Project config 'lover.toml' doesn't exist in the current directory.

You don't have a valid project setup or your terminal is not in the right directory. Lover currently doesn't support searching for lover.toml in parent directories, so you need to have your terminal open exactly where that file is.

See project configuration.

EXE is missing an icon and my details

You need RCEdit to edit EXE files.

See RCedit on the software page and then rebuild your project.

Failed to commit changes when building for Windows

RCEdit is known to fail on some Wine versions.

You can try the GloriousEggroll's Wine fork.

RCEdit can also sometimes fail randomly. Swapping wine versions and running them both can fix that, since the Wine config usually gets updated in that case.

I don't think there's anything that can be done within Lover to fix that, except implementing the EXE editing feature directly into Lover instead of relying on 3rd party tools.

See how to change wine and rcedit location

The love target is always built no matter what!

The love file is required in all cases to embed the game's code into the executable file. Build targets have a dependency system which will first build the required targets.

This is intentional and you should not worry about it.

I have a problem with something else.

Check the issues or open a new one.
