VoxeLibre are keen to change and adapt. The game is inspired by MC, but we’re going to add ideas in we think are good, whether they’re from MC or externally. Likewise, if something new is added into MC we do not like, we may not introduce. We do discuss Game Design in our Matrix / Discord. A feature “being in MC” is not a strong enough reason to justify a change.

Mineclonia are more keen to keep things in line with MC.

Effectively, both projects have different goals and over time will diverge more. It ultimately depends what you value most as to which project will work for you.

We have some info in our readme here: https://git.minetest.land/VoxeLibre/VoxeLibre/src/branch/master/README.md

Some info in an FAQ we’re building: https://git.minetest.land/VoxeLibre/VoxeLibre/issues/4585

That’s probably more related to Luanti (formerly Minetest) game engine as it handles most of that.

Sorry for the delayed response. You sure can. You can either play the game and host it (and ensure the correct ports are opened) or run the game as a server, and connect it. I’m not personally too familiar on how to do that, but a few in our discord / matrix are quite good at that and could answer any questions.

You seem to not like the name or the things we do. Maybe tell us more about what you like…

We had the poll on Matrix also which is FOSS, and our issue tracker built on Gitea. The minetest forums are notoriously sluggish and many there don’t play VoxeLibre. We reached out to players in all areas. The fact remains that 80%+ of our players choose discord and ignoring them is not a helpful. A lot of people do not check the forum frequently, and that policy would be exclusionary and unjustifiably dogmatic.

We make extra efforts to reach out to our members in FOSS communities and do more than most to keep away from non-free software like Github and keep our channels bridged to matrix.

I can assure you the effort is non trivial and takes away from actually writing open source software. Very recently it lost all the data and we had to manually bridge 15+ channels again when I had waay too much other stuff going on. Many projects abandon these bridges because they are unreliable.

It was done by a poll on Discord, Matrix, and our issue tracker. I think over 120 votes were cast. It was a polling majority…

I’ve said goodbye to the MineCraft I once knew, if we want something better, we make it, improve it and share it! :)

I think the other response was quite accurate. Different language and architecture makes it harder. There are mods made for minetest that can work with MineClone2, so there may be some stuff you’ll enjoy, but usually they have to specify it’s available for MineClone2. Here is a page if you want to have a look: https://content.minetest.net/packages/Wuzzy/mineclone2/hub/

Minetest modding is actually quite nice to do from what I’ve heard.
