nameID
is faster. If you are adding properties with the same name repeatedly,
use Shader.PropertyToID to get unique identifier for the name, and pass the identifier to AddColor.// Draws 3 meshes with the same material but with different colors. // Using the material tag ID. var aMesh : Mesh; var aMaterial : Material = new Material(Shader.Find("VertexLit")); function Update() { var materialProperty : MaterialPropertyBlock = new MaterialPropertyBlock(); var tagID : int = Shader.PropertyToID("_Color"); // red mesh materialProperty.Clear(); materialProperty.AddVector(tagID,Color.red); Graphics.DrawMesh(aMesh, Vector3(0,0,0), Quaternion.identity, aMaterial, 0, null, 0, materialProperty); // green mesh materialProperty.Clear(); materialProperty.AddVector(tagID,Color.green); Graphics.DrawMesh(aMesh, Vector3(5,0,0), Quaternion.identity, aMaterial, 0, null, 0, materialProperty); // blue mesh materialProperty.Clear(); materialProperty.AddVector(tagID, Color.blue); Graphics.DrawMesh(aMesh, Vector3(-5,0,0), Quaternion.identity, aMaterial, 0, null, 0, materialProperty); }
