Detailed Description

Defines an instance of a discrete, movable object based on a Mesh.

Remarks
Ogre generally divides renderable objects into 2 groups, discrete (separate) and relatively small objects which move around the world, and large, sprawling geometry which makes up generally immovable scenery, aka 'level geometry'.
The Mesh and SubMesh classes deal with the definition of the geometry used by discrete movable objects. Entities are actual instances of objects based on this geometry in the world. Therefore there is usually a single set Mesh for a car, but there may be multiple entities based on it in the world. Entities are able to override aspects of the Mesh it is defined by, such as changing material properties per instance (so you can have many cars using the same geometry but different textures for example). Because a Mesh is split into SubMeshes for this purpose, the Entity class is a grouping class (much like the Mesh class) and much of the detail regarding individual changes is kept in the SubEntity class. There is a 1:1 relationship between SubEntity instances and the SubMesh instances associated with the Mesh the Entity is based on.
Entity and SubEntity classes are never created directly. Use the createEntity method of the SceneManager (passing a model name) to create one.
Entities are included in the scene by associating them with a SceneNode, using the attachEntity method. See the SceneNode class for full information.
Note
No functions were declared virtual to improve performance.

Try to initialise the Entity from the underlying resources.

Remarks
This method builds the internal structures of the Entity based on it resources (Mesh, Skeleton). This may or may not succeed if the resources it references have been earmarked for background loading, so you should check isInitialised afterwards to see if it was successful.
Parameters
forceReinitialiseIf true, this forces the Entity to tear down it's internal structures and try to rebuild them. Useful if you changed the content of a Mesh or Skeleton at runtime.

Reimplemented in Ogre::v1::BillboardSet, and Ogre::v1::ManualObject.

◆ _restoreManualHardwareResources()

virtual void Ogre::MovableObject::_restoreManualHardwareResources ( )
inlinevirtualinherited

Notifies the movable object that hardware resources should be restored.

Remarks
Called automatically by RenderSystem if hardware resources were lost and can not be restored using some internal mechanism. Among affected resources are nested shadow renderables, ManualObjects, etc.

◆ _updateAnimation()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::_updateAnimation ( void  )

Advanced method to perform all the updates required for an animated entity.

Remarks
You don't normally need to call this, but it's here in case you wish to manually update the animation of an Entity at a specific point in time. Animation will not be updated more than once a frame no matter how many times you call this method.

◆ _updateRenderQueue()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::_updateRenderQueue ( RenderQueue queue,

const Camera lodCamera 
)
virtual

Internal method by which the movable object must add Renderable subclass instances to the rendering queue.

Remarks

Reimplemented from Ogre::MovableObject.

◆ addQueryFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::addQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

As setQueryFlags, except the flags passed as parameters are appended to the existing flags on this object.

◆ addSoftwareAnimationRequest()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::addSoftwareAnimationRequest ( bool  normalsAlso)

Add a request for software animation.

Remarks
Tells the entity to perform animation calculations for skeletal/vertex animations in software, regardless of the current setting of isHardwareAnimationEnabled(). Software animation will be performed any time one or more requests have been made. If 'normalsAlso' is 'true', then the entity will also do software blending on normal vectors, in addition to positions. This advanced method useful for situations in which access to actual mesh vertices is required, such as accurate collision detection or certain advanced shading techniques. When software animation is no longer needed, the caller of this method should always remove the request by calling removeSoftwareAnimationRequest(), passing the same value for 'normalsAlso'.

◆ addVisibilityFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::addVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

As setVisibilityFlags, except the flags passed as parameters are appended to the existing flags on this object.

◆ attachObjectToBone()

TagPoint * Ogre::v1::Entity::attachObjectToBone ( const String boneName,
MovableObject pMovable,
const Quaternion offsetOrientation = Quaternion::IDENTITY,
const Vector3 offsetPosition = Vector3::ZERO 
)

Attaches another object to a certain bone of the skeleton which this entity uses.

