what shouldn't i do again? im kinda confused sorry

I'd advise against using the lua io library in any capacity, and sticking to love.filesystem wherever possible. One issue you may be having is that you haven't opened the file in binary mode, causing the io lib/windows to completely break the file you're saving out. Guess what, love.filesystem does...

is there a possible way to use this string:

ImageData: 0x375fc192f0

Explain what you mean by the way you planned, please. What does it do? what did you expect it to do? sorry again, i didnt read your comment carefully. what i planned is file = io.open("image.jpg","w+") file:write(tostring(data)) --data is the filedata of the image dragged and dr...

i have a simple saving mechanism where i write the data using file:write() in a lua file(settings.lua) upon a certain event. then if you start the program, the main.lua would load data from settings.lua. for boolean, numbers and strings, it works quite fine. now i have a love.filedropped function an...

If you're running an executable (rather than a .love file), then the file location would be Appdata/Roaming/svdir/imageX.jpg But if not, could you post a picture of your imageX.jpg file with the location on top?

how do you access files from the save directory (im using windows so appdata)?

if the file is inside the source folder, you just have to do is: but what will i do if the file is in the save directory?
