The Mesh Instancing Tool is an automated utility plugin for Unreal Engine 5 designed to convert Static Mesh Actors (SMA) into Hierarchical Instanced Static Mesh (HISM) or Instanced Static Mesh (ISM) components. By batching identical geometries, the tool can significantly improve the performance in dense environments by reducing Primitives and Draw Calls.
Features:
Automate the Instancing of Static Mesh Actors
Support for ISM and HISM
Multiple Instancing Methods
World: Instance all identical Static Meshes in the current level
Batch: Create Batches of identical Static Meshes before Instancing
Single: Instance the Static Meshis you currently have selected in the Editor
Supports Static Lighting
Convert ISM and HISM Groups between each other
Revert ISM and HISM groups back to Static Mesh Actors
Controll how a cluster is created
Non-destructive Workflow
