Tutorial 2. Textures

You'll definitely want to load some textures and apply them to materials. This is very easy. Add a TextureAsset to your scene:

class TestScene: Scene
{
    // other stuff here...
    TextureAsset aTexGrass;
    // other stuff here...
}

Now load it in onAssetsRequest:

override void onAssetsRequest()
{    
    // other stuff here...
    aTexGrass = addTextureAsset("data/grass.png");
}

Create a material and apply the texture:

auto matGround = createMaterial();
matGround.diffuse = aTexGrass.texture;

Yes, in Dagon you can assign both colors and textures to material parameters!

Now you can apply matGround to our plane object from previous tutorial:

ePlane.material = matGround;

And the result should be this:
