GameObject > Create Other > 3D Text ?

But is could be delicate to manipulate.

Thanks for your quick reply AkilaeTribe, but my 3D object will not be a flat surface, my 3D object is a truck with bumpy / curve surfaces and this dynamic text need to be applied as a texture to this 3D model, is it possible?

Ah, I’ve got another idea. What about a Projector ?

Component > Rendering > Projector

It is used to project what the Lerpz tutorial call a “blob shadow” (fake round shadow, small CPU consumer). But you could use it instead to project a texture ?

If your text change during time, errhh…
