local function generate_icosahedron()
	
	local editable_mesh = asset_service:CreateEditableMesh()
	
	for vertex = 1, #vertices do
		editable_mesh:AddVertex(vertices[vertex])
	end
	
	for _, group in triangles do
		editable_mesh:AddTriangle(group[1], group[2], group[3])
	end
	
end


generate_icosahedron()

so ive followed an article about generating an icosahedron, copied the vertex positions and triangle vertex groups, yet i get an error “Unable to add new triangle, vertex id 0 is invalid”

#2

lua array is 1-based indexing. try make all triangle index + 1

#3

ive done that, but instead of returning vertex id 0 is invalid, it returns vertex id 1 is invalid

#4

i see. AddVertex will return a number which i think is the “internal index”

so we store them

local vertexIndice = {}
…
	for vertex = 1, #vertices do
		table. insert ( vertexIndice, editable_mesh:AddVertex(vertices[vertex]) )
	end
	
	for _, group in triangles do
		editable_mesh:AddTriangle(vertexIndice[ group[1]], vertexIndice[group[2]], vertexIndice[group[3]])
	end
#5

yeah ive actually done this before you replied but thanks, its similar to what i did but i didnt use table insert

EDIT: ill mark you as the solution
