Detailed Description

See also
InstanceBatch to understand how instancing works.

Instanced entities work in a very similar way as how an Entity works, as this interface tries to mimic it as most as possible to make the transition between Entity and InstancedEntity as straightforward and simple as possible. There are a couple inherent limitations, for example setRenderQueueGroup only works on the InstanceBatch level, not the individual instance. This limits Z sorting for alpha blending quite significantly An InstancedEntity won't appear in scene until a SceneNode is attached to them. Once the InstancedEntity is no longer needed, call InstanceBatch::removeInstancedEntity to put them back into a queue so the batch can return it back again when a new instance is requested.

Internally, instanced entities that are not visible (i.e. by setting setVisible(false) or when they don't have a SceneNode attached to them) a Zero world matrix is sent to the vertex shader which in turn causes a zero area triangle. This obviously means no Vertex shader benefit, but saves a bit of pixel shader processing power. Also this means this object won't be considered when sizing the InstanceBatch's bounding box.
Each instance has an instance ID unique within the batch, which matches the ID sent to the vertex shader by some techniques (like InstanceBatchShader).
Differences between Entity and InstancedEntity: Setting RenderQueueGroup and other Renderable stuff works at InstanceBatch level, not InstancedEntity. This is obviously a limitation from instancing in general, not this particular implementation

virtual void Ogre::ShadowCaster::extrudeBounds ( AxisAlignedBox box,
const Vector4 lightPos,
Real  extrudeDist 
) const
protectedvirtualinherited

Utility method for extruding a bounding box.

Parameters
boxOriginal bounding box, will be updated in-place
lightPos4D light position in object space, when w=0.0f this represents a directional light
extrudeDistThe distance to extrude
static void Ogre::ShadowCaster::extrudeVertices ( const HardwareVertexBufferSharedPtr vertexBuffer,
size_t  originalVertexCount,
const Vector4 lightPos,
Real  extrudeDist 
)
staticinherited

Utility method for extruding vertices based on a light.

Remarks
Unfortunately, because D3D cannot handle homogeneous (4D) position coordinates in the fixed-function pipeline (GL can, but we have to be cross-API), when we extrude in software we cannot extrude to infinity the way we do in the vertex program (by setting w to 0.0f). Therefore we extrude by a fixed distance, which may cause some problems with larger scenes. Luckily better hardware (ie vertex programs) can fix this.
Parameters
vertexBufferThe vertex buffer containing ONLY xyz position values, which must be originalVertexCount * 2 * 3 floats long.
originalVertexCountThe count of the original number of vertices, i.e. the number in the mesh, not counting the doubling which has already been done (by VertexData::prepareForShadowVolume) to provide the extruded area of the buffer.
lightPos4D light position in object space, when w=0.0f this represents a directional light
extrudeDistThe distance to extrude
virtual void Ogre::ShadowCaster::generateShadowVolume ( EdgeData edgeData,
const HardwareIndexBufferSharedPtr indexBuffer,
const Light light,
ShadowRenderableList shadowRenderables,
unsigned long  flags 
)
protectedvirtualinherited

Generates the indexes required to render a shadow volume into the index buffer which is passed in, and updates shadow renderables to use it.

Parameters
edgeDataThe edge information to use
indexBufferThe buffer into which to write data into; current contents are assumed to be discardable.
lightThe light, mainly for type info as silhouette calculations should already have been done in updateEdgeListLightFacing
shadowRenderablesA list of shadow renderables which has already been constructed but will need populating with details of the index ranges to be used.
flagsAdditional controller flags, see ShadowRenderableFlags
virtual const String& Ogre::AnimableObject::getAnimableDictionaryName ( void  ) const

const Light light,
HardwareIndexBufferSharedPtr indexBuffer,
bool  extrudeVertices,
Real  extrusionDist,
unsigned long  flags = 0 
)
virtualinherited

Define a default implementation of method from ShadowCaster which implements no shadows.

Implements Ogre::ShadowCaster.

Reimplemented in Ogre::StaticGeometry::Region.

virtual uint32 Ogre::MovableObject::getTypeFlags ( void  ) const
virtualinherited

Get the 'type flags' for this MovableObject.

Remarks
A type flag identifies the type of the MovableObject as a bitpattern. This is used for categorical inclusion / exclusion in SceneQuery objects. By default, this method returns all ones for objects not created by a MovableObjectFactory (hence always including them); otherwise it returns the value assigned to the MovableObjectFactory. Custom objects which don't use MovableObjectFactory will need to override this if they want to be included in queries.

Reimplemented in Ogre::BillboardSet, Ogre::Entity, Ogre::ParticleSystem, Ogre::Frustum, Ogre::StaticGeometry::Region, and Ogre::Light.

virtual const Any& Ogre::MovableObject::getUserAny ( void  ) const

virtual const LightList& Ogre::MovableObject::queryLights ( void  ) const
virtualinherited

Gets a list of lights, ordered relative to how close they are to this movable object.

Remarks
By default, this method gives the listener a chance to populate light list first, if there is no listener or Listener::objectQueryLights returns NULL, it'll query the light list from parent entity if it is present, or returns SceneNode::findLights if it has parent scene node, otherwise it just returns an empty list.
The object internally caches the light list, so it will recalculate it only when object is moved, or lights that affect the frustum have been changed (
See also
SceneManager::_getLightsDirtyCounter), but if listener exists, it will be called each time, so the listener should implement their own cache mechanism to optimise performance.
This method can be useful when implementing Renderable::getLights in case the renderable is a part of the movable.
Returns
The list of lights use to lighting this object.
virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::removeQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlinevirtualinherited

As setQueryFlags, except the flags passed as parameters are removed from the existing flags on this object.

