Porting 1.6 to LOVE 9.0

[Superjustinbros]

For specific reasons I have been unable to play 1.6 of Mari0 since I had to download LOVE 9.0 to run SE, and even after downloading 8.0 just to run 1.6 it always gives me the "Love Piggy" screen instead of the actual game.

I was wondering if 1.6 could be ported to LOVE 9.0 so I could play it again without any compatibility issues.

Yay.
Though, now it mean that mari0 won't work on linux. I'll try to convert it to 0.9.0, if I'm not too lazy .
Edit: Got everything working except music now.

Here's how I did it:

Code: Select all

love.filesystem.getDirectoryItems <== love.filesystem.enumerate
love.filesystem.createDirectory <== love.filesystem.mkdir

love.window.setMode(w,h,{fullscreen=full,vsync=vsync,fsaa=fsaa}) <== love.graphics.setMode(w,h,full,vsync,fsaa)
love.window.getWidth <== love.graphics.getWidth
love.window.getHeight <== love.graphics.getHeight
love.window.setTitle=love.graphics.setCaption
love.window.getTitle=love.graphics.getCaption

love.graphics.setDefaultFilter <== love.graphics.setDefaultImageFilter
love.graphics.getDefaultFilter <== love.graphics.getDefaultImageFilter
love.window.setIcon(imgdata) <== love.graphics.setIcon(img)
imgdata = love.window.getIcon <== img = love.graphics.getIcon
love.graphics.draw <== love.graphics.drawq
Spritebatch:add <== Spritebatch:addq

love.graphics.isSupported("shader") <== love.graphics.isSupported("pixeleffect")
love.graphics.newShader <== love.graphics.newPixelEffect
love.graphics.setShader <== love.graphics.setPixelEffect
love.graphics.getShader <== love.graphics.getPixelEffect

love.thread.newThread(filename) <== love.thread.newThread(name, filename)
love.mouse.setGrabbed <== love.mouse.setGrab

love.thread.getChannel(name):push(var) <== Thread:set(name, var)
if love.thread.getChannel(name):getCount()>0 then <== if Thread:get(name) then
var = love.thread.getChannel(name):pop() <== var = Thread:get(name)
var = love.thread.getChannel(name):demand() <== var = Thread:demand(name)
[WARNING: A CHANNEL IS A STACK, NOT A VARIABLE, WHEN YOU POP SOMETHING OUT OF IT, IT DISAPPEAR FROM THE CHANNEL]

Thank you.

Weird...
I've recently updated from 0.8.0 to 0.9.1 and both 1.6 and SE work fine for me (SE having some bugs and crashes, of course).

[Smear-Gel]

Both 1.6 on Love 8 and SE 1.1 on Love 9 work for me. But that might be because I got the zip rather than the installation.

I don't think so, since I downloaded the installer.

I used the installer and installed it in love9 instead of love so they're both installed at the same time. Try deleting your love folder in program files before reinstalling into it, and then install them in separate folders, since 8 on top of 9 probably is not overwriting properly.

Unsure if this may be sounding like too much, but is anyone able to take my SJB mod and port it to LOVE 9.0?
