Does love support flash player?

Post by ixjackinthebox »

Can I use things like buttons made in flash in Love2D?
If so do I need to use AS2 or AS3?

Thanks in advance.

I doubt it quite a lot. LÖVE is completely different from flash. But one never knows.

You cannot, LOVE does not support animated image filetypes. Look into AnAL on the LOVE wiki for your animation needs.

Already tried it myself and it definitely doesn't; however, it wouldn't be hard to add that as a new feature. Could be a while though.

There are clearly very low chances for flash assets to be supported, however it is technically possible to write an SVG importer, assuming existence of XML reader script(s), or by converting XML into Lua metatable's.

Not quite easily and not quite animately overall.

Contains things I work on. Also gets Love2d examples time to time.

I think, Spriter is more interesting.
