Detailed Description

Resource holding data about 3D mesh.

Remarks: This class holds the data used to represent a discrete 3-dimensional object. Mesh data usually contains more than just vertices and triangle information; it also includes references to materials (and the faces which use them), level-of-detail reduction information, convex hull definition, skeleton/bones information, keyframe animation etc. However, it is important to note the emphasis on the word 'discrete' here. This class does not cover the large-scale sprawling geometry found in level / landscape data.

: Multiple world objects can (indeed should) be created from a single mesh object - see the Entity class for more info. The mesh object will have it's own default material properties, but potentially each world instance may wish to customise the materials from the original. When the object is instantiated into a scene node, the mesh material properties will be taken by default but may be changed. These properties are actually held at the SubMesh level since a single mesh may have parts with different materials.

: As described above, because the mesh may have sections of differing material properties, a mesh is inherently a compound construct, consisting of one or more SubMesh objects. However, it strongly 'owns' it's SubMeshes such that they are loaded / unloaded at the same time. This is contrary to the approach taken to hierarchically related (but loosely owned) scene nodes, where data is loaded / unloaded separately. Note also that mesh sub-sections (when used in an instantiated object) share the same scene node as the parent.

		const String &	group,
		VaoManager *	vaoManager,
		bool	isManual = `false`,

Member Function Documentation

◆ _getLodValueArray()

const LodValueArray* Ogre::Mesh::_getLodValueArray ( ) const

inline

◆ _getVaoManager()

VaoManager* Ogre::Mesh::_getVaoManager ( ) const

inline

will return the vao manager that this mesh will use for creating and destroying array objects

◆ _notifySkeleton()

void Ogre::Mesh::_notifySkeleton ( v1::SkeletonPtr & pSkel )

Internal notification, used to tell the Mesh which Skeleton to use without loading it.

Remarks: This is only here for unusual situation where you want to manually set up a Skeleton. Best to let OGRE deal with this, don't call it yourself unless you really know what you're doing.

◆ _setBoundingSphereRadius()

void Ogre::Mesh::_setBoundingSphereRadius ( Real radius )

Manually set the bounding radius.

Remarks: Calling this method is required when building manual meshes now, because OGRE can no longer update the bounds for you, because it cannot necessarily read vertex data back from the vertex buffers which this mesh uses (they very well might be write-only, and even if they are not, reading data from a hardware buffer is a bottleneck).

◆ _setBounds()

void Ogre::Mesh::_setBounds	(	const Aabb &	bounds,
		bool	pad = `true`
	)

Manually set the bounding box for this Mesh.

Remarks: Calling this method is required when building manual meshes now, because OGRE can no longer update the bounds for you, because it cannot necessarily read vertex data back from the vertex buffers which this mesh uses (they very well might be write-only, and even if they are not, reading data from a hardware buffer is a bottleneck).

Parameters

pad	If true, a certain padding will be added to the bounding box to separate it from the mesh

◆ _setHashForCaches()

void Ogre::Mesh::_setHashForCaches ( const uint64 hash[2] )

Explicitly set a hash for caches. See Mesh::getHashForCaches.

◆ _setLodInfo()

void Ogre::Mesh::_setLodInfo ( unsigned short numLevels )

Internal methods for loading LOD, do not use.

Referenced by Ogre::Lod0Stripifier::StripLod0Vertices().

◆ _setVaoManager()

void Ogre::Mesh::_setVaoManager ( VaoManager * vaoManager )

inline

will manually set the vao manager the mesh will use when it loads.

setting this when the mesh is already loaded will cause a crash on unload, use with caution!

◆ _updateBoundsFromVertexBuffers()

void Ogre::Mesh::_updateBoundsFromVertexBuffers ( bool pad = false )

Automatically update the bounding radius and bounding box for this Mesh.

Remarks: Calling this method is required when building manual meshes. However it is recommended to use _setBounds and _setBoundingSphereRadius instead, because the vertex buffer may not have a shadow copy in the memory. Reading back the buffer from video memory is very slow!

