Summary

I'm just wondering, because I'm trying to upgrade it myself, but I can't find the breaking point in rpg maker. It just says Code: Uncaught TypeError: texture.castToBaseTexture is not a function and that doesn't help much. So I'm wondering if anybody did it already, so I don't have to spend hours on going through rmmz_ files.

I'm just wondering, because I'm trying to upgrade it myself, but I can't find the breaking point in rpg maker. It just says

Code:

Uncaught TypeError: texture.castToBaseTexture is not a function

and that doesn't help much. So I'm wondering if anybody did it already, so I don't have to spend hours on going through rmmz_ files.

Ok, so apparently this change in pixi's code causes it:

Bind empty if texture is invalid (#7635) · pixijs/pixijs@ba416cd

The HTML5 Creation Engine: Create beautiful digital content with the fastest, most flexible 2D WebGL renderer. - Bind empty if texture is invalid (#7635) · pixijs/pixijs@ba416cd

​

So it seems that RPG Maker is feeding 0 to this line instead of Null or undefined.

JavaScript:

texture = texture === null || texture === void 0 ? void 0 : texture.castToBaseTexture();

There is a workaround, by simply changing it to:

JavaScript:

texture = texture === null || texture === void 0 || texture === 0 ? void 0 : texture.castToBaseTexture();

But I still would like to find the line in the engine that is causing it.
