Change the tint of a texture by texture name?
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class PSColor : MonoBehaviour {
void OnSetColor(Color color)
{
particleSystem.renderer.material.SetColor("_TintColor", color);
}
void OnGetColor(ColorPicker picker)
{
picker.NotifyColor(particleSystem.renderer.material.GetColor("_TintColor"));
}
}
This works on particles, but I can't figure out exactly what I need to get it to accept the name of a texture. All textures are on the 3D model, but I'd like to allow people to change the colors, but I don't know where to look or what to put in to get it to allow me to call by named textures.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class ObjectColor : $$anonymous$$onoBehaviour {
void OnSetColor(Color color)
{
Debug.Log("Hello", gameObject);
$$anonymous$$aterial mt = new $$anonymous$$aterial(GetComponent<Renderer>().shared$$anonymous$$aterial);
mt.color = color;
GetComponent<Renderer>().material = mt;
}
void OnGetColor(ColorPicker picker)
{
picker.NotifyColor(GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color);
}
}
The code is this ins$$anonymous$$d of particle. But I still can't figure out how to call to shaders by name.
Coloring is a property of the shader, not of a texture. Many shaders don't use color at all, and the ones that do, typically use _Color rather than _Tintcolor. And it is up to the shader how the color is used. There is a shortcut if the color property is '_Color'. You can use Material.color:
renderer.material.color = Color.red;
So the first step is to examine the materials/shaders on your 3D models to see if they have an _Color property. If not, you may have to change the shader you use for your 3D models to get a color overlay. Then you can use material.SetColor() or material.color to set the color.
I do have a color property on them. All the shaders have names, but I can't seem to be able to call to the names of the shaders. Like I have one called Pupil and one called Iris. I'd like to be able to call to the shader by name so it is changed.
Wow. Well, I completely forgot that Unity doesn't go by names for almost anything. I got it working by using an array instead of trying to use the names of the shaders!