Parameters

pad	If true, a certain padding will be added to the bounding box to separate it from the mesh

◆ addBoneAssignment()

void Ogre::Mesh::addBoneAssignment ( const VertexBoneAssignment & vertBoneAssign )

Assigns a vertex to a bone with a given weight, for skeletal animation.

Remarks: This method is only valid after calling setSkeletonName. Since this is a one-off process there exists only 'addBoneAssignment' and 'clearBoneAssignments' methods, no 'editBoneAssignment'. You should not need to modify bone assignments during rendering (only the positions of bones) and OGRE reserves the right to do some internal data reformatting of this information, depending on render system requirements.

: This method is for assigning weights to the shared geometry of the Mesh. To assign weights to the per-SubMesh geometry, see the equivalent methods on SubMesh.

◆ arrangeEfficient()

void Ogre::Mesh::arrangeEfficient	(	bool	halfPos,
		bool	halfTexCoords,
		bool	qTangents
	)

Converts this SubMesh to an efficient arrangement.

See Mesh::importV1 for an explanation on the parameters.

See also: dearrangeEfficientToInefficient to perform the opposite operation.

◆ clearBoneAssignments()

void Ogre::Mesh::clearBoneAssignments ( )

Removes all bone assignments for this mesh.

Remarks: This method is for modifying weights to the shared geometry of the Mesh. To assign weights to the per-SubMesh geometry, see the equivalent methods on SubMesh.

◆ clone()

MeshPtr Ogre::Mesh::clone	(	const String &	newName,
		const String &	newGroup = `BLANKSTRING`,
		int	vertexBufferType = `-1`,
		int	indexBufferType = `-1`
	)

Makes a copy of this mesh object and gives it a new name.

Remarks: This is useful if you want to tweak an existing mesh without affecting the original one. The newly cloned mesh is registered with the MeshManager under the new name.

Parameters

newName	The name to give the clone.
newGroup	Optional name of the new group to assign the clone to; if you leave this blank, the clone will be assigned to the same group as this Mesh.
vertexBufferType	See BufferType. Must be set to a valid BufferType. Pass a negative value to keep the same type of the original buffer being cloned.
indexBufferType	See BufferType. Must be set to a valid BufferType. Pass a negative value to keep the same type of the original buffer being cloned.

◆ copy()

void Ogre::Mesh::copy	(	const MeshPtr &	destination,
		int	vertexBufferType = `-1`,
		int	indexBufferType = `-1`
	)

Will copy this mesh into the destination mesh.

Remarks: similar to clone however will copy into a mesh you define rather than creating one for you.

Parameters

destination	The mesh that will be the destination for the copy of *this
vertexBufferType	See BufferType. Must be set to a valid BufferType. Pass a negative value to keep the same type of the original buffer being cloned.
indexBufferType	See BufferType. Must be set to a valid BufferType. Pass a negative value to keep the same type of the original buffer being cloned.

◆ createSubMesh()

SubMesh* Ogre::Mesh::createSubMesh ( size_t index = ~0u )

Creates a new SubMesh.

Remarks: Method for manually creating geometry for the mesh. Note - use with extreme caution - you must be sure that you have set up the geometry properly.

Parameters

index Optional param that will insert the submesh at the specified index. This should be less than getNumSubMeshes(), otherwise it indicates the new submesh will simply be appended to the submesh list.

◆ dearrangeToInefficient()

void Ogre::Mesh::dearrangeToInefficient ( )

Reverts the effects from arrangeEfficient by converting all 16-bit half float back to 32-bit float; and QTangents to Normal, Tangent + Reflection representation, which are more compatible for doing certain operations vertex operations in the CPU.

◆ destroySubMesh()

void Ogre::Mesh::destroySubMesh ( unsigned index )

Destroy a SubMesh with the given index.

Note: This will invalidate the contents of any existing Entity, or any other object that is referring to the SubMesh list. Entity will detect this and reinitialise, but it is still a disruptive action.

◆ getAabb()

const Aabb& Ogre::Mesh::getAabb ( ) const

Get the axis-aligned bounding box for this mesh.

◆ getBoundingSphereRadius()

Real Ogre::Mesh::getBoundingSphereRadius ( ) const

Gets the radius of the bounding sphere surrounding this mesh.

