[C++] How to Add/Load custom Image?

[syngravez]

Hey Forum,

 

I've been working on this for a while now and not sure if it's working or if it's something I need to add in or define even.

 

At the moment I've been trying to work on how to add in custom image into the ".RPF" files.

So fair I've managed to add in custom ".DDS" files or even made a new ".XTD" file as a second alternitive.

 

I've put these files into the "Update.RPF" now the thing is I try and call it as a sprite texture so for example it would go like this:

 

 

Function:

if (!has_streamed_texture_dict_loaded("BlackLegion")){request_streamed_texture_dict("BlackLegion", 0);}draw_sprite("BlackLegion", "imagenamehere", Sprite_xPos, Sprite_yPos, Sprite_xWidth, Sprite_yLength, Sprite_Rotation, 255, 255, 255, titleAlpha); 

When I load this in game it just loads blank as I thought it would do. Now when ever I try and call a different ".XTD" file in the same ".RPF" It will load up fine.


If anyone can help me out with this or people that has good experience in editing the game files and what not it would be appricated.

Thanks in Advanced!,

Why are you trying to add an image to an rpf? What is your end-goal?

If it's just to draw a sprite on screen, then use the DirectX hook built into ScripthookV. Look at the NativeSpeedo example.

Ok thanks for the heads up! ,

 

My end goal would be adding a custom .png's to build the menu instead of using default UI to draw menus and such.
