Ability to Attach Custom Script and custom Material on Import

[deltamish]

Hey,

Loved the asset. I was wondering If theres a method to attach a script or a material when loading async.

and also if there's going to be any optimization done using Unity Job system in the up coming releases

Thanks

In ObjectImporter you have some events you can register on. From documentation:

• The CreatedModel event is triggered when a single model has been created and before it is imported.
• The ImportedModel event is triggered when a single model has been successfully imported.
• ImportingStart triggered when starting to import.
• ImportingComplete triggered when a single model has been successfully imported.
• ImportError triggered when an error occurred while importing a model. You can register to events before starting loading:

  ObjectImporter importer = GetComponent<ObjectImporter>();
  importer.CreatedModel += OnModelCreated;
  importer.ImportedModel += OnModelImported;
  importer.ImportError += OnModelError;
  //...

  The first two events can be handled by a delegate that accepts the main loaded GameObject and the absolute path:

// handle the ImportedModel event
protected void OnModelImported(GameObject loadedObj, string absolutePath)
{
// Here you can get the Renderer components in the object children and change or replace materials
  MeshRenderer[] meshRend = loadedObj.GetComponentsInChildren<MeshRenderer>();
  foreach (var rend in meshRend)
  {
    Material mtl = rend.material; // or rend.sharedMaterial to change the material itself
    //...
  }
}

@deltamish About your second question: unfortunately I never thought about it, I suggest to create a new issue, sharing your knowledge about Unity job system, maybe with references, so everyone can understand your proposal. I will mark it as enhancement (and I'll think about it...).

Hey Thanks a lot for the solution. Its even easier and faster this way than having a for loop and regularly check for Meshes .

and sure Ill create a new issue, But I have little knowledge on the topic
