Question by melechlapson · May 24, 2020 at 04:43 AM · renderercolor change

Render.material.color doesnt work

 public static void ChangeColor(GameObject obj, Color color, bool Randomize=false)
     {
         if (!Randomize)
         {
             obj.transform.GetComponent<MeshRenderer>().material.color = color;
             Debug.Log("Color Changed!: " + obj.name+ " "+color);
         }
         else
         {
             color =new Color(Random.value, Random.value, Random.value);
             obj.transform.GetComponent<MeshRenderer>().material.color = color;
             Debug.Log("Color Changed Randomly!: " + obj.name+" "+ color);
         }
     }





I have the following code and when I run the program, the logs show up but the color does not change, what am I missing?

Maybe this will work ?

 Renderer rend = gameobject.GetComponent<Renderer>();
 rend.SetColor("_BaseColor", color);

Try something like this then. By creating new temporary material and using shared$$anonymous$$aterial you are making a material instance. So other objects using the same material wont be affected. I am really not an expert so its better to read more on the renderer functions. Also this time I used _Color ( I was on lwrp before and I think they used different names for the color) https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Renderer-shared$$anonymous$$aterial.html https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Renderer.html

     public GameObject obj;
     public Color color;
 
 
     public void ChangeColor(){
         Renderer rend = obj.GetComponent<Renderer>();
         $$anonymous$$aterial temp_$$anonymous$$at = new $$anonymous$$aterial(rend.shared$$anonymous$$aterial);
 
         temp_$$anonymous$$at.SetColor("_Color", color);
         rend.shared$$anonymous$$aterial = temp_$$anonymous$$at;
     }
 
 
 
     private void Start() {
         ChangeColor();
     }
