Check Out This Unity Tool for Creating Meshes Along Splines
Spline Mesher Pro from Staggart Creations makes it easy to create pipes, fences, paths, and more.
Take a look at Spline Mesher Pro from Staggart Creations, a toolkit that expands the capabilities of Unity's native spline system.
The tool allows you to easily create, bend, and repeat meshes along splines, making it especially useful for building lengthy objects with complex shapes, such as fences, pipes, and paths, without the need to use external modeling software.
Spline Mesher Pro includes advanced features, such as vertex color control (for shaders), prefab end caps, snapping to colliders, and multi-material support.
The tool comprises two workflows with the Curve Mesher component and the Fill Mesher component.
The Curve Mesher component can create a mesh that is continuously repeated and deformed along its curves; you only need to provide the component with a spline and an input mesh, choosing from a procedural Cube, Cylinder, or Plane input mesh, or any custom mesh.
The Fill Mesher component lets you create a mesh from a spline's contour with a uniform topology and distance field baked right into the UV.
Learn about the workflow's features in more detail:
Curve Mesh:
• Use a procedural Cube, Cylinder, or Plane input mesh, along with any custom mesh
• Automatic box/tube/plane/custom collider generation
• Snapping/conforming to colliders
• UV scale, offset, rotation, and stretch control
• Start and end prefab attachments
• Rotation roll angle with per-point adjustments, twist a mesh around the spline
• Vertex color data over the spline, to drive shader-based effects
Fill Mesh:
• Uniform topology made out of equilateral triangles
• Margin parameter, expand or indent the shape from the curve
• Snapping vertices to linear knots, which ensures precise shapes
• Not limited to a flat mesh, edges follow the spline curvature
• Displacement effects: bulging and noise-based
• UV scale, offset, flipping, rotation, and fitting
• Distance to spline (SDF) baked into UV and Vertex Colors.
The package also includes practical examples that you can use for studying.
