My .love file won't play :|

Post by nightvenom »

I compiled my project /thing into a .rar/.zip file, then edited the file type to .love, when it was in folder form it would play fine, but now when i double click the .love file it just flickers the love screen on for like half a second,not even, without even loading.

I'm stuck here, my game.conf file says

Code: Select all

love_version = "0.5.0"
.

Help would be nice :)

The files (main.lua, game.conf, etc) must be in the root of the .zip-file. RAR is not supported.

I did use .zip as well nothing and those files are in the root.

Edit: It might be the application that im using to zip my files, i'm installing a new winzip trial to see if that works.

Edit 2: Still nothing, i also tried re zipping someone else's project to test it, it didn't work so it's something to do with my compression maybe ?

aight i will :)

And i don't really get the whole licensing thing, so the things i used in this are made by zeddy (The console), the song is from http://binaerpilot.no/, the images are made by my friend, (at school), and Xfcn and cag(you ^^) helped to make that code for the jump :).

And if someone could help me as well with how to license (free), so that i'm not doing anything illegal lol.

The zip :) No music as it was too large of a file. :)

Easy fix. You don't put the whole folder in the zip: you put the contents of the folder in the zip.

So i just add the contents to a zip rather then archiving the file ?

Testing now :)
