Re: Fileformats? How to structure? standards?

The second approach is to save data in lua-language. As you know the constructor for tables in lua is very well human readable. So you can just create a file that when executed, produces all data inside your game. Have a look here, for more details: PiL. Except it's very dangerous, because insecure...

Re: The Legendary Empires MMORPG project

Thank you for explaining. By the way I wasn't planning to get rich this way, just do it for fun. But it won't be fun. Buying servers($$$), optimizing, coding the server software, all of that isn't fun. Also...I need to know how multilayer with love2d works. How would you set up a server? Do you nee...

Re: The Legendary Empires MMORPG project

Indie game don't mean made by one guy. World of goo is indie. Super meat boy is indie. VVVVVV is indie. And they're all made by two guys. If you did a MMO alone? Yes, no one (Absolutely NO-ONE) did a MMO alone, it's impossible. Even at 10. If you want to make this game, then try first to make some s...

Re: Is there a way to get the current monitor resolution?

You can use:

Code: Select all

love.graphics.setMode(0, 0, true, v, f)
Then, it will default to the current resolution.
Also, if it do a black screen for you, use:

Code: Select all

love.graphics.setMode(0, 0, true, v, f)
love.graphics.setMode(love.graphics.getWidth(),love.graphics.getHeight(), true, v, f)

Re: Any way to build a non-disassemblable executable?

And this is the reason why there isn't a single commercial game released with love2d to date and never will be. It's a good tool for prototyping, learning lua and a general process of making a game though so take it for what it is. I would never waste my time and the time of a coder making a produc...
