switching Models/Objects (textures) during playing?

Unity Engine
1

Hi Forum :slight_smile:

this is my first Day with Unity and my first Project is nearly completed :wink: What i wont is during playing to switch (with a key or Button) a Model texture. Is this possible without many scripting?
Or it is perhaps simpler to replace the object with a new texture?
I would like to run in a room and show 4 alternativ textures of my Models / Objects by pressing for example the keys 1-4. How can i do this?

Thank you very much for Answares and sorry for my english :sweat_smile:

best regards
Wojtek

var material1 : Material;
var material2 : Material;
var Changetime= 60.0;

function Updatet() {
if(Input.GetKeyDown("1"))

	
		renderer.sharedMaterial = material1;
				print("changedMaterial");
	
}
if(Input.GetKeyDown("2")){

	
		renderer.sharedMaterial = material2;
				print("changedMaterialagain");
	
}
Untested Should work ok though.

Assets.Create>Javascript

Locate new script in Project Window
Double click it

Paste the code in above
Save

Drag the script onto you model with the meshrenderer.

Look in Inspector Tab
Assign materials from project window to empty slots.

Press play.
