> Loads all assets in a folder or file at path in a Resources folder.

## Definition

* **Type:** Method
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.CoreModule

## LoadAll(string, Type)

Loads all assets in a folder or file at path in a Resources folder.

```csharp
public static Object[] LoadAll(string path, Type systemTypeInstance)
```

### Parameters

**** (\[string]\(https\://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)): Pathname of the target folder. When using the empty string (i.e., ""), the function will load the entire contents of the Resources folder.**** (\[Type]\(https\://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.type)): Type filter for objects returned.

### Returns

| Type                                                                | Description |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------- |
| [Object\[\]](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/object.md) |             |

### Remarks

If path refers to a folder, all assets in the folder will be returned. If path refers to a file, only that asset will be returned. The path is relative to any Resources folder inside the Assets folder of your project.

**Note:** All asset names and paths in Unity use forward slashes. Paths using backslashes will **not** work.

### Examples

```csharp
// Loads all assets in the "Resources/Textures" folder
// Then picks a random one from the list.
// Note: Random.Range in this case returns [low,high]
// range, i.e. the high value is not included in the range.
using UnityEngine;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    private Object[] textures;
    private GameObject go;

    void Start()
    {
        textures = Resources.LoadAll("Textures", typeof(Texture2D));

        foreach (var t in textures)
        {
            Debug.Log(t.name);
        }

        go = GameObject.CreatePrimitive(PrimitiveType.Cube);
    }

    void OnGUI()
    {
        if (GUI.Button(new Rect(10, 70, 150, 30), "Change texture"))
        {
            // change texture on cube
            Texture2D texture = (Texture2D)textures[Random.Range(0, textures.Length)];
            go.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTexture = texture;
        }
    }
}
```

## LoadAll(string)

Loads all assets in a folder or file at path in a Resources folder.

```csharp
public static Object[] LoadAll(string path)
```

### Parameters

**** (\[string]\(https\://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)): Pathname of the target folder. When using the empty string (i.e., ""), the function will load the entire contents of the Resources folder.

### Returns

| Type                                                                | Description |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------- |
| [Object\[\]](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/object.md) |             |

### Remarks

If path refers to a folder, all assets in the folder will be returned. If path refers to a file, only that asset will be returned. The path is relative to any Resources folder inside the Assets folder of your project.

**Note:** All asset names and paths in Unity use forward slashes. Paths using backslashes will **not** work.

### Examples

```csharp
// Loads all assets in the "Resources/Textures" folder
// Then picks a random one from the list.
// Note: Random.Range in this case returns [low,high]
// range, i.e. the high value is not included in the range.
using UnityEngine;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    private Object[] textures;
    private GameObject go;

    void Start()
    {
        textures = Resources.LoadAll("Textures", typeof(Texture2D));

        foreach (var t in textures)
        {
            Debug.Log(t.name);
        }

        go = GameObject.CreatePrimitive(PrimitiveType.Cube);
    }

    void OnGUI()
    {
        if (GUI.Button(new Rect(10, 70, 150, 30), "Change texture"))
        {
            // change texture on cube
            Texture2D texture = (Texture2D)textures[Random.Range(0, textures.Length)];
            go.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTexture = texture;
        }
    }
}
```

## LoadAll\<T>(string)

Loads all assets in a folder or file at path in a Resources folder.

```csharp
public static T[] LoadAll<T>(string path) where T : Object
```

### Parameters

**** (\[string]\(https\://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string)): Pathname of the target folder. When using the empty string (i.e., ""), the function will load the entire contents of the Resources folder.

### Returns

| Type              | Description |
| ----------------- | ----------- |
| [\<T>\[\]](./.md) |             |

### Remarks

If path refers to a folder, all assets in the folder will be returned. If path refers to a file, only that asset will be returned. Only objects of type T will be returned. The path is relative to any Resources folder inside the Assets folder of your project.

The script example below shows how [Resources.LoadAll](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/resources/loadall.md) can be used with Linq.

### Examples

```csharp
// Loads all assets in the "Resources/Textures" folder
// using Linq.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Linq;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    void Start()
    {
        var textures = Resources.LoadAll("Textures", typeof(Texture2D)).Cast<Texture2D>().ToArray();
        foreach (var t in textures)
            Debug.Log(t.name);
    }
}
```
