NiTexturingPropertyGetTextureCount

This is a command from NifSE.

Syntax

(short:textureCount) NiTexturingPropertyGetTextureCount short:nifID short:blockID
(short:textureCount) NiTexPropGetTexCount short:nifID short:blockID

Returns the number of texture slots that the NiTexturingProperty specified by blockID has open. Each slot has a specific meaning to the NIF - slot 0 is always the base map, slot 4 is always the glow map, etc. If a given slot is open, all slots below it must be also, so knowing the number of slots open also indicates which slots are open. For example, a texture count of 5 will mean that the NiTexturingProperty uses the base, dark, detail, gloss, and glow maps. There are a maximum of 12 types of textures, so 12 is the maximum value that this should return.

Having a slot open does not mean that there is necessarily a texture in it. Use NiTexturingPropertyHasTexture to determine if there is.

Returns -1 if the function fails for whatever reason.

The default value of blockID, 0, indicates the NIF's root, a NiNode. NiNode blocks are not derived from NiTexturingProperty, so this function will always require an explicit blockID.

Texture Slots

• BASE_MAP = 0 - a.k.a. the color map
• DARK_MAP = 1
• DETAIL_MAP = 2
• GLOSS_MAP = 3
• GLOW_MAP = 4
• BUMP_MAP = 5
• NORMAL_MAP = 6
• UNKNOWN2_MAP = 7
• DECAL_0_MAP = 8
• DECAL_1_MAP = 9
• DECAL_2_MAP = 10
• DECAL_3_MAP = 11
