Unigine.ObjectMeshCluster Class
| Inherits from: | Object |
A MeshCluster class allows you to bake identical meshes (with the same material applied to their surfaces) into one object, which provides less cluttered spatial tree, reduces the number of texture fetches and speeds up rendering.
Meshes are rendered within a specified visibility distance from the camera. When moving away from this distance, meshes fade out and then disappear completely.

ObjectMeshCluster Class
Properties
int NumMeshes#
The total number of meshes handled by the mesh cluster.
float FadeDistance#
The distance up to which meshes handled by the mesh cluster will be fading out. the default is 0.
float VisibleDistance#
The distance up to which meshes handled by the mesh cluster are rendered. the default is infinity (in this case, fade distance is ignored).
string MeshName#
The name of the mesh handled by a mesh cluster.
Members
ObjectMeshCluster ( string path, bool unique = false ) #
ObjectMeshCluster constructor.Arguments
- string path - Name of the mesh file.
- bool unique - When you create several objects out of a single .mesh file, the instance of the mesh geometry is created. If you then change the source geometry, its instances will be changed as well. To avoid this, set the unique flag to true (1), so a copy of the mesh geometry will be created and changes won't be applied.
int SetMesh ( Mesh mesh ) #
Copies the source mesh into the current mesh.Arguments
- Mesh mesh - Source mesh to be copied.
Return value
1 if the mesh is copied successfully; otherwise, 0.int GetMesh ( Mesh mesh ) #
Copies the current mesh into the target mesh.Arguments
- Mesh mesh - Target mesh.
Return value
1 if the mesh is copied successfully; otherwise, 0.void SetMeshNameForce ( string name ) #
Sets a new path to the mesh handled by the mesh cluster and forces mesh creation using the new path. The new mesh is created from the specified path immediately with the unique flag set to 0.Arguments
- string name - Path to the mesh file.
int AddMeshTransform ( ) #
Adds a new mesh instance transformation to the cluster. To set the new added transformation pass the return value of this method to the setMeshTransform() method.Return value
Number of the last added mesh instance.void SetMeshTransform ( int num, mat4 transform ) #
Sets the transformation for the given mesh instance.Arguments
- int num - Mesh instance number.
- mat4 transform - Mesh transformation matrix.
mat4 GetMeshTransform ( int num ) #
Returns the transformation of the given mesh instance.Arguments
- int num - Mesh instance number.
Return value
Mesh transformation matrix.void RemoveMeshTransform ( int num ) #
Removes the transformation of the specified mesh instance from the cluster.Arguments
- int num - Mesh instance number.
void RemoveMeshTransformFast ( int num ) #
Removes the transformation of the specified mesh instance from the cluster.Arguments
- int num - Mesh instance number.
void UpdateSpatialTree ( ) #
Updates the spatial tree of the mesh cluster. Spatial tree is updated in the next frame, this method can be used to update the tree immediately.int GetNumSurfaceTargets ( int surface ) #
Returns the total number of surface targets.Arguments
- int surface - Surface number.
Return value
Total number of surface targets.string GetSurfaceTargetName ( int surface, int target ) #
Returns the name of a given surface target.Arguments
- int surface - Surface number.
- int target - Target number.
Return value
Target name.void ClearMeshes ( ) #
Deletes all meshes currently baked into mesh cluster.bool CreateMesh ( string path, bool unique = 0 ) #
Creates a mesh.Arguments
- string path - Mesh name.
- bool unique - When you create several objects out of a single .mesh file, the instance of the mesh geometry is created. If you then change the source geometry, its instances will be changed as well. To avoid this, set the unique flag to 1, so a copy of the mesh geometry will be created and changes won't be applied.
Return value
true if the mesh is created successfully; otherwise, false.void CreateMeshes ( mat4[] transforms ) #
Creates meshes is accordance with the transformations vector (world coordinates) and bakes them into the cluster. All baked meshes are identical to the source mesh and have the same material applied to their surfaces.Arguments

Searches for a surface target with a given name.Arguments

Return value
Target number if it exists; otherwise, -1.void FlushMesh ( ) #
Flushes the mesh geometry into the video memory.bool LoadMesh ( string path ) #
Loads the mesh for the current mesh from the .mesh file. This function doesn't change the mesh name.Arguments
