Re: Databases / Dealing with lots of data

Well 3.2k is not that many and you can simply load them all to a single table, using card name as key and table describing the card as value. As opposed to only loading the necessary data once it's needed and discarding it once it's no longer needed. This. Even if you have a massive amount of prope...

Re: [library] Artal, work directly with .PSD files.

Neat, I looked through it a little and it looks nice. :D And I'll make sure to push it with unix line ending in the future.

Re: [library] Artal, work directly with .PSD files.

ink and inkName methods save values on call when they could just return them. Yup, the reason it became like that was that I wanted to make sure I didn't override previously set variables. But that might have been better achieved by doing some meta-table magic. Why it is one huge procedural chunk w...

Re: [library] Artal, work directly with .PSD files.

Glad to see it being used, and thanks for the feedback. :) At this point I'm completely blind to what makes sense or not in the documentation as I've simply worked with PSD files to much. So if there's anything you're curious about PSD files in general / my implementation feel free to ask in here. T...

[library] Artal, work directly with .PSD files.

Loading .PSD files into LÖVE. Something that should be a simple problem solved in all game engines. Now I've fixed that though and as far as I'm aware, LÖVE is now the first open-source game engine that is capable of loading .PSD files directly. :awesome: The library only uses pure LuaJit, No extern...

Re: Shader tile

Fixed it I think. In the shader you used the "screen_coords" while you should use "texture_coords". ;) function shadwo_update() for x = begx, endx do --math.floor((player.x)/32)+player.focus for y = begy, endy do if (x > begx and y > begy) and (x < endx and y < endy) then if map[...

Re: Particles optimization

You might be able to get away with just using love.graphics.points(). So look if that suits your needs. Otherwise look into spritebatches. The process of spritebatches would go something like this. -- Draw the various sizes of love.graphics.circle() you want to a canvas. love.graphics.newCanvas() --...

Re: "Questions that don't deserve their own thread" thread

Ah now I see the mistake you made. When you're using shaders the color that is set with love.graphics.setColor() and the pixel color of an image is two different arguments passed into the shader. "vec4 color" being the love.graphics.setColor() color and "Image texture" being the ...

Re: "Questions that don't deserve their own thread" thread

Something like this might work: vec4 effect(vec4 color, Image texture, vec2 texture_coords, vec2 screen_coords) { vec4 pixel = Texel(texture, texture_coords); if (pixel.a > 0.0) { if (pixel.r > (254.5/255.0) || pixel.g > (254.5/255.0) || pixel.b > (254.5/255.0)) return vec4(85.0/255.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0...
