Hello... I'm trying to draw a simple image, I read the filesystem page on the wiki and trying to open an image and draw it but apparently, I can't...

Here's my code to open and draw the image:

Code: Select all

function love.load()
	picture = love.graphics.newImage("bg.jpg")
end

function love.update( dt )
end

function love.draw()
	love.graphics.draw(picture, 200, 200)
end

In my root folder(where the .love is located) there is:

main.lua
conf.lua
bg.jpg
main.zip
run.bat

PS: the "run.bat" file is only renaming the "main.zip" file into "main.love" and then I run it

Thanks for your time!

Could you upload the .love?

1.) What happens?
2.) Upload your .love
3.) How did you try to run it?

the first two should always be covered when asking for help, we absolutely cannot help if you don't tell us what exactly is happening.

When I rename the .zip into .love and run it, I get: ' main.lua:2: Could not open file bg.png. Cannot read file '

PS: I tried it at school, and it works, and uploaded it on mega and opened it at home, worked too... But I still want to know why.

By the way I attached my .love file

You posted this:

Code: Select all

picture = love.graphics.newImage("bg.jpg")

Which does work...

But in your .love file you do this:

Code: Select all

picture = love.graphics.newImage(".\bg.jpg")

Which does not work...
