Love 0.7 is coming out soon yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-

[Robin]

so is Game Slave from Invader Zim?

If you'd been in IRC, maybe you'd know.

Damn you, I broke X, so I'm using my mom's laptop for the time being, my new laptop (which I need for college) will arrive Monday or thereabout. So.

Also: thank you, Duck Duck Go.

If I use the lua file, what's the Copyright whatever on it?

Consider it public domain (there is not much creativity involved in copying formulas off a wikipedia article... ).

Also, how many buffers can we have saved in memory?

Depends on how big your memory is (as far as I know).

How many canvases can we have hidden for drawing to for later?

Depends on how many you can hold in memory...

And can they be bigger than the screen?

Yes and no. You can create a framebuffer of any size, but it basically acts like a (resized) screenshot. Nobody will stop you from using love.graphics.scale though.
For example, you could create a framebuffer with size double of the game window and set the scale to 1/2 to effectively have a canvas that extends the screen.

Actually, shouldn't it be CC BY-SA then?

or textbook ...

Unless that textbook was open-source, that might be even worse.

Seems that Color.lua file doesn't work the way you would expect with images. i.e. I can't shift the hue of an image or remove its saturation like I would be able to if it were a built-in function. Does OpenGL allow images to be drawn with shifted hue or saturation?

Basically you could do this:

KateHSL.jpg (115.25 KiB) Viewed 1963 times

I would make it so it accepted Photoshop-like values. -180 to 180 for Hue (But make it wrap around so 181 would be the same as -179 since -180 is the same as 180. 0 would be no change.) Saturation in Photoshop technically accepts -100 to 100 with 0 being normal and -100 being greyscale and 100 being over-saturated. And Lightness, rather than Value from -100 being completely black/dark to 100 being completely white/light.

The only breakage is that text now draws from the top-left rather that how it is now.

As someone who's done more text rendering in Löve than I'd like...



I assume the new love.focus callback is for detecting when the window looses and gains focus. This should be nice.

What does "love.filesystem.FileData for public usage" mean though?

[bartbes]

There used to be a love.filesystem.FileData object, but it was not available in lua (in fact all the wrappers were even written!), for most people FileData won't be of much benefit, but they do provide a way to create data from a string.

YouTube embedding wasn't broken, you were just doing it wrong.
