RenderTexture not working when switching to Android or iOS?

Unity Engine

Hi there! I’m having problems with renderTextures when switching to Android. (And iOS it seems.)

I’m using a 2nd camera to render to a render texture, that gets read directly into a material that processes it a little before mapping it onto some geometry. This all works great for web builds, but when we switch to Android or iOS, the render texture goes black. Even if I take the material and bypass all processing, so it returns the input renderTexure as is it still comes out black.

I’ve looked through the forums and I’ve tried a as many suggestions as I could find.
(

  • The renderTexture camera has a depth below the main camera
  • I checked that antialiasing was off on the renderTexture
  • turned on “ZTest Always” on the simple shader assigned to the objects seen by the renderTexture camera
  • tried adjusting the Queue ordering in the materials to no avail.
    )

It all works for the web, both interactively and in a browser, but as soon as I switch to Android it goes black.

This is Unity 4.5.2f1

Any help would be appreciated!

please bug report with small repro case. From the sound of it you do everything quite correct, so there might be some setup issue or somthing

Do you have the Android and iOS Pro add-on?
