Detailed Description

Representation of a dynamic light source in the scene.

Remarks: Lights are added to the scene like any other object. They contain various parameters like type, position, attenuation (how light intensity fades with distance), colour etc.

: The defaults when a light is created is pure white diffuse light, with no attenuation (does not decrease with distance) and a range of 1000 world units.

: Lights are created by using the SceneManager::createLight method. They can subsequently be added to a SceneNode if required to allow them to move relative to a node in the scene. A light attached to a SceneNode is assumed to have a base position of (0,0,0) and a direction of (0,0,1) before modification by the SceneNode's own orientation. If not attached to a SceneNode, the light's position and direction is as set using setPosition and setDirection.

: Remember also that dynamic lights rely on modifying the colour of vertices based on the position of the light compared to an object's vertex normals. Dynamic lighting will only look good if the object being lit has a fair level of tessellation and the normals are properly set. This is particularly true for the spotlight which will only look right on highly tessellated models. In the future OGRE may be extended for certain scene types so an alternative to the standard dynamic lighting may be used, such as dynamic lightmaps.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum Ogre::Light::LightTypes

Defines the type of light.

Enumerator
LT_POINT	Point light sources give off light equally in all directions, so require only position not direction.
LT_DIRECTIONAL	Directional lights simulate parallel light beams from a distant source, hence have direction but no position.
LT_SPOTLIGHT	Spotlights simulate a cone of light from a source so require position and direction, plus extra values for falloff.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Ogre::Light::Light ( )

Default constructor (for Python mainly).

Ogre::Light::Light ( const String & name )

Normal constructor.

Should not be called directly, but rather the SceneManager::createLight method should be used.

Ogre::Light::~Light ( )

Standard destructor.

Member Function Documentation

internal method for calculating current squared distance from some world position

Real Ogre::Light::_deriveShadowFarClipDistance ( const Camera * maincam ) const

Derive a shadow camera far distance from either the light, or from the main camera if the light doesn't have its own setting.

Real Ogre::Light::_deriveShadowNearClipDistance ( const Camera * maincam ) const

Derive a shadow camera near distance from either the light, or from the main camera if the light doesn't have its own setting.

StringVector& Ogre::AnimableObject::_getAnimableValueNames ( void )

inlineprotectedinherited

Get an updateable reference to animable value list.

Definition at line 267 of file OgreAnimable.h.

References Ogre::Exception::ERR_ITEM_NOT_FOUND, and OGRE_EXCEPT.

virtual MovableObjectFactory* Ogre::MovableObject::_getCreator ( void ) const

inlinevirtualinherited

Get the creator of this object, if any (internal use only)

Definition at line 186 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

virtual const PlaneBoundedVolumeList& Ogre::Light::_getFrustumClipVolumes ( const Camera *const cam ) const

virtual

Internal method for calculating the clip volumes outside of the frustum which can be used to determine which objects are casting shadow on the frustum as a whole.

Remarks: Each of the volumes is a pyramid for a point/spot light and a cuboid for a directional light.

size_t Ogre::Light::_getIndexInFrame ( ) const

inline

Gets the index at which this light is in the current render.

Remarks: Lights will be present in the in a list for every renderable, detected and sorted appropriately, and sometimes it's useful to know what position in that list a given light occupies. This can vary from frame to frame (and object to object) so you should not use this value unless you're sure the context is correct.

Definition at line 411 of file OgreLight.h.

virtual LightList* Ogre::MovableObject::_getLightList ( )

inlinevirtualinherited

Returns a pointer to the current list of lights for this object.

Remarks: You should not modify this list outside of MovableObject::Listener::objectQueryLights (say if you want to use it to implement this method, and use the pointer as a return value) and for reading it's only accurate as at the last frame.

Definition at line 491 of file OgreMovableObject.h.

Remarks: This method allows a Light to map in a custom GPU program parameter based on it's own data. This is represented by a GPU auto parameter of ACT_LIGHT_CUSTOM, and to allow there to be more than one of these per Light, the 'data' field on the auto parameter will identify which parameter is being updated and on which light. The implementation of this method must identify the parameter being updated, and call a 'setConstant' method on the passed in GpuProgramParameters object.

: You do not need to override this method if you're using the standard sets of data associated with the Renderable as provided by setCustomParameter and getCustomParameter. By default, the implementation will map from the value indexed by the 'constantEntry.data' parameter to a value previously set by setCustomParameter. But custom Renderables are free to override this if they want, in any case.

Parameters

paramIndex	The index of the constant being updated
constantEntry	The auto constant entry from the program parameters
params	The parameters object which this method should call to set the updated parameters.

void Ogre::Light::_updateRenderQueue ( RenderQueue * queue )

virtual

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

protectedvirtualinherited

Utility method for extruding a bounding box.

