Realtime filesysten [WINDOWS]

Hi, Maybe you recognise me from the "support and development" subforum, where I asked about the love.filesystem.* . It turns out that those are only relative to the game/save directory, I needed something to make files externally so I came up with those utilities to check if something exis...

Re: Love.filesystem problems.

love.filesystem is not designed to be a general purpose filesystem API. It does what it is meant to do very well, and it's hardly useless in the context of games. :) I don't recommend using LÖVE as a traditional music player. You could, but not all tools are designed for all purposes, and you'll ha...

Well that is quite useless, honestly.

Re: ST2 Build System doesn't work

Make sure that the exe can reach the .DLL files, those are very important :P

Love.filesystem problems.

Hello there, Currently I am trying to write a proper Music Player (I tried that in the past but then I had zero experience with Löve), but I am completely stumped. It seems that the love.filesystem.[exists|isDirectory|isFile] are definitely incorrect. I have tried it with the attached love zip, but ...

Instead, you should write this:

Code: Select all

 tUnit:new({ ... })
That is the same as writing this:

Code: Select all

 tUnit.new(tUnit, { ... })

Code: Select all

 tUnit:new { } 
This is also valid.

Re: Get sound points.

Too bad.. :/
Though I think there should be an option for it in the future, but that is not up to me. That is up for the people who can code in C++ and are interested in this.

Oh well, then that saves me some time on the music player. Thanks for your reply!

Re: How did you find LÖVE?

At first, I was coding in Lua for about ~one year and got kinda bored of it. I coded for the minecraft mod 'ComputerCraft.' It is pretty awesome!
I joined the forums from that mod and some guys posted about LÖVE and lately I gave it a shot. It is very awesome :D
