TextureSwapper - Unity / UniSWF Texture Manager Plugin

The TextureSwapper plugin creates a platform to swap, manage, and change segments of textures in Unity's runtime within a texture sheet. I developed this plugin to modify segments of a model created with UniSWF in real-time in a performant way. Still, the TextureSwapper plugin can adapt to any use case involving textures.

If your use case requires you to swap segments of a texture in real-time, this is the tool for you.
