Accessing material of particle renderer??
Hi
I'm using Unity Indie 2.6.1 and have following code:
function Start () {
var c = Color(Random.value,Random.value,Random.value,1);
renderer.material.color = c;
}
If I've understood the documentation correctly this should also work with a particle renderer but I have no reaction at all. It works without any problems with a mesh renderer.
Does anybody have a suggestion what could be the problem?
Thank You!

The problem is that most particle shaders do not use "_Color" for their main color property.
(material.color is just a shortcut for material.SetColor("_Color", ...))
Most particle shaders right now use "_TintColor" as their color property. So you should do:
renderer.material.SetColor ("_TintColor", c));
