How to draw color emojis with love.graphics.print()

[dusoft]

Like, okay, i can get why you frustrated
But does that make you that angry so you even start call others assholes and so on?

Slime is a good dude and I commend his efforts to create good things. I have the utmost respect for the project he stands for. You, on the other hand, are not even qualified to pass judgment.

ok

Haha, guys! He is grump(y) after all.

Anyway, didn't your account get hacked? It seemed to me to be so with questions marks in the many old posts in different threads. But I guess not.

Nah, it's just a few of them while I had my tantrum over unfair treatment. I'm not happy about it - super embarrassed tbh.

No one:
*Post that doesn't make sense*
grump: "You f*cking a**hole f*ck your opinions and f*ck your f*cking brain"

JUST KIDDING.
Okay, Okay, sorry. I was just making a joke about the Batman trailer at the same time. (The trailer has question marks everywhere(kind of) just like your posts ... sigh... my sad attempts at references) You know I can be ... ah, what's that word ... cryptic

The first time I saw it I thought you did that because you wanted to edit the posts later and didn't want anyone to see it until you did, so I was just like 'kay. Then no one was saying anything about it so I said. I wasn't firing shots

Man, it was kind of like playing a detective novel thing at some points. Question marks and then pgimeno quoting you on what you said and I would have to fill in blanks parts (your post in games thread). Some of those edits can really annoy future people browsing the topic looking for help on a subject just to see the OP post or something is "?????...???..?..????" .

Sorry for all the bad energy you're getting (from slime man? from ... me?). You're not a bad person, in fact you're a good helpful person. Just try to ... errr ... un-grumpen up (online where the strangers are watching atleast) Still nothing about the speed of loading ttf files?

I know you're joking, but I would never, ever, say something like what you're implying there. I'm not the friendliest person around for sure, but this is not how I would act.

Let's put this to rest now and get the thread back on topic.

(Edit: slurs? The message looks unedited to me. I added the stars and everything I didn't slur! Edit-Edit: oh, just one word from joke )

Oh, and a little unrelated, but does font loading take a while? It's just that libgdx uses bitmaps but has the option to load fonts from a ttf file at runtime with the warning that the program would take considerably longer to start up. Is this just a Freetype font loader thing on their side or...?

Slime has a secret list of words that you can't say. The list is secret because saying those words is forbidden, and the words are forbidden because they're on his list. Stop asking. You're supposed to know them by heart, no matter where you're from. It's made in Canada and therefore to be respected, of course, in the whole world.

No, it's okay. He sent me a polite message telling me the word and said he just edited it cause he knew I didn't mean it in an offensive way.

Fonts with colour emojis probably use features that Löve doesn't support. Try a using a font with B/W emoji support, like https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-emo ... egular.ttf

I made a simple proof of concept with the font I linked, and it worked out of the box, which is why I linked it:

Code: Select all

local fnt = love.graphics.newFont('NotoEmoji-Regular.ttf')
love.graphics.setFont(fnt)

function love.draw()
  love.graphics.print('\xF0\x9F\x98\x80')
end

There may be a problem that my simple POC did not show. I thought the characters were not showing up for dusoft, but maybe I was wrong and the problem is not exactly that.

The noto-emoji font was removed a few days ago from the github repo, and it looks like they only have colored emoji fonts now. The original black and white noto-emoji font can still be accessed here, however: https://www.1001fonts.com/noto-emoji-font.html

Nah, things are not really deleted in git repositories unless they do a filter-branch or delete the whole repository.
