For some reason I can’t change the color of an object in the inspector.
Can someone tell me why?
I’m new to unity and trying to make a basic game.
Ok, not really enough info to help pinpoint issue, so ill just state a few basics. Any object (character, or a rock), has texture(s) that are used and put into a Material, then that material is applied to that model (character or rock). So theres a few ways to change hue/color:
- by changing the hue/color setting on the actual Texture itself (which can be done by an external program like Photoshop or Gimp).
- by changing shader settings (depending on what shader used) in your Material, in the inspector.
Now most common shader settings are Albedo, Metallic, and Normal Map. Albedo should have a color changing setting, but if it doesnt work, then you may need to use a different shader, or just change the actual color by method 1).
Another key aspect, you’ll want to create a new material for each object, or each color of object, you require.
Were you by any chance in 2D or Isometric view? I noticed that I couldn’t always assign a color to an object when I was in those views. Try changing to 3D perspective space, then zoom in very close to the object you want to assign a color to and then assigning a color. It worked for me. Hope it helps.

How about one of you explain how you are trying to change the colour and of what?
