Missing variables are those which are declared but not used. Say, you have a LIGHT_STRENGTH uniform. Even if you assign something to it, or even if you calculate some values using it, but won't actually use those to get the resulting value, then it'll get dismissed from a shader. GPU doesn't care fo...

Thanks, @pgimeno , Turns out, I needed to use TWO canvases: local canvas = love.graphics.newCanvas(1024,1024) local SFBO = love.graphics.newCanvas(1024,1024, {readable=true, format = "depth24"}) and then function love.draw() love.graphics.setCanvas({canvas, depth=true, depthstencil=SFBO}) ...

Not sure where to put this, but I guess w/o g3d this loses any context (plus it might be useful for others?) Also, sorry for double-posting ( I think it's justified in this case?) and for a long post. TL;DR I can't understand this article I'm mentioning below, but I want shadows. Long story: I've fi...

@pgimeno Thanks a ton! While the debugging yields info that I can't yet decode, it's useful to know how it all works and possibly apply some "universal" GLSL knowledge in the future. For now I can compare shades that are being produced by different "inputs" :awesome: @groverburge...

Can anyone explain why all tutorials on GLSL have this main() function but love2d works with effects? Should I assume that the entire file will be included into main() ? But main has no real return value, since it's void. Seems like I'm googling it wrong, 'cause I can't find a simple example of ambi...

Both stutter for me. The project seems to be extremely sensitive to any other GPU/CPU load. 1st of all, from love2d wiki: Constantly updating the window title can lead to issues on some systems and therefore is discouraged. But even without that the framerate is inconsistent. I moved the box out of ...

Wait, is is all about ffmpeg version now?
Thanks for the info!
/me went to search for a reliable encoder

Edit
/me found the -r X FFmpeg option. Enforces X fps on the initial file, resulting in no artifacts and working loops

Yeah, I tried that. It works sometimes - just like the original code :( Will try to make a longer clip, maybe that'll fix the issue. BTW, I can't do this either if not video:isPlaying() then video:release() video = love.graphics.newVideo("bgv1.ogv", {audio="true"}) video:play() e...

Hey there! I'm using love2d v 11.4 (built on windows using megasource) and have some weird issue with play() method of a video. The code is so simple, IDK whether I'm dumb or blind: if not video:isPlaying() then video:seek(0) video:play() end The thing is, video gets stuck in zero time position and ...

@4vZEROv Yeah, I can read :) Not sure why people think comments like that will help. Especially since I'm dumb. The question implied I'd like to know why the thing isn't defined when it clearly (to me anyway) is. Whether that was a joke or a genuine attempt to help - it flew way over my head. I am t...
