| Hi, I'm trying to create s shader with a custom texture that can be modified in runtime by LUA script. LUA will load the texture's image filename and then set the parameter of shader to this loaded value. I know a function setShaderParameter, but this function expects floats as the parameter. Is there a function to manipulate shader textures? Or I cannot change the texture by runtime? Or does anybody knows any other way how to set texture in runtime? Cheers Martin Fabík PS: I don't need switching textures by shader - I know this. I need to set the path to file with texture to display (I don't know texture before loading a mod - texture can be in another mod, etc...). |

| Hey Martin, Hope you have been well ;-) I am not sure what you are changing but how about making the 'shape' in blender or maya and apply multiple materials to it. You could then set a different texture for each material and change it in runtime with something like this.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- LOAD-- self.objectToChange = Utils.indexToObject(id, getUserAttribute(id, "index")); self.materials = {}; for i = 1, getNumMaterials(self.objectToChange) do self.materials[i] = getMaterial(self.objectToChange, i-1); end; -- UPDATE IN RUNTIME -- setMaterial(self.objectToChange, self.materials[materialId], 0); ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The other option if you are only changing the diffuse is to make use of maybe the 'tileAndMirrorShader'. You can then apply the 2, 4, 6, 8 textures to one diffuse and then offset the UV position in runTime using something like this.. -- xTrans and yTrans 0 or 1 (0.5, 0.5 is UV scale for 4 images on one diffuse) setShaderParameter(self.indexToChange, "RDT", 1, 1, 20, 20, false); setShaderParameter(self.indexToChange, "mirrorScaleAndOffsetUV", 0.5, 0.5, xTrans, yTrans, false); setShaderParameter(self.indexToChange, "atlasInvSizeAndOffsetUV", 1, 1, 0, 0, false); I am not sure if any of this helps but just some thoughts.
