Drawing primitives like circles and rectangles

[Xcmd]

Just to help with trouble-shooting, I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 32-bit with Love 0.5.0 and whatever version of Lua comes with it. Worked fine for me.

Code: Select all

function draw()
	love.graphics.rectangle(love.draw_line, 100, 100, 200, 200)
end

That's all I had in my game file. I made a new one expressly for the purposes of testing it.

That's really odd.

Try running a LÖVE application that does not contain anything except

Code: Select all

function draw(); love.graphics.rectangle(love.draw_line, 100, 100, 200, 200); end

yeah, the same thing happens. no rectangle unless I set the line width.

That is quite odd, I got a white rectangle. I'm running the same things as iamwillhelm. Did you try changing the background color to see if it's making a black rectangle for you?

I've tried explicitly setting both the color of the pen, as well as the background color, or both, to see if it's either one. It's not. It's the line width.

Code: Select all

function load()
   love.graphics.setBackgroundColor(255, 0, 0)
   love.graphics.setColor(128,128,0)
end

function draw() 
   love.graphics.rectangle(love.draw_line, 100, 100, 200, 200)
end

Where is the love code contained? Is there source that I can dig into? Maybe I can run the debugger or at least print out some status messages to a logger on my own machine.

I tried it out again to reproduce it. It only happens with rectangles.

Code: Select all

love.graphics.rectangle(love.draw_line, 100, 100, 200, 200)

without setting the width, it doesn't show up. I'll put it as a bug in the issue tracker

On Win XP I had the same problem, but I gave up on the idea of rectangles altogether and used an image.

Query: are any of you having this problem running a 32-bit operating system or a 64-bit? And, yes, there IS a 64-bit XP.

I'm running a 32-bit OS.

yep i have it on my other drive, works splendidly

[Xcmd]

Welp I'm out of ideas. Unless somehow you guys have Lua installed already and your version is over-writing Love's version. Or vice-versa. But I'd thought Love called a self-contained Lua implementation...

[bartbes]

It does, I myself have lua installed seperately as well.
As to the problems: you don't happen to have some crappy video card or video driver?

I installed Lua separately. Hrm, I might have a crappy video card. I'm running a panasonic toughbook, and it's the intel 82x graphics chip. Once I get my other ubuntu machine up, I'll try it on there.
