Detailed Description
Simple wrapper for 3ds Max textures.
A generic class that wraps all the 3ds Max texture maps. This class directly supports the Bitmap Texture. This can be tested for by calling IExportEntity::IsEntitySupported. If it is not supported then access to the paramblocks, if defined can be obtained by using the properties interface. The usual texture map properties including coordinate rollout access are provided.

Member Function Documentation
| virtual MCHAR* GetTextureName | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the texture map name as seen in the Material Editor.
The name of the TextureMap as seen in the material editor/material browser.
- Returns:
- The name of the texture map
| virtual MCHAR* GetTextureClass | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the Texture class as seen in the Material Editor.
- Returns:
- The name of the texture class
| virtual Texmap* GetMaxTexmap | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Access to the actual 3ds Max definition.
This allows the developer to get hold of extra data such as Texture Transforms, specified from the Coordinates rollout. 3ds Max method of GetUVGen or GetXYZGen can be used for more advanced access
- Returns:
- A pointer to a max class Texmap
| virtual IGameUVGen* GetIGameUVGen | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Access to the Coordinate Rollout.
If the developer needs access to the transforms applied to the texture, then this can be accessed here.
- Returns:
- A pointer to IGameUVGen
| virtual int GetMapChannel | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the map channel being used by the texture.
- Returns:
- The map channel. Valid value is 1..99
| virtual int GetStdMapSlot | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the slot that the bitmap was found in.
It uses the standard 3ds Max convention ID_BU for bump etc.. If this is -1 then it means either the hosting material was not a standard material and the channel conversion could not be performed based on the active shader.
- Returns:
- The Slot definition. Return -1 for an unsupported material.
| virtual MCHAR* GetBitmapFileName | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the filename of the bitmap used by the Bitmap Texture.
- Returns:
- The name of bitmap file
| virtual IGameProperty* GetClipUData | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the Clip U Data from a the Bitmap Texture.
- Returns:
- A pointer to IGameProperty
| virtual IGameProperty* GetClipVData | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the Clip V Data from a the Bitmap Texture.
- Returns:
- A pointer to IGameProperty
| virtual IGameProperty* GetClipHData | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the Clip H Data from a the Bitmap Texture.
- Returns:
- A pointer to IGameProperty
| virtual IGameProperty* GetClipWData | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the Clip W Data from a the Bitmap Texture.
- Returns:
- A pointer to IGameProperty
