Question

I need to manipulate the vertex of a skinned mesh, but not its sharedMesh (beacuse it remain deformed also when i stop the game). How i can do?

Copy the mesh on startup, so that you're operating on the clone instead:

void Start() {
  Mesh oldMesh = GetComponent<SkinnedMeshRenderer>().sharedMesh;
  Mesh newMesh = (Mesh)Object.Instantiate(oldMesh);
  GetComponent<SkinnedMeshRenderer>().sharedMesh = newMesh;
}

I used with javascript:

var newMesh : Mesh;

function Start() { var oldMesh = GetComponent("SkinnedMeshRenderer").sharedMesh; newMesh = oldMesh; GetComponent("SkinnedMeshRenderer").sharedMesh = newMesh; }

function Update () { var mesh : Mesh = GetComponent(SkinnedMeshRenderer ).sharedMesh; var vertices : Vector3[] = mesh.vertices;

for (var i = 0; i < vertices.Length; i++) vertices[i] += Vector3.up * Time.deltaTime/100;

mesh.vertices = vertices; mesh.RecalculateBounds(); }

But when i stop the game in the editor the skidder mesh dont return to its original... is permanent modified.

With Instantiate it works very well, thank you!
