I just felt it made more sense to put functions like that into the only object it's going to be used on anyway. Thanks for that code though, I never think of doing that!

Is there any way to add functions to love objects from within love2d without having to compile your own love2d?

E.g

Code: Select all

function love.Image:getSize()
	return self:getWidth(), self:getHeight()
end

hamster = love.graphics.newImage('hamster.png')

print(hamster:getSize()) -- Prints 128, 128

Yippy!!! Thanks, it's running super smooth now.

PROBLEM SOLVED, THANKS T-Bone All love2d games make my whole system lag to the point where everything is unplayable. Total CPU usage jumps from 5-10% to 50-60% when love2d starts, even just with the piggy. I can run what should be much more cpu intensive games just fine. System info , kind of outda...

You can just draw things directly to the screen in love.draw, e.g:

Code: Select all

function love.draw()
	love.graphics.print("Hello World", 400, 300)
end

Use love.timer.getTime() to return the seconds since startup and math.floor() to round it down to a whole number, so change line six to: time_passed = math.floor(love.timer.getTime()) Or alternatively in this case just change line ten to the following and forget about time_passed. love.graphics.prin...

I don't really know how blending and particles and other what-not works so I've tried messing with setColor, setBlendMode, setColorMode and the color of the particle sprite image used, nothing works. :( Right now I've just got the following, works on a black background, not on a white. function love...

The closer the background is to white the less visible the particles are, can someone explain what's going on and how to go around it?

Note: Enclose an argument containing spaces using double-quotes ("). Well I'm incredibly silly for missing that, but using double quotes didn't work, neither did using ${project_loc} or creating a new project without the space in it's name (and changing the run config accordingly). But thanks ...

I'm trying to set up love with the standalone version of LDT, I've got the love lua documentation working I just can't set up the run configuration to launch love2d with my game (right now I just get a rubber piggy popping up). (I'm on ubuntu 12.04 btw) Screenshot of what my eclipse looks like KTuxQ...
