Set object texture from URL?

[blckeagls 12]

Hello! Is it possible to set an objects texture from a URL(website image) image?

I wanted to see if it was possible for people to upload their own textures to billboards and flags.

If anyone knows a way that would be awesome!

Thanks,

Would this work? obj setObjectTextureGlobal [0,"http://example.com/image.jpg"]

Hmm, never heard of it being possible, and in my mind I would think it to be a security risk.

Of course it is possible, but it would be much more work than it's worth to do. Check out callExtension.

But I think hosting an ftp server is something that not many people know how to do, and writing an extension would be extremely difficult for non-programmers.

Ahh, always forget about extentions :).
