how to load a texture with iOS
« on: November 13, 2015, 05:20:07 pm »
Hello,

I'm trying to load a Texture with loadFromFile on iOS but no matter what path I'm using I cannot find the file.
What's the correct way to load images on iOS?

Cheers!

Have you tried copying the image file, say `image.png`, to your application resource folder and use `.loadFromFile("image.png")`? If I remember correctly that's how it's supposed to work on iOS, but I might be wrong.

I sorted it out. The problem was that I wasn't including SFML/Main. I didn't know about that. Haven't checked the forums before diving in the code. Then I checked the sources and I understood I was missing something.
Now that's working fine. I might even contribute support for tvOS now.