Parameters

box	Original bounding box, will be updated in-place.
lightPos	4D light position in object space, when w=0.0f this represents a directional light.
extrudeDist	The 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

vertexBuffer	The vertex buffer containing ONLY xyz position values, which must be originalVertexCount * 2 * 3 floats long.
originalVertexCount	The 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.
lightPos	4D light position in object space, when w=0.0f this represents a directional light.
extrudeDist	The distance to extrude.

virtual void Ogre::ShadowCaster::generateShadowVolume	(	EdgeData *	edgeData,
		const HardwareIndexBufferSharedPtr &	indexBuffer,
		size_t &	indexBufferUsedSize,
		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

edgeData	The edge information to use.
indexBuffer	The buffer into which to write data into; current contents are assumed to be discardable.
indexBufferUsedSize	If the rest of buffer is enough than it would be locked with HBL_NO_OVERWRITE semantic and indexBufferUsedSize would be increased, otherwise HBL_DISCARD would be used and indexBufferUsedSize would be reset.
light	The light, mainly for type info as silhouette calculations should already have been done in updateEdgeListLightFacing
shadowRenderables	A list of shadow renderables which has already been constructed but will need populating with details of the index ranges to be used.
flags	Additional controller flags, see ShadowRenderableFlags.

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.

void Ogre::Light::resetCustomShadowCameraSetup ( void )

Reset the shadow camera setup to the default.

See also: ShadowCameraSetup

void Ogre::Light::resetShadowFarDistance ( void )

Tells the light to use the shadow far distance of the SceneManager.

void Ogre::Light::setAttenuation	(	Real	range,
		Real	constant,
		Real	linear,
		Real	quadratic
	)

Sets the attenuation parameters of the light source i.e.

how it diminishes with distance.

Remarks: Lights normally get fainter the further they are away. Also, each light is given a maximum range beyond which it cannot affect any objects.

: Light attenuation is not applicable to directional lights since they have an infinite range and constant intensity.

: This follows a standard attenuation approach - see any good 3D text for the details of what they mean since i don't have room here!

Parameters

range	The absolute upper range of the light in world units.
constant	The constant factor in the attenuation formula: 1.0 means never attenuate, 0.0 is complete attenuation.
linear	The linear factor in the attenuation formula: 1 means attenuate evenly over the distance.
quadratic	The quadratic factor in the attenuation formula: adds a curvature to the attenuation formula.

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.

void Ogre::Light::setCustomParameter	(	uint16	index,
		const Vector4 &	value
	)

Sets a custom parameter for this Light, which may be used to drive calculations for this specific Renderable, like GPU program parameters.

Remarks: Calling this method simply associates a numeric index with a 4-dimensional value for this specific Light. This is most useful if the material which this Renderable uses a vertex or fragment program, and has an ACT_LIGHT_CUSTOM parameter entry. This parameter entry can refer to the index you specify as part of this call, thereby mapping a custom parameter for this renderable to a program parameter.

Parameters

index	The index with which to associate the value. Note that this does not have to start at 0, and can include gaps. It also has no direct correlation with a GPU program parameter index - the mapping between the two is performed by the ACT_LIGHT_CUSTOM entry, if that is used.
value	The value to associate.

void Ogre::Light::setCustomShadowCameraSetup ( const ShadowCameraSetupPtr & customShadowSetup )

Set this light to use a custom shadow camera when rendering texture shadows.

Remarks: This changes the shadow camera setup for just this light, you can set the shadow camera setup globally using SceneManager::setShadowCameraSetup

See also: ShadowCameraSetup

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.

void Ogre::Light::setDiffuseColour	(	Real	red,
		Real	green,
		Real	blue
	)

Sets the colour of the diffuse light given off by this source.

Remarks: Material objects have ambient, diffuse and specular values which indicate how much of each type of light an object reflects. This value denotes the amount and colour of this type of light the light exudes into the scene. The actual appearance of objects is a combination of the two.

: Diffuse light simulates the typical light emanating from light sources and affects the base colour of objects together with ambient light.

void Ogre::Light::setDiffuseColour ( const ColourValue & colour )

Sets the colour of the diffuse light given off by this source.

Remarks: Material objects have ambient, diffuse and specular values which indicate how much of each type of light an object reflects. This value denotes the amount and colour of this type of light the light exudes into the scene. The actual appearance of objects is a combination of the two.

Remarks: This factor is only useful in High Dynamic Range (HDR) rendering. You can bind it to a shader variable to take it into account,

See also: GpuProgramParameters

Parameters

power The power rating of this light, default is 1.0.

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.

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

queueID Enumerated 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

queueID	Enumerated value of the queue group to use. See the enum RenderQueueGroupID for what kind of values can be used here.
priority	The priority within a group to use.

