	Member	Description
	ModelPart()()()()	Initializes a new instance of the ModelPart class
	ModelPart(String)	Initializes a new instance of the ModelPart class
	AddBoneAssignment(BoneVertexAssignment)	Assigns a vertex to a bone with a given weight, for skeletal animation.
	AnimationSettings	Returns type of animation used to render geometry contained in this ModelPart. If animation type cannot be determined for any reason, returns AnimationTypeAndWeights.NoAnimation
	BaseLocalSpatial	Spatial Offset of this Model Part as dictated by the Source Model (from which it was imported).
	BoneVertexAssignments	Returns IEnumerable interface for vertex-to-bone assignments used for Ogre skeletal geometry for this model part.
	CanInstancingBeUsed()()()()	Checks whether or not this model part can be rendered via Batch, based on vertex format.
	CreateNewMaterial()()()()
	Dispose()()()()
	GenerateLODGeometry()()()()	Generate geometry LOD for this ModelPart.
	GenerateLODGeometry(Int32)	Generate geometry LOD at given level of detail for this ModelPart.
	Geometry
	GetBoundingBox()()()()
	GetBoundingBox(BoundingBox%, Boolean)	Returns own bounding box of the ModelPart.
	GetIndexData(Int32)
	GetIndices(List<(Of <<'(UInt32>)>>))
	GetIndicesToBuffer(array<UInt32>[]()[][], Int32, Int32)	Read index buffer.
	GetPN(List<(Of <<'(Vector3>)>>))	Get Vertex Position/Normal
	GetPNT(List<(Of <<'(VertexPositionNormalTexture>)>>))	Get Vertex Position/Normal/Texture coordinates
	GetRenderableGeometry(GeometryData)
	GetRenderableGeometry(GeometryData, Int32)	Fills a GeometryData structure required to render this model.
	GetScaledBoundingBox()()()()	Returns own bounding box of the ModelPart.
	GetTexCoord(List<(Of <<'(Vector2>)>>))
	GetUshortIndexDataToInts(IndexBuffer, Int32, array<UInt32>[]()[][], Int32, Int32)	NOTE: Uses IHugeMemoryService.GetLargeUInt16Buffer.
	GetVertexData()()()()
	GetVertexData(Int32)
	GetVertices(List<(Of <<'(Vector3>)>>), Boolean)	"transformToModelSpace=true" => Local transforms are applied. "=false" => raw vertices.
	HasBoneAssignments	Gets/Sets if ModelPart has associated Bone Assignments.
	HasVertexData
	IndexData	Index data for the most detailed LOD of this model part
	IsAnimationShaderDisabled
	IsCustomizedAfterImport
	IsInstancingUsed	Gets/sets whether instancing is preferred to render this model part. Default is false.
	IsVisible
	IsVisibleOverride
	LocalOrientation	Final rotation of the ModelPart in local space of the Model. In case if W part contains value equal to Quats.EulerMarker value, this quaternion must be converted from Euler form to natural Quaternion with Quats.FromEulerQuat method. Default is Quaternion.Identity. When ModelPart is used to create ActorPart from, this value takes part in the initial ActorPart.LocalTransform matrix.
	LocalRotation	Final rotation of the ModelPart in local space of the Model. In case if W part contains value equal to Quats.EulerMarker value, this quaternion must be converted from Euler form to natural Quaternion with Quats.FromEulerQuat method. Default is Quaternion.Identity. When ModelPart is used to create ActorPart from, this value takes part in the initial ActorPart.LocalTransform matrix.
	LocalScale	Final scale of the ModelPart in local space of the Model. Default is Vector3.One. When ModelPart is used to create ActorPart from, this value takes part in the initial ActorPart.LocalTransform matrix.
	LocalTransform	Resulting Local Transform from transforming the BaseLocalSpatial by the Model and Part SpatialAdjustments.
	LocalTransformChanged	Fires in response to LocalScale, LocalTranslation or LocalOrientation property change.
	LocalTranslation	Final Local Position of the ModelPart origin in local space of the Model. Default is Vector3.Zero. When ModelPart is used to create ActorPart from, this value takes part in the initial ActorPart.LocalTransform matrix.
	LodIndexData	Gets/sets the list of index data for each level of detail for this model part, except of LOD0.
	LodVertexData	Gets/sets the list of vertex data for each level of detail for this model part, except of LOD0.
	Material
	MaterialName	Gets/sets name of material for this model part.
	MaterialRef
	Name	Name of model part.
	NumBoneAssignments	Gets number of BoneAssignments
	ParentModel	Parent Model of ModelPart
	PartIndex
	PrimitiveCount
	PrimitiveType	Gets/sets the type of primitives this model part consists of (triangle list, triangle strip, line list etc).
	SetBoundingBox(BoundingBox)
	SetLODGeometry(Model..::..LodUsage, GeometryData)
	SetUshortIndexDataFromInts(IndexBuffer, array<Int32>[]()[][], Int32, Int32)	NOTE: Uses IHugeMemoryService.GetLargeUInt16Buffer.
	SpatialAdjustment	Additional Spatial Adjustment added to the BaseLocalSpatial value (often user-edited).
	ToString()()()()	(Overrides Object..::..ToString()()()().)
	ToString(String, Object)
	UseAllTrackedPropertiesIfCustomized
	UseSharedVertices	Indicates if this modelPart shares vertex data with other models or whether it has its own vertices.
	VertexCount
	VertexData	Vertex buffers containing geometry of the model part

Remarks

Prototypes which make up the definition of a discrete 3D object are made up of potentially multiple parts. This is because different parts of the model may use different materials or use different vertex formats, such that a rendering state change is required between them.

Like the Model class, instatiations of 3D objects in the scene share the ModelPart instances, and have the option of overriding their material differences on a per-object basis if required. See the ActorPart class for more information.
