New Texture commands

[iarwain]

Hey all,

I recently added some Texture commands: Texture.Create, Texture.Delete, Texture.Find & Texture.Save.

I can think of two main uses for it:

- create runtime-only textures on the fly via commands in config, instead of doing it via code (for render-to-texture/compositing, for example)

- saving a texture from memory to disk via the console, very helpful when debugging compositing or any runtime texture modification.

  Ex: I have a texture named ProcText, that is either the target of a viewport or has been modified on-the-fly via a call to orxDisplay_SetBitmapData().

I can then execute in the console:

> texture.find ProcText

texture.save <

This will save a ProcText.png (png is the default extension but you can specify a different file name, it's just optional) that you can then inspect with any image viewer.

Cheers!

Hi all,

Actually a shortcut has been added to Texture.Save a few weeks ago. Now one can directly type:

texture.save ProcText to obtain the same result as the former example.
