Microsoft Mesh toolkit Sample: Dart Room

  • Article

Gallery View

The Dart Room project (scene: DartRoom) contains a carefully designed scene that demonstrates the power of combining appealing visuals with the creative use of Mesh Physics features found in the Mesh toolkit. Feel free to inspect and modify the scene and play with it!.

In this project, you'll find:

  • Cups: Simple objects to pick up.
  • Tables: When grabbed, they try to align themselves with gravity.
  • Cupboards: These should feel heavy. They use physics constraints.
  • Reset buttons (red): Resets the transforms of a sub-scene.
  • Clock pendulums: Powered by a physics hinge and velocity field.
  • Darts: You can throw these in the camera direction. They're "sticky," so they'll stay attached to anything they hit.
  • Globe: The globe rotates, demonstrating a motored hinge. The globe also has a gravity field which influences small objects entering a spherical trigger volume. Drag some cups close to the globe and watch them rotate around it like satellites.

The Samples Overview page contains instructions on how to download the Mesh toolkit which contains this sample.

Warning about sample load time

The sample could take 15 minutes or slightly longer to load into Unity due to large asset sizes. If you need to, change your Sleep mode setting so that the computer doesn't go to sleep while the project is loading. If this happens, it could cause the project to not load properly.
