Re: Is there a library that lets me use a wait() function?

Do you simply need something like Javascript's setTimeout?

Take a look at kikito's cron library.

Re: Fast JSON lib for big files ?

Glad it worked out for you. I've been rallying against using JSON in the Lua community for a while now. There's no reason* to use JSON unless you're dealing with a web API or program that uses JSON. Also, if for some reason you must return to JSON, dkjson is about 2-3x faster than json4lua in my tes...

Re: Fast JSON lib for big files ?

Why do you have to use JSON? Try serializing as Lua or msgpack. luamsgpack has the advantage of a very fast decoder, much faster than any pure Lua json library that I tried. Or by using Lua, you get a fast C parser with no extra dependencies. Secondly, regardless of encoding, the data scheme of Dyna...

Re: love.graphics.newImage not working

textrues should be textures. That is:

Code: Select all

      image = love.graphics.newImage('textrues/images/enemys/ID_2/ID_2.png'),
should be:

Code: Select all

      image = love.graphics.newImage('textures/images/enemys/ID_2/ID_2.png'),
You spelled enemies incorrectly as well, but if ID_1 is working then who cares.

Re: How Come Folders Can't Have a Dot in their Name?

In the example.love it's a Lua problem (require blindly replaces . with the system separator). The easiest solution, in Lua, is to use loadfile . I suspect it is not Love's fault because assert(love.filesystem.exists('Folder.with.dots/File.lua')) works perfectly fine, for instance. Your example requ...

Re: love.graphics.newImage hanging

Solution: Use a threaded image loader.

Question: how many/how big of images are you loading? 1-5s delay is quite long.

Re: New subforum for libraries?

Maybe it could be a subforum?

Projects & Demos
-> Libraries

It'd probably make searching through easier.

Re: So, how's that Bump-based platformer coming along, Jasoc

There are many animated and moving things, it feels very alive. Looks very nice, Jasoco. Not unexpected as all the projects you've shown look nice.

The light flicker is painful for my eyes, though.

Re: Memory Leak?

It's not an issue with Love. The garbage is coming from the backpack.draw function. It looks like you keep adding buttons forever. I end up with about 2000 buttons in backpack.buttons.list in a few seconds. You need to remove them from the list as you add more. Comment it out on line 188 of main.lua...
