I get the permissions thing but can we still have access to some of the EditableMesh API even if we don’t own it? Like, GetFaces() or something? I have a plugin checking for mesh poly counts and its useless now because either the group owns the asset, or another user owns the asset. Something like read-only privileges would suffice I think.

Is this slower than how live rendering worked before? Also are we going to get a :Clone method for EditableMeshes?
Was the behaviour of editableMesh:AddColor(...) changed? I’m currently stumped by a new error at the indicated line. “EditableMesh is fixed-size, adding or removing elements is not allowed in-experience”
Hello! add... is disabled for fixed-size EditableMesh, and FixedSize = true by default for CreateEditableMeshAsync to save memory. You can change to as:CreateEditableMeshAsync(content, {FixedSize = false} ) to use functions that may change memory size.

How do I make texture calculation faster, this is only a 256 x 256 editable image and I’m getting serious lag (150ms). Is there anyway I can optimize this to the point where it runs real time?
---- Texture calculation --
for a = 1, texture.Size.X * texture.Size.Y do
local tempAmplitude = 2;
local tempFreq = 0.025;
local height = 0.01;
local f = 1;
height = heights[f]
for l = 1, 15, 1 do
-- For more detail lower amp and heighten freq
tempAmplitude = tempAmplitude*0.82;
tempFreq = tempFreq*1.18
-- Calculate WaveCoordinate
local xz = (-1024+(a%textureSize)*8) * d[l].X + (-1024+(a/textureSize)*8) * d[l].Y;
-- Wave equation
--height = height + math.sin(tempFreq * xz + t) * tempAmplitude
height = height + 2 * tempAmplitude * math.pow((math.sin(xz * tempFreq - t)+1)/2,2);
end
local outAlpha = 0;
if height >= 13.5 then
-- If wave is breaking, set foam opacity based on the height
outAlpha = math.min((height - 13.5)*25, 25)
end
local pixelIndex = (a - 1) * 4
if (liveOcean==nil) then
buffer.writeu8(pixelsBuffer, pixelIndex, 13);
buffer.writeu8(pixelsBuffer, pixelIndex + 1, 51)
buffer.writeu8(pixelsBuffer, pixelIndex + 2, 88)
buffer.writeu8(pixelsBuffer, pixelIndex + 3, 130)
buffer.writeu8(foamBuffer, pixelIndex, 255);
buffer.writeu8(foamBuffer, pixelIndex + 1, 255)
buffer.writeu8(foamBuffer, pixelIndex + 2, 255)
end
buffer.writeu8(foamBuffer, pixelIndex + 3 , outAlpha)
end
texture:WritePixelsBuffer(Vector2.zero, texture.Size, pixelsBuffer)
foamTexture:WritePixelsBuffer(Vector2.zero, texture.Size, foamBuffer)
texture:DrawImage(Vector2.zero,foamTexture,Enum.ImageCombineType.AlphaBlend)
I am unable to create transparent EditableMesh colors, when doing EditableMesh:AddColor(Color3, 1), the mesh still renders fully opaque.
Thanks for the report, it looks like a bug.
As a temporary workaround, if you set the transparency of the meshPart that is being used to render the EditableMesh to something small like 0.05, then it should render the transparent vertices properly.
I notice that that the bounding boxes of my editablemeshes are not properly aligned with the visuals
Is there anyway to fix this or is this just an engine bug similar to this? editable meshes disappearing
Why does this restriction exist? It ruins my plans to support player-supplied HUD skins using just 1 ID to extract font colors from an atlas.
I’m not too sure what happened but EditableMeshes are just not working for me at all anymore, even in the Hubcap place.
I know Roblox had some outage yesterday so maybe it’s still lingering, or something on your guy’s end, could be both. This is all that I changed to accommodate the new changes, specifically inside of the Hubcap place:
and this is how it was previously:
Welp, no longer.
Day 2 of asking to re-enable “FastCluster” for Humanoids
Thanks for catching this. The Hubcap demo in the post has now been updated to match the recent release. Please ensure you are using v24 of the rbxl file.

Apologies for the change, and that it took a while to track down - it looks like the flag that controlled it was accidentally disabled 
. It will be re-enabled on Monday
Thank you! I didn’t understand what was properly needed for the new AssetService system, but after referencing the updated place file my code works again
