Description

AssetPostprocessor lets you hook into the import pipeline and run scripts prior or after importing assets.

During model import the functions are called in the the following order:
- OnPreprocessModel is called at the very beginning and you can override ModelImporter settings that are used for the whole model import process.
- After Meshes and Materials are imported, the GameObjects hierarchy is created from the imported nodes. Use OnPostprocessMeshHierarchy to change the hierarchy. Every GameObject that represents an imported node is given a corresponding MeshFilter, MeshRenderer, and MeshCollider component. Before assigning a Material to the MeshRenderer, the OnAssignMaterialModel function is invoked.
- After GameObject has initialized MeshRenderers and "userdata" exists OnPostprocessGameObjectWithUserProperties is called. That happens before children GameObjects are generated.
- If animation generation was not disabled at previous stages (see ModelImporter.generateAnimations), then SkinnedMesh and Animations are generated. If possible Avatar is also created and GameObjecs hierarchy is optimized. After that OnPostprocessModel is called for the root GameObject.

OnPreprocessSpeedTree and OnPostprocessSpeedTree are called on SpeedTree assets (.spm file) the same way as OnPreprocessModel and OnPostprocessModel, except that the assetImporter type is SpeedTreeImporter.

In a production pipeline AssetPostprocessors should always be placed in pre-built dll's in the project instead of in scripts. AssetPostprocessors change the output of imported assets, thus a compile error in one of the scripts will lead to assets being imported differently. This can be a severe issue when working in a production pipeline. By using dll's for AssetPostprocessors you ensure that they can always be executed even if the scripts have compile errors. This way you can override default values in the import settings or modify the imported data like textures or meshes.

OnPostprocessAssetbundleNameChangedHandler called when asset is assigned to a different asset bundle.
OnPostprocessAudioAdd this function to a subclass to get a notification when an audio clip has completed importing.
OnPostprocessCubemapAdd this function to a subclass to get a notification just before a cubemap texture has completed importing.
OnPostprocessGameObjectWithAnimatedUserPropertiesThis function is called when the animation curves for a custom property are finished importing.
OnPostprocessGameObjectWithUserPropertiesGets called for each GameObject that had at least one user property attached to it in the imported file.
OnPostprocessMaterialAdd this function to a subclass to get a notification when a Material asset has completed importing.
OnPostprocessMeshHierarchyThis function is called when a new transform hierarchy has finished importing.
