Adding a texture to a code-generated terrain, through code.

[anon25233549]

Hey all. I've been struggling with code-generated terrain for now and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to add a pre-made texture, to a code-generated terrain, while the game is running.

I know that I can generate the terrain and then add the texture from the inspector, but how can I do this on the fly when I generate the terrain.

Here is my code at the moment:

TerrainData _terrainData = new TerrainData();
GameObject _terrain = Terrain.CreateTerrainGameObject(_terrainData);

float[,,] splatMapData = _terrainData.GetAlphamaps(0, 0, 1, 1);
splatMapData[0, 0, 0] = 1;
splatMapData[0,0,1] = 0;
splatMapData[0,0,2] = 0; 
splatMapData[0,0,3] = 0;

Now I know that there's now an array for my textures, but how can I add the texture in there?

Thanks in advance.

I'm just reformatting the answer from Slayer, I have no idea if it works or not. The formatting was just freaking me out.

To add texture on terrain, simple assign it. For example:

test[0] = new SplatPrototype(); 
test[0].texture = (Texture2D)Resources.Load("grydirt2",typeof(Texture2D));
test[0].tileOffset = new Vector2(0, 0); 
test[0].tileSize = new Vector2(15, 15);

test[1] = new SplatPrototype(); 
test[1].texture = (Texture2D)Resources.Load("Balmoral",typeof(Texture2D)); 
test[1].tileOffset = new Vector2(0, 0); 
test[1].tileSize = new Vector2(15, 15); 
test[1].texture.Apply(true);

test[2] = new SplatPrototype();
test[2].texture = (Texture2D)Resources.Load("grass",typeof(Texture2D)); 
test[2].tileOffset = new Vector2(0, 0); 
test[2].tileSize = new Vector2(15, 15); 
test[2].texture.Apply(true);

terrain.terrainData.splatPrototypes = test;

        test[2].tileSize = new Vector2(15, 15);
        test[2].texture.Apply(true);</p>


```
    terrain.terrainData.splatPrototypes = test;

```

What is the declaration of test ?

Just trying to reformat the “Best Answer” here, so I can see it properly.
