Class CompressedTexture2D

Namespace
Godot
Assembly
GodotSharp.dll

A texture that is loaded from a .ctex file. This file format is internal to Godot; it is created by importing other image formats with the import system. CompressedTexture2D can use one of 4 compression methods (including a lack of any compression):

- Lossless (WebP or PNG, uncompressed on the GPU)

- Lossy (WebP, uncompressed on the GPU)

- VRAM Compressed (compressed on the GPU)

- VRAM Uncompressed (uncompressed on the GPU)

- Basis Universal (compressed on the GPU. Lower file sizes than VRAM Compressed, but slower to compress and lower quality than VRAM Compressed)

Only VRAM Compressed actually reduces the memory usage on the GPU. The Lossless and Lossy compression methods will reduce the required storage on disk, but they will not reduce memory usage on the GPU as the texture is sent to the GPU uncompressed.

Using VRAM Compressed also improves loading times, as VRAM-compressed textures are faster to load compared to textures using lossless or lossy compression. VRAM compression can exhibit noticeable artifacts and is intended to be used for 3D rendering, not 2D.

Methods

HasGodotClassMethod(in godot_string_name)

Check if the type contains a method with the given name. This method is used by Godot to check if a method exists before invoking it. Do not call or override this method.

protected override bool HasGodotClassMethod(in godot_string_name method)

Parameters

method godot_string_name

Name of the method to check for.

Returns

bool

HasGodotClassSignal(in godot_string_name)

Check if the type contains a signal with the given name. This method is used by Godot to check if a signal exists before raising it. Do not call or override this method.

protected override bool HasGodotClassSignal(in godot_string_name signal)

Parameters

signal godot_string_name

Name of the signal to check for.

Returns

bool

InvokeGodotClassMethod(in godot_string_name, NativeVariantPtrArgs, out godot_variant)

Invokes the method with the given name, using the given arguments. This method is used by Godot to invoke methods from the engine side. Do not call or override this method.

protected override bool InvokeGodotClassMethod(in godot_string_name method, NativeVariantPtrArgs args, out godot_variant ret)

Parameters

method godot_string_name

Name of the method to invoke.

args NativeVariantPtrArgs

Arguments to use with the invoked method.

ret godot_variant

Value returned by the invoked method.

Returns

bool
