Only a single program was used to safely compress all textures in MTG.
* `optipng -o7 -zm1-9 -nc -strip all -clobber %%f`
The key command used is -nc, which stops color mode changes. I.e. any RGBA textures will remain RGBA textures, with none being changes to 8-bit indexed mode.
utils/optimize_textures.sh performs this compression automatically, assuming optipng is installed.
This fixes all cases where the color profile was broken, and
libpng warns about. It also makes almost all textures indexed
instead of RGB where possible (textures that don't have
semi-transparent pixels).
This changes the drawtype of fences to NDT_CONNECTED nodebox drawtype.
These nodes are drawn by the client with the needed connections on
the fly as the scene is drawn. There is no logic needed by mods to
modify the nodes.
These fences connect to (1) other fences, (2) planks and (3) tree
trunks, but nothing else. They do not connect to stone, dirt, wool,
etc. This is done by the "connects_to" parameter, which takes groups
and node names.
Due to the way textures are wrapped, we can make these nodes look a
lot better by giving them a special tile.
This change requires minetest/minetest#3503.
