Materials turn textures white or black.

Unity Engine

My problem/Issue is as follows, attempting to add a material to any block other than a colour, will result in a white or black rendering.

Now I will start by saying that I have tried to figure this one out over the course of several days and multiple hours, I have looked at 10+ tutorials and even copying that, I can not get it to work.

I have created a new project in URP, but the results remain the same. I can’t for the life of me figure this out and I am about to go insane trying to fix this.
I have no idea what I am doing wrong, but I feel like I am missing something basic and I have ran out of ideas on how to fix it, other than just giving up.

I have attached some screenshots showing the settings I am currently using on my materials. And one that shows the material, in which I only swapped it’s colour, the one that for some reason works.

Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong would be really appreciated.

maybe you dont have a light, no light will make a lit shader black always, a strong light will make it white always

you should start with an unlit shader maybe, and try from there

It is a 2D game, even with the 2D URP shader that’s lit, it still shows up white.

if its 2d or 3d it doesnt matter

anyway what you should put in your material is a shader called sprites default unlit

if you want you can post your sprite square and we can see whats going on

Thank you for your help, sadly it doesn’t appear to make a difference.

This is the unlit sprite material, it does not make a difference.

So the only thing i can think of is that your shader is set to URP/2D/Sprite-Lit-Default. I just tried this as a test in my URP project and it works with the typical URP/Lit shader. When i turn it to the shader you are using, URP/2D/Sprite-Lit-Default, i get the same issue. I guess just try changing your material to the URP/Lit shader.

As a test i just did, that 2D/Sprite-Lit shader does work if it is an Image or Raw Image from the UI objects.

So TLDR, URP/Lit for 2D objects, URP/2D/Sprite shader for UI Images/Raw Images
