<function name="Mesh" parent="Global" type="libraryfunc"> <description>Returns a new mesh object.</description> <realm>Client</realm> <args> <arg name="mat" type="IMaterial" default="nil">The material the mesh is intended to be rendered with. It's merely a hint that tells that mesh what vertex format it should use.</arg> </args> <rets> <ret name="" type="IMesh">The created object.</ret> </rets> </function> ⤶ <note> This function does not work with "WorldVertexTransition" materials, UnlitGeneric works, however VertexLitGeneric suffers shading issues as well.</note>⤶ <example> <description>Draws a triangle near Vector( 0, 0, 0 ) in the map.</description> <code> local mat = Material( "editor/wireframe" ) -- The material (a wireframe) local obj = Mesh() -- Create the IMesh object local verts = { -- A table of 3 vertices that form a triangle { pos = Vector( 0, 0, 0 ), u = 0, v = 0 }, -- Vertex 1 { pos = Vector( 10, 0, 0 ), u = 1, v = 0 }, -- Vertex 2 { pos = Vector( 10, 10, 0 ), u = 1, v = 1 }, -- Vertex 3 } obj:BuildFromTriangles( verts ) -- Load the vertices into the IMesh object hook.Add( "PostDrawOpaqueRenderables", "IMeshTest", function() render.SetMaterial( mat ) -- Apply the material obj:Draw() -- Draw the mesh end ) </code> </example>