◆ getHashForCaches()

const uint64* Ogre::Mesh::getHashForCaches ( ) const

inline

Returns an array of [2] containing a hash for use in caches.

A value of { 0, 0 } should be treated as not initialized.

How this cache is calculated is unknown and could just be a filesystem timestamp rather than a checksum.

When callers see that: getCacheHash()[i] != savedHash[i]

they should treat as if the mesh has changed and the cache entry became stale

BufferType Ogre::Mesh::getIndexBufferDefaultType ( ) const

inline

Gets the usage setting for this meshes index buffers.

◆ getLodIndex()

uint16 Ogre::Mesh::getLodIndex ( Real value ) const

Note: The value passed in is the 'transformed' value. If you are dealing with an original source value (e.g. distance), use LodStrategy::transformUserValue to turn this into a lookup value.

◆ getLodStrategyName()

const String& Ogre::Mesh::getLodStrategyName ( ) const

inline

Returns the name of the Lod strategy the user lod values have been calibrated for.

◆ getNumLodLevels()

uint16 Ogre::Mesh::getNumLodLevels ( ) const

inline

Gets the usage setting for this meshes vertex buffers.

◆ hasIndependentShadowMappingVaos()

bool Ogre::Mesh::hasIndependentShadowMappingVaos ( ) const

Returns true if the shadow mapping buffers do not just reference the real buffers, but are rather their own separate set of optimized geometry.

◆ hasSkeleton()

bool Ogre::Mesh::hasSkeleton ( ) const

inline

Returns true if this Mesh has a linked Skeleton.

◆ hasValidShadowMappingVaos()

bool Ogre::Mesh::hasValidShadowMappingVaos ( ) const

Returns true if the mesh is ready for rendering with valid shadow mapping Vaos Otherwise prepareForShadowMapping must be called on this mesh.

◆ importV1()

void Ogre::Mesh::importV1	(	v1::Mesh *	mesh,
		bool	halfPos,
		bool	halfTexCoords,
		bool	qTangents,
		bool	halfPose = `true`
	)

Imports a v1 mesh to this mesh, with optional optimization conversions.

This mesh must be in unloaded state. Resulting mesh would be non-reloadable, use MeshManager::createByImportingV1 to create mesh that will survive device lost event.

Remarks: The vertex stream will be converted to a single interleaved buffer; i.e. if the original mesh had 3 vertex buffers: [1] = POSITION, POSITION, POSITION, POSITION, ... [2] = NORMALS, NORMALS, NORMALS, NORMALS, ... [3] = UV, UV, UV, UV, ... then the v2 mesh will have only 1 vertex buffer: [1] = POSITION NORMALS UV, POS NORM UV, POS NORM UV, POS NORM UV, ...

Parameters

mesh	The source v1 mesh to convert from. You can unload or delete this pointer afterwards.
halfPos	True if you want to convert the position data to VET_HALF4 format. Recommended on desktop to reduce memory and bandwidth requirements. Rarely the extra precision is needed. Unfortuntately on mobile, not all ES2 devices support VET_HALF4.
halfTexCoords	True if you want to convert the position data to VET_HALF2 or VET_HALF4 format. Same recommendations as halfPos.
qTangents	True if you want to generate tangent and reflection information (modifying the original v1 mesh) and convert this data to a QTangent, requiring VET_SHORT4_SNORM (8 bytes vs 28 bytes to store normals, tangents and reflection). Needs much less space, trading for more ALU ops in the vertex shader for decoding the QTangent. Highly recommended on both desktop and mobile if you need tangents (i.e. normal mapping).
halfPose	True if you want the pose buffer to have pixel format PF_FLOAT16_RGBA which uses significantly less memory. Otherwise it is created with pixel format PF_FLOAT32_RGBA. Rarely the extra precision is needed.

◆ isIndexBufferShadowed()

bool Ogre::Mesh::isIndexBufferShadowed ( ) const

inline

Gets whether or not this meshes index buffers are shadowed.

