2d Map with Lines between points, help!

[Majestic12]

Hello Farshizzo,

Thank you for the example.

Regarding loading a map onto a texture, is that only possible with TexQuads? I tried to do it with a quad I made in a Layer(QUADS) and could not wrap my texture onto it (it became white), but it worked fine with TexQuad.

Here is what I tried:

viz.startLayer(viz.QUADS) 
viz.vertex(0,0,0) 
viz.vertex(2048,0,0)
viz.vertex(2048,0,2048)
viz.vertex(0,0,2048)
mapQuad = viz.endLayer()

texture = viz.addTexture('1.png')
mapQuad.texture = texture

You see the coordinates I have are not specified in the Vizard coordinate system(0-1) but in the resolution of the actual image. For example, the map is 2048x2048 and one of the points is 1620,1. I wanted to try making a quad with that size, putting it in the 0-2048 Vizard coordinate system, wrapping the map texture onto it and then simply displaying points and lines on the map.

Do you know if that is possible? Are TexQuads customizable in that manner?

Thank you,

Hello again,

I've tried the following too:

viz.startLayer(viz.QUADS) 
viz.vertex(0,0,0) 
viz.vertex(2048,0,0)
viz.vertex(2048,0,2048)
viz.vertex(0,0,2048)
mapQuad = viz.endLayer()

mapQuad.zoffset(1,1)
mapQuad.texture(viz.add('1.png'))

Using that code I get a flat purple surface. The one in my prior post had a white surface instead.

Hey again,

Sorry for so many replies in a row. I realized that I had forgotten my texcoords in front of my vertices, I fixed it and now I can see the map image.

Thanks!
