setObjectTexture

Description

Applies given texture to object's selection. See also Procedural Textures and Retexturing with setObjectTexture.

Note

• Not all objects can be textured this way. To find out, run getObjectTextures command on an object. Empty array [] usually indicates it cannot be textured.
• All textures must have a resolution of 2a × 2b (e.g. 16×16, 16×32, 64×256, 512×512, ...). The largest texture size supported by the RV engine is 4096×4096.
• Supported formats: .pac, .paa, .jpg, .jpeg, .ogg, .ogv

Syntax

object setObjectTexture [selection, texture]

Parameters:

• object: Object
• selection: Number or Arma 3 v2.10 String - index of the selection. It is defined in the hiddenSelections array in the vehicle's config (starting with 0). If a string is given, it referes to a hiddenSelection name or clan selection instead of an index.
• texture: String - path to texture. Since Arma 3 v2.20 using "#reset" would reset to default texture.

Returns: Nothing

Examples

Example 1

_objectname setObjectTexture [0, "\pboname\texture.paa"];
_objectname setObjectTexture [1, "\pboname\texture2.paa"];

Example 2

_obj setObjectTexture [0, "#(rgb,8,8,3)color(1,0,0,1)"];

Example 3

_obj setObjectTexture [0, "#(argb,512,512,1)r2t(rendersurface,1.333)"];

Example 4

Disable randomization before applying a texture to a vehicle in the Editor (if it is a vehicle that supports randomization):

this setVariable ["BIS_enableRandomization", false];
this setObjectTexture [0,"#(rgb,8,8,3)color(1,0,0,1)"];

Example 5

The "clan" selection can be used to apply a texture to the areas that usually display the squad.xml logo:

MyVehicle setObjectTexture ["clan", "\a3\missions_f_epa\data\img\orbat\b_111_texture_ca.paa"];

Multiplayer
