Upload image from user drive and use it as a texture in game.[SOLVED]

[Michaelb]

Greetings ,

i have a hardy here...

Can this be done?

1) Click on gui texture or a 3d model or anything in the game (runtime)
2) Opens upload image window
3) once image is uploaded put image on a plane as texture  (or change material texture which i know how to do already)

Only with playmaker , or another asset (ngui or Daikon Forge for example) that works with playmaker and allow me to do this , without coding.

Any help is appreciated

Michael.

Hi,

 first, your texture will HAVE to be enabled for writing, which may not be the case in may situation, at least by default, so that's the first thing.

 then, I would strongly advise that you look for a system meant to provide this functionnality.

Typically, I know that with easySave you can do that.

there is a sample with php/mysql code to save data on a server. And I have ported this for ArrayMaker, so you have this available within PlayMaker.

Greetings Jean ,

first of all thank you very very much for the reply.

i have easy save 2 , but client cant deal with php so we dumped this method.

I managed to do this , with wwwobject (read texture) then set / get texture and created in html 5 an external crop image /  image up loader.
