This class describes how to create and modify mesh decals.

Creating a Mesh Decal#

The following code illustrates how to create a mesh decal, set its parameters and add the node to UnigineEditor.

Source code (C++)

// AppWorldLogic.h

#include <UnigineLogic.h>
#include <UnigineObjects.h>
#include <UnigineEditor.h>
#include <UnigineDecals.h>

class AppWorldLogic : public Unigine::WorldLogic {
	
public:
	AppWorldLogic();
	virtual ~AppWorldLogic();
	
	virtual int init();
	
	virtual int update();
	virtual int postUpdate();
	virtual int updatePhysics();
	
	virtual int shutdown();
	
	virtual int save(const Unigine::StreamPtr &stream);
	virtual int restore(const Unigine::StreamPtr &stream);

private:
	Unigine::DecalMeshPtr decal_mesh;
};

Source code (C++)

// AppWorldLogic.cpp

#include "AppWorldLogic.h";

using namespace Unigine;

int AppWorldLogic::init()
{
	// create a mesh with a surface (e.g. a box primitive)
	MeshPtr mesh = Mesh::create();
	mesh->addBoxSurface("box_0", Math::vec3(1.0f));

	// create a mesh decal using created mesh and setting its radius to 10, material to "decal_base"
	decal_mesh = DecalMesh::create(mesh, 10.0f, "decal_base");

	// set the name and position of the decal
	decal_mesh->setName("Mesh Decal");
	decal_mesh->setWorldPosition(Math::Vec3(0.0f, 0.0f, 5.0f));

	return 1;
}

DecalMesh Class

Members

static DecalMeshPtr create ( const Ptr<Mesh> & mesh, float radius, const char * material_name ) #

Constructor. Creates a new mesh decal with the given properties.

Arguments

const Ptr<Mesh> & mesh - Pointer to Mesh.
float radius - The height of the decal projection box along the Z axis, in units.
const char * material_name - Material name.

static DecalMeshPtr create ( const char * mesh_path, float radius, const char * material_name ) #

Constructor. Creates a new mesh decal with the given properties.

Arguments

const char * mesh_path - Mesh name.
Notice
The mesh should contain a single surface. In case if the mesh contains several surfaces, only the one with the 0 index will be used. Thus, the area of the decal will differ from the initial mesh.
float radius - The height of the decal projection box along the Z axis, in units.
const char * material_name - Material name

int setMesh ( const Ptr<Mesh> & mesh, bool unique = 1 ) #

Copies a given source mesh into the current decal mesh.

Source code (C++)

// create an empty decal mesh
DecalMeshPtr decalMesh = DecalMesh::create(NULL,8.0f,"decal_base_0");
// create a mesh
MeshPtr mesh = Mesh::create("decal.mesh");
// copy the mesh into the decal mesh
decalMesh->setMesh(mesh);

Arguments

const Ptr<Mesh> & mesh - Mesh to be set.
Notice
The mesh should contain a single surface. In case if the mesh contains several surfaces, only the one with the 0 index will be used. Thus, the area of the decal will differ from the initial mesh.
bool unique - Unique flag used when you create several objects out of a single Mesh instance:
- 0 - An instance of source mesh geometry is created. If the source geometry is changed at runtime, its instances will be changed as well.
- 1 - A copy of source mesh geometry is created and changes made to the source geometry do not affect the mesh.

Return value

1 if the mesh is copied successfully; otherwise, 0.

int getMesh ( const Ptr<Mesh> & mesh ) const#

Copies the current decal mesh into the received mesh. For example, you can obtain geometry of the decal mesh and then change it:

Source code (C++)

// a decal mesh from which geometry will be obtained
DecalMeshPtr decalMesh = DecalMesh::create("decal.mesh",8.0f,"decal_base_0");
// create a new mesh
MeshPtr mesh = Mesh::create();
// copy geometry to the created mesh
if (decalMesh->getMesh(mesh)) {
	// do something with the obtained mesh
}
else {
	Log::error("Failed to copy a mesh\n");
}

Arguments

const Ptr<Mesh> & mesh - Current mesh.

Return value

1 if the mesh is copied successfully; otherwise, 0.

void setMeshName ( const char * path, bool force_load = 0 ) #

Sets a new name for the mesh and forces loading of the mesh with the new name for the current decal mesh.

NoticeThe mesh should contain a single surface. In case if the mesh contains several surfaces, only the one with the 0 index will be used. Thus, the area of the decal will differ from the initial mesh.

Arguments

const char * path - A new name to be set for the mesh.
bool force_load - Force flag.
- If 1 is specified, the mesh with the new name will be loaded immediately with the unique flag set to 0.
- If 0 is specified, only the mesh name will be updated.

void setMeshName ( const char * name ) #

Sets a name for the mesh.

Arguments

const char * name - A name to be set for the mesh.

const char * getMeshName ( ) const#

Returns the name of the mesh used as a base for the decal.

Return value

The mesh name.

void setRadius ( float radius ) #

Sets the new height of the decal projection box along the Z axis.

Arguments

float radius - The height of the decal projection box along the Z axis, in units.

float getRadius ( ) const#

Returns the current height of the decal projection box along the Z axis.

Return value

The height of the decal projection box along the Z axis, in units.

void loadMesh ( const char * path, bool unique = 0 ) #

Loads a mesh for the current mesh from the file. This function doesn't change the mesh name.

Arguments

const char * path - The name of the mesh file.
Notice
The mesh should contain a single surface. In case if the mesh contains several surfaces, only the one with the 0 index will be used. Thus, the area of the decal will differ from the initial mesh.
bool unique - Unique flag used when you create several objects out of a single .mesh file:
- 0 - An instance of source mesh geometry is created. If the source geometry is changed at runtime, its instances will be changed as well.
- 1 - A copy of source mesh geometry is created and changes made to the source geometry do not affect the mesh.

int saveMesh ( const char * path ) const#

Saves the decal mesh into a file.

Arguments

const char * path - A name of the mesh file.

Return value

1 if the mesh is saved successfully; otherwise, 0.

static int type ( ) #

Returns a DecalMesh type identifier.

Return value

Type identifier.
