AndEngine Texture Error

Question

I was following this tutorial and I keep getting an error. Here is the offending line of code:

this.mTexture = new Texture(64, 64, TextureOptions.BILINEAR_PREMULTIPLYALPHA);

I get the error

Cannot instantiate the type Texture

Everything is imported correctly, but I keep getting the error.

Any Ideas?

Thanks!!

This guide is old. Texture class is abstract now, so you can not instantiate objects of it.

Use one of its subclasses - BitmapTextureAtlas for example.

I don't recommend you to continue with this guide, unless it gets updated. I had a short look and I saw a bit out-of-date stuff. There are many up-to-date tutorials in the AndEngine forums, you can try them out.
