Best way to scale image for retina, not-retina

[lonelyguy]

Hi!

I used to work with SpriteKit on iOS and my game used that 2x size graphics for retina displays.

I'm using the same graphics for my löve game right now and when I set

Code: Select all

t.window.highdpi = true

everything looks good on the iPhone. But when I run the game on my mac (no retina display), everything is in double size of course.

How should I deal with that when I want my game to be able to run on mac/pc and various mobile devices.

Thanks!

There are a few functions to help you: [wiki]love.window.fromPixels[/wiki], [wiki]love.window.toPixels[/wiki], and [wiki]love.window.getPixelScale[/wiki].

Currently all graphics, mouse, and touch input units are in pixels rather than pixel density-scaled points, which makes dealing with it a bit of a pain. I plan to make it all a bit easier to handle for LOVE 0.11 (which isn't out yet).

Thanks for your reply. I'm really looking forward to 0.11, I think love2d is on a great way!
