TextureFilter:Void match_text:String, texture_flags:Int32=0

Parameter	Mode	Type	Default	Description
match_text	In	String	required	Text to look for in the file name.
texture_flags	In	Int32	0

Description

Adds a rule: every texture loaded afterwards whose file name contains the given text gets the extra flags. The test ignores upper and lower case, an empty text matches every file, and the rules add up, so a file that matches several rules gets all of their flags. The rules are only applied by LoadTexture, LoadAnimTexture, brushes and mesh loading, and they do not change textures that already exist. ClearTextureFilters removes them all. At the start, and again every time a graphics mode is opened with Graphics or Graphics3D, there is one rule that matches every file and adds the flags 1 + 8 (color and mipmaps), and it replaces the rules you added before.

This is mostly useful when loading a mesh, since you do not choose the flags of the textures it pulls in. A rule such as TextureFilter "_alpha", 1 + 2 makes every file with _alpha in its name an alpha texture.
