As far as I know, love.filesystem paths are in the format of path/to/file only, so path.to.file doesn't work.
You may also want to be mindful of the exact casing on folder and file names; for example running code on Windows works fine if you mix the cases, but will fail when running from a .love or fused executable.

Yeah, dots are used for module names in require(). Normal love.filesystem functions use slashes "/".
