Vertex Color Tag

The vertex color tag extends the vertices of the polygon object with a color attribute. That allows you to paint colors directly on the mesh without the need of a texture. This functionality is mainly used by game developers who use vertex colors to achieve certain vertex shader effects. For example vertex colors can be interpreted as weights which control how much a grass blade is swaying in the wind.

To paint vertex colors please use the color brush of the Brush tool.

Attention

  • The vertex color tag can be only attached to editable polygon objects.
  • You can only have one vertex color tag per polygon object.
  • Vertex colors are just visible in the 3D view if the vertex color tag is selected.
