EngineImageLinkDFF

ADDED/UPDATED IN VERSION 1.6.0 r21695:

This function links DFF file with an IMG container. This function does not change a model immediately. You should use engineRestreamWorld to reload models.

Syntax

boolean engineImageLinkDFF ( img img_file, string file_path, int modelID )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: img:linkDFF(...)

Required Arguments

img_file: The IMG file you want to link.
file_path: Path to the DFF file you want to link.
modelID: ID of the model you want to link to.

Returns

Returns true if IMG file was successfully linked, false otherwise.

Example

You could use the following code:

-- Load IMG
local img = engineLoadIMG( "file.img" )

-- Enable streaming from this IMG
engineAddImage( img )

-- Get model TXD id
local infernusModelID = 411
local infernusModelTxdID = engineGetModelTXDID( infernusModelID )

-- Link DFF and TXD to IMG files
engineImageLinkDFF( img, "infernus.dff", infernusModelID )
engineImageLinkTXD( img, "infernus.txd", infernusModelTxdID )

-- Reload game models
engineRestreamWorld()
