Using .glb model with instantiation and vertex colors

[Panuchka]

I was more thinking about a dynamic approach where you move the light and play with light.includedOnlyMeshes to define which mesh is lit or receive shadows

Ah, but again there is the problem of instanced meshes… Asked about this a while ago as well Creating lights dynamically that effect instanced meshes with includedOnlyMeshes - #2 by Deltakosh

All these threads are kind of my own adventure of learning and to find out a perfect way to light up my game. If you’re interested of the journey, here is the first lighting post: Best way to create part of a mesh that acts as a light source

@Deltakosh

But I totally get your point with vertex color. I love the idea honestly.

I’m glad you do! However there is still the problem of instanced meshes in this case… Can I interact with individual vertices of an instanced mesh? Or do I have to use a shader to do this? As I said before there seems to be a way to change the mesh color as a whole per instance using buffers: Instances | Babylon.js Documentation

But can this be used with instanced mesh vertices?
