Hi i'm new here!
I'm starting now to learn LUA Code.

Also I'm kinda confused with installing Love Frames. It just says "Download the source from the repo. Place the source in a folder of it's own and then place that folder anywhere within your project." Can someone give me a guide with images so I can understand how to install it please?

Thanks!

Just download loveframes and put it inside the source folder. But if you are this new to Lua(not all caps.) I would recommend reading the PIL http://www.lua.org/pil/. It will help you understand how loading modules and all that works.

Where can I find this source folder at?

Source folder is a folder you make that holds your main.lua and other code files and game assets.

I tried to follow the instructions on LoveFrames but I see that LOVE doesn't have the dlls and such?

That means the path you passed to require was wrong. Post a screen shot of the directory for the source

For one, you want to require "libraries.loveframes", but your folder is named "LoveFrames-master", so you need to do this instead:

Code: Select all

require "LoveFrames-master"

On the other hand, it might be a "windows hiding files by default" thing, but i believe there should be a few more files next to love.exe that are needed for it to run; You didn't just copypaste the file to your projects folder in documents, right? Nevermind, as s0lll0s said, it's a link, and i'm blind

It's not love.exe, it's a shortcut to love.exe which is probably in PATH even, so it should work.
