Mesh.GetAllBoneWeights

Returns

NativeArray<BoneWeight1> Returns all non-zero bone weights for the Mesh, in vertex index order.

Description

Gets the bone weights for the Mesh.

Use Mesh.GetBonesPerVertex to get the number of non-zero weights for each vertex, and then use that to iterate over this data.

For each vertex, the BoneWeight1 structs are sorted by BoneWeight1.weight, in descending order.
