing the updateBrightnessAround(x,y) function...
Anyways, I eventually wrote that function and got it working well...
I'm quite happy with torches now,and am going to fix the slow down as I approach the end of the map bug... Just fixed it!

Oh yeah, I just thought in case you wanted more item slots in chests, you could also make it consume an invisible space above it like to allow it to open and then you could make the invisible space another entity to store more values. I know in real Minecraft you cannot open a chest unless a transparent block is above it (including air), but you could just make nothing be allowed there to use the block's int values for the chest.
WOW!
That's a fantastic idea, I can't believe i didn't think of that.
If I actually need to implement chests like that, I probably will.
However MineDS (The thing I'm rewriting) will not need that, as mobs/entity's can load and save as much data as they want.

Yep, I did and here is a pic of me showing it in action:
NOTE: This is ALREADY old!
For me, it's just that I've been playing the real minecraft way too much.
For ray however:
Really?
I'd really like some help on this project.
If you need help setting up the environment or learning some C(++) just PM me.

I like the torches, by the way.
Lol. Yeah, this topic got a bit long/cluttered so starting a new topic would be ideal. And for Ray, it sounds like he's just getting lazy in my opinion. Let me go unfriend him...
Does this have multiplayer yet?
Not nagging, I'm just too lazy to look through all the pages and stuff.

No, not yet.
Please stop asking about it.
We know you want it and I actually want it myself, and it IS on my TODO list.
Also, you only have to look at the first page of this topic to find out whether we have released a new version, that might include multiplayer

Probably, however I might have to make a new thread because Ray has quit, I can't edit the first post.
But the first post of either this thread, or the coming thread will be changed to say that multiplayer is in the game.

I found it funny cause many many years ago, had a roommate in college that did this same dumbass branding of the school logo, but it didn't look anything like it after it healed. Just looked like a birthmark.
