Splitting a full image into smaller images
Hi Guys
I would like to be able to take a full image and divide it into smaller images but when you put those small images together they form the full image. Your assistance will be gladly appriciated.
Kind Regards;

Hi,
It depends very much the purpose and implementation of this split.
If you want to create some planes with each showing a part of the same image, then you don't need to split the image but rather apply the right uv map values so that that each planes show a portion of the bigger image.
If you want to really cut down the image into several smaller image in memory DURING the game play, then you should look into GetPixels and SetPixels
But, if you only need this before your game play, then you'll better off using photoshop or any image editing software to split your big image into several and have them ready.
Hope that helps,
Jean