Remarks
This method can be used to attach another object to an animated part of this entity, by attaching it to a bone in the skeleton (with an offset if required). As this entity is animated, the attached object will move relative to the bone to which it is attached.
An exception is thrown if the movable object is already attached to the bone, another bone or scenenode. If the entity has no skeleton or the bone name cannot be found then an exception is thrown.
Parameters
boneNameThe name of the bone (in the skeleton) to attach this object
pMovablePointer to the object to attach
offsetOrientationAn adjustment to the orientation of the attached object, relative to the bone.
offsetPositionAn adjustment to the position of the attached object, relative to the bone.
Returns
The TagPoint to which the object has been attached

Useful if you wish to handle AnimationState updates manually.

◆ getSoftwareAnimationNormalsRequests()

int Ogre::v1::Entity::getSoftwareAnimationNormalsRequests ( void  ) const
inline

Returns the number of requests that have been made for software animation of normals.

Remarks
If non-zero, and getSoftwareAnimationRequests() also returns non-zero, then software animation of normals will be performed in updateAnimation regardless of the current setting of isHardwareAnimationEnabled or any internal optimise for eliminate software animation. Currently it is not possible to force software animation of only normals. Consequently this value is always less than or equal to that returned by getSoftwareAnimationRequests(). Requests for software animation of normals are made by calling the addSoftwareAnimationRequest() method with 'true' as the parameter.

◆ getSoftwareAnimationRequests()

int Ogre::v1::Entity::getSoftwareAnimationRequests ( void  ) const
inline

Returns the number of requests that have been made for software animation.

Remarks
If non-zero then software animation will be performed in updateAnimation regardless of the current setting of isHardwareAnimationEnabled or any internal optimise for eliminate software animation. Requests for software animation are made by calling the addSoftwareAnimationRequest() method.

◆ getWorldAabbUpdated()

Aabb Ogre::MovableObject::getWorldAabbUpdated ( )
inherited

Gets the axis aligned box in world space.

Remarks
Unlike getWorldAabb, this function guarantees the cache stays up to date. It is STRONGLY advised against calling this function for a large number of MovableObject. Refactor your queries so that they happen after SceneManager::updateAllBounds() has been called

◆ getWorldRadius()

float Ogre::MovableObject::getWorldRadius ( ) const
inherited

Gets the bounding Radius scaled by max( scale.x, scale.y, scale.z ).

Remarks
Assumes the caches are already updated. Will trigger an assert otherwise. @See getWorldRadiusUpdated if you need the update process to be guaranteed

◆ getWorldRadiusUpdated()

inherited

Gets the bounding Radius scaled by max( scale.x, scale.y, scale.z ).

Remarks
Unlike getWorldRadius, this function guarantees the cache stays up to date. It is STRONGLY advised against calling this function for a large number of MovableObject. Refactor your queries so that they happen after SceneManager::updateAllBounds() has been called

◆ isAttached()

bool Ogre::MovableObject::isAttached ( void  ) const
inlineinherited

Returns true if this object is attached to a Node.

◆ isHardwareAnimationEnabled()

bool Ogre::v1::Entity::isHardwareAnimationEnabled ( void  )

Returns whether or not hardware animation is enabled.

Remarks
Because fixed-function indexed vertex blending is rarely supported by existing graphics cards, hardware animation can only be done if the vertex programs in the materials used to render an entity support it. Therefore, this method will only return true if all the materials assigned to this entity have vertex programs assigned, and all those vertex programs must support 'includes_morph_animation true' if using morph animation, 'includes_pose_animation true' if using pose animation and 'includes_skeletal_animation true' if using skeletal animation.

Also note the the function returns value according to the current active scheme. This is due to the fact that RTSS schemes may be different in their handling of hardware animation.

◆ isInitialised()

bool Ogre::v1::Entity::isInitialised ( void  ) const
inline

Has this Entity been initialised yet?

Remarks
If this returns false, it means this Entity hasn't been completely constructed yet from the underlying resources (Mesh, Skeleton), which probably means they were delay-loaded and aren't available yet. This Entity won't render until it has been successfully initialised, nor will many of the manipulation methods function.

