Detailed Description

Level of detail strategy based on distance from camera.

This is an abstract base class for DistanceLodBoxStrategy and DistanceLodSphereStrategy.

Remarks

The purpose of the reference view is to ensure a consistent experience for all users. Monitors of different resolutions and aspect ratios will each have different results for the distance queries.

It depends on gameplay testing. If all testers had 16:9 monitors and 110° FOV, then that's the value you should enter (to ensure as much as possible the experience stays consistent for all other users who don't have a 16:9 monitor and/or use a different FOV).

If all your testers had 4:3 monitors, then enter a 4:3 resolution.

If all your testers had varying resolutions or you just didn't care, then this feature is useless for you and should be disabled (default: disabled).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DistanceLodStrategyBase()

Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::DistanceLodStrategyBase

(

const String &

name

)

Default constructor.

Member Function Documentation

getBaseValue()

Real Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::getBaseValue ( ) const

overridevirtual

Get the value of the first (highest) level of detail.

Implements Ogre::LodStrategy.

getSquaredDepth()

virtual Real Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::getSquaredDepth ( const MovableObject *  movableObject, const Ogre::Camera *  camera  ) const

pure virtual

Get the squared depth from camera to the LOD object.

Implemented in Ogre::DistanceLodSphereStrategy, and Ogre::DistanceLodBoxStrategy.

isReferenceViewEnabled()

bool Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::isReferenceViewEnabled

(

)

const

Determine if use of the reference view is enabled.

lodUpdateImpl()

void Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::lodUpdateImpl ( const size_t  numNodes, ObjectData  t, const Camera *  camera, Real  bias  ) const

overridevirtual

Implements Ogre::LodStrategy.

setReferenceView()

void Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::setReferenceView	(	Real	viewportWidth,
		Real	viewportHeight,
		Radian	fovY
	)

Sets the reference view upon which the distances were based.

Note

This automatically enables use of the reference view.

There is no corresponding get method for these values as they are not saved, but used to compute a reference value.

setReferenceViewEnabled()

void Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::setReferenceViewEnabled

(

bool

value

)

Enables to disables use of the reference view.

Note

Do not enable use of the reference view before setting it.

transformBias()

Real Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::transformBias ( Real  factor ) const

overridevirtual

Transform LOD bias so it only needs to be multiplied by the LOD value.

Implements Ogre::LodStrategy.

transformUserValue()

Real Ogre::DistanceLodStrategyBase::transformUserValue ( Real  userValue ) const

overridevirtual

Transform user supplied value to internal value.

Remarks

By default, performs no transformation.

Do not throw exceptions for invalid values here, as the LOD strategy may be changed such that the values become valid.

Reimplemented from Ogre::LodStrategy.
