  1. MeshBaker is a tool for combining many meshes into one big mesh and creating texture atlases
  2. from all the textures used by the source meshes. OBJECTS TO BE COMBINED DO NOT NEED THE SAME
  3. MATERIAL OR EVEN THE SAME SHADER. Meshbaker will create empty textures and resize copies of
  4. textures if needed to build the atlases. Meshbaker does not touch the source assets
  5. (other than setting the read flag on textures). It bakes the source
  6. assets into new assets which can be used in your scene for high performance scene loading.
  7. QUICKSTART

  17. UPGRADING FROM THE EVALUATION VERSION
  18. To upgrade from the evaluation version, delete the MeshBaker folder from
  19. your project and import the full version.
  20. Note that after doing this you may have "Missing Script" errors on your Combined Material assets.
  21. These can be fixed by clicking on the circle with dot in it beside the "Missing Script" text in the
  22. inspector and choosing "MB2_TextureBakeResults" from the list of scripts.
