How to get material name from instance
Below are some code wich instanciates a model. Now I want the models material name to be printed in the Debug.Log. Ive tried a bit with instance.GetComponent but cant get it to work. Anyone know the solution?
var instance : GameObject = Instantiate(Resources.Load(targetModel)) as GameObject;
Debug.Log(???);
I think materials inherent the name function.
Try
instance.material.name
guessing.
material.name.Replace("(Instance)","");
make sure "(Instance)" is typed correctly otherwise it will not replace it
Thanks!
One thing thou, Currently it prints out: "red (instance)" in the debug log. Is it possible to somehow only get the name: "red". Or how do I remove "(instance)" from the string?
I cast the material as a string. var varName : String;
Then I took the varName and did name only. var varNameOnly = varName.Substring(0,1);
If you need more explanation, let me know.
