EngineImageLinkTXD

ADDED/UPDATED IN VERSION 1.6.0 r21695:

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

Syntax

boolean engineImageLinkTXD ( img img_file, string file_path, int txdID )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: img:linkTXD(...)

Required Arguments

img_file: The IMG file you want to link.
file_path: Path to the TXD file you want to link.
txdID: ID of the texture dictionary you want to link to. Use engineGetModelTXDID or engineRequestTXD to get this value.

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()
