        # **[Texture3D](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Texture3D.html) preview for [Unity](https://unity3d.com)**

## This package enables interactive previews of [Texture3D](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Texture3D.html) assets in Unity's Inspector window.

**[You can directly download the Unity package by clicking here or by going in the Release section](https://github.com/raphael-ernaelsten/Texture3DPreview-for-Unity/releases)**

### Previews and thumbnails of [Texture3D](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Texture3D.html) asset

When importing the Texture3D asset, Unity will automatically render a preview of the Texture3D to display in the Project window.

When selecting a Texture3D asset in the Project windows, Unity will display an preview of the Texture3D in the Inspector.

### Previews of a [Texture3D](https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Texture3D.html) field on a GameObject's component

To enable Texture3D field preview on a GameObject's component, add 

    [Texture3DPreview]

in front of the declared field.

### Requirements 

 - Shader model 3 capable graphic card

 - Unity 2017.1+

----------

### TODO 

 - Preview non uniform Texture3D in their respective ratio (currently all previews will be cube)

 - Add alpha blend mode for rendering previews

----------

### Know issues / limitations

 - Previews are currently in additive mode

 - Previews of multiples Texture3D assets don't work

 - Sometimes, the preview of a Texture3D field becomes empty

### Acknowledgment

The sample Texture3D asset provided with this package was made using [MRI scans found on this website](https://neil.fraser.name/news/2007/11/19/).

Here's the process :

 - selected [the right-to-left gif](https://neil.fraser.name/news/2007/RL.gif)

 - rescaled it to 128x128 and extracted all the frames using [VirtualDub](http://www.virtualdub.org/)

 - used [Unity's VFX Toolbox Image Sequencer](https://forum.unity.com/threads/release-thread-vfx-toolbox-image-sequencer.438465/) to resample the frames count and lay them on an images sheet

 ![Images sheet](https://i.imgur.com/hJvhZ78.jpg)

 - used a custom tool to build a Texture3D (basically create a Texture3D with the correct size then copy the images from the sheet as slices) from this sheet and save it as an asset