◆ isVertexBufferShadowed()

bool Ogre::Mesh::isVertexBufferShadowed ( ) const

inline

Gets whether or not this meshes vertex buffers are shadowed.

◆ nameSubMesh()

void Ogre::Mesh::nameSubMesh	(	const String &	name,
		unsigned	index
	)

Gives a name to a SubMesh. Note, only first 65536 submeshes could be named.

◆ prepareForShadowMapping()

void Ogre::Mesh::prepareForShadowMapping ( bool forceSameBuffers )

Referenced by Ogre::Lod0Stripifier::StripLod0Vertices().

◆ removeLodLevels()

void Ogre::Mesh::removeLodLevels ( )

Internal methods for loading LOD, do not use.

Removes all LOD data from this Mesh.

◆ setIndexBufferPolicy()

void Ogre::Mesh::setIndexBufferPolicy	(	BufferType	bufferType,
		bool	shadowBuffer = `false`
	)

Sets the policy for the index buffers to be used when loading this Mesh.

See also: setVertexBufferPolicy

◆ setLodStrategyName()

void Ogre::Mesh::setLodStrategyName ( const String & name )

inline

◆ setSkeletonName()

void Ogre::Mesh::setSkeletonName ( const String & skelName )

Calculates.

Remarks: Calling this method is required when building manual meshes. However it is recommended to use _setBounds and _setBoundingSphereRadius instead, because the vertex buffer may not have a shadow copy in the memory. Reading back the buffer from video memory is very slow! Sets the name of the skeleton this Mesh uses for animation.; Meshes can optionally be assigned a skeleton which can be used to animate the mesh through bone assignments. The default is for the Mesh to use no skeleton. Calling this method with a valid skeleton filename will cause the skeleton to be loaded if it is not already (a single skeleton can be shared by many Mesh objects).

Parameters

skelName The name of the .skeleton file to use, or an empty string to use no skeleton

◆ setVertexBufferPolicy()

void Ogre::Mesh::setVertexBufferPolicy	(	BufferType	bufferType,
		bool	shadowBuffer = `false`
	)

Sets the policy for the vertex buffers to be used when loading this Mesh.

Remarks: By default, when loading the Mesh, immutable buffers will be used where possible in order to improve rendering performance. However, such buffers cannot be manipulated on the fly by CPU code (although shader code can). If you wish to use the CPU to modify these buffers, you should call this method. Note, however, that it only takes effect after the Mesh has been reloaded. Note that you still have the option of manually repacing the buffers in this mesh with your own if you see fit too, in which case you don't need to call this method since it only affects buffers created by the mesh itself.

: You can define the approach to a Mesh by changing the default parameters to MeshManager::load if you wish; this means the Mesh is loaded with those options the first time instead of you having to reload the mesh after changing these options.

Parameters

bufferType	The buffer type flags, which by default is BT_IMMUTABLE
shadowBuffer	If set to `true`, the vertex buffers will be created with a system memory shadow buffer. You should set this if you want to be able to read from the buffer, because reading from a hardware buffer is a no-no.

◆ unnameSubMesh()

void Ogre::Mesh::unnameSubMesh ( const String & name )

Removes a name from a SubMesh.

Member Data Documentation

◆ msOptimizeForShadowMapping

bool Ogre::Mesh::msOptimizeForShadowMapping

static

When this bool is false, prepareForShadowMapping will use the same Vaos for both regular and shadow mapping rendering.

When it's true, it will calculate an optimized version to speed up shadow map rendering (uses a bit more GPU VRAM). Large meshes can take long to optimize thus it is recommended to perform this offline and save it into the mesh file. It's off by default.

See also: Ogre::Mesh::msOptimizeForShadowMapping for the v2 version; Ogre::v1::Mesh::msOptimizeForShadowMapping for the v1 version

◆ msUseTimestampAsHash

bool Ogre::Mesh::msUseTimestampAsHash

static

If a mesh file didn't save hash information (see Mesh::getHashForCaches) and msUseTimestampAsHash == true; then we use the file last modified timestamp as hash (it's better than nothing).

By default this is disabled since it's often not needed and can't hurt loading times with unnecessary disk access
