Description

A class that allows creating or modifying meshes from scripts.

Meshes contain vertices and multiple triangle arrays. See the Procedural example project for examples of using the mesh interface.

The triangle arrays are simply indices into the vertex arrays; three indices for each triangle.

For every vertex there can be a normal, two texture coordinates, color and tangent. These are optional though and can be removed at will. All vertex information is stored in separate arrays of the same size, so if your mesh has 10 vertices, you would also have 10-size arrays for normals and other attributes.

There are probably 3 things you might want to use the modifyable mesh interface for:

1. Building a mesh from scratch: should always be done in the following order:
a) assign vertices
b) assign triangles.

var newVertices : Vector3[];
var newUV : Vector2[];
var newTriangles : int[];

function Start () { var mesh : Mesh = new Mesh (); GetComponent.<MeshFilter>().mesh = mesh; mesh.vertices = newVertices; mesh.uv = newUV; mesh.triangles = newTriangles; }
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour { public Vector3[] newVertices; public Vector2[] newUV; public int[] newTriangles; void Start() { Mesh mesh = new Mesh(); GetComponent<MeshFilter>().mesh = mesh; mesh.vertices = newVertices; mesh.uv = newUV; mesh.triangles = newTriangles; } }

2. Modifying vertex attributes every frame:
a) get vertices
b) modify them
c) assign them back to the mesh.

function Update () {
    var mesh : Mesh = GetComponent.<MeshFilter>().mesh;
    var vertices : Vector3[] = mesh.vertices;
    var normals : Vector3[] = mesh.normals;

for (var i = 0; i < vertices.Length; i++) vertices[i] += normals[i] * Mathf.Sin(Time.time);

mesh.vertices = vertices; }
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour { void Update() { Mesh mesh = GetComponent<MeshFilter>().mesh; Vector3[] vertices = mesh.vertices; Vector3[] normals = mesh.normals; int i = 0; while (i < vertices.Length) { vertices[i] += normals[i] * Mathf.Sin(Time.time); i++; } mesh.vertices = vertices; } }

3. Continously changing the mesh triangles and vertices:
a) call Clear to start fresh
b) assign vertices and other attributes
c) assign triangle indices.

It is important to call Clear before assigning new vertices or triangles. Unity always checks the supplied triangle indices whether they don't reference out of bounds vertices. Calling Clear then assigning vertices then triangles makes sure you never have out of bounds data.

#pragma strict
var newVertices: Vector3[];
var newUV: Vector2[];
var newTriangles: int[];
function Start() {
	var mesh: Mesh = GetComponent.<MeshFilter>().mesh;
	mesh.Clear();
	// Do some calculations...
	mesh.vertices = newVertices;
	mesh.uv = newUV;
	mesh.triangles = newTriangles;
}
using UnityEngine;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour { Vector3[] newVertices; Vector2[] newUV; int[] newTriangles;

void Start() { Mesh mesh = GetComponent<MeshFilter>().mesh;

mesh.Clear();

// Do some calculations... mesh.vertices = newVertices; mesh.uv = newUV; mesh.triangles = newTriangles; } }

Variables

blendShapeCountReturns BlendShape count on this mesh.
boneWeightsThe bone weights of each vertex.
boundsThe bounding volume of the mesh.
colorsVertex colors of the Mesh.
colors32Vertex colors of the Mesh.
isReadableReturns state of the Read/Write Enabled checkbox when model was imported.
normalsThe normals of the Mesh.
subMeshCountThe number of sub-Meshes. Every Material has a separate triangle list.

uvThe base texture coordinates of the Mesh.
uv2The second texture coordinate set of the mesh, if present.
uv3The third texture coordinate set of the mesh, if present.
uv4The fourth texture coordinate set of the mesh, if present.
vertexBufferCountGet the number of vertex buffers present in the Mesh. (Read Only)
vertexCountReturns the number of vertices in the Mesh (Read Only).
verticesReturns a copy of the vertex positions or assigns a new vertex positions array.
