So I should set

gameState = 'intro'

and then call the function like

gameStates[gameState]['draw']()

I apologize if I'm misunderstanding, and thanks for the help!

You call it either way

gameState = 'intro'

gameStates[gameState]['draw']()
gameStates[gameState].draw()

Okay, that works! Thanks! I have another question, I'm trying to make the 3D depth change over time, but it only seems to change every integer. I mean, if I have

--in love.update(dt)
depth = depth + (.5 * dt)

It only changes, visibly once it rounds up/down to the nearest int. The change is abrupt and noticeable. I assume it's only meant to take in integers, is it possible to allow more precision?

EDIT:
I also get an error trying to add a second sound,

Could not allocate to sound buffer

So I tried to build from the github project and get

1: fatal error: ogg/ogg.h: No such file or directory
#include <ogg/ogg.h>

on Windows 10. Oh well haha.

is there a .elf available for LovePotion?
Want to try creating a CIA.
If yes, would you share it with me?
Can't compile it on my Win8 System

Try with this: https://github.com/VideahGams/LovePotion/wiki/Building-LÖVEPotion

okay, installed all librarys (except freetype). But I get errrors when I'm trying to compile freetype for example.
Installed MinGW and all the librarys, created the System variables and such but still. It won't work on my Win8 System >_>
For freetype compile, I'll get this error: "cannot find native c compiler" (other librarys weren't a problem).
Could someone upload a .elf-file of LÖVEPotion which loads from romfs (want to build a CIA file out of it)?

You probably messed up the PATH for MinGW

weird. I've ";C:\MinGW\bin\" in PATH (behind the other entries).

It works for me as "C:\MinGW\bin", not "C:\MinGW\bin\", try with that

okay, that seems to work... BUT... yea, getting this error... dunno why...

@Substance12 I get warnings during the final two make commands,

I mean it still compiles, but the game bugs the fuck out. Hahaa...
EDIT: The included demo works fine, but my game skips parts and crashes due to enough linear memory
EDIT 2:
Um. Apparently it doesn't handle keyheld right. It is constantly registering A and B, which is why it skipped the intro part. As for the menu, I commented the controls part of the update, and then it spam plays the bgm (during the update function it checks if the bgm is playing, and if not, it plays.) It appears to not be performing boolean checks right... So I comment the music out, and it runs, but no control or music. Will keep messing with it.
EDIT 3: It must be my build, it's not working lol. isPlaying() never gives the right answer, love.keyboard.isDown('a') always returns true. gg
EDIT 4 GG: Nah, apparently I'm doing something wrong, since does the same thing with your Picroxx build. Wtf :v

Can you link your build and code? I haven't been experiencing anything like this.

Yeah, I'm at work right now, but I might've made a zip on one drive, let me check real quick.
Edit: https://goo.gl/zPsaks
That's the old build that still works, you could try throwing the game folder into a newer build. I'll upload my new one after I get out of work in 8 1/2 hours lol. Thanks!

would you upload the latest build as CIA for me (with loading files from romfs, if possible)?
I tried to setup the Dev Environment on my Win8 System but I always fail installing this stuff.

 

[XavyrrVaati]

@VideahGams https://goo.gl/myaQkb there is the LovePotion build.
https://goo.gl/lMaE9C there are the game files.

I'm trying to follow the "Building LÖVEPotion" guide and i'm stuck on installing the freetype portlib. it gives me the error "configure: error: cannot find a native c compiler". I can run make on all the portlibs except this one.
LÖVEPotion built anyways.

It sounds like you didn't install MinGW or add it to your PATH environment variable. (But don't quote me, I can't seem to do it right either :v)

I can provide a CIA if you want I guess, but the romfs would be empty.

I'll have a look at it in a bit.

would be cool!
Will the CIA be able to load files from romfs (could put my files into the cia by myself then)?

Yup, I don't recommend using this for development though, it's mostly for releasing games as CIA's
It's an unstable version, fresh off the presses from the git repo so things might not work, if you find something broken make sure to tell me.
You can grab it from here, the romfs is empty.
