How can I compare textures?

[Mr Mint]

Hi again ,

I try to put all textures I need into an array. Now I have the problem with the checking of the textures if they are already in the array.

Something like

    For i = 0 To ((UBound(texture_array)) - 1)
        If current_texture = texture_array(i) Then
           texture_exists = True
           Exit For
        End If
    Next i

doesn´t work, would make it too easy .

Thx in advance.

What you can do is for each texture, have a string that holds the path/filename associated with it and just compare those, since filenames are unique. Then if there is a match with the filenames, then that texture is already loaded.

Hey thanks Idian,
although the other way is working I´m still interrested in that. I think I´ll get that. Made c# at school but was not really helpfull as we did it 1/2 a year and the teacher didn´t know what he´s doing but as I write in Cobol, C++ and VB I think I´ll can handle that language too
