changing color on a sprite renderer

Hello,

I am trying to change the color on a sprite/game object so the player has a option to change colors, however when I do set it, the object or part of it disappears, instead of changing color, example below:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. public GameObject Female_char;
3.  
4. public SpriteRenderer f_hair;
5.  
6. public int P_Gender_Index = 0;
7.  
8. public int P_Hair_Index = 0;
9.  
10.  
11. if (P_Gender_Index == 0)
12.         {
13.             if (P_Hair_Index == 0)
14.             {
15.                 f_hair.color = Black;
16.             }
17.             if (P_Hair_Index == 1)
18.             {
19.                 f_hair.color = Blue;
20.             }
21.             if (P_Hair_Index == 2)
22.             {
23.                 f_hair.color = Red;
24.             }
25.             if (P_Hair_Index == 3)
26.             {
27.                 f_hair.color = Green;
28.             }
29.         }
30.  

I do have a method when buttons are pressed, it changes the P_Hair_Index whether P_Hair_Index++ or P_Hair_Index--.


not sure if there is any additional info needed, but let me know.

 

k i literally just tried:

Code (CSharp):

1. f_hair.color = Black;

so tried to set it to black, and the object or the part of the hair of the character just disappears... nothing changes on the properties, like nothing changes such as it disabled/false or hides it, it doesnt change the location of it, it doesnt change the sorting order/layer to anything, i also check the order number and remains the same

is this a bug?

 

use color.Black or color.Red

also, changing color like this will probably not give you the results you want, it only works correctly if the sprite you are changing color is grayscale and even then the range of colors you can get is quite limited

 

gotya thank you for that, i do see a difference, like blue, its really dark, but what i tried to use for the public Color Tan etc. is use the color wheel (see attached for image), i know its all black, but when i change it to Tan or blue, I thought with that public Color Tan would assign the color like so:

Code (CSharp):

1. f_hair.color = Black;

but i guess that wouldnt work?

 

hmm it seems you have alpha = 0, you gotta put alpha to 255 on your colors

also i think color passes as value type, so you have to reset it after changing it in the inspector like that

 

gotya thank you, so i would set Alpha = 0, how or where would i do that? thanks in advance

 

make sure your slider is like this

 

AWESOME IT WORKS, thank you sir
