Hi,

I am making a race game and i want a minimap.
I created a setup with 3 scenes (Game with hud overlay | Hud with minimap render to texture | minimap with the rendercam and map)
But when i run this it doesn’t give any error it just gives me a bright green image

my code (Executed by Hud minimap-image):


import bge
def render():
  controller = bge.logic.getCurrentController()
  obj = controller.owner
  scene_map = None
  for scn in bge.logic.getSceneList():
    if scn.name == "Minimap":
      scene_map = scn
      break
  if scene_map is not None:
    if "RenderToTexture" in obj:
      obj["RenderToTexture"].refresh(True)
    else:
      scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
      objList = scene_map.objects
      camName = obj['camera']
      cam = objList[camName]
      matID = bge.texture.materialID(obj, "MA" + obj['material'])
      renderToTexture = bge.texture.Texture(obj, matID)
      renderToTexture.source = bge.texture.ImageRender(scene,cam)
      obj["RenderToTexture"] = renderToTexture

Any idea how to fix this?

My goal is to have it like this:

Would be useful for me too :slight_smile:

#3

I see what is happening it seems that the minimap-rendercam goes to the hud scene and works from there instead of the minimap scene

Fixed it! without Render To Texture
Just a overlay scene and the minimap camera on a different position
