Polaris Mini is a lightweight tool to convert your existing terrains to optimized mesh prefab which will greatly improve your game performance, especially on low end platforms.
Render pipeline compatibility
The Built-in Render Pipeline is Unity’s default render pipeline. It is a general-purpose render pipeline that has limited options for customization. The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that is quick and easy to customize, and lets you create optimized graphics across a wide range of platforms. The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that lets you create cutting-edge, high-fidelity graphics on high-end platforms.

Technical details

KEY FEATURES

  • Export terrain as mesh prefab: All components needed (Renderer, Material, Collider, LOD, etc) are already setup, just drag and drop the prefab to the scene.
  • Adaptive mesh: The mesh can adapt to the height map complexity, less polygon at plain areas, more polygon at rough areas. A huge save to vertex memory.
  • Mesh splitting: The terrain will be cut into several smaller chunks to get around the 65k vertex limit.
  • Up to 4 LODs: Seamless transition between LOD, no gap!
  • XZ displacement: Offset the vertex on XZ plane to break the uniform look.
  • Holes support: Cut the polygons away for the hole, add more polygon to emphasize the hole edge. No need to setup triggers for hole interaction.
  • Hard/smooth normals: Cover both low poly & stylized shading style.
  • Merge UV: Collapse the polygon's UV for sharp color.
  • 2 material variants: Use splat textures (4 layers without normal maps) or use albedo/metallic map.
  • Runtime conversion: Convert terrain at runtime using the TerrainToMeshConverter class.

*Tree & detail export is NOT supported at the moment.
