The excessive use of separate meshes in Unity can significantly affect performance. To mitigate this impact, it is possible to combine these meshes into a single mesh as long as they are part of a common kinematic group and are not moving independently.
Combining meshes is a powerful feature that can significantly improve performance in large models. This can result in up to 4 times faster performance. However, it is not recommended for smaller models.
The Performance Optimizer can be applied to any Gameobject, typically at the top level of the imported CAD data. All its child meshes are taken into account during the optimization process.
The optimizer considers whether a Gameobject is part of a Group and if that group is assigned to a Kinematic. For each "Kinematic Group," a single optimized mesh is generated and named after the group. The optimized mesh is automatically set as non-Static.
If a Gameobject is part of a group that is not used in a Kinematic and the "Combine Non-Kinematic Groups" option is turned on, a separate optimized mesh is generated. This mesh is set as Static.
Optimization is initiated by clicking the Optimize button. The combined meshes resulting from the optimization process can be found as children of the OptimizedMeshes Gameobject.
Please note that after optimization, the original meshes are deactivated but the corresponding Gameobjects remain in the hierarchy. All previously defined colliders will remain active. The optimization process can be undone by clicking the Undo Optimize button.
This property indicates whether the meshes have been optimized or not.
This property provides the number of meshes that have been optimized as a result of the optimization process.
This property provides the number of meshes that have not been optimized.
This property allows you to specify the groups that should be ignored during the optimization process. By default, all groups are considered during the optimization process.
This property allows you to ignore hidden objects during the optimization process. By default, hidden objects are considered during the optimization process. If Hidden Objects are ignored, they are not part of the resulting combined mesh.
This property allows you to combine the meshes of groups that are not assigned to a Kinematic. By default, only the meshes of groups assigned to a Kinematic are combined.
In this list you can define groups which should be totally ignored and not be part of the combined mesh. These Groups remain fully active inside the structure.