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

void Ogre::Light::setShadowFarClipDistance ( Real farClip )

inline

Set the far clip plane distance to be used by the shadow camera, if this light casts texture shadows.

Remarks: This is different from the 'shadow far distance', which is always measured from the main camera. This distance is the far clip plane of the light camera.

Parameters

farClip The distance, or -1 to use the main camera setting.

Definition at line 468 of file OgreLight.h.

void Ogre::Light::setShadowFarDistance ( Real distance )

Sets the maximum distance away from the camera that shadows by this light will be visible.

Remarks: Shadow techniques can be expensive, therefore it is a good idea to limit them to being rendered close to the camera if possible, and to skip the expense of rendering shadows for distance objects. This method allows you to set the distance at which shadows will no longer be rendered.

Note: Each shadow technique can interpret this subtely differently. For example, one technique may use this to eliminate casters, another might use it to attenuate the shadows themselves. You should tweak this value to suit your chosen shadow technique and scene setup.

void Ogre::Light::setShadowNearClipDistance ( Real nearClip )

inline

Set the near clip plane distance to be used by the shadow camera, if this light casts texture shadows.

Parameters

nearClip The distance, or -1 to use the main camera setting.

Definition at line 444 of file OgreLight.h.

void Ogre::Light::setSpecularColour	(	Real	red,
		Real	green,
		Real	blue
	)

Sets the colour of the specular light given off by this source.

Remarks: Material objects have ambient, diffuse and specular values which indicate how much of each type of light an object reflects. This value denotes the amount and colour of this type of light the light exudes into the scene. The actual appearance of objects is a combination of the two.

: Specular light affects the appearance of shiny highlights on objects, and is also dependent on the 'shininess' Material value.

void Ogre::Light::setSpecularColour ( const ColourValue & colour )

Sets the colour of the specular light given off by this source.

Remarks: Material objects have ambient, diffuse and specular values which indicate how much of each type of light an object reflects. This value denotes the amount and colour of this type of light the light exudes into the scene. The actual appearance of objects is a combination of the two.

: Specular light affects the appearance of shiny highlights on objects, and is also dependent on the 'shininess' Material value.

void Ogre::Light::setSpotlightFalloff ( Real val )

Sets the falloff between the inner and outer cones of the spotlight.

void Ogre::Light::setSpotlightInnerAngle ( const Radian & val )

Sets the angle covered by the spotlights inner cone.

void Ogre::Light::setSpotlightNearClipDistance ( Real nearClip )

inline

Set the near clip plane distance to be used by spotlights that use light clipping, allowing you to render spots as if they start from further down their frustum.

Parameters

nearClip The near distance.

Definition at line 289 of file OgreLight.h.

void Ogre::Light::setSpotlightOuterAngle ( const Radian & val )

Sets the angle covered by the spotlights outer cone.

void Ogre::Light::setSpotlightRange	(	const Radian &	innerAngle,
		const Radian &	outerAngle,
		Real	falloff = `1.0`
	)

Sets the range of a spotlight, i.e.

the angle of the inner and outer cones and the rate of falloff between them.

Parameters

innerAngle Angle covered by the bright inner cone

Note: The inner cone applicable only to Direct3D, it'll always treat as zero in OpenGL.

Parameters

outerAngle	Angle covered by the outer cone
falloff	The rate of falloff between the inner and outer cones. 1.0 means a linear falloff, less means slower falloff, higher means faster falloff.

void Ogre::Light::setType ( LightTypes type )

Sets the type of light - see LightTypes for more info.

virtual OGRE_DEPRECATED 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 visibility flags for this object.

Remarks: As well as a simple true/false value for visibility (as seen in setVisible), you can also set visibility 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.

void Ogre::Light::setVisible ( bool visible )

virtual

Remarks: Although lights themselves are not 'visible', setting a light to invisible means it no longer affects the scene.

Reimplemented from Ogre::MovableObject.

virtual void Ogre::Light::update ( void ) const

protectedvirtual

Internal method for synchronising with parent node (if any)

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

edgeData	The edge information to update.
lightPos	4D vector representing the light, a directional light has w=0.0.

void Ogre::Light::visitRenderables	(	Renderable::Visitor *	visitor,
		bool	debugRenderables = `false`
	)

virtual

Method to allow a caller to abstractly iterate over the Renderable instances that this MovableObject will add to the render queue when asked, if any.

Parameters

visitor	Pointer to a class implementing the Renderable::Visitor interface which will be called back for each Renderable which will be queued. Bear in mind that the state of the Renderable instances may not be finalised depending on when you call this.
debugRenderables	If false, only regular renderables will be visited (those for normal display). If true, debug renderables will be included too.

Implements Ogre::MovableObject.
