unity Converting byte[] to color[]

[SimssmiS]

Hey I need help with a Problem... I want to thread the conversion from a byte array to a texture. As I am informed I cant do that directly but speed up the process by converting from byte[] to color[] The Question I have is: how do I convert the two Arrays?

 

Thanks in advance

Byte is a Single number. 

Color is a structure of RGBA. 

 

Youd need 4~ bytes for every color. 

 

What I’d do is some kind of for loop with division to say “first 4 numbers are for color 1. Second 4 are for color two” and so on.

Here is the Unity Documentation on Color:

Microsoft's documentation on the Byte variable type:

Microsoft created C#. A Byte in C#

It is the smallest number variable you can use. Values range from 0-255 or

.NET Framework also includes a signed 8-bit integer value type, SByte, which represents values that range from -128 to 127.

I hope that helps.
