Changing the image of a CCSprite

Question

I have created a number of CCSprites using spriteWithFile.

How do I change the image for the sprite during runtime?

I need to change a few sprites images quite regularly.

Answer 1

CCTexture *tex = [CCTexture textureWithFile:fileName];
self.texture = tex;

Answer 2

If you are using SpriteSheets, this will work.

NSString* newSprite = [NSString stringWithString:@"SPRITE_NAME.png"];
CCSpriteFrameCache* cache = [CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache];
[sprite setDisplayFrame:[cache spriteFrameByName:newSprite]];

Answer 3

[yourSprite setTexture:[[CCSprite spriteWithFile:@"yourImage.png"]texture]];
