Hello,
you can load the texture file into a BaseBitmap and then save that BaseBitmap as a PNG. The following code assumes you are using a Mmaterial:
#get the active material
activeMaterial = doc.GetActiveMaterial()
if activeMaterial != None:
colorShader = activeMaterial[c4d.MATERIAL_COLOR_SHADER]
if colorShader != None:
if colorShader.GetType() == c4d.Xbitmap:
# get the texuture file
bitmapPath = colorShader[c4d.BITMAPSHADER_FILENAME]
# load the texture file into the BaseBitmap
theBitmap = bitmaps.BaseBitmap()
theBitmap. _ **InitWith**_ (bitmapPath)
# get the path / filename to save
savePath = c4d.storage.SaveDialog(c4d.FILESELECTTYPE_IMAGES,"Save as PNG")
# save
res = theBitmap. ** _Save_** (savePath, ** _c4d.FILTER_PNG_** )
if res != c4d.IMAGERESULT_OK:
print("Error saving the bitmap!")
best wishes,
Sebastian
