How to change a specific material when the mesh has more than one material?

Questions & Answers

Hi,

I'm using the WWW class to change the mesh material texture. My problem is that my mesh contains more than one material (elements 0 and 1) and when I'm applying a "renderer.material.mainTexture", it only changes the "element 0" material texture. But I want it to change the "element 1" material. Can anyone help on how to go about doing this?

***Here is the script I'm using:

// Get the latest webcam shot from outside "Friday's" in Times Square
var url = "http://images.earthcam.com/ec_metros/ourcams/fridays.jpg";
function Start () {
// Start a download of the given URL
var www : WWW = new WWW (url);

// Wait for download to complete
yield www;

// assign texture

renderer.material.mainTexture = www.texture; 
}

You have to change renderer.materials, rather than renderer.material.

var mats = renderer.materials;
mats[1].mainTexture = www.texture;
renderer.materials = mats;
