01 What It Does

Three.js Textures: Map Images and Surface Data

Texture loading, color spaces, UV transforms, dynamic images, environments, and memory handling.

Source-based workflowNot an execution benchmark

The Working Approach

Three.js Textures covers loading and configuration for images applied to models. It separates color imagery from data maps, explains wrapping and UV transforms, and introduces canvas, video, compressed, cube, and HDR texture paths.

The source also addresses ownership and memory through reuse, resolution choices, and disposal. These are distinct from choosing the right image for a surface. Loader APIs and UV-channel assumptions remain release-sensitive and need checking in the actual project.

Expected Deliverables

  • Texture loading with explicit map roles
  • UV wrapping, repeat, offset, and filtering settings
  • A reuse, compression, and disposal plan

From Brief to Review

  1. 01
    Classify Images

    Separate color and emissive imagery from normal, roughness, and other data textures.

  2. 02
    Inspect Mapping

    Check UVs and configure repetition, filtering, or rotation to match the surface.

  3. 03
    Control Memory

    Review duplicate loads, useful resolution, compression support, and resource ownership.

02 When to Use It

When to Use It

A working Three.js project and renderer; verify source examples against the installed release. Additional controls and loaders depend on the chosen path.

A Good Fit

  • Multi-Map SurfacesKeep several texture roles clear on one product model.
  • Changing Image ContentCanvas and video textures support surfaces whose content updates over time.

Limits to Check

  • UVs Are Still NeededAn image alone does not repair unsuitable mesh coordinates.
  • Loader Setup VariesCompression and color-management details require version and renderer checks.

Bring These Inputs

  • Texture SetProvide assets with roles, dimensions, and usage rights.
  • Mesh CoordinatesSupply the geometry and UV layout.
  • Delivery BudgetState target devices and cross-scene reuse.

03 Decisions That Matter

Decisions That Matter

  1. Color Is Not Data

    Applying color treatment to a data map can alter what its values mean.

  2. Clear Ownership

    Caching and disposal must avoid both leaked textures and releasing assets still in use.

Review the Setup

Use the relevant threejs-skills directory as agent guidance. It is not the Three.js runtime and does not install scene assets.

Start With One Deliverable

Adapt the scope, source material and constraints in this brief before running the skill.

Example Brief
Use threejs-textures to audit these base-color, normal, and roughness maps. Verify roles and color spaces, inspect UV repetition, and identify duplicate loads. Propose a memory-conscious plan without changing the intended finish.

Inspect the Result

Check the actual output against these observable criteria.

  • Map roles and color spaces are recorded.
  • Patterns are correctly aligned.
  • Reuse and disposal preserve other objects.

06 Questions Before You Start

Questions Before You Start

Should normal maps use base-color treatment?

The source distinguishes data textures and says not to apply sRGB handling to them.

Can a canvas supply the image?

Yes. CanvasTexture is included with explicit update handling.

Does KTX2 work without setup?

No. The example needs a loader, transcoder path, and renderer-support detection.
