So i need to change the mesh texture in-game, while user playing.
when i used this code, my object texture becomes pink (texture issue color).
Is there way to fix that?

var texture = ImageTexture.new()
var image = Image.new()
var mesh = block_drop_item.get_child(0).get_child(0)
if block_drop_item.item_name == "block_grass":
	image.load("res://assets/blocks/grass.jpg")
if block_drop_item.item_name == "block_stone":
	image.load("res://assets/blocks/stone.jpg")
texture.create_from_image(image)
mesh.material_override.albedo_texture = texture

also tried this way:

apply_texture(mesh, "res://assets/blocks/grass.jpg")

func apply_texture(mesh, texture_path):
	var texture = ImageTexture.new()
	var image = Image.new()
	image.load(texture_path)
	texture.create_from_image(image)
	if mesh.material_override:
		mesh.material_override.albedo_texture = texture
  • i have checked the texture loader, and it's successfully loads the file, but seems that can't apply it to mesh.

    darceyo Try loading the texture as a resource instead.

        xyz is there way to prepare some textures?
        I mean like when you make it manually (adding image as texture), and then just choose one from the code.

            darceyo Yes but you don't need any of that in this case. Simply do mesh.material_override.albedo_texture = load("res://assets/blocks/grass.jpg")

                xyz

                xyz mesh.material_override.albedo_texture = load("res://assets/blocks/grass.jpg")

                actually it works, but for some reason it set the same texture to all my meshes on the scene

                • xyz replied to this.

                      darceyo That's because they all have the same material. Texture is property of a material not of a mesh.

                          xyz is there way to create a new material within code and then apply this texture to it?

                              darceyo just clone it before making changes to it, you don't have to create a new one from scratch then. See Resource.duplicate()

                              Something like this might work, I can't test it myself right now:

                              mesh.material_override = mesh.material_override.duplicate()
mesh.material_override.albedo_texture = load("res://assets/blocks/grass.jpg")

                              Also keep in mind that this solution doesn't scale well. Usually you'd want to use as few unique materials as possible.
