Struct Mesh

pub struct Mesh {
    pub asset_usage: RenderAssetUsages,
    /* private fields */
}

A 3D object made out of vertices representing triangles, lines, or points, with “attribute” values for each vertex.

Meshes can be automatically generated by a bevy AssetLoader (generally by loading a Gltf file), or by converting a primitive using into. It is also possible to create one manually. They can be edited after creation.

Meshes can be rendered with a Mesh2d and MeshMaterial2d or Mesh3d and MeshMaterial3d for 2D and 3D respectively.

A Mesh in Bevy is equivalent to a “primitive” in the glTF format, for a glTF Mesh representation, see GltfMesh.

Manual creation

The following function will construct a flat mesh, to be rendered with a StandardMaterial or ColorMaterial:

fn create_simple_parallelogram() -> Mesh {
    // Create a new mesh using a triangle list topology, where each set of 3 vertices composes a triangle.
    Mesh::new(PrimitiveTopology::TriangleList, RenderAssetUsages::default())
        // Add 4 vertices, each with its own position attribute (coordinate in
        // 3D space), for each of the corners of the parallelogram.
        .with_inserted_attribute(
            Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION,
            vec![[0.0, 0.0, 0.0], [1.0, 2.0, 0.0], [2.0, 2.0, 0.0], [1.0, 0.0, 0.0]]
        )
        // Assign a UV coordinate to each vertex.
        .with_inserted_attribute(
            Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_UV_0,
            vec![[0.0, 1.0], [0.5, 0.0], [1.0, 0.0], [0.5, 1.0]]
        )
        // Assign normals (everything points outwards)
        .with_inserted_attribute(
            Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
            vec![[0.0, 0.0, 1.0], [0.0, 0.0, 1.0], [0.0, 0.0, 1.0], [0.0, 0.0, 1.0]]
        )
        // After defining all the vertices and their attributes, build each triangle using the
        // indices of the vertices that make it up in a counter-clockwise order.
        .with_inserted_indices(Indices::U32(vec![
            // First triangle
            0, 3, 1,
            // Second triangle
            1, 3, 2
        ]))
}

You can see how it looks like here, used in a Mesh3d with a square bevy logo texture, with added axis, points, lines and text for clarity.

Other examples

For further visualization, explanation, and examples, see the built-in Bevy examples, and the implementation of the built-in shapes. In particular, generate_custom_mesh teaches you to access and modify the attributes of a Mesh after creating it.

Common points of confusion

• UV maps in Bevy start at the top-left, see ATTRIBUTE_UV_0, other APIs can have other conventions, OpenGL starts at bottom-left.
• It is possible and sometimes useful for multiple vertices to have the same position attribute value, it’s a common technique in 3D modeling for complex UV mapping or other calculations.
• Bevy performs frustum culling based on the Aabb of meshes, which is calculated and added automatically for new meshes only. If a mesh is modified, the entity’s Aabb needs to be updated manually or deleted so that it is re-calculated.

Use with StandardMaterial

To render correctly with StandardMaterial, a mesh needs to have properly defined:

• UVs: Bevy needs to know how to map a texture onto the mesh (also true for ColorMaterial).
• Normals: Bevy needs to know how light interacts with your mesh. [0.0, 0.0, 1.0] is very common for simple flat meshes on the XY plane, because simple meshes are smooth and they don’t require complex light calculations.
• Vertex winding order: by default, StandardMaterial.cull_mode is Some(Face::Back), which means that Bevy would only render the “front” of each triangle, which is the side of the triangle from where the vertices appear in a counter-clockwise order.

Implementations

impl Mesh

pub const ATTRIBUTE_POSITION: MeshVertexAttribute

Where the vertex is located in space. Use in conjunction with Mesh::insert_attribute or Mesh::with_inserted_attribute.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Float32x3.

pub const ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL: MeshVertexAttribute

The direction the vertex normal is facing in. Use in conjunction with Mesh::insert_attribute or Mesh::with_inserted_attribute.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Float32x3.

pub const ATTRIBUTE_UV_0: MeshVertexAttribute

Texture coordinates for the vertex. Use in conjunction with Mesh::insert_attribute or Mesh::with_inserted_attribute.

Generally [0.,0.] is mapped to the top left of the texture, and [1.,1.] to the bottom-right.

By default values outside will be clamped per pixel not for the vertex, “stretching” the borders of the texture. This behavior can be useful in some cases, usually when the borders have only one color, for example a logo, and you want to “extend” those borders.

For different mapping outside of 0..=1 range, see ImageAddressMode.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Float32x2.

pub const ATTRIBUTE_UV_1: MeshVertexAttribute

Alternate texture coordinates for the vertex. Use in conjunction with Mesh::insert_attribute or Mesh::with_inserted_attribute.

Typically, these are used for lightmaps, textures that provide precomputed illumination.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Float32x2.

pub const ATTRIBUTE_TANGENT: MeshVertexAttribute

The direction of the vertex tangent. Used for normal mapping. Usually generated with generate_tangents or with_generated_tangents.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Float32x4.

pub const ATTRIBUTE_COLOR: MeshVertexAttribute

Per vertex coloring. Use in conjunction with Mesh::insert_attribute or Mesh::with_inserted_attribute.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Float32x4.

pub const ATTRIBUTE_JOINT_WEIGHT: MeshVertexAttribute

Per vertex joint transform matrix weight. Use in conjunction with Mesh::insert_attribute or Mesh::with_inserted_attribute.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Float32x4.

pub const ATTRIBUTE_JOINT_INDEX: MeshVertexAttribute

Per vertex joint transform matrix index. Use in conjunction with Mesh::insert_attribute or Mesh::with_inserted_attribute.

