Graphics.DrawMeshInstancedIndirect

パラメーター

説明

Draws the same mesh multiple times using GPU instancing.

This function only works on platforms that support compute shaders.

Similar to Graphics.DrawMeshInstanced, this function draws many instances of the same mesh, but unlike that method, the arguments for how many instances to draw come from bufferWithArgs.

Use this function in situations where you want to draw the same mesh for a particular amount of times using an instanced shader. Meshes are not further culled by the view frustum or baked occluders, nor sorted for transparency or z efficiency.

Buffer with arguments, bufferWithArgs, has to have five integer numbers at given argsOffset offset: index count per instance, instance count, start index location, base vertex location, start instance location.

Unity only needs the submeshIndex argument if submeshes within the mesh have different topologies (e.g. Triangles and Lines). Otherwise, all the information about which submesh to draw comes from the bufferWithArgs argument.

Here is a script that can be used to draw many instances of the same mesh:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
    public int instanceCount = 100000;
    public Mesh instanceMesh;
    public Material instanceMaterial;
    public int subMeshIndex = 0;

    private int cachedInstanceCount = -1;
    private int cachedSubMeshIndex = -1;
    private ComputeBuffer positionBuffer;
    private ComputeBuffer argsBuffer;
    private uint[] args = new uint[5] { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 };

    void Start() {
        argsBuffer = new ComputeBuffer(1, args.Length * sizeof(uint), ComputeBufferType.IndirectArguments);
        UpdateBuffers();
    }

    void Update() {
        // Update starting position buffer
        if (cachedInstanceCount != instanceCount || cachedSubMeshIndex != subMeshIndex)
            UpdateBuffers();

        // Pad input
        if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") != 0.0f)
            instanceCount = (int)Mathf.Clamp(instanceCount + Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * 40000, 1.0f, 5000000.0f);

        // Render
        Graphics.DrawMeshInstancedIndirect(instanceMesh, subMeshIndex, instanceMaterial, new Bounds(Vector3.zero, new Vector3(100.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f)), argsBuffer);
    }

    void OnGUI() {
        GUI.Label(new Rect(265, 25, 200, 30), "Instance Count: " + instanceCount.ToString());
        instanceCount = (int)GUI.HorizontalSlider(new Rect(25, 20, 200, 30), (float)instanceCount, 1.0f, 5000000.0f);
    }

    void UpdateBuffers() {
        // Ensure submesh index is in range
        if (instanceMesh != null)
            subMeshIndex = Mathf.Clamp(subMeshIndex, 0, instanceMesh.subMeshCount - 1);

        // Positions
        if (positionBuffer != null)
            positionBuffer.Release();
        positionBuffer = new ComputeBuffer(instanceCount, 16);
        Vector4[] positions = new Vector4[instanceCount];
        for (int i = 0; i < instanceCount; i++) {
            float angle = Random.Range(0.0f, Mathf.PI * 2.0f);
            float distance = Random.Range(20.0f, 100.0f);
            float height = Random.Range(-2.0f, 2.0f);
            float size = Random.Range(0.05f, 0.25f);
            positions[i] = new Vector4(Mathf.Sin(angle) * distance, height, Mathf.Cos(angle) * distance, size);
        }
        positionBuffer.SetData(positions);
        instanceMaterial.SetBuffer("positionBuffer", positionBuffer);

        // Indirect args
        if (instanceMesh != null) {
            args[0] = (uint)instanceMesh.GetIndexCount(subMeshIndex);
            args[1] = (uint)instanceCount;
            args[2] = (uint)instanceMesh.GetIndexStart(subMeshIndex);
            args[3] = (uint)instanceMesh.GetBaseVertex(subMeshIndex);
        }
        else
        {
            args[0] = args[1] = args[2] = args[3] = 0;
        }
        argsBuffer.SetData(args);

        cachedInstanceCount = instanceCount;
        cachedSubMeshIndex = subMeshIndex;
    }

    void OnDisable() {
        if (positionBuffer != null)
            positionBuffer.Release();
        positionBuffer = null;

        if (argsBuffer != null)
            argsBuffer.Release();
        argsBuffer = null;
    }
}

Here is a surface shader that can be used with the example script above:

        #endif
        }

        half _Glossiness;
        half _Metallic;

        void surf (Input IN, inout SurfaceOutputStandard o) {
