Image to 3D level
Hi: I was wondering if i would be able to take a image into unity like a height map and instead using each individual pixel based on color to spawn a 3D prefab in scene in the editor. no run time needed. I remember seeing a tutorial about it and I can not seem to find anything due to the new tilemaps in 2D taking all the google searches. Thanks: James
Hello @jimjames, Just some tips here not real answer, To instanstiate a level based on texture just loop for each pixels using
Color c = myText.GetPixel(x,y)
and then spawning something depending of the color.
To make it editor only just put "[ExecuteAlways]" just before your class and then make a custom editor like this
[CustomEditor(typeof(MyScript))]
public class MyEditor : Editor
{
MyScript comp;
public void OnEnable()
{
comp = (MyScript)target;
}
public override void OnInspectorGUI()
{
bool GenerateWorld = GUILayout.Button("Generate World");
if (GenerateWorld)
{
comp.Generate();
}
}
}
If you want to build an real world (terrain like) with an heightmap i suggest you to search at "Mesh from heighmap".
If you want an more precise answer please provide more information about what you trying to do :)
I hope that will help you,
Raph