The format of this attribute is VertexFormat::Uint16x4.

pub fn new( primitive_topology: PrimitiveTopology, asset_usage: RenderAssetUsages, ) -> Mesh

Construct a new mesh. You need to provide a PrimitiveTopology so that the renderer knows how to treat the vertex data. Most of the time this will be PrimitiveTopology::TriangleList.

pub fn with_inserted_attribute( self, attribute: MeshVertexAttribute, values: impl Into<VertexAttributeValues>, ) -> Mesh

Consumes the mesh and returns a mesh with data set for a vertex attribute (position, normal, etc.). The name will often be one of the associated constants such as Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION.

(Alternatively, you can use Mesh::insert_attribute to mutate an existing mesh in-place)

Aabb of entities with modified mesh are not updated automatically.

Panics

Panics when the format of the values does not match the attribute’s format.

pub fn indices(&self) -> Option<&Indices>

Retrieves the vertex indices of the mesh.

pub fn indices_mut(&mut self) -> Option<&mut Indices>

Retrieves the vertex indices of the mesh mutably.

pub fn remove_indices(&mut self) -> Option<Indices>

Removes the vertex indices from the mesh and returns them.

pub fn with_removed_indices(self) -> Mesh

Consumes the mesh and returns a mesh without the vertex indices of the mesh.

(Alternatively, you can use Mesh::remove_indices to mutate an existing mesh in-place)

pub fn get_vertex_size(&self) -> u64

Returns the size of a vertex in bytes.

pub fn get_vertex_buffer_size(&self) -> usize

Returns the size required for the vertex buffer in bytes.

pub fn get_index_buffer_bytes(&self) -> Option<&[u8]>

Computes and returns the index data of the mesh as bytes. This is used to transform the index data into a GPU friendly format.

pub fn get_mesh_vertex_buffer_layout( &self, mesh_vertex_buffer_layouts: &mut MeshVertexBufferLayouts, ) -> MeshVertexBufferLayoutRef

Get this Mesh’s MeshVertexBufferLayout, used in SpecializedMeshPipeline.

pub fn count_vertices(&self) -> usize

Counts all vertices of the mesh.

If the attributes have different vertex counts, the smallest is returned.

pub fn create_packed_vertex_buffer_data(&self) -> Vec<u8>

Computes and returns the vertex data of the mesh as bytes. Therefore the attributes are located in the order of their MeshVertexAttribute::id. This is used to transform the vertex data into a GPU friendly format.

If the vertex attributes have different lengths, they are all truncated to the length of the smallest.

This is a convenience method which allocates a Vec. Prefer pre-allocating and using Mesh::write_packed_vertex_buffer_data when possible.

pub fn write_packed_vertex_buffer_data(&self, slice: &mut [u8])

Computes and write the vertex data of the mesh into a mutable byte slice. The attributes are located in the order of their MeshVertexAttribute::id. This is used to transform the vertex data into a GPU friendly format.

If the vertex attributes have different lengths, they are all truncated to the length of the smallest.

pub fn duplicate_vertices(&mut self)

Duplicates the vertex attributes so that no vertices are shared.

This can dramatically increase the vertex count, so make sure this is what you want. Does nothing if no Indices are set.

pub fn with_duplicated_vertices(self) -> Mesh

Consumes the mesh and returns a mesh with no shared vertices.

This can dramatically increase the vertex count, so make sure this is what you want. Does nothing if no Indices are set.

(Alternatively, you can use Mesh::duplicate_vertices to mutate an existing mesh in-place)

pub fn invert_winding(&mut self) -> Result<(), MeshWindingInvertError>

Inverts the winding of the indices such that all counter-clockwise triangles are now clockwise and vice versa. For lines, their start and end indices are flipped.

Does nothing if no Indices are set. If this operation succeeded, an Ok result is returned.

pub fn with_inverted_winding(self) -> Result<Mesh, MeshWindingInvertError>

Consumes the mesh and returns a mesh with inverted winding of the indices such that all counter-clockwise triangles are now clockwise and vice versa.

Does nothing if no Indices are set.

pub fn compute_normals(&mut self)

Calculates the Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL of a mesh. If the mesh is indexed, this defaults to smooth normals. Otherwise, it defaults to flat normals.

Panics

Panics if Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION is not of type float3. Panics if the mesh has any other topology than PrimitiveTopology::TriangleList.

FIXME: This should handle more cases since this is called as a part of gltf mesh loading where we can’t really blame users for loading meshes that might not conform to the limitations here!

pub fn compute_flat_normals(&mut self)

Calculates the Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL of a mesh.

Panics

Panics if Indices are set or Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION is not of type float3. Panics if the mesh has any other topology than PrimitiveTopology::TriangleList. Consider calling Mesh::duplicate_vertices or exporting your mesh with normal attributes.

FIXME: This should handle more cases since this is called as a part of gltf mesh loading where we can’t really blame users for loading meshes that might not conform to the limitations here!

pub fn compute_smooth_normals(&mut self)

Calculates the Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL of an indexed mesh, smoothing normals for shared vertices.

Panics

Panics if Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION is not of type float3. Panics if the mesh has any other topology than PrimitiveTopology::TriangleList. Panics if the mesh does not have indices defined.
