Question by Kxnghs · Jun 27, 2013 at 08:14 PM · errorshadertangent

"Shader wants tangents, but the mesh doesn't have them"

So, whenever I want to enter playmode, I get this error. I'm pretty sure that it occured when I was changing the shader of a material - but even though I changed it the error still remains. Any Ideas?

Sounds like your model doesn't have tangents, or else you don't have the Tangents drop-down set correctly in the import settings.

This might also occur if you're applying the material to a billboard object. If it is a model, you might need to recalculate the tangents, which you can do from the model import settings.
