Unity Engine

Hi! It seems that there is an issue when using this asset with pre-Beta 5. It’s worked fine in previous versions of Unity.

Here is the error message as reported to me by an asset user. . .

Assets/TOTALLY COSMIC_ANIMATED PANEL DISPLAY PACK/_Standard Assets/Scripts/Utility Scripts/MeshCombineUtility.cs(27,74): error CS1061: Type UnityEngine.Mesh' does not contain a definition for GetTriangleStrip’ and no extension method GetTriangleStrip' of type UnityEngine.Mesh’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Assets/TOTALLY COSMIC_ANIMATED PANEL DISPLAY PACK/_Standard Assets/Scripts/Utility Scripts/MeshCombineUtility.cs(130,73): error CS1061: Type UnityEngine.Mesh' does not contain a definition for GetTriangleStrip’ and no extension method GetTriangleStrip' of type UnityEngine.Mesh’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Assets/TOTALLY COSMIC_ANIMATED PANEL DISPLAY PACK/_Standard Assets/Scripts/Utility Scripts/MeshCombineUtility.cs(177,30): error CS1061: Type UnityEngine.Mesh' does not contain a definition for SetTriangleStrip’ and no extension method SetTriangleStrip' of type UnityEngine.Mesh’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Any idea what may be causing the issue? -paul

maybe some namespacing changed in unity 5?

post the file MeshCombineUtility.cs. Or open that script in your IDE, find the error, and try to “Resolve” the namespacing error. Find one of the methods that it can’t resolve (GetTriangleStrip, SetTriangleStrip), right click it, and check if there is a “Resolve” option that can find the namespace. That’ll add the correct “using” statement at the top of the script and it should resolve the namespacing issue… if thats the only issue then it should work

I believe GetTriangleStrip/SetTriangleStrip was ‘obsolete’ in Unity 4 and when compiled the source spat out a warning suggesting using GetTriangles/SetStriangles on Mesh. I’d suspect that for Unity 5 the obsolete functions have now been removed. I haven’t confirmed this.
