How to load a custom scene Texture?
-
@Moe works with a 32x32
-
Try to restart Pythonista
-
After testing with a bigger image (overworld_tileset.png, 565x564 px, 44kb) I got the same result.
Restarting Pythonista did not help, restarting the iPad did not help. -
@Moe sure you test with the little script, not with a bigger including the little
-
I now imported a photo I took with the iPad (JPG) via the little plus in the bottom left -> Import... -> Photo Library and it worked fine!
Maybe there is a problem using PNGs?
-
@Moe I'had tried with a png. Could you rename your .jpg as .png and retry
-
I found the problem: The images I used For testing where saved in P / Indexed Color mode. This can be checked with PIL
from PIL import Image img = Image.open('sprite.png') print(img.mode) #> 'P'
I converted them with
img = img.convert('RGB')
and saved them again. Now it works. It seems that the Texture class cannot handle files in mode P and does not fail gracefully. This is probably an oversight.
Thank you again @cvp for taking your time to help! Much appreciated. -
@Moe Nice job! 🍾
My tested ping mode was RGBA

You could use
io. BytesIO
in a Context manager soyou dont need to save and open the images. and when you useui.Image.from_data(image_data[, scale])
and set scale to your IOS device pixel/point ratio. most comonly 2. (1:1, 2:1, 3:1 ...) this will scale your image properly to the screen. you can get this by callingscene.get_screen_scale()
heres an example:
import scene import Image import io cache = dict({ "img1":"./image1.png", "img2":"./image2.png", }) for k,v in cache.items(): with Image.open(v) as img: resized_img=img.resize( (int(img.size[0]/2), int(img.size[1]/2)), Image.ANTIALIAS) with io.BytesIO() as byteStream: resized_img.save(byteStream, "tiff") ns.cache[k]=scene.Texture(ui.Image.from_data(byteStream.getvalue(), scene.get_screen_scale()))

@Moe sure that sprite.png in the same folder as your script? For me, it is ok
import ui, scene image = ui.Image('sprite.png') image.show() # this works texture = scene.Texture(image) # this works texture = scene.Texture('sprite.png') # this works
from my understanding shoudn't it be
ui.Image.named('sprite.png')

You're right but try it, it works also without .named
-
well look at that... i think its all beena lie... lol jk but i do wonder what the method
named
might be doing that may be a benefit? -

My current approach is to load the tileset.png which contains all the tiles. I then use
Image.crop()
for every tile I want to extract. I then upscale them usingImage.resize()
by some arbitrary factor, because if I would let the scene upscale the 8x8 textures to something like 64x64, the performance drops hard. UsingBytesIO
I convert them toui.Image
without saving them on disk and from there I can load them as ascene.Texture
.But thank you for the hint that I can load the image and scale them in one operation!
All I had to do to fix the original problem was converting the tileset.png to RGB mode.
