I recently was successfully able to make my very first eboot, but Sousanator told me that I could load my lua files onto an eboot so ppl wouldn't have to look at my files.
Anyways, how would you go on loading .lua files which would also load images and what not into an eboot?
Like what would be the code in C++ to load a lua file, which loads other lua files and other files and images?

**SG57** · 08-17-2006, 06:56 PM

Youve got to be kidding me......

Is that you mailas?

**Gonrai** · 08-17-2006, 07:41 PM

Yes, I was told that you had to use the boot.lua file, but when I downloaded the source from Luaplayer.org, there was nada, no boot.lua file.
Yes this is Mailas, and why does it matter to u?

**Ravine** · 08-17-2006, 07:47 PM

Go inside the Lua Player Source, then go to SRC -> Auxiallry -> boot.lua

**SG57** · 08-17-2006, 08:29 PM

Pointless to embed your LUA scripts anyway... For one, you can see your code by opening the EBOOT.PBP, scroll down half way and bam... there's your code. Secondly, any real dev wouldnt even want to look at LUA code

Just kidding, depends on the developers thoughts on LUA i suppose.
