SKEffectNode to an SKTexture?

问题

SKEffectionNodes have a shouldRasterise "switch" that bakes them into a bitmap, and doesn't update them until such time as the underlying nodes that are impacted by the effect are changed.

However I can't find a way to create an SKTexture from this rasterised "image".

Is it possible to get a SKTexture from a SKEffectNode?

回答1:

I think you could try a code like this (it's just an example):

if let effect = SKEffectNode.init(fileNamed: "myeffect") {
    effect.shouldRasterize = true
    self.addChild(effect)   
    ...         
    let texture = SKView().texture(from: self)
}

Update:

After you answer, hope I understood better what do you want to achieve.

This is my point of view: if you want to make a shadow of a texture, you could simply create an SKSpriteNode with this texture:

let shadow = SKSpriteNode.init(texture: <yourTexture>)
shadow.blendMode = SKBlendMode.alpha
shadow.colorBlendFactor = 1
shadow.color = SKColor.black
shadow.alpha = 0.25

What I want to say is that you could proceed step by step:

get your texture
elaborate your texture (add filters, make some other effect..)
get shadow

This way of working produces a series of useful methods you could use in your project to build other kind of elements. Maybe, by separating the tasks you don't need to use texture(from:)

I've figured this out, in a way that solves my problems, using a Factory.

Read more on how to make a factory, from BenMobile's patient and clear articulation, here: Factory creation and use for making Sprites and Shapes

There's an issue with blurring a SKTexture or SKSpriteNode in that it's going to run out of space. The blur/glow goes beyond the edges of the sprite. To solve this, in the below, you'll see I've created a "framer" object. This is simply an empty SKSpriteNode that's double the size of the texture to be blurred. The texture to be blurred is added as a child, to this "framer" object.

It works, regardless of how hacky this is ;)

Inside a static factory class file:

import SpriteKit

class Factory {

    private static let view:SKView = SKView()  // the magic. This is the rendering space

    static func makeShadow(from source: SKTexture, rgb: SKColor, a: CGFloat) -> SKSpriteNode {
        let shadowNode = SKSpriteNode(texture: source)
            shadowNode.colorBlendFactor = 0.5  // near 1 makes following line more effective
            shadowNode.color = SKColor.gray // makes for a darker shadow. White for "glow" shadow
        let textureSize = source.size()
        let doubleTextureSize = CGSize(width: textureSize.width * 2, height: textureSize.height * 2)
        let framer = SKSpriteNode(color: UIColor.clear, size: doubleTextureSize)
            framer.addChild(shadowNode)
        let blurAmount = 10
        let filter = CIFilter(name: "CIGaussianBlur")
            filter?.setValue(blurAmount, forKey: kCIInputRadiusKey)
        let fxNode = SKEffectNode()
            fxNode.filter = filter
            fxNode.blendMode = .alpha
            fxNode.addChild(framer)
            fxNode.shouldRasterize = true
        let tex = view.texture(from: fxNode) // ‘view’ refers to the magic first line
        let shadow = SKSpriteNode(texture: tex)  //WHOOPEE!!! TEXTURE!!!
            shadow.colorBlendFactor = 0.5
            shadow.color = rgb
            shadow.alpha = a
            shadow.zPosition = -1

        return shadow
    }
}

Inside anywhere you can access the Sprite you want to make a shadow or glow texture for:

shadowSprite = Factory.makeShadow(from: button, rgb: myColor, a: 0.33)
shadowSprite.position = CGPoint(x: self.frame.midX, y: self.frame.midY - 5)
addChild(shadowSprite)

- button is a texture of the button to be given a shadow. a: is an alpha setting (actually transparency level, 0.0 to 1.0, where 1.0 is fully opaque) the lower this is the lighter the shadow will be.

The positioning serves to drop the shadow slightly below the button so it looks like light is coming from the top, casting shadows down and onto the background.
