Have a Mesh with a Material on it

I have a Mesh Renderer with a Material on it and the Material has a texture that I want to localize.
What would be the best way to do it? I tried adding a localized Material entry and then when I add a Localize component onto my object that has a Mesh Renderer, the Localize component has no target to link to.

Hi,
The current version doesn't allow localizing the texture of a material in a MeshRenderer. It can change the textures in UI elements, and the materials but no the MeshRenderer.
Adding new targets is really easy so I will definitively add that in the next release!

In the meantime, a workaround you can use is to add a Localize component to the MeshRenderer (even if the component doesn't show any target, it will execute the callbacks). So, create an script and add the following callback to the localize component.
	public class TextureCallback : MonoBehaviour 
	{
		public void OnModifyLocalization()
		{
			if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Localize.MainTranslation))
				return;

			var mesh = GetComponent<MeshRenderer>();
			var loc = GetComponent<I2.Loc.Localize>();

			var texture = loc.FindTranslatedObject<Texture>(Localize.MainTranslation);

			mesh.material.mainTexture = texture;
		}
	}

Hope that helps,
Frank

You can localize Prefabs, if that's what you are referring.
In the Standard Component Example Scene, there is a mesh that is localized (in one language it shows a Sphere, in other it shows a cube, etc).

Hope that helps,

I actually want to localize the material of a mesh renderer.
Would be nice if the Localize script could select the MeshRenderer as target and then select a Material OR Texture term
