ImmediateMesh

Inherits: Mesh < Resource < RefCounted < Object

Mesh optimized for creating geometry manually.

Description

A mesh type optimized for creating geometry manually, similar to OpenGL 1.x immediate mode.

Here’s a sample on how to generate a triangular face:

GDScriptC#

  1. var mesh = ImmediateMesh.new()
  2. mesh.surface_begin(Mesh.PRIMITIVE_TRIANGLES)
  3. mesh.surface_add_vertex(Vector3.LEFT)
  4. mesh.surface_add_vertex(Vector3.FORWARD)
  5. mesh.surface_add_vertex(Vector3.ZERO)
  6. mesh.surface_end()
  1. var mesh = new ImmediateMesh();
  2. mesh.SurfaceBegin(Mesh.PrimitiveType.Triangles);
  3. mesh.SurfaceAddVertex(Vector3.Left);
  4. mesh.SurfaceAddVertex(Vector3.Forward);
  5. mesh.SurfaceAddVertex(Vector3.Zero);
  6. mesh.SurfaceEnd();

Note: Generating complex geometries with ImmediateMesh is highly inefficient. Instead, it is designed to generate simple geometry that changes often.

Method Descriptions

void clear_surfaces ( )

Clear all surfaces.


void surface_add_vertex ( Vector3 vertex )

Add a 3D vertex using the current attributes previously set.


void surface_add_vertex_2d ( Vector2 vertex )

Add a 2D vertex using the current attributes previously set.


void surface_begin ( PrimitiveType primitive, Material material=null )

Begin a new surface.


void surface_end ( )

End and commit current surface. Note that surface being created will not be visible until this function is called.


void surface_set_color ( Color color )

Set the color attribute that will be pushed with the next vertex.


void surface_set_normal ( Vector3 normal )

Set the normal attribute that will be pushed with the next vertex.


void surface_set_tangent ( Plane tangent )

Set the tangent attribute that will be pushed with the next vertex.


void surface_set_uv ( Vector2 uv )

Set the UV attribute that will be pushed with the next vertex.


void surface_set_uv2 ( Vector2 uv2 )

Set the UV2 attribute that will be pushed with the next vertex.
