Create a Mesh Object

Language:

This example shows how to create a Mesh object.

In the following C# code example, device is assumed to be the rendering Device.

          [C#]
          
int numberVerts = 8; short[] indices = { 0,1,2, // Front Face 1,3,2, // Front Face 4,5,6, // Back Face 6,5,7, // Back Face 0,5,4, // Top Face 0,2,5, // Top Face 1,6,7, // Bottom Face 1,7,3, // Bottom Face 0,6,1, // Left Face 4,6,0, // Left Face 2,3,7, // Right Face 5,2,7 // Right Face }; Mesh mesh = new Mesh(numberVerts * 3, numberVerts, MeshFlags.Managed, CustomVertex.PositionColored.Format, device); using(VertexBuffer vb = mesh.VertexBuffer) { GraphicsStream data = vb.Lock(0, 0, LockFlags.None); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(-1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(-1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(-1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(-1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); data.Write(new CustomVertex.PositionColored(1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f, 0x00ff00ff)); vb.Unlock(); } using (IndexBuffer ib = mesh.IndexBuffer) { ib.SetData(indices, 0, LockFlags.None); }
