Add a texture dump feature

[osdeverr]

No logs/callstack/whatever, that's a request for a feature. I imagine it as a hotkey toggle, whenever it's on the texture draw function saves every texture/normal map/specular map/etc to a specified folder. Why? Because X360 is relatively old and had pretty decent specs for its time, so game devs have been making their games look better on it. It's very easy to do, so why not? :3

this would be a good thing for any new contributors wanting to help with xenia development to try an implement

@Razzile Ayy where have you been?

This should be fairly easy to do for someone that knows how to work with Vulkan.

You can loop through all the cached textures in the texture cache (in the CP thread), and dump them one-by-one out to the filesystem. There will be no way to assign filenames as we do not have that information.

Nevermind BTW, I needed it for NFSMW but I opened the texture files themselves.

it'd still be useful for vt reverse engineering

Is there a way this can be done? There's a game I need textures for but I can't open the files (the engine is too confusing and the people on Xentax and Zenhax are gone because the forums are all dead/dying).

Any updates on this? I want to dump the high quality font from Crash - Mind Over Mutant and backport it to the PS2/Wii version. I tried extracting the iso itself but i keep getting .rcf files that i can't open. Having an option to dump the textures the same way as on PCSX2 would be a godsend

https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/blob/master/src/xenia/gpu/texture_dump.cc There's a bool for it, but i cant see it actually function, for whatever reason...

I can see that it's disabled by default for some reason. Maybe it needs it to set texture dump set to "true" instead of "false". I don't have any kind of experience in programming so i could be wrong i'm just going off of experience compiling some packages on Linux.

I tried forcing it to true and even setting breakpoints, it seems unused....

It's legacy code from when texture conversion was done on CPU rather than GPU.

Textures can be dumped using PIX or Renderdoc.
