Load Texture from custom folder[SOLVED]
« on: September 04, 2015, 08:31:26 PM »
Is there any way lo load a texture (or sprite) from a specified folder (to a texture/sprite variable) without codding? (image file not inside the assets folder)
I found a lot of examples in internet but I do not understand C#.
I also found some questions about that in this forum, but did't find a solution.
If there is not, would be great if someone make an action to that.
Thx

Hi,

 It's called inside Unity "Resources", it's folder from where Assets can be loaded at runtime without any hardcoded binding when editing.

you'll find everything here:

http://hutonggames.com/playmakerforum/index.php?topic=3916.0

 The action ResourcesLoad is also on the Ecosystem

 Bye,

 Jean

Hi Jean.
I need to load textures and sprites outside the resourses folder.
Using "c:\textures" for example.
Something like the existing action "loadfromfile" that work with string, but working with texture and sprite.

Hi,

 ah ok, I see.

try these links, explaning how to use the WWW to get it.

http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/813495/can-i-load-textures-outside-the-resources-folder.html

so here use the regular WWWObject action, it's the url path that will make this happen.

 Bye,

 Jean

Hi Jean.
Thats really worked. Thank you.
In this example, for a texture called fur02.png, the path will be:
file://C:/textures/fur02.png

Any ideas to load a sprite? This action has only text, texture and movie texture.

Hi,

 For this I made recently an action to load a sprite from www:

wwwSprite

You can get it from the Ecosystem.

Bye,
