This is great. But i couldn't find the updated functions list

[a_noob]

The main thing the luaplayer is lacking is how it is handling graphics and buttons checks etc. Basically it is using lua the wrong way.

For the luaplayer to be fast, which it could easily do, it needs to register functions into C stacks that are ran through rather than lua code being ran, because running/looping lua code causes massive overhead of reading and parsing data from text.

So basically the luaplayer needs to become more of a full engine before it will ever be fast enough. So I have some suggestions. First would be since luaplayer is mainly used for 2D gfx would be to support either JGE or OSLIB as the gfx library (and the other options they support (IMO JGE has more features and some better ones). Then you need to optimise it for that gfx lib (ie create a render stack where lua just inits the stack with all the gfx data before the game starts (ie the loading of the game)) then there needs to be an event manager created. Basically lua registers a function made in lua as an if statement or conditional statement) and C will run checks on this untill it is meet then it will execute that callback function. And these callback functions will just edit values of items in a stack.

Really what is needed for lua to work properly is for someone to code a high enough level game engine that it matches how high of a level that lua coding is. Look at Unity game engine for example. What I explained is very very similar to how it is scripted/coded.

But unless you want to do that Id suggest at least getting rid of graphics.c as it is one of the worst gfx libs available(speed wise and ram wise with images).

Just combine that with your normal version retrieval code

[homemister91]

THx I'll do that.

I'm updating my basic LUA script to a LUA HM6, had to remove some useless WiFi code I had in there, but I'm getting a "byte size expected" error on my line,
"inData = ySocket:recv()"
I don't understand what it wants...

[nickdagamer]

nice i love it!

[Mr_Shizzy]

WOW !!

Great work guys

Any chance of:

-.pmf loading
- .gif loading
- .flv loading (homemister mentioned this one a few releases ago)

Thanks again guys
