Hi guys,
Ok so in our game we have low res and hi res textures. You switch between them in the options. I got the options working and i put this code onto my actor file:

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"
var lowSetting;
var hiSetting;

while ( true )
{
lowSetting = Game.RegReadNumber(profile+"low",0);
hiSetting = Game.RegReadNumber(profile+"hi",1);

if (lowSetting == 1)
{
this.SetTexture("lowResViolet","actors\Violet\Violet_texture2.png");
}
if (hiSetting == 1)
{
this.SetTexture("hiResViolet","actors\Violet\Violet_texture.png");
}

Sleep(100);
}
I stepped through it and found that it was going through perfect but when it got to the setting of the texture, the model in-game didn't change it's texture. Has it got something to do with refreshing?

Cheers

What is "lowResViolet" and "hiResViolet"? It's supposed to be the mesh for which you're changing the texture. Shouldn't it be the same in both cases?

Oh really?
In the docs it says the name of the material. Would i put "my_model.x" then?

Cheers

EDIT: I put the following in and it didn't work:

Code: [Select]

this.SetTexture("actors\violet\violet.x","actors\Violet\Violet_texture2.png");

Well I meant a submesh. Which is indeed defined by material name. I suppose your model doesn't have two materials, called  "lowResViolet" and "hiResViolet". That wouldn't make much sense.

If your .X model load by default a texture called "violet.PNG" you should put in the scripts:

Code: WME Script

1. this.SetTexture("violet","actors\Violet\Violet_texture2.png");

The "violet.PNG" without the .PNG
