Re: Button Library Review

Hmm this post should be in the libraries and tools section, this subforum is more for asking questions about love2d and problems during development. Would be nice to have a github or bitbucket of the library to check and easily clone the code. The library seems nice, could be a good compliment to ot...

Re: Using sprites to create a map

Im just guessing, but you probably have a lot of sprites and drawing them one by one with a call to love.graphics.draw which is bad for performance since each love.graphics.draw generates a call to the gpu.

Re: Shmup Game: Gunnier Zed demo with 7 stages

Looks neat, really like Pico-8 and is similar to love2d in some aspects so porting is not that hard, just find it a little weird that enemy bullets fly over the UI panel on the right side.

Re: How to disable uppercase in love.textinput ?

Dont know much about about text input, but i guess you can transform the string thats giving you troubles all to UPPERCASE or all to lowercase so you dont have to worry about that. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3202531/making-all-the-characters-in-a-string-lowercase-in-lua Its a workaround, ho...

Re: [anim8] attempt to call method draw (nil value)

Change local walk = love.graphics.newImage("turtle_walking.png") to walk = love.graphics.newImage("turtle_walking.png") If walk is local it cant be reached outside of love.load, only use local for variables that you wont need outside of their code block, still use local whenever ...
