[Behavior] Extract Sprite to base64 string

A quick and simple behavior to retrieve the current frame Sprite as a base64 string. Useful to communicate between the game and the index.html or various hosting services.

For the moment, it works with "Sprite" plugin, or plugin with a textured image. Things using internally a canvas don't work (for example R0j0hound's Canvas). I can add that, but it's going to be per-plugin specific.

Pode: Really powerful and works perfect for sprites. In my opinion the most important object for extracting base64.

Pode how do I get this to work? Everytime I start c2 I get this error

Try putting it into the behavior folder.

so simple... Is there a facepalm emote lol

I know. Its like when you remember doing something, but the thing is just not there anymore.

Ehh blame it on the gremlins.

I realize this is a little old, But I would love to be able to use this behavior. It doesn't seem to be there anymore. Pode

— : I just checked, and I can download it without problems.

hmm... ok so I used this and it seems to be working just fine (I'm sending the extracted image string to a text field to see it) now how would I send that said string from C2 to a php script I'm working on... this may be the missing link for me to be able to send emails (with attachments) from the C2 app I'm making. BTW Pode this is working awesome so far great stuff.

I know it's been years, but you've just saved me from an extra hour of work, thanks a lot Pode!

I'm making a very complicated system of multiplayer and wanted to be able to use Base64 as part of it (uploading custom characters) And now I can!

53 Kb JPEG picture loads to sprite and then converts (with 5-6 seconds idle and 0 fps) into 400 kb text data..

I'm just trying to understand the meaning of this procedure..

It's a pity.. a had a lot of hopes on this conversion

base64 seems only useful if you need to manipulates only strings data, as it "converts" files /data into a string.

Hi Pode and friends,

Your behavior is very usefull for me with extract and the inject Image.

But when i use "Inject" with an instance of a sprite, all the instance are change, not anly the one i have selected.

And impossible to use with iPad? It block my appli or i have black sprite. Why?

Is there solutions?

Thank's

dahu turn off WebGL

I'm so happy I wish I could travel back in time and hug you
