参数

描述

使用 GPU 实例化多次绘制同一网格。

类似于 Graphics.DrawMeshInstanced，此函数用于绘制同一网格的多个实例，但与之不同的是，此函数中代表要绘制实例数的参数来自 /bufferWithArgs/。

如果您需要使用实例化的着色器多次绘制同一网格，则可以使用该函数。这些网格不会被视锥体或烘焙遮挡物做进一步的剔除处理，也不进行排序以提高透明度或 Z 效率。

带参数的缓冲区 bufferWithArgs 必须在给定的 argsOffset 偏移处具有五个整数： 每个实例的索引数、实例数、起始索引位置、基顶点位置、起始实例位置。

下面是一个可用于绘制同一网格的多个实例的脚本：

        if (instanceMesh != null)
            subMeshIndex = Mathf.Clamp(subMeshIndex, 0, instanceMesh.subMeshCount - 1);

            float angle = Random.Range(0.0f, Mathf.PI * 2.0f);
            float distance = Random.Range(20.0f, 100.0f);
            float height = Random.Range(-2.0f, 2.0f);
            float size = Random.Range(0.05f, 0.25f);
            positions[i] = new Vector4(Mathf.Sin(angle) * distance, height, Mathf.Cos(angle) * distance, size);
        }
        positionBuffer.SetData(positions);
        instanceMaterial.SetBuffer("positionBuffer", positionBuffer);

        // Indirect args
        if (instanceMesh != null) {
            args[0] = (uint)instanceMesh.GetIndexCount(subMeshIndex);

        }
        else
        {
            args[0] = args[1] = args[2] = args[3] = 0;
        }
        argsBuffer.SetData(args);

        cachedInstanceCount = instanceCount;
