Xbox360 controller dpad and/or analog sticks

Hello, I'm currently working on a game for the adventuretime gamejam and am in quite a hurry to get the xbox 360 controller working. All the buttons seems to be working fine, but I don't know how to get input from the dpad and/or analog sticks. I've read that the triggers won't work properly if you'...

Re: Xinput for Love (Real Xbox controller support) BETA

I've tried the updated love.exe, but that throws an error:
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc00007b)

error loading module XInputLua.dll from file '.\XinputLua.dll' %1 is not a valid win32 application
I'm using windows 7 64bit

Re: How to Protect a Resulting .Exe?

I've seen some love games submitted to steam greenlight, did you try some sort of protection?

Yes, you're not saving any effort if you're re-adding tile every single draw step. SpriteBatches (and Canvases) are way more effective if you have static data and thus don't redraw (to them) often . I'd also like to explain why putting your spritebatch on a canvas doesn't help, because you're still...

Hello, After hearing about love2d a while ago I decided to give it a go, and I am absolutely in love! Anyway, I'm writing a basic tilebased platform engine, and have been experimenting what could be the best method to draw a tilegrid. I have 3 options all with 30x15 tiles on screen.
