engineImportTXDImage

[qaisjp]

Probably an okayish idea:

 image engineImportTXDImage(element TXD_Element, string filename)  

This could return an image for use in dxDrawImage and guiCreateImage. Maybe edit ...draw/create image for compatibility for the 'image item'

This could allow you to load specific images from a txd and import them for use as a viewable image (and not on a model)

What do you think about this idea?

i like it, sometimes drawing with dx and .png(only standard format that have transparency) causes problems, need alternative(not sure, does .dds work better, didn't test yet)

* Maybe the "image" could be an image element.

Yep! but I prefer replace a default GTA:SA TXD without having the file

for example

image engineImportPNGintoTXD(248, "248.png", "248hi") 

This would replace the skin 248, importing in the default GTA:SA the png "248.png", and importing it as name "248hi"

wont work that easy...

.txd have alpha mask, and its more like image archive, not image.

MTA SA 1.1 has client-side file functions, so scripting client-side image conversion is possible.

Why is it impossible
