Having problems with adding colour to my Cube

Hi,

I am trying to add colour to a cube but not able to do that.

Here is my code

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. GameObject cube = GameObject.CreatePrimitive (PrimitiveType.Cube);
3.             cube.transform.localScale=new Vector3(0.75f,0.75f,0);
4.             cube.AddComponent<Rigidbody> ();
5.             cube.transform.position = new Vector3 (1, 1,0);
6.             cube.tag="TestTag";
7.             cube.renderer.material.color=Color.white;
8.  

But the cube is rendered in black colour.

Thanks,
Kumar.

 

Fixed the issue by adding Material with a shader.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. MeshRenderer gameObjectRenderer=cube.GetComponent<MeshRenderer>();
3.             var shader=Shader.Find("Sprites/Diffuse");
4.             if(shader!=null){
5.                 var material=new Material(Shader.Find("Sprites/Diffuse"));
6.             material.color=Color.white;
7.             cube.renderer.material=material;
8.             }
9.  

 

Do you have lights in the scene that are failing to illuminate it?
