enum TexType
Textures come in various types and flavors! These are bit-flags that tell StereoKit what type of texture we want, and how the application might use it!
Enum Values
Cubemap | A size sided texture that’s used for things like skyboxes, environment maps, and reflection probes. It behaves like a texture array with 6 textures. |
Depth | This texture contains depth data, not color data! |
Dynamic | This texture’s data will be updated frequently from the CPU (not renders)! This ensures the graphics card stores it someplace where writes are easy to do quickly. |
Image | A standard color image that also generates mip-maps automatically. |
ImageNomips | A standard color image, without any generated mip-maps. |
Mips | This texture will generate mip-maps any time the contents change. Mip-maps are a list of textures that are each half the size of the one before them! This is used to prevent textures from ‘sparkling’ or aliasing in the distance. |
Rendertarget | This texture can be rendered to! This is great for textures that might be passed in as a target to Renderer.Blit, or other such situations. |
