[SOLVED] Manually loading an asset (texture)

[Leonidas]

Hi @Ivolutio,

So, take a look at the following post on how you normally use the asset.ready() callback and the this.app.assets.load() method to start loading an asset:

Bug? Error when trying to load a new texture from code

Right, so if you want a custom name, then you have to create the pc.Asset instance yourself then. Much like you’ve already found out, here is the correct way to do that: var asset = new pc.Asset("My Asset Name", "texture", { url: "https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8873/18598400202_3af67ef38f_q.jpg", }); this.app.assets.add(asset); asset.ready( function () { console.log(this.app.assets.find("My Asset Name")); }.bind(this) ); this.app.assets.load(asset);

But since you are doing the loading yourself, and not using the internal resource loaders, I’d say you only need to replace this line:

asset.loaded = true;

With this:

asset.fire('loaded', asset);

So basically you replicate what Playcanvas does internally, firing the event yourself.
