Class Model

constructor

• new Model(): Model

• Creates a new model.

  Returns Model

  Example

  // Create a new model
  const model = new pc.Model();
  Copy

graph

meshInstances

morphInstances

skinInstances

clone

• clone(): Model

• Clones a model. The returned model has a newly created hierarchy and mesh instances, but meshes are shared between the clone and the specified model.

  Returns Model

  A clone of the specified model.

  Example

  const clonedModel = model.clone();
  Copy

destroy

• destroy(): void

• Destroys skinning texture and possibly deletes vertex/index buffers of a model. Mesh is reference-counted, so buffers are only deleted if all models with referencing mesh instances were deleted. That means all in-scene models + the "base" one (asset.resource) which is created when the model is parsed. It is recommended to use asset.unload() instead, which will also remove the model from the scene.

  Returns void

generateWireframe

• generateWireframe(): void

• Generates the necessary internal data for a model to be renderable as wireframe. Once this function has been called, any mesh instance in the model can have its renderStyle property set to RENDERSTYLE_WIREFRAME.

  Returns void

  Example

  model.generateWireframe();
  for (let i = 0; i < model.meshInstances.length; i++) {
      model.meshInstances[i].renderStyle = pc.RENDERSTYLE_WIREFRAME;
  }
  Copy
