How can I manage that a 3dtext show date?
Hello everyone,
My problem is I have a 3dText game object in the scene and I want to make that 3dtext object shows the current date. How can I print current date as 3dtext?
Thanks.

Here is a simple script - just place it on your text object and link the textMesh as the reference.
using UnityEngine;
public class DisplayTime : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField] TextMesh timeText;
void Update()
{
System.DateTime current = System.DateTime.Now;
timeText.text = string.Format("{0}/{1}/{2}", current.Day, current.Month, current.Year);
}
}
As a tip, I wouldn't use textmesh anymore. Everyone should be using TextMeshPro. If you are using it, then just switch out the text type.
Good luck!
Thanks Vega4life, it works but it shows only time in "08:38 P$$anonymous$$" format. I need date, like DD/$$anonymous$$$$anonymous$$/YYYY format not including time.
Thank you very much. It works perfectly.
