(39) 's Extra Blueprint Nodes for You as a Plugin, No C++ Required!

[MadPolygon]

**New Node: Load Texture 2D From File!

JPG, PNG, BMP, ICO, EXR, and ICNS are Supported File Formats !**

With node you can load a Texture 2D from a file during runtime!

I output for you the width and height of the loaded image!

Now you can easily create Texture 2D’s from image files in Blueprints, during runtime!

Enjoy!

PS: Make sure to include the file extension when you use node!

**C++ Code For You**

Here is the core C++ function involved, entire source is in the download! I wrote my own Enum for the file formats.



```


UTexture2D* UVictoryBPFunctionLibrary::Victory_LoadTexture2D_FromFile(const FString& FullFilePath,EJoyImageFormats ImageFormat, bool& IsValid,int32& Width, int32& Height)
{
IsValid = false;
UTexture2D* LoadedT2D = NULL;

IImageWrapperModule& ImageWrapperModule = FModuleManager::LoadModuleChecked<IImageWrapperModule>(FName("ImageWrapper"));

IImageWrapperPtr ImageWrapper = ImageWrapperModule.CreateImageWrapper(GetJoyImageFormat(ImageFormat));

//Load From File
TArray<uint8> RawFileData;
if (!FFileHelper::LoadFileToArray(RawFileData, * FullFilePath))
{
return NULL;
}


//Create T2D!
if (ImageWrapper.IsValid() && ImageWrapper->SetCompressed(RawFileData.GetData(), RawFileData.Num()))
{
const TArray<uint8>* UncompressedBGRA = NULL;
if (ImageWrapper->GetRaw(ERGBFormat::BGRA, 8, UncompressedBGRA))
{
LoadedT2D = UTexture2D::CreateTransient(ImageWrapper->GetWidth(), ImageWrapper->GetHeight(), PF_B8G8R8A8);

//Valid?
if (!LoadedT2D)
{
return NULL;
}

//Out!
Width = ImageWrapper->GetWidth();
Height = ImageWrapper->GetHeight();

//Copy!
void* TextureData = LoadedT2D->PlatformData->Mips[0].BulkData.Lock(LOCK_READ_WRITE);
FMemory::Memcpy(TextureData, UncompressedBGRA->GetData(), UncompressedBGRA->Num());
LoadedT2D->PlatformData->Mips[0].BulkData.Unlock();

//Update!
LoadedT2D->UpdateResource();
}
}

// Success!
IsValid = true;
return LoadedT2D;
}
