IGDE Skin Editor

The skin editor allows to create skin resources for your game. Skins resources are static resources assigned to Components or other objects that you can modify during run time using Dynamic Skins. They use Physically Based Rendering and are defined using Skin Texture Properties. See the List of Texture Properties for detailed information about what you can achieve using skins.

Texture

Texture panel Shows the list of all Textures in the skin. Textures have a unique Name which is used to match textures in Model resources. The texture name in the Model resource is the master name so match adjust skin texture names to match.

The Texture Preview panel allows to set texture transformation parameters to apply to the preview model. They are not saved to the skin.

The Property panel shows the list of all Skin Texture Properties assigned to the texture. You can use any name for the properties you like as long as the Graphic Module understands them. See the List of Texture Properties for the officially supported properties. You can find this list also in the IGDE by using the Settings → Texture Property List menu command.

All properties share the Name and Renderable parameter. If Renderable is not empty string the game scripts can assign a Dynamic Skins and add a renderable with matching name to dynamically alter the content of all properties using the same renderable name.

Each property has a Value Type indicating how the content of the property is produced. The panel below changes depending on the selected value type.
