Character Customization Script help

Questions & Answers
1

Hi, I made a character customization script but I need some help with the system I am currently using. I have a room that is away from the main map that will show the character. I have the Player disabled as you can see in the script but when you change the skin it only changes the previews skin, not the player in the game. So how would I make it so the renderer.material.maintexture is applied to something else? Big thanks if you can help me! :slight_smile:

EDIT
The issue with doing multiple things with the gui button is fixed, but I still need help with editing a different object.

Script:

#pragma strict

var guiSkin : GUISkin;

var player : GameObject;
var playerModel : GameObject;
var preview : GameObject;

var skin1 : Texture2D;
var skin2 : Texture2D;
var skin3 : Texture2D;

var btnTexture1 : Texture;
var btnTexture2 : Texture;
var btnTexture3 : Texture;

function Start()
{	
      player.active = false;
}


//How to change different object (playerModel) texture instead of object with the script applied to?

#pragma strict

var newname : String = "What's Your Name?";
var username : GameObject;
var guiSkin : GUISkin;
var ShowButton = true; 

var player : GameObject;
var playerModel : GameObject;
var preview : GameObject;

var skin1 : Texture2D;
var skin2 : Texture2D;
var skin3 : Texture2D;

var btnTexture1 : Texture;
var btnTexture2 : Texture;
var btnTexture3 : Texture;

function Start()
{	
      player.active = false;
}


//How to change different object (playerModel) texture instead of //object with the script applied to?

function OnGUI() {	
GUI.skin = guiSkin;
  if (ShowButton) {
		if (GUI.Button(Rect(250,250,100,100),btnTexture1))
			renderer.material.mainTexture = skin1;
		if (GUI.Button(Rect(450,250,100,100),btnTexture2))
			renderer.material.mainTexture = skin2;
		if (GUI.Button(Rect(650,250,100,100),btnTexture3))
			renderer.material.mainTexture = skin3;
           if (GUI.Button(Rect(450,400,100,50),"Done"))
{
  player.active = true;
  Destroy (preview);
  ShowButton = false;
}
                
                
	}
	}

For your first issue, your if-then statement is malformed. You need braces around your statements, otherwise only the first statement is part of the conditional & the second happens always.

if (GUI.Button(Rect(450,400,100,50),"Done"))
{
  player.active = true;
  Destroy (preview);
}

Found out how to change another objects texture with the variable, simply did

“playerModel.renderer.material.mainTexture = skin3;”
