    Okay, got the pbr to work, thank you

    I’ve tried to figure out the preloader to show a ‘loading’ gif, but I’m still too much of a noob here. I see where you got the code from that GitHub discussion, but you mention ‘just showing a gif while it loads’. That’s all I want to do – is that a different thing? Do I need that ImageLoader() fix?

    It’s different. That fix allows you to detect how much data is loaded at the moment, which is useful for a progress bar or when displaying percentage. So, for a gif preloader it’s not needed.

    I made some changes to the puzzles and to the js code.

    Basically, you need to create an HTML element for the gif preloader and style it with some CSS rules:
    gif-prepare.png
    After that, it’s just about switching its visibility when you start/finish loading a texture:
    gif-switchvis.png

    Here’s the modified project: ATI2-3-preloader.zip

    Sorry, this particular file was linked from a temporary directory on our server which we periodically clean up. We’ll try to use a more persistent storage in the future.

    I’m trying it and I’d say thanks to the forum for your help.
    Could Ivan reload his file to try it?
    Thanks.

    Kind Regards.

    Hi,

    If you’re looking for a way to replace textures, there is now a dedicated puzzle for that https://www.soft8soft.com/docs/#manual/introduction/Puzzles.replace_texture

    Hi, first time posting on the forum. As a JavaScript noob, I’m appreciating this fantastic app, and thank you for putting it together. I would like to find out if the Replace Texture block is capable of dynamic texture from a HTML Canvas source external to the V3D script. I have successfully get it to replace texture on file, but not from a dynamic canvas element. Please see attached screen-grab of the puzzle. Thanks.

    Hi,

    Using an HTML canvas as a texture is possible but requires some coding. See here the example https://cdn.soft8soft.com/demo/examples/index.html?q=canvas#webgl_materials_texture_canvas

    Hi Yuri, thanks for getting back. I attempted to write a callback function which gets called in Puzzle. I couldn’t get it to work, but I’m getting there. Based on Console error message, I believe the line –
    var liveCanvas = parent.document.getElementById(‘fabcan’);
    fails to assign the canvas element value, subsequently, the Textureloader receives null value input. At the moment, the html canvas element ‘fabcan’ has only a static image in the 2D context.

    I’m new to coding, so I could be completely way off base. Your input is much appreciated.

    Hi,

    is it crucial that you replace a texture in a material and not replace the material itself? If not, there is a good tutorial – it is about video textures but you can easily make it canvas using the source code from the above-mentioned example.
