Can't require windfield

Post by Jimmyneuson »

Im trying to require the windfield library but it says that it can't find the module windfield. I'm using love 0.6.2 and here is the project https://github.com/Jimmyneuson/loveproject

LÖVE 0.6.2 is so old that it doesn't support checking for a modulename/init.lua file when require("modulename") is called.

Is there a particular reason you're using 0.6.2 instead of a more modern version? Coincidentally 0.6.2 turned 10 years old today, and there have been five major versions and nine minor versions released since then.

Im using windows xp sp3 and the latest version didn't work so i just used the oldest version i found. Is there a newer version i can use that does support this?

0.10.2 is the latest version that officially supports XP. Windfield probably works with it, but I'm not sure; its github repo makes no mention of target love2d version as far as I can see, and 11.0 came out about two years ago. That roughly lines up with the timing when windfield was last updated.
