Data Storage (Levels, Layers, Faces)#
An image storage contains one or more sub-images with certain dimensions. Each type of image has a specific arrangement of sub-images in its storage. Images can have mipmaps - smaller versions of the same image used to help in sampling and filtering. Each mipmap level has a separate set of sub-images.
Since an image can store multiple sub-images, it is important to be able to identify a specific sub-image in it. Each sub-image can be uniquely identified by the following numbers, depending on the image type:
- For images that can have mipmaps, the mipmap level that contains the sub-image.
- For Array Images, the array layer that contains the sub-image.
-
For Cubemap Images, the face within that array layer and mipmap level.
For Cubemap Array Images, the layer and face are combined into layer-faces.
Therefore, an image can be thought of as a three-dimensional array of sub-image. The first index is the mipmap level, the second is the array layer, and the third is the cube map face. Another way to think of it is that an image has a number of mipmap levels. Each mipmap can have a number of array layers. And each array layer has a number of faces. Every sub-image of an image can therefore be uniquely referenced by the face, layer, and level indices.
Pixels#
The color of each pixel of an image is represented by the Pixel structure. Pixel format is determined by the image file format (see the table below).
Image type | Pixel format |
---|---|
8-bit unsigned formats: R8, RG8, RGB8, RGBA8 |
Pixel color components are in range from 0 to 255. E.g. Pixel(10, 10, 255, 255) for RGBA8 Color components are accessed via Pixel.i |
16-bit unsigned formats: R16, RG16, RGB16, RGBA16 |
Pixel color components are in range from 0 to 65535. Color components are accessed via Pixel.i |
16-bit float formats: R16F, RG16F, RGB16F, RGBA16F |
Pixel color components are in range from 0.0f to 1.0f. Color components are accessed via Pixel.i |
32-bit float formats: R32F, RG32F, RGB32F, RGBA32F |
Pixel color components are in range from 0.0f to 1.0f. Color components are accessed via Pixel.f |
Usage Example#
This sample component demonstrates how to:
- Create an image.
- Set color information for each pixel of the image using the Pixel structure.
- Save the image to a file.
- Get current image format.
- Convert the image to another format.
- Use the created image as an albedo texture for a material assigned to an object.
- Get color information for each pixel of the image using the Pixel structure.
Create a component named ImageClass and copy the code given below. Then assign a component to any desired node of the Object type, to see its albedo texture replaced by a new created image.
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Unigine;
[Component(PropertyGuid = "AUTOGENERATED_GUID")] // <-- this line is generated automatically for a new component
public class ImageClass : Component
{
private void Init()
{
// write here code to be called on component initialization
// image size parameters
const int ASPECT_RATIO = 1;
const int width = 256;
const int height = width / ASPECT_RATIO;
Unigine.Image image = new Unigine.Image();
// creating an image of the specified size
image.Create2D(width, height, Unigine.Image.FORMAT_RGBA8);
// declaring a pixel to store color information
Unigine.Image.Pixel pixel = new Unigine.Image.Pixel();
for (int x = 0; x < width; x++)
for (int y = 0; y < height; y++)
{
// setting pixel components
pixel.i.Set(x, 0, 0, 195);
// setting the color of the image pixel at (x,y)
image.Set2D(x, y, pixel);
}
// if a node is an object, we set our image as an albedo texture for its material
if (node.IsObject){
Material material = (node as Unigine.Object).GetMaterial(0).Inherit();
// setting our image as an albedo texture of the material
material.SetTextureImage(material.FindTexture("albedo"), image);
(node as Unigine.Object).SetMaterial(material,0);
}
else {
Log.Message("\nNode is not an object!");
}
// saving our image to a *.DDS file
image.Save("myimage.dds");
// printing current image format to the console
Log.Message("\nImage format: {0}", image.FormatName);
// converting our image to the 32-bit float format
image.ConvertToFormat(Unigine.Image.FORMAT_RGBA32F);
// saving a converted image to a *.DDS file
image.Save("myimage2.dds");
// printing image format after conversion to the console
Log.Message("\nImage format after conversion: {0}", image.FormatName);
// getting the first pixel for each row of the image and printing its color value to the console
for (int x = 0; x < width; x++)
{
pixel = image.Get2D(x, 0);
Log.Message("\nPixel ({0}, 0) color = ({1}, {2}, {3}, {4})", x, pixel.f.x, pixel.f.y, pixel.f.z, pixel.f.w);
}
}
private void Update()
{
// write here code to be called before updating each render frame
}
}
