Multi Vertex Color [SOLVED]

[T.P.Sparrow]

I have painted vertex colors into this cube from blender.



How can I change each piece of the square to a different color dynamically with vertex color?

I am getting terrible results and cannot figure out how to get a solid color per face.



How would this be done using Playmaker or a custom action?

Thanks!

As far as I know you can't get a solid color per face with vertex colors, at least not if you want the neighbor face to be a different solid color, because they share the vertices you want to color.

Thanks for the replay!

Yes, that is the issue I am trying to reconcile. You are able to get a solid color per side if you only have 2 triangles per side.

However, I want to have 4 or more sections on each side of the cube.

Is there anyways I can do this without building a prefab made up of x number of smaller cubes? Or is this really not that bad?

Thanks!

Hi,

 You'll need to work with proper textures here, OR split your mesh into smaller chunk each representing a portion of your global shape and then they are treated as really separate mesh with each it own shader and therefore all will be very sharp.

Sine this game might go on mobile, what is the best way to keep it optimized?

I could have 300+ of these cubes in a single level (their walls).

I need their colors to be dynamically set because the walls closer to the end of the level will be more red and the walls further away more blue.

I guess the question is:

Would it really be that bad if I have 10+ smaller cubes per wall and maybe 300 or 400 walls per level since they all still would be in the same drawcall?

Thanks!

Hi,

 I am not too sure actually. I think this would need to be tested.

 however I think that studying texturing painting would be appropriate here,

Yes, I don't see any other way, thanks for your time!