◆ isStatic()

inherited

Checks whether this MovableObject is static. @See setStatic.

◆ isVisible()

bool Ogre::MovableObject::isVisible ( void  ) const

Remarks
Takes into account visibility flags and the setVisible, but not rendering distance.

◆ loadingComplete()

virtual void Ogre::Resource::Listener::loadingComplete ( Resource )
inlinevirtualinherited

Called whenever the resource finishes loading.

Remarks
If a Resource has been marked as background loaded (
See also
Resource::setBackgroundLoaded), the call does not itself occur in the thread which is doing the loading; when loading is complete a response indicator is placed with the ResourceGroupManager, which will then be sent back to the listener as part of the application's primary frame loop thread.

Reimplemented in Ogre::GpuProgramUsage.

◆ preparingComplete()

virtual void Ogre::Resource::Listener::preparingComplete ( Resource )
inlinevirtualinherited

Called whenever the resource finishes preparing (paging into memory).

Remarks
If a Resource has been marked as background loaded (
See also
Resource::setBackgroundLoaded) the call does not itself occur in the thread which is doing the preparing; when preparing is complete a response indicator is placed with the ResourceGroupManager, which will then be sent back to the listener as part of the application's primary frame loop thread.

◆ queryLights()

const LightList & Ogre::MovableObject::queryLights ( void  ) const
inlineinherited

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

The list of lights use to lighting this object.

◆ refreshAvailableAnimationState()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::refreshAvailableAnimationState ( void  )

Updates the internal animation state set to include the latest available animations from the attached skeleton.

Remarks
Use this method if you manually add animations to a skeleton, or have linked the skeleton to another for animation purposes since creating this entity.
Note
If you have called getAnimationState prior to calling this method, the pointers will still remain valid.

◆ removeQueryFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::removeQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

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

◆ removeSoftwareAnimationRequest()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::removeSoftwareAnimationRequest ( bool  normalsAlso)

Removes a request for software animation.

Remarks
Calling this decrements the entity's internal counter of the number of requests for software animation. If the counter is already zero then calling this method throws an exception. The 'normalsAlso' flag if set to 'true' will also decrement the internal counter of number of requests for software animation of normals.

◆ removeVisibilityFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::removeVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

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

◆ setAlwaysUpdateMainSkeleton()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setAlwaysUpdateMainSkeleton ( bool  update)
inline

The skeleton of the main entity will be updated even if the an LOD entity is being displayed.

useful if you have entities attached to the main entity. Otherwise position of attached entities will not be updated.

◆ setCastShadows()

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.

◆ setDatablock() [1/2]

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setDatablock ( HlmsDatablock datablock)

Sets the given HLMS datablock to all SubEntities.

◆ setDatablock() [2/2]

const String groupName = ResourceGroupManager::AUTODETECT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME 
)

Sets the material to use for the whole of this Item.

Remarks
This is a shortcut method to set all the materials for all subentities of this Item. Only use this method is you want to set the same material for all subentities or if you know there is only one. Otherwise call getSubItem() and call the same method on the individual SubItem.

◆ setDefaultQueryFlags()

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

Set the default query flags for all future MovableObject instances.

◆ setDefaultVisibilityFlags()

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

◆ setLightMask()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setLightMask ( uint32  lightMask)
inlineinherited

inlineinherited

Sets a listener for this object.

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

◆ setLocalAabb()

Remarks
This bounding box is in local coordinates.

◆ setMaterial()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setMaterial ( const MaterialPtr material)

Sets the material to use for the whole of this entity.

Remarks
This is a shortcut method to set all the materials for all subentities of this entity. Only use this method is you want to set the same material for all subentities or if you know there is only one. Otherwise call getSubEntity() and call the same method on the individual SubEntity.

◆ setMaterialName()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setMaterialName ( const String name,
const String groupName = ResourceGroupManager::AUTODETECT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME 
)

Sets the material to use for the whole of this entity.

Remarks
This is a shortcut method to set all the materials for all subentities of this entity. Only use this method is you want to set the same material for all subentities or if you know there is only one. Otherwise call getSubEntity() and call the same method on the individual SubEntity.

