REALTIMEMESHCOMPONENT · UE 5.2 – 5.7

Procedural meshes,
without the overhead.

The high-performance, fully dynamic mesh component for Unreal Engine. Build and update geometry at runtime with a render path engineered for scale — LODs, collision, and threading included.

// FEATURES

Engineered for realtime geometry.

[ nanite ]

Nanite at runtime

Build Nanite-ready meshes from procedural data at runtime — real cluster groups, full LOD DAG, per-page streaming. No cooked bake, no UStaticMesh round-trip.

[ dynamic ]

Fully dynamic geometry

Build and update meshes every frame through a minimal-overhead render path engineered for high vertex counts and async updates.

[ lighting ]

Lumen, SDF & HWRT

Efficient runtime Lumen card generation and accurate signed distance fields — dynamic meshes light correctly under Lumen GI and hardware ray tracing.

[ lods ]

Up to 8 LODs

Engine-maximum LOD support with full dithering across transitions. Stream the right level for the camera with zero hand-rolled glue.

[ collision ]

Collision & NavMesh

Full collision for static and dynamic meshes, cooked async to keep the game thread moving. Full NavMesh integration out of the box.

[ formats ]

Flexible mesh formats

Trade memory for features as your project needs — up to 8 UV channels, normal or high-precision UVs and normals, and variable index widths.

[ interop ]

PMC & DynamicMesh interop

Easy migration from ProceduralMeshComponent and a built-in renderer for UDynamicMesh — keep your geometry pipelines, gain RMC’s render path.

[ api ]

BP & C++ API

62 classes across Blueprint and C++ — from rapid prototypes to shipping subsystems. Win64, Mac, and Linux dev targets.

[ open ]

Open-source core

MIT-licensed foundation, used in production across thousands of projects. Free forever; Pro adds the heavier machinery when you ship.

// USAGE

A few lines to a live mesh.

Create a component, stream in vertices and triangles, and update any section on demand — from C++ or Blueprint.

// FAQ

Common questions.

More in the full documentation or ask in Discord.

Which engine versions are supported?

Unreal Engine 5.2 through 5.7. New engine releases are supported shortly after each launch — see the changelog for current engine compatibility.

Do I need C++ to use it?

No. RMC exposes its full mesh-building API to both C++ and Blueprint. The current docs lean on C++ examples, but you can build and update geometry from Blueprint with no C++ at all.

Is RMC free?

The Core component is open-source under the MIT licence on GitHub. Pro is a paid version on the Marketplace, adding RealtimeMeshDynamic (DynamicMesh / Geometry Scripting interop), RealtimeMeshComposable (hierarchical factory meshes), and first-party support.

Can I generate meshes on a background thread?

Yes. Collision updates run asynchronously off the game thread by default, and mesh updates are partial — only the sections you actually change are touched. See Component Core / Structure for the static vs. dynamic section draw modes.

How is collision handled?

Full collision for both static triangle mesh and dynamic moving objects, with full NavMesh integration. Cooking can run synchronously or asynchronously per update, keeping heavy regeneration off the game thread.