Definition at line 400 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::removeVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlinevirtualinherited

As setVisibilityFlags, except the flags passed as parameters are removed from the existing flags on this object.

Definition at line 428 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

void Ogre::MovableObject::setCastShadows ( bool  enabled)
inlineinherited

Sets whether or not this object will cast shadows.

Remarks
This setting simply allows you to turn on/off shadows for a given object. An object will not cast shadows unless the scene supports it in any case (see SceneManager::setShadowTechnique), and also the material which is in use must also have shadow casting enabled. By default all entities cast shadows. If, however, for some reason you wish to disable this for a single object then you can do so using this method.
Note
This method normally refers to objects which block the light, but since Light is also a subclass of MovableObject, in that context it means whether the light causes shadows itself.

Definition at line 519 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setDebugDisplayEnabled ( bool  enabled)
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets whether or not the debug display of this object is enabled.

Remarks
Some objects aren't visible themselves but it can be useful to display a debug representation of them. Or, objects may have an additional debug display on top of their regular display. This option enables / disables that debug display. Objects that are not visible never display debug geometry regardless of this setting.

Definition at line 563 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

static void Ogre::MovableObject::setDefaultQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)

Definition at line 435 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setLightMask ( uint32  lightMask)
virtualinherited

Set a bitwise mask which will filter the lights affecting this object.

Remarks
This mask will be compared against the mask held against Light to determine if a light should affect a given object. By default, this mask is fully set meaning all lights will affect this object
virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setListener ( Listener listener)
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets a listener for this object.

Remarks
Note for size and performance reasons only one listener per object is allowed.

Definition at line 446 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets the query flags for this object.

Remarks
When performing a scene query, this object will be included or excluded according to flags on the object and flags on the query. This is a bitwise value, so only when a bit on these flags is set, will it be included in a query asking for that flag. The meaning of the bits is application-specific.

Definition at line 392 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderingDistance ( Real  dist)
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets the distance at which the object is no longer rendered.

Note
Camera::setUseRenderingDistance() needs to be called for this parameter to be used.
Parameters
distDistance beyond which the object will not be rendered (the default is 0, which means objects are always rendered).

Definition at line 299 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderingMinPixelSize ( Real  pixelSize)
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets the minimum pixel size an object needs to be in both screen axes in order to be rendered.

Note
Camera::setUseMinPixelSize() needs to be called for this parameter to be used.
Parameters
pixelSizeNumber of minimum pixels (the default is 0, which means objects are always rendered).

Definition at line 312 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderQueueGroup ( uint8  queueID)
virtualinherited

Sets the render queue group this entity will be rendered through.

Remarks
Render queues are grouped to allow you to more tightly control the ordering of rendered objects. If you do not call this method, all Entity objects default to the default queue (RenderQueue::getDefaultQueueGroup), which is fine for most objects. You may want to alter this if you want this entity to always appear in front of other objects, e.g. for a 3D menu system or such.
See RenderQueue for more details.
Parameters
queueIDEnumerated value of the queue group to use. See the enum RenderQueueGroupID for what kind of values can be used here.

Reimplemented in Ogre::ParticleSystem, and Ogre::Entity.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderQueueGroupAndPriority ( uint8  queueID,
ushort  priority 
)
virtualinherited

Sets the render queue group and group priority this entity will be rendered through.

Remarks
Render queues are grouped to allow you to more tightly control the ordering of rendered objects. Within a single render group there another type of grouping called priority which allows further control. If you do not call this method, all Entity objects default to the default queue and priority (RenderQueue::getDefaultQueueGroup, RenderQueue::getDefaultRenderablePriority), which is fine for most objects. You may want to alter this if you want this entity to always appear in front of other objects, e.g. for a 3D menu system or such.
See RenderQueue for more details.
Parameters
queueIDEnumerated value of the queue group to use. See the enum RenderQueueGroupID for what kind of values can be used here.
priorityThe priority within a group to use.

Reimplemented in Ogre::ParticleSystem, and Ogre::Entity.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setUserAny ( const Any anything)
inlinevirtualinherited
Deprecated:
use UserObjectBindings::setUserAny via getUserObjectBindings() instead.

Sets any kind of user value on this object.

Remarks
This method allows you to associate any user value you like with this MovableObject. This can be a pointer back to one of your own classes for instance.

Definition at line 329 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlinevirtualinherited

Sets the visiblity flags for this object.

Remarks
As well as a simple true/false value for visibility (as seen in setVisible), you can also set visiblity flags which when 'and'ed with the SceneManager's visibility mask can also make an object invisible.

Definition at line 420 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::setVisible ( bool  visible)
virtualinherited

Tells this object whether to be visible or not, if it has a renderable component.

Note
An alternative approach of making an object invisible is to detach it from it's SceneNode, or to remove the SceneNode entirely. Detaching a node means that structurally the scene graph changes. Once this change has taken place, the objects / nodes that have been removed have less overhead to the visibility detection pass than simply making the object invisible, so if you do this and leave the objects out of the tree for a long time, it's faster. However, the act of detaching / reattaching nodes is in itself more expensive than setting an object visibility flag, since in the latter case structural changes are not made. Therefore, small or frequent visibility changes are best done using this method; large or more longer term changes are best done by detaching.

Reimplemented in Ogre::Light.

virtual void Ogre::ShadowCaster::updateEdgeListLightFacing ( EdgeData edgeData,
const Vector4 lightPos 
)
protectedvirtualinherited

Tells the caster to perform the tasks necessary to update the edge data's light listing.

Can be overridden if the subclass needs to do additional things.

Parameters
edgeDataThe edge information to update
lightPos4D vector representing the light, a directional light has w=0.0