◆ setName()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setName ( const String name)
inlineinherited

Sets a custom name for this node.

Doesn't have to be unique

◆ setPolygonModeOverrideable()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setPolygonModeOverrideable ( bool  PolygonModeOverrideable)

Sets whether the polygon mode of this entire entity may be overridden by the camera detail settings.

◆ setQueryFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setQueryFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

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.

◆ setRenderingDistance()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderingDistance ( Real  dist)
inlineinherited

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

Parameters
distDistance beyond which the object will not be rendered (the default is FLT_MAX, which means objects are always rendered). Values equal or below zero will be ignored, and cause an assertion in debug mode.

◆ setRenderingMinPixelSize()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setRenderingMinPixelSize ( Real  pixelSize)
inlineinherited

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).

◆ setRenderQueueGroup()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setRenderQueueGroup ( uint8  queueID)
virtual

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.
Valid render queue ids are between 0 & 254 inclusive

Reimplemented from Ogre::MovableObject.

◆ setRenderQueueSubGroup()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setRenderQueueSubGroup ( uint8  subGroup)

Sets the RenderQueue subgroup ID for the whole of this entity.

Remarks
This is a shortcut method to set all the subgroups for all subentities of this entity. Only use this method is you want to set the same subgroup for all subentities or if you know there is only one. Otherwise call getSubEntity() and call the same method on the individual SubEntity.

◆ setShadowRenderingDistance()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setShadowRenderingDistance ( Real  dist)
inlineinherited

Sets the distance at which the object is no longer casting shadows.

Parameters
distDistance beyond which the object will not cast shadows (the default is FLT_MAX, which means objects are always casting shadows). Values equal or below zero will be ignored, and cause an assertion in debug mode.
Note
ShadowRenderingDistance will be clamped to RenderingDistance value
See also
setRenderingDistance

◆ setSkipAnimationStateUpdate()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setSkipAnimationStateUpdate ( bool  skip)
inline

Entity's skeleton's AnimationState will not be automatically updated when set to true.

Useful if you wish to handle AnimationState updates manually.

◆ setStatic()

bool Ogre::MovableObject::setStatic ( bool  bStatic)
inherited

Turns this Node into static or dynamic.

Remarks
Switching between dynamic and static has some overhead and forces to update all static scene when converted to static. So don't do it frequently. Static objects are not updated every frame, only when requested explicitly. Use this feature if you plan to have this object unaltered for a very long times
Note all MovableObjects support switching between static & dynamic after they have been created (eg. InstancedEntity)
Changing this attribute will cause to switch the attribute to our parent node, and as a result, all of its other attached entities. @See Node::setStatic
Returns
True if setStatic made an actual change. False otherwise. Can fail because the object was already static/dynamic, or because switching is not supported

◆ setUpdateBoundingBoxFromSkeleton()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::setUpdateBoundingBoxFromSkeleton ( bool  update)

If true, the skeleton of the entity will be used to update the bounding box for culling.

Useful if you have skeletal animations that move the bones away from the root. Otherwise, the bounding box of the mesh in the binding pose will be used.

Remarks
When true, the bounding box will be generated to only enclose the bones that are used for skinning. Also the resulting bounding box will be expanded by the amount of GetMesh()->getBoneBoundingRadius(). The expansion amount can be changed on the mesh to achieve a better fitting bounding box.

◆ setVisibilityFlags()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setVisibilityFlags ( uint32  flags)
inlineinherited

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 that is applied a binary 'and' with the SceneManager's mask and a compositor node pass. To exclude particular objects from rendering. Changes to reserved visibility flags are ignored (won't take effect).

◆ setVisible()

void Ogre::MovableObject::setVisible ( bool  visible)
inlineinherited

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.

◆ shareSkeletonInstanceWith()

void Ogre::v1::Entity::shareSkeletonInstanceWith ( Entity entity)

Shares the OldSkeletonInstance with the supplied entity.

Note that in order for this to work, both entities must have the same Skeleton.

◆ sharesSkeletonInstance()
