Please add the ability to load videos since Löve 0.10.0 supports them.

Im just gonna link to the forum thread because I have no idea what is going on

Is it possible to implement a fallback with no threads? I want to use it with punchdrunk and don't want to change my code.

Right now the library holds a lot of state in vars. I don't like that.

local loader = require 'love-loader'

local loader1 = loader.newLoader(finishedCallback, loadedCallback)

loader1:newImage(  images, 'rabbit', 'path/to/rabbit.png')
loader1:newSource( sounds, 'iiiik',  'path/to/iiik.ogg')
loader1:newSource( sounds, 'music',  'path/to/music.ogg', 'stream')

This fixes two things:

• State is moved outside of the library and into the user's env (where it should be INMHO)
• You can have several loaders (for example one loader per level)
• It's possible that we even don't need 'start' if we do it right.

We can probably use a single resource-loading thread for all the extra loaders (as opposed to one per loader); but we shall see.

Error: bad argument #1 to '?' (filename, File, or FileData expected)

Due to equal requestKey in both font and BMFont kinds, they got same channel. That leads to situation, when resource is post-processed by wrong kind in getResourceFromThreadIfAvailable()

I get different results when the finishedCallback is called..

Sometimes I get this in the console.

first tween finished
image   table: 0x02945188       left-hand-climber-hi
second tween finished

and sometimes this:

first tween finished
image   table: 0x02945188       left-hand-climber-hi
second tween finished
second tween finished

Force loading specific modules is not nice, I would expect that disabling the sound module from conf.lua would make love-loader only load images, instead the sound module is loaded anyway because of the requires at the beginning, deleting these of course makes love-loader crash.

For a future version (maybe whenever this becomes stateless) love-loader should check for each needed module before even start loading.

This will useful in a stateless version so that only the needed loaders are loaded in each thread, for example if I want to load sounds in a thread and images in other then I would only require love.sound in one and not in the other. Also helpful when I'm only using love-loader for images, for example.

Hi, using this lib for löve 11.1 gives this error

Thread Error
love-loader.lua:100 bad argument #2 to 'constructor' (string expected, got no value) 

To be honest, I don't know whether to request it here or there (https://github.com/vrld/slam).
I tried to simply require slam in love-loader.lua but then it fails to load any audio.

Error: lib/love-loader.lua:205: lib/love-loader.lua:103: bad argument #1 to 'push' (boolean, number, string, love type, or flat table expected)

I tried to debug this but don't know how to get details since the error seems to happen within the thread.

Currently font loading (bitmap or otherwise) is not supported by the library. It would be nice if we could load fonts in a separate thread, along with everything else.

Hey, want to update this to work with 0.10?

On my system (Windows 7 x86_64) the separator ends up being "" which does not seem to work. When I manually switch it to "/" it works fine.
