NOTE: Performance improvements to the underlying mesh optimization code may cause vertices to be generated in a different order than in previous Unity versions. If you rely on vertex ordering in the optimized mesh data such as for vertex painting be aware this data may need to be re-generated.

This means that after the refresh/import scriptables objects will have the modified values from modified assets. Before this change, the scriptable object would get "null" value (when using operator==) after the refresh/import.

  • Compute: * Allows more of the scripting CommandBuffers utility functions to be used with command buffers executed on async compute, such as getting temporary render targets.

    • Adds the concept of execution flags to CommandBuffers describing how they are intended to be executed and allowing for better error handling as those command buffers are built in script. This allows for generating exceptions when adding commands not valid for async compute.
