[Release] - LövePotion - LÖVE API for 3DS Homebrew - BETA

thank you a lot! I'll try this out

 

okay, tried it now.
Copied the files from inside of "LovePotion-1.0.8-beta\game" into the romfs.
Got the error "Could not initialize audio".
Tried the Undertale Lua Demo and got an error with "newFont". Not sure what it was.

 

Thank you!
I'll try it! Used the old one LOVE, I guess.

EDIT: is audio still supported? what has been changed?

 

oh, okay.
Shouldn't be a problem to create valid PCM wav's Thank you!

 

I thought .ogg support was added in the master build? Unless you mean that only valid PCM .wavs work and not other .wav files. Also, is my LOVE project working for you? I'll try that build you just posted when I get home.

 

But when I remove all audio it doesn't work either.

 

I can in like 2-3 hours, I'm still working lol.

 

Alright, I compiled the latest off of github, and it gives me the Supertoast-nogame screen (using .3dsx). So I went back to build that Picroxx uses, that one gives me linear memory errors with music/sound. I commented every reference to any audio, and it it crashes (Also pressing buttons? All booleans are evaluated wrong or something, since it skips the intro which requires A pressed). I'm also including the original version, which works, every version has identical game files minus the muted once which every audio related line is commented. I'm running an O3DS via Menuhax.

I should point out, that when I disable music AND all code related to input, the it plays 'properly'. When I add a debug line to print if A is pressed, it flickers rapidly (meaning it cycles true/false). Therefore when the input code is enabled, it skips the intro because of A press, then potentially escapes back to the intro because B press does that. Or it jumps to the first menu screen because of A and then backs out immediately, resulting in the flickering that occurs with the menu screen... This is with a recent, but not most recent build that Picroxx uses. Building the most recent as of last night resulted in the game files being ignored and displaying the no game screen with supertoast. As for the linear memory thing, it might not be the problem, at least for me, since the exact same code runs fine on the last release of LovePotion, and all of my audio isn't loaded at once, it's loaded on the screen change. It throws allocation errors when I try to load too many/too big audio files.

Example, use the working LOVE build with old LovePotion, select core from the main menu and press A and it will throw an allocation error because the core bgm wav takes up too much space with the intro sound and the menu music already loaded. The latest build apparently has a source remove command, which I assumed would solve my problem, since I could 'unload' an audio source and then re load when necessary, but it has issues with other stuff.

 

Umm, it may seem like a noobish question, but I really don't know how to do this. You've said that you will continue the development of Undertale port for 3DS called LOVE. So I have downloaded it, i have created a folder in my 3ds folder and called it LovePotion, and then I have copied the files to the /3ds/LovePotion folder. When I launch lovepotion on my Homebrew Launcher it just displays supertoast. How can I play LOVE?

 

Not really relevant to the thread, so feel free to just PM me/comment on my profile until I decide to make a thread for LOVE. Anyways, have stated a several times that LOVE isn't an Undertale port. It's going to be an interactive visual homebrew. As of current, you can't 'play' LOVE. It's not really a game. If you want to see what it does, you can go to my profile where I have posted a couple working builds. There isn't too much to look at yet. I'm currently trying to find out what's up with my latest build of LP, so I can include more music.

 

Is this still being updated? Started learning Lua/Love for PC today, and once I know the basics I wanna start on 3DS, so this would be very useful.

 

Great to hear! Don't stress it dude, this is already amazing, so good luck with your IRL stuff.

 

Hi I'm very interested in this project. I've compiled LovePotion and it works flawless in *hax 2.7. Now i want to do some serious work... It needs more documentation Keep up the good work.

 

You can check out my project, though my coding style might be hard to read. See my signature.
