Unigine::Player Class

Player Masks#

Objects, decals and lights can be selectively displayed in the player viewport. To be displayed, their viewport mask should be matching with the player's viewport mask (one matching bit is enough):

Object surface viewport mask or decal viewport mask
Light viewport mask to light the object/decal
Material viewport mask to render the object/decal material

Reflections can also be selectively rendered into the viewport: an object can be rendered without reflection or reflection without an object. For that, the player's reflection viewport mask should match:

Reflection mask of the reflecting material
Viewport mask of the reflecting material
Object surface viewport mask
Material viewport mask of the reflected material
Light viewport mask

That is enough to render reflection from the object without an object itself. If an object needs to be present as well, all these conditions should simply go together with above mentioned ones.

To render an object without reflection, simply either its material viewport mask or object surface viewport mask should not match the player's reflection viewport mask.

Players also can have sound source and sound reverberation masks. As well as for viewports, corresponding masks of the Player object should match with SoundReverb and SoundSource masks.

Perspective and Orthographic Projection#

Depending on your project's requirements you can set your player to use perspective or orthographic projection. This can be done via the setProjection() method.

For example, you can use the following code to set up orthographic projection or perspective projection for your current game player depending on a flag value:

Source code (C++)

#include "AppWorldLogic.h"
#include <UnigineGame.h>
#include <UniginePlayers.h>

using namespace Unigine;
using namespace Math;

/* ... */

	/* ... */

	// ortho flag - change this value to switch projection type
	int ortho_proj = 0;

int AppWorldLogic::init()
{

	// getting the current player
	PlayerPtr player = Game::getPlayer();

	// setting up near and far clipping planes and aspect ratio
	float znear = 0.001f;
	float zfar = 10000.0f;
	float aspect = 16.0f / 9.0f;
	
	float fov = 60.0f;
	float ortho_height = 2.0f;
	
	player->setZNear(znear);
	player->setZFar(zfar);
	player->setFov(fov);
	player->setOrthoHeight(ortho_height);
	
	if (ortho_proj)
	{
		// setting up orthographic projection
		player->setProjectionMode(Camera::PROJECTION_MODE_ORTHOGRAPHIC);
		
		// or setting up orthographic projection manually
		player->setProjection(Math::ortho(-ortho_height / 2.0f, ortho_height / 2.0f, -ortho_height / 2.0f, ortho_height / 2.0f, znear, zfar));
	}
	else
	{
		// setting up perspective projection
		player->setProjectionMode(Camera::PROJECTION_MODE_PERSPECTIVE);
		
		// or setting up perspective projection manually
		player->setProjection(Math::perspective(fov, aspect, znear, zfar));
	}

	return 1;
}

Getting Euler Angles for an Active Camera

Sometimes it might be necessary to get current rotation of the active camera as a set of Euler angles. When we talk about axes in UNIGINE we assume that:


X axis points to the right giving us a pitch angle. Y axis points forward giving us a roll angle. Z axis points up giving us a yaw (heading) angle.	Object Direction Vectors

To get the Euler angles we should use decomposeRotationZXY() also known as Cardan angles (yaw is independent, then we get pitch and in the end, roll). But, there is one thing to be taken into account - cameras have a different system:


X axis points to the right giving us a pitch angle. Y axis points up giving us a yaw (heading) angle. Z axis points backward giving us a -roll angle.	Camera Direction Vectors

To compensate it, we need to rotate our camera -90 degrees around X axis.

Source code (C++)

#include "AppWorldLogic.h"
#include <UnigineGame.h>
#include <UniginePlayers.h>

using namespace Unigine;
using namespace Math;

/* ... */

	// getting the current view matrix of the current camera
	Mat4 currentModelview = Game::getPlayer()->getCamera()->getIModelview();

	// decomposing rotation matrix of the camera (with compensation)
	vec3 euler = decomposeRotationZXY(mat3(currentModelview * Mat4(rotateX(-90.0f))));
	euler.x += 90.0f;

	// perform correction for negative angle values
	if (euler.x < 0) euler.x += 360.0f;
	if (euler.y < 0) euler.y += 360.0f;
	if (euler.z < 0) euler.z += 360.0f;

	// Euler angles for the camera
	float pitch = euler.x;
	float roll = euler.y;
	float yaw = euler.z;

Usage Example#

In this example we create a PlayerSpectator player, specify its parameters and set it as current game player.

In the AppWorldLogic.h header file include the UniginePlayers.h header and declare a PlayerSpectator smart pointer.

Source code (C++)

#include <UnigineLogic.h>
#include <UnigineStreams.h>
#include <UniginePlayers.h>

class AppWorldLogic : public Unigine::WorldLogic
{

public:

	/* public methods */

private:
	Unigine::PlayerSpectatorPtr playerSpectator;

};

In the AppWorldLogic.cpp implementation file do the following:

Include the UnigineGame.h header to set a new player by using setPlayer() method.
Use using namespace Unigine directive: names of the Unigine namespace will be injected into global namespace.
Specify the necessary parameters of the created Player instance.
Set our recently created Player as a current game player.
Clear the pointer to the PlayerSpectator to avoid memory leaks.

Here are the necessary parts of code:

Source code (C++)

#include "AppWorldLogic.h"
#include <UnigineGame.h>
#include <UniginePlayers.h>

using namespace Unigine;
using namespace Math;

/* ... */

int AppWorldLogic::init()
{

	// create a new PlayerSpectator instance
	playerSpectator = PlayerSpectator::create();

	// specify the necessary parameters: FOV, ZNear, ZFar, view direction vector and PlayerSpectator position.
	playerSpectator->setFov(90.0f);
	playerSpectator->setZNear(0.1f);
	playerSpectator->setZFar(10000.0f);
	playerSpectator->setViewDirection(Math::vec3(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f));
	playerSpectator->setWorldPosition(Math::Vec3(-1.6f, -1.7f, 1.7f));

	// set the Player to the Game singleton instance
	Game::setPlayer(playerSpectator);

	return 1;
}

int AppWorldLogic::shutdown()
{

	// clear the pointer to Player
	playerSpectator.clear();

	return 1;
}

Source code (C++)

#include "AppWorldLogic.h"
#include <UnigineGame.h>
#include <UniginePlayers.h>

using namespace Unigine;
using namespace Math;

/* ... */

int AppWorldLogic::update()
{

	float time = Game::getTime();

	// initializing a plane to be set as a near clipping plane
	Math::Vec4 plane = Math::Vec4(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f + Math::sin(time) * 4.0f);

	// getting a player
	PlayerPtr player = Game::getPlayer();
	if (player != nullptr)
	{

Notice

It is not recommended to use this method for setting obliqueness of the near clipping plane of the frustum, as in this case a number of features (such as clouds, shadows, TAA, a number of engine optimizations, etc.) will not function properly. Please, use the setObliqueFrustum() method instead.

Arguments

const Math::mat4 & projection - New projection matrix.

Math::mat4 getProjection ( ) const#

Returns the current projection matrix with unit (1.0) aspect ratio.

void setUp ( const Math::vec3 & up ) #

Sets an up direction of the player's viewport (i.e. tilt of the player's viewport).

Notice

In case of PlayerActor, its transformation forces it to recalculate its inner state (position, direction, angles and so on), so the up direction of the player's viewport may become "negative forward". And then transformation will be recalculated by using this direction, causing flip of the basis of the player actor. To avoid such flipping, the theta and phi angles should be recalculated by using the current viewing orientation of the player.

Arguments
