How to make Portable Version?

[darkfrei]

Hi all!

Is it possible to make a portable game, like C:/games/myGame/ with C:/games/myGame/saves/ so all saved data are in the folder near of fused .exe file?

In the case of a fused game, you can use love.filesystem.getSourceBaseDirectory. Get the path, mount it, and access a subfolder or zip file you've probably called "saves".

I believe the next major release of Love will let you mount the whole filesystem, so you could mount that path for non-fused games too, I think.

I've been doing this for years using nativefs library. You looking for a way that doesn't work around Love?
