Question by Jazzer008 · Sep 06, 2013 at 01:47 AM · shader collider vertex deformation sharedmesh

How do I update the collider mesh based on the shader vertex deformed mesh?

I'm deforming a plane mesh by adjusting vertex positions within a shader. How would I update the collider mesh vertex positions based upon the shader deformations.

I've already tried to grab the new mesh during runtime and feeding it to sharedMesh, but the mesh on the object is not actually deformed, of course, it's only visually displaced using the shader.

Ideas?

Short answer? You can't. Possibly rethink what you are really trying to do here- even if you could do this it would incur a massive performance overhead from submitting a new mesh to physics every frame.
