love.filesystem.getDirectoryItems Does work. I'm using it with the FFI code. if love.filesystem.isDirectory("ImageMasks/") then self.previews,success = love.filesystem.getDirectoryItems("ImageMasks/") end Your mistake probably is somewhere else and not in ffi. If you upload the ....

Hahahaha you actually used my suggestion for a name. Awesome.

So I must download FFI library and put it inside my .love? Or it's lua native then I can just write it inside my function Menu:saveTexture()?

Just call it anywhere. it just sets the base write and real folder from %APPDATA% to being the directory above your code folder.

Check the code here. Even though you aren't supposed to you can manually set the user folder via FFI. (thanks to slime for actually writing this) function changeDirectory() local ffi = require("ffi") ffi.cdef[[ int PHYSFS_mount(const char *newDir, const char *mountPoint, int appendToPath);...

Awesome! New version has much nicer mouse behaviour! I'm going to be using a version of this in Colour Constructor, so your code is going to be used by hundreds of artists. I must say man, that's some damn dense code without any comments. I may upload a commented version after i work out how everyth...

Thanks Evine. I think that is a good solution for singular files, but i ended up going with Slimes solution after a bit of IRC help. function changeDirectory() local ffi = require("ffi") ffi.cdef[[ int PHYSFS_mount(const char *newDir, const char *mountPoint, int appendToPath); ]]; ffi.cdef...

Yeah! I agree entierly, Love honestly is a great option for making little tools, and a little bit of work on the engine to make a few non game related things would really help in that direction. Like love2d is so much easier than something like wxlua, which is what zerobrane is made in, and it's gre...

Well the solution to my MAC problem was dumb.

Zipping the app on a PC breaks things!!!

EDIT:

Slime thanks so much for that code.

Worked perfectly!

Thanks Slime! I'll give that a shot and report back my results. But that sounds like a very promising option! The other problem that i need some help with is the mac build. The currently shipped mac build is really dodgy, as it is the love.app with instructions to drag in the .love file. (this wasn'...

Thank Nicolai and his Love Frames for that! Also the guy that put together the dark skin.
