Calling a Texture from a scriptable object that is in a scriptable object. [Resolved]

Hi Guys, Im working in a Customized Scriptable Object base system.

On this system, from a Script I call a texture that is situated in a scriptable object that is situated in another scriptable object.

[Game Object, contain the script that make the call]
.....L [Scriptable Object A]
..........L [Scriptable Object B] < Located in Scriptable Object A -> Portrait001
...............L [Texture] < Located in Scriptable Object B -> PortraitArt

So I tried something like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class SelectScreenMaster : MonoBehaviour {
6.  
7.     public CreateSelectScreen selectscreenchars; //Contein the Scriptable Object A
8.     public GameObject[] Portrait; //Mesh where will assign the texture
9.  
10.     void Start () {
11.          Portrait[1].GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTexture = selectscreenchars.Portrait001.PortraitArt;
12.     }
13. }

Got an error in this line:

Code (csharp):

1. Portrait[1].GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTexture = selectscreenchars.Portrait001.PortraitArt;

Error:

(13,101): error CS1061: Type UnityEngine.ScriptableObject' does not contain a definition forPortraitArt' and no extension method PortraitArt' of typeUnityEngine.ScriptableObject' could be found. Are you missing an assembly reference?

Anyone have experience working with Scriptable Objects? Thanks

 

According to your error message, 'Portrait001' is of type

ScriptableObject

.

ScriptableObject

in fact does not contain a definition for 'PortraitArt' Can I see your

CreateSelectScreen.cs

?

 

Thanks chatrat12

here is:
[Scriptable Object A]

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
5.  
6. [CreateAssetMenu(fileName = "New Select Screen", menuName = "Select Screen")]
7. public class CreateSelectScreen : ScriptableObject {
8.  
9.     public ScriptableObject Portrait001;
10.     public ScriptableObject Portrait002;
11.     public ScriptableObject Portrait003;
12.     public ScriptableObject Portrait004;
13.     public ScriptableObject Portrait005;
14.     public ScriptableObject Portrait006;
15.     public ScriptableObject Portrait007;
16.  
17. }

[Scriptable Object B]

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. [CreateAssetMenu(fileName = "New Character", menuName = "Character")]
6. public class CreateCharacter : ScriptableObject {
7.  
8.     public string CharID = "ch_";
9.     public string CharName = "";
10.  
11.     public GameObject Char;
12.  
13.     public Sprite BioArt = null;
14.     public string BioText = "";
15.  
16.     public Texture2D PortraitArt = null;         // <-------------------- Call This Texture
17.     public Sprite VSArt = null;
18.  
19.     //------ Final.
20.     public ScriptableObject CommonMoves = null;
21.  
22.     //------ Final.
23.     public Sprite Final1Art = null;
24.     public string Final1Text = "";
25.  
26.     public Sprite Final2Art = null;
27.     public string Final2Text = "";
28. }

 

You need to change

public ScriptableObject Portrait001

to

public Portait Portrait001

where 'Potrait' is whatever the name of the scriptable object's class is.

 

Yeah, that was the problem. Thanks!
