changing secondary texture dynamically?

Question

I want to change the texture of a secondary material on my 3d model ( a smiley face, in t$$anonymous$$s case).

When I use renderer.material.mainTexture, it changes the base texture of my model, and not the face texture Here is a screenshot of what my current texture/material set up is.

alt text

So, when I apply mainTexture = xyzTexture (example), the Texture of "body" gets changed whereas I want to change the texture of "happy" Anyone know any way to do t$$anonymous$$s?

You use Material.SetTexture(). Note that the name to used is the one in the shader, w$$anonymous$$ch may be different from the one shown in the Inspector. You may have to open the shader to get the name.

Material.SetTexture only has 3 parameters, though, according to the documentation, none of which are of my concern. Could you post an example, or possibly a direct way to do this for my script?

@Owen Reynolds is right. I did not read close enough. I think you want:

 renderer.materials[1].mainTexture = xyzTexture;
