Class KX_MeshProxy -- Blender Game Engine 2.49b



 
 




getTextureName

getTextureName(matID)

Returns the name of the texture in the 1st texture slot on a material.
 
Return type:  string
 
matID:  
Type:   integer
    0 = 1st material on mesh
    1 = 2nd material on mesh
     etc, etc, etc

Note:
Returns Null if there isn't a texture in the first texture slot
 
Note:
Returns the name of  texture and not the name of the texture slot.  In other words, if the the first texture slot named Tex1 holds an image named oak_leaf.jpg, it will return oak_leaf.jpg

Sample Code

# get controller
controller = GameLogic.getCurrentController()
 
# get object the controller is attached to
obj = controller.owner
 
# get the 1st mesh
mesh = obj.meshes[0]
 
# get first material
matID = 0

# get the name of the 1st texture 
textureName = mesh.getTextureName(matID)

 
Game developers can use the game engine to create casual video games, first and third person shooters, role playing games, racing simulations and more. The game engine can be used to make both 2D games and 3D games.  Beginning game developers will only need basic knowledge of game design and programming to create rich and complex game models with photo realistic textures to add detail to the graphics of the video game.  Today's games need more than good looking low polygon game models.  Use normal maps and photo realistic textures to create high quality game models.
