int

Type

Description

uintThe offset applied to all vertex indices of this sub-mesh.

Remarks

The base vertex can be used to achieve meshes that are larger than 65535 vertices while using 16 bit index buffers, as long as each sub-mesh fits within its own 65535 vertex area. Alternatively, 32 bit index buffers can be used via Mesh.indexFormat.
