I’m trying to try to get a texture to load from an external folder outside of the project texture = load("C:/Users/all_a/dowloads a texture from external pathoads/texture")
how do this?

This proposal might give you some hints on how to do this.

var img = Image.new()
var tex = ImageTexture.new()
img.load(path)
tex.create_from_image(img)
$TextureRect.texture=tex

this should work regardless of the path being absolute or inside the project folder
