local text="If this shows, it did not work."
function love.load()
love.filesystem:setIdentity("TEST") --Right here! It says "main.lua:4: Calling 'setIdentity' on bad self. (string expected, got table)" "TEST" is a table I guess?
local h=love.filesystem:newFile("text.txt")
h:open("w")
h:write("If this shows, it worked")
h:close()
h:open("r")
text=h:read()
end
function love.draw()
love.graphics:print(text, 20, 20)
end
This is all the code. Again, here is the error. main.lua:4: Calling 'setIdentity' on bad self. (string expected, got table)

You're calling it wrong. It should be love.filesystem.setIdentity(name). Note how it uses only periods, not colons. Colons, in Lua, mean something completely different. Likewise, don't use a colon for love.graphics.print().
Earliest Love2D supporter who can't Love anymore. Let me disable pixel shaders if I don't use them, dammit! Lenovo Thinkpad X60 Tablet, built like a tank. But not fancy enough for Love2D 0.10.0+.
Just to help LuaWeaver better understand the difference.
This code calls the setIdentity function which lives in the filesystem table which in turn lives in the love table which is a global variable (meaning it lives in the globals table):
This code calls the setIdentity function the same way as described before, but adds the value in the left of the colon as an automatic first parameter to the call:
. I am using it ROBLOX STYLE. Still, never go there. They locked up like %25 percent of Lua!
