Closetex | The texture to convert. |
flags | Flags used to control compression and the output format. The default is Texture2D.EXRFlags.None |
Encodes this texture into the EXR format.
This function returns a byte array which is the EXR file data. You can store the encoded data as a file or send it over the network without further processing.
This function does not work on any compressed format.
Although it is best to use this function for HDR texture formats (either 16-bit or 32-bit floats), it can be used with other formats (and the data is converted on the fly).
The default output format is uncompressed 16-bit float EXR and can be controlled using the passed in flags.
For the texture pass in, Texture.isReadable must be true
.
The encoded EXR data will only contain an alpha channel when the passed-in format has one. For single-channel red textures ( R8
, R16
, RFloat
and RHalf
), the encoded data will be in grayscale mode.
