data | The array of data to use. |
mipLevel | The mipmap level to write to. The range is 0 through the texture's Texture.mipmapCount. The default value is 0 . |
element | The array slice to copy pixels to. |
sourceDataStartIndex | The index in the source array to start copying from. The default value is 0 . |
Sets the raw data of an entire mipmap level directly in CPU memory.
This method sets pixel data for the texture in CPU memory. Texture.isReadable must be true
, and you must call Apply after SetPixelData
to upload the changed pixels to the GPU.SetPixelData
is useful if you want to load compressed or other non-color texture format data into a texture.
The size of the data
array must be the width × height of the mipmap level, and the data layout must match the texture format, otherwise SetPixelData
fails. You can use byte
for T
if you don't want to define a custom struct to match the texture format.
Unity throws an exception when SetPixelData
fails.
