If no vertex map is set, this restricts the drawn vertices to those whose indices in the vertex array are between [min, max] inclusive.
If a vertex map is set, this restricts the values used in the vertex map to those whose indices in the vertex map array are between [min, max] inclusive.
Added Mesh constructor variant: love.graphics.newMesh(vertexcount, texture, drawmode). Creates a Mesh with a certain number of vertices with x,y,u,v,r,g,b,a values of (0,0,0,0,255,255,255,255).
love.graphics.draw(mesh) will draw the mesh instancecount times, using hardware instancing when available. The only way to draw individual instances differently from each other is to use the love_InstanceID variable in a vertex shader.
Added love.graphics.isSupported(“instancing”). Hardware instancing is supported if true, otherwise a (slower) pseudo-instancing fallback is used internally when drawing instanced meshes.
Added a ‘highdpi’ boolean flag to t.window/love.window.setMode (defaults to false.)
When the window is actually in high-dpi mode on a supported display, the graphics width and height and the mouse position are in pixels, rather than ‘window coordinates’.
Added love.window.getPixelScale. Returns the scale factor of the window from user-space points to pixels (e.g. it will be 1 normally, and 2 on a retina display in OS X with high-dpi mode enabled.)
Canvases and Images are now subclasses of the new Texture class.
Added setTexture and getTexture methods for Meshes, ParticleSystems, and SpriteBatches (the old set/getImage methods are deprecated but not removed.)
Canvas texture coordinates are no longer flipped.
This should *only* be used for debugging: the wireframe lines behave differently from regular love.graphics lines, and the functionality may not work on OpenGL ES.
You can now:
- Enable and disable love's modules, implementations and libraries using configure switches
- Use pkg-config for a couple of love's requirements
- Build on OSX
- Use newer versions of FreeType2
- Get a slightly better error message using automagic
The legacy code in SDL2 for windowing in 10.5 is buggy, resulting in major bugs with love.window.setFullscreen and other functions. Also, some of 10.5’s own drivers are buggy. Stop using an OS that’s 4 major versions out of date - most other applications have dropped 10.5 support months or years ago.
