0.10.0 Update - Githubissues

rm-code commented 9 years ago

The update to 0.10.0 is now happening on the develop branch. It's hard to differentiate between changes which are made because of 0.10.0 or just concern 0.9.2. So I will treat all changes as changes towards 0.10.0.

Feel free to contribute based on the changelog.

Latest revision as of 03:15, 17 December 2015

Additions

[x] Added an iOS port.
[x] Added an Android port.
[x] Added support for reading accelerometer values on mobile devices. Accelerometers are exposed as 3-axis Joysticks.
[x] Added the flag t.accelerometerjoystick to love.conf. Disables accelerometer-as-joystick functionality on mobile devices when false.
[x] Added the flag t.gammacorrect to love.conf (replaces t.window.srgb.) Enabling it globally enables gamma-correct rendering, when supported.
[x] Added video playback support for Ogg Theora videos, via love.graphics.newVideo.
[x] Added love.video module. It is not used for displaying videos on-screen (see Video objects for that).
[x] Added love.touch module. Note that it has important differences from the touch implementation in the LÖVE 0.9.2 Android and iOS ports.
[x] Added love.touch.getTouches
[x] Added love.touch.getPosition
[x] Added love.touch.getPressure
[x] Added love.touchpressed, love.touchreleased, and love.touchmoved.
[x] Added love.system.vibrate.
[x] Added love.filesystem.setRequirePath and love.filesystem.getRequirePath.
[x] Added an optional program exit status number argument to love.event.quit.
[x] Added love.filedropped and love.directorydropped event callback functions.
[x] Added love.lowmemory event callback function, called when the app is running out of memory on mobile operating systems.
[x] Added love.textedited event callback function, called when the user is compositing text (e.g. via an IME.)
[x] Added love.wheelmoved event callback function (replaces "wu" and "wd" constants for love.mousepressed.)
[x] Added love.mouse.hasCursor.
[x] Added a boolean argument to love.mousepressed and love.mousereleased indicating whether the button event originated from a touch press.
[x] Added love.keyboard.isScancodeDown.
[x] Added optional x/y/width/height arguments to love.keyboard.setTextInput. They tell the system where text will show up so on-screen keyboards can avoid that area.
[x] Added Source:getType (replaces Source:isStatic.)
[x] Added Source:getDuration and Decoder:getDuration.
[x] Added an optional string argument containing raw pixel data to the width/height variant of [[love.image.newImageData]].
[x] Added love.graphics.ellipse.
[x] Added rounded-rectangle support to love.graphics.rectangle.
[x] Added love.graphics.points (replaces love.graphics.point).
[x] Added love.graphics.intersectScissor.
[x] Added an optional argument to love.graphics.setBlendMode which indicates whether to treat the colors of drawn objects as having pre-multiplied alpha.
[x] Added a new built-in shader variable: "mat3 NormalMatrix".
[x] Added love.graphics.getSupported (replaces love.graphics.isSupported.)
[x] Added love.graphics.getSystemLimits (replaces love.graphics.getSystemLimit.)
[x] Added love.graphics.stencil, love.graphics.setStencilTest and love.graphics.getStencilTest (replaces love.graphics.setStencil.)

[x] Added the ability to specify custom mipmaps when creating an image, via [[love.graphics.newImage]](filename, {mipmaps={mip1, mip2, ...}}).
[x] Added optional x/y/width/height arguments to Image:refresh and Canvas:newImageData.
[x] Added Image:getFlags.
[x] Added one- and two-channel Canvas formats: r8, rg8, r16f, rg16f, r32f, and rg32f.
[x] Added support for different formats in each Canvas when using multi-canvas rendering. Added the "multicanvasformats" GraphicsFeature constant.
[x] Added support for OpenGL ES 2 and 3.
[x] Added support for loading ETC, EAC, PVRTC and ASTC compressed textures on systems that support them.
[x] Added custom vertex attribute support for Meshes via new variants of love.graphics.newMesh.
[x] Added Mesh:setVertexAttribute and Mesh:getVertexAttribute.

Wow this is really nice! Could we also have a 0.8.0 branch? That would be useful too

I'll try to help but I kinda have some things to do right now but I surely will

rm-code commented 9 years ago

Could we also have a 0.8.0 branch?

Sure, but what would be the benefit of that branch? 0.8.0 is heavily outdated.

pablomayobre commented 9 years ago

Well, little probably hahaha. 0.8.0 was an important release with many games released to it, and this is a documentation project, so having the information for older releases is not a bad idea (though going back even more than 0.8.0 is kinda hard and pointless)

rm-code commented 9 years ago

I see what you mean, but maintaining several versions would mean a lot of work. The wiki is a better place to document the whole history of LÖVE.

This API / documentation is meant to always be up to date, so it can be used to generate plugins, offline documentation and other lovely things.

Therefore the 0.10.0 branch will be merged as soon as 0.10.0 is officially released.

pablomayobre commented 9 years ago

I see, well then I'll fork it and try to keep it stable (since no updates will be made to older versions, should be simple), but I understand the need of an up to date repository instead of keeping old versions so keep it like that!

Thanks!

rm-code commented 9 years ago

When you have the 0.8.0 doc ready, feel free to submit a pull request. I don't see any harm to having it in the repository - I just don't want to maintain it myself :smile:

pablomayobre commented 9 years ago

Ohh! Okay then hahaha

PS: Keep a branch for 0.9.X even when 0.10.0 gets stable

PS: Keep a branch for 0.9.X even when 0.10.0 gets stable

I don't think a separate branch is needed since it can always be created from the last 0.9.2 version tag, right? I'm asking, because I'm thinking about merging the 0.10.0 branch into develop.

pablomayobre commented 9 years ago

Well you can't commit to a tag for example if there is a change in the format, or you cant fix errors or mystypes if there is still something

rm-code commented 9 years ago

Yes that's true, but you can start a branch by specifying the commit of that tag for example.

pablomayobre commented 9 years ago

And that is true too, but you are starting a branch later on, which should be the same than doing it right now... :confused:

You get to chose, I'm not sure which way is better to tell the truth haha
