public bool Create ();

Returns

bool True if the texture is created, else false.

Description

Actually creates the RenderTexture.

RenderTexture constructor does not actually create the hardware texture; by default the texture is created the first time it is set active. Calling Create lets you create it up front. Create does nothing if the texture is already created.
