Changing the image of a CCSprite

Question

I have created a number of CCSprites using spriteWithFile.

How do I change the image for the sprite during runtime?

I need to change a few sprites images qui

Answer 1

if You are using SpriteSheets then this will work

CCSpriteBatchNode *batch;
[[CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache] addSpriteFrameWithFile:@"file.plist"];

batch = [[[CCSpriteBatchNode alloc] initWithFile:@"file.png"] capacity:50] autorelease];

[self addChild:batch];

Answer 2

you need to make one cctexture2d object in such a way

CCTexture2D* newtexture = [[CCTextureCache sharedTextureCache] addImage:@"new-texture"]; [mainSprite setTexture: newtexture];

this is a whole thing needed to be done if you want change sprite image texture run time.

Answer 3

In COCOS2D-X you can do this by following way

CCTexture2D *tex = CCTextureCache::sharedTextureCache()->addImage("xyz.png");
sprit_name->setTexture(tex);

iF YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE SPRITE SIZE THEN ALSO WRITE THIS LINE

sprit_name->setTextureRect(CCRectMake(0,0, tex->getContentSize().width, tex->getContentSize().height));

Answer 4

For those who are using Cocos2d-iPhone v 3.0.0 or later

demonSprite.texture = [[CCSprite spriteWithImageNamed:@"steelDemonNormal.png"] texture];

Answer 5

if you want to change the images continuously then write following code in your init method

CCTexture2D *tex1 = [[CCTextureCache sharedTextureCache] addImage:@"image1.png"]; CCTexture2D *tex2 = [[CCTextureCache sharedTextureCache] addImage:@"image2.png"]; CCTexture2D *tex3 = [[CCTextureCache sharedTextureCache] addImage:@"image3.png"]; CCSprite *sprite = [CCSprite spriteWithTexture:tex1]; //Make above variables as class level to access in whole class [self addChild:sprite]; //position the sprite according to your need

write this line where you want to change the image

[sprite setTexture:tex3];
