Re: Graphics Editor of Choice?

I never liked GIMP either when I started using it, because I was used to some other program. But then when I got my Mac, I couldn't use that program anymore, so I had no choice but to sit and endure GIMP. And now, I don't want to go without it anymore. Somebody gave me a copy of Photoshop, but I sti...

Re: Character with animation

There are several ways to do it. If your going to put the animation frames in a table, then at least just do it like: love.load() animation = {} animation[1] = love.graphics.newImage('anim1.png') animation[2] = love.graphics.newImage('anim2.png') animation[3] = love.graphics.newImage('anim3.png') en...

Re: GameLoading: A Documentary!

Some of them are, but I can also quite easily see it become the next 'bubble'. More and more people see the success of indie games, more people try and make their own fortune. As that goes on, crowdfunding will be taken over by other funding, they will spends insane amounts on games that don't even ...

Re: How do I Combine Keypresses?

You can do that by introducing an extra variable. function love.update(dt) if love.keyboard.isDown('r') and love.keyboard.isDown('lctrl') and not hasRespawned then hasRespawned = true -- now this chunk will not execute next frame -- do respawn code end end function love.keyreleased(key) if key == 'r...

Re: How do I Combine Keypresses?

Yes, but does that return true if all or if any of those keys are down? In other words, does it act like an and or like an or?

Re: How do I Combine Keypresses?

that doesn't work like that, because key in love.keypressed only ever holds 1 value: that of the last pressed key. To do this, use love.keyboard.isDown , which you can call in the love.update function. Something like this: if love.keyboard.isDown('lctrl') and love.keyboard.isDown('r') then -- do thi...

Re: Whatever happened to the unicorns?

I could never really decide who is 'best pony', but Rarity is pretty close.

Then again, Fluttershy...

Ah, but talking about unicorns, there's also our dearest Twilight Sparkle.
