VectorizeImage Plugin for Godot

VectorizeImage is a custom Godot plugin that turns raster textures into triangulated meshes using random distribution and edge detection without segmentation or with segmentation. Perfect for stylized assets or experimental image-based mesh generation.

Note: This plugin is currently only available for local use and not yet published on the Godot Asset Library.

Features

• Supports 3 generation modes: Random, Edge, and Segment
• Adjustable color modes: Single (flat color) or Blend (gradient)
• Built-in mesh generation using Godot’s 2D rendering
• Highly configurable dot spacing, thresholds, and resolution scaling
• Preview and regenerate meshes live in the editor

Prerequisites

• Godot Engine 4.x (Developed on version 4.3)
