Re: sh + love bundled in one file - is this intended behaviour?

It'd need to provide the exact same thing as a (perhaps unpacked) appimage of love at that point, right? Since you'd also want all of love's dependencies to be the version you made your game for as well otherwise you'll run into similar problems. <snip> I'm not sure how any of that is relevant when...

Re: sh + love bundled in one file - is this intended behaviour?

I don't think this is usually true. As a game developer you wouldn't want to rely on a global install of love on someone else's system having a version that's coincidentally compatible with your code. And if you use something like Unity instead of love and it somehow allowed that (which it doesn't)...

Re: sh + love bundled in one file - is this intended behaviour?

At the end of the file, zip files always have a directory followed by a footer. The footer indicates where to find the directory, relative to the end of the file, and the directory can also find the actual compressed files in the same way. So, you can append a zip file to any file, and the result wi...

Re: Gradients (gradient as fill)

I make gradients with a 2x1 image and a quad. local gradientData = love.image.newImageData(2, 1, 'rgba8', '\255\000\000' .. '\255' .. '\000\255\000' .. '\255') local gradient = love.graphics.newImage(gradientData) gradient:setFilter('linear', 'linear') local gradientQuad = love.graphics.newQuad(0.5,...

Re: Method doesn't see self variable when called by other method (hump.class)

This should be slightly faster than using that metatable mechanism, since it doesn't need the double-lookup (looking up the key on the "instance" table, not finding it, then looking it up on the __index table). In fact I'm thinking of going with this on some speed-critical code. Apparentl...

Re: Native open/save dialogs for Windows

Note that Lua's strings are always in bytes, so if you try to print() something to the console and that something has UTF-8 encoding, it will look strange, but that's just the console interpreting it as ASCII: preview02.png I believe you can fix that with 'chcp 65001'. Note also that you need to se...

Re: I can't get rid of the blurred text

Looks sharp to me as well, though a bit small. I used this font: https://github.com/rsms/inter/releases/download/v4.0/Inter-4.0.zip (after unzipping, it's the one in extras/ttf/Inter-Regular.ttf) Are you sure that's all the code? Aren't you using love.graphics.scale or anything? I used this (copied ...

Re: Http requests

It sounds like a wrong DLL. Either wrong bits (32 vs 64) or this ssl.dll is not the one expected by LuaSec.
