Third Party Sending Texture over PhotonNetwork

Hi everyone,

I have 2 unity builds.
1. is my mobile device
the other one is my desktop.

I use the PUN (Photon Unity Network) to connect them both in a single room.

I have texture on one side, similar to a webcam texture. But in my case it's my monitor.
My mobile device build doesn't have access to this texture directly.
I want to send it over the network and update a mesh with this texture. (Copy the texture and update it, same thing)

Hope someone can help me out.
Cheers Zelos

TLDR; Send a texture from the host to a client.

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using Photon.Pun;
5.  
6. public class SendTex : MonoBehaviour
7. {
8.  
9.     private PhotonView PV;
10.  
11.  
12.     void Start()
13.     {
14.         PV = GetComponent<PhotonView>();
15.     }
16.  
17.  
18.     public Texture2D textureToSend;
19.     private Texture2D receivedTexture;
20.  
21.     void Update()
22.     {
23.         if (PV.IsMine)
24.         {
25.             if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.X))
26.             {
27.                 PV.RPC("Send", RpcTarget.AllBuffered, textureToSend.EncodeToPNG());
28.             }
29.         }
30.     }
31.  
32.     [PunRPC]
33.     private void Send(byte[] receivedByte)
34.     {
35.         receivedTexture = new Texture2D(1, 1);
36.         receivedTexture.LoadImage(receivedByte);
37.     }
38. }
39.  

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using Photon.Pun;
5.  
6. public class UpdateTex : MonoBehaviour
7. {
8.  
9.     private PhotonView PV;
10.     public Texture2D receivedTexture;
11.  
12.     // Start is called before the first frame update
13.     void Start()
14.     {
15.         PV = GetComponent<PhotonView>();
16.     }
17.  
18.     // Update is called once per frame
19.     void Update()
20.     {
21.         if (PV.IsMine)
22.         {
23.             PV.RPC("ChangeTexture", RpcTarget.AllBuffered, 1);
24.         }
25.        
26.     }
27.  
28.     [PunRPC]
29.  
30.     void ChangeTexture (int choice)
31.     {
32.         if (choice == 1)
33.         {
34.             GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTexture = receivedTexture;
35.         }
36.     }
37. }
38.  

 

Hi there! Works? I need to implement the function of sending a texture captured with the webcam to the other clients in the room. Like a video conference
