then, Row[2][1] becomes 15 too. That's really annoying. Anyone knows a way to avoid this? You can copy the table: function copyTable(old) local new = {} table.foreach(old, function (item) table.insert(new, item) end) ...

Try to update the Lua library.

Take a look at the serial port example in Lua Player for a full terminal simulation with newline and scrolling.

You won't find the silver bullet, which solves all problems. Of course, you can do anything in C++ or C and there are GCs for C, too, like the Boehm GC. And you are right, you can't implement a fast image rotate function in Lua, because it is too slow for single pixel manipulating low-level tasks li...

I don't consider garbage collection a plus in particular Do you have a reaons, why you don't consider it as a plus? E.g. Java is very successful and one reason may be that it has a GC and the programmer doesn't have to take care when to release memory. A GC can be even faster than manual memory man...

When you are calling "yourSound=Sound.load(...)" and then "yourSound.play()", you'll get a Voice object, on which you have to call playing: sound = Sound.load("test"); voice = sound:play(); while voice:playing(&...

Maybe setup a Sourceforge project, then you can provide it as a "file release" for download, which is mirrored all over the world on fast central ISP servers.

Now that we have a recent (5.1) and functional lua interpreter running on the PS2 (still have few minor issues but they will be corrected in the next few days), it would be great to see coming a PS2 Lua player ! This is a good idea. Having reviewed a bit the PSP player, I noticed that there is no a...

nvm, it was "for index,value in table do". it took a while to change them to ipairs and pairs, i really needed the jpeg support! so why did you want to make it lua 5.1, wasnt that a hassle? So how long do you need to replace "in table" with "in ipairs(table)", when sea...

Do you have some non-working example? I've removed your screen.flip and this works with Lua Player 0.20: screen:clear(Color.new(0, 0, 0)) screen:print(0, 264, "I have text here", Color.new(255,255,255)) img = I...

the 0.19 lowser wont work and "for i=1,string.len(somethin) do" doesnt work and its annoying You are right, 0.19 lowser doesn't work, but I've fixed it. Lowser in Lua Player 0.20 works. The only changes needed were the pairs/ipairs changes, like described in the release notes. And I can't...

I didn't tried it, but looks like you are copying the wrong screen. There are 2 screens: the visible screen and the backbuffer. Copying from screen to image uses the backbuffer. Let me know, if you have still the error when copying the backbuffer, then I'll check it on my PSP.

But then the real problem came up. For some reason a regular Image = Image.load("filename.png") displays (random?) Image.load: Error loading image errors. Do I need to load all my graphics with the new Image.loadFromMemory function or is the soft having trouble with the resolution of my ....

See the release note: "it's pure Lua 5.1: no binary operators". Use "+" instead of "|", like in my cube example shipped with the 0.20 release of Lua Player.

Really???

Yes, see http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=5885 . Maybe this will be useful later when integrating physfs, too, which will allow packing all files of a game in one zip file.

I mean than luaplayer 0.20 doesn't work with eloader 0.97 Then it would be a good idea to ask the author to enhance eloader 0.97. Maybe the module loading is not supported. A solution might be this thread: http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=5663 But I want to concentrate more on Lua Player co...

Doesn't work.... :( Maybe you can write a bit more about what doesn't work. Lua Player 0.20 works? Then this works, too: function ip2string(ip) local string = nil for i = 1, 4 do if string then string = string .. "." else string = "" end string = string .. ip&...

I don't know, because currently I have only a 1.0 and 1.5 PSP, but you can try it, Lua Player 0.20 is released: http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=5885

Yes, see the release notes of Lua Player 0.20.

i tested it on lua5.1 and works. But in luaplayer doesn't work... I don't know what to do

In Lua Player 0.20 I've integrated Lua 5.1 with double as number type, to avoid such problems. Now it should work.

I can't see any mention of the requests I've made, anyone managed to move/rename files?

I've added a System.rename function for Lua Player 0.20.

On http://www.luaplayer.org you can get the new version 0.20. It is updated to Lua 5.1, there are some bugfixes and a new function for loading images from memory. I'll try to add pspgl the next week. The changelog: v0.20 ========== updated for gcc 4.1 and Lua 5.1. Some things you need to change for ...

Hi, I have this problems: 1 - if I create an new image, and whant to put some text in it as: _font = Font.load('somefont.ttf') _font:setPixelSizes(0,30) fileImage = Image.createEmpty(480,272) fileImage:fontPrint(_font , 0, 0, 'Hello', Color.new(0,0,2555)) the text not render, it seems to need a: fi...

from reading some of the documentation it suggested that the waitVblankStart() should come before the flip (I see a lot of programs that use it this way). But from what you guys are saying it should always come after the flip, it that correct ? As romero126 said: You don't need it for your example....

I've tested this code: screen:print(10,10,"test",Color.new(255,255,255)) screen.flip() screen.waitVblankStart() pad = Controls.read() while not pad:start() do pad = Controls.read...

Please ignore me, if you have painted the pictures yourself, but do you have the permission from the painters who draw it, to use it in your game?

Lua can handle bigger images than 512x512. I myself use 1000x1000 images. There is one catch it has to be in JPG format. Also it shouldn't be to big a filesize (ok so two catches). The biggest i use is 58 kB. I haven't tested the limits, but maybe Shine can tell us? Maybe this is possible, but then...

Let me know if the link goes down. It's being hosted at megaupload. If anyone wants to mirror, go ahead. This is really cool! I don't update my gallery, but this is an exception, I've mirrored it on my server and added it to the top of the unmaintained Lua Player gallery . BTW: works without proble...

Ok, as I wrote, you should post to this thread, if you are working on a task to avoid duplicate work.

Currently I'm working on the pspgl integration. It is a bit more work than I thought, but I hope to release a new version this weekend.
