SelfDotX is correct. Class libraries, including the one in HUMP, tend to support an 'init' method that gets called automatically when the object is first created (i.e. by the Player() call here).

I know what you mean. I remember when I initially tried to figure out this very problem in one program. It took longer than it really should have.

What kind of shadows? Is the game 2D or 3D? Side-scrolling or top-down? How simple or complex should they be? Are they static or dynamic? One light source or multiple? There are many things to consider. There's no "best" way - only different ways, producing different results. Recent thread...

You have to use the last scale value to calculate the difference between the old and new scale origins for the new offset. Here's an updated drawOffscreen() and love.wheelmoved(): local panX, panY = 0, 0 local function drawOffscreen() local settings = PDS.GetSettings() love.graphics.setCanvas(oScree...

I did some testing in the code. In the shader, changing love_Canvases[0] = vec4(fragmentColour.rgb * noise, fragmentColour.a); to love_Canvases[0] = fragmentColour; reveals that the output color is the same no matter if gamma correction is enabled or not (the ground is a bright green), so the gamma ...

Gamma correction tend to make the result brighter. Are you sure it's not correct?

Note that Texel() expects normalized coordinates which texture_coords is, but screen_coords is in pixels. If resolution is in pixels then both floor(texture_coords/resolution) and floor(screen_coords/resolution) will round to 0 most of the time, so you're sampling the same pixel.

Unfortunately I'm a bit of a Linux noob. It could be a LÖVE installation issue. Check out this thread where they encountered the same kind of error.

No problem.

No, it's not that to much memory is used, I was trying to understand why memory was used. Again, in my mind I was manipulating a fixed set of bytes (pixels) and didn't understand why every circle() I drew incurred more and more memory. It makes more sense now that I know draw calls are buffered and...
