ObjectMeshStatic Class

Enums

LIGHTMAP_QUALITY#

Lightmap baking quality preset to be used.
NameDescription
GLOBAL = 0Global quality preset set in the Bake Lighting settings.
DRAFT = 1Draft quality preset for lightmaps.
LOW = 2Low quality preset for lightmaps.
MEDIUM = 3Medium quality preset for lightmaps.
HIGH = 4High quality preset for lightmaps.
ULTRA = 5Ultra quality preset for lightmaps.

LIGHTMAP_MODE#

Lightmap mode defining the source of lightmap texture to be used.
NameDescription
UNIQUE = 0Bake a unique lightmap texture for the surface.
CUSTOM = 1Use a custom lightmap texture for the surface.
SURFACE = 2Reuse an already baked lightmap texture from another surface. Can be used for LODs.

SURFACE_CUSTOM_TEXTURE_MODE#

Mode defining the source of surface custom texture to be used.
NameDescription
UNIQUE = 0Use a unique custom texture for the surface.
SURFACE = 1Use the custom texture from another surface. This option is intended for use with LODs having the same UV maps.

Properties

string MeshPath#

The path to the source .mesh-file used for the object.

bool IsMeshLoadedVRAM#

The value indicating if the source mesh used for the object is loaded to video memory (VRAM).

bool IsMeshLoadedRAM#

The value indicating if the source mesh used for the object is loaded to memory (RAM).

bool IsMeshNull#

The value indicating if the source mesh used for the object is null (does not exist, unassigned, not loaded, etc.).

bool MeshProceduralMode#

The value indicating if the source mesh used for the object is procedural. A procedural mesh is a mesh created via code, such meshes have a specific streaming mode - they are always kept in memory after creation and never unloaded until the object is destroyed via code or the mesh returns to its normal mode (streaming from a source file). Changing of the static mesh is possible only if it is in the procedural mode.
