[SOLVED][CLOSED]Procedurally generated Capsule

Does anyone have a script that creates a procedurally generated capsule, where I can control its height and radius?

Please do not suggest this http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/PrimitiveType.Capsule.html because it doesn't allow me to control it's height and radius. (Unless it does allow me and I don't know about it, In that case, please do suggest that and point out how I can control those parameters).

 

only by altering the xyz scale parameters on the transform

 

Yes I've already tried that and it stretches out the capsule, and that does not work for me. That is why I requested a procedural capsule. This page has some primitieves but unfortunatly, not the one I need :S

why not create one from 3d software, a capsule with 2 bones for each end. you can change the radius by scaling the bones and change the height by changing the bones local position...

 

Never worked with bones before but sounds interesting. Thanks

 

in unity terms "bones" are just gameobjects (empties I think), the fun stuff is how the SkinnedMeshRenderer manipulate the vertex points in relation to those bones.

 

Just because I like playing around with meshes and stuff in code, see attached script.

Attach to an empty gameObject, it automatically adds the MeshFilter and MeshRenderer components. Right-Click on the script and there will be an option in the drop-down menu "Generate Procedural Capsule". If you change any values in the inspector, right-click script and select this again to refresh.

TODO:
Custom Editor to refresh mesh in real time.
Add calculating tangents ( solution here )
Save mesh asset ( possible solution here )

 

That is realy cool man!
Works great! Thanks

 

I'm stealing this because I dont want bother with trigonometry and vector math. However, your mesh generation code has issue as Drawmesh API complains about indexes being OOB.

 

I have a capsule maker in my MakeGeo project... look for the

testmakeuvcapsule

scene.

MakeGeo is presently hosted at these locations:

And it ain't gotst no OOB stuff goin' on either.
