I tried to simplify the handling of the corner cases while avoiding dealing with angles as much as possible. local abs, sin, cos, sqrt, min, max = math.abs, math.sin, math.cos, math.sqrt, math.min, math.max function intersect(cx, cy, cr, sx, sy, sr, a1, a2) cx, cy = (cx - sx) / sr, (cy - sy) / sr lo...

Yes, you could also do this using a shader but I don't know whether it'd be slower or faster (assuming you're using OpenCL on the GPU). The main problem with your approach is that the kernel is doing a lot or redundant work. It is possible to separate the circle into parts that can be computed separ...

I like what I've seen of the game so far :) Nitpicks: After some very poor purchasing decisions and getting wrecked by pirates I started a new game and encountered this crash: $ love Sea\ Traders\ v2.love [ALSOFT] (EE) Failed to set real-time priority for thread: Operation not permitted (1) [ALSOFT]...

The "real" problem with your code is that the movement of the ground and the pipes isn't precisely tied together. The nearest filter just makes it more visible. For updating of pipeX you use: pipeX = pipeX - GROUND_SCROLL_SPEED * dt if (pipeX < -PIPE_WIDTH) then pipeX = WIDTH end But pipeX...

You mean you'd like the ball to leave a trail on the screen? Assuming that the ball is white and the background is black, one simple way of doing that would be to override love.run with a modified version. Instead of calling love.graphics.clear(...) to clear the screen on each frame, you can tempora...

Looks like the name of _tex0_ changed. Adding the following line did the trick: uniform vec2 inputSize; uniform vec2 outputSize; uniform vec2 textureSize; #define _tex0_ MainTex // <- #define SCANLINES I just took a guess at what inputs the shader needs to get something to show up on the screen, so ...

I tried just writing a reply, but describing it in English seems harder to me than actually doing it, so instead I modified the example in the wiki to render in 3D and explained the changes with comments. -- I've changed the size of the triangle to 1/8 so I don't need -- to scale it down in the 3D s...

You can do that by rendering to a small canvas and then drawing the canvas to the screen at a larger scale. Attached to this reply is an example that hopefully does what you want: https://love2d.org/imgmirrur/IrWZ14h.png If you want even rougher edges you can set mssa to zero in the code. While load...

Thanks to all of you for reproducing the problem and having a look at it! ReFreezed : It seems to me that for my use case the multiple arguments/returns solution is not a good match. It doesn't solve the problem of efficiently allocating large data structures containing many vecs/matrices/whatever a...

Hello, I'll start with some background info: driven by curiosity I've been working on a small FPS without external libraries. I've got a first prototype working (video on imgur) with all the linear algebra stuff written in plain lua. Although it's running fine on a desktop PC (~25% of one core) with...
