class
OcclusionMeshSettings
Settings for occlusion meshes
Properties
Property | Description |
CameraSelectionSetId | The camera selection set id. This determines the selection set used for the cameras for when UseCameras is on. A value of -1 uses all cameras in the scene. |
CameraSelectionSetName | The camera selection set name. This determines the selection set used for the cameras for when UseCameras is on. If set to null, all cameras in the scene will be used. If both selection set name and ID are set, the name will be used. |
InvertOutputMesh | Flips the winding of the triangles of the output, making frontfaces backfaces and vice versa. Good for conservative z testing. |
Name | The name of the OcclusionMeshSettings object. (Inherited from Object) |
OcclusionMode | The occlusion mode. This decides if the processor generates an occluder (which is smaller than the original mesh), an occludee (which is larger), or an output that just tries to match the input. |
OnScreenErrorTolerance | The OnScreenErrorTolerance determines how large of an error that is tolerated, in pixels. Valid range is 1-50. Since this setting is based around the absolute worst-case scenario, you can usually get good results at relatively high tolerances. |
OnScreenSize | The onscreen size (px) of the output utility mesh. This will determine triangle count and quality. |
TransferSkinning | Sets whether to transfer the bone weights and bone ids to the new geometry. |
UseCameras | If set, cameras from the input scene will be used to define what angles the occlusion mesh can be visible from, and optimize the output mesh accordingly. Otherwise, the occlusion mesh will be assumed to be viewable from all directions. |
