		const String &	groupName,
		void *	controlPointBuffer,
		VertexDeclaration *	declaration,
		size_t	width,
		size_t	height,
		size_t	uMaxSubdivisionLevel = `(size_t) PatchSurface::AUTO_LEVEL`,

		HardwareBuffer::Usage	ibUsage = `HardwareBuffer::HBU_DYNAMIC_WRITE_ONLY`,
		bool	vbUseShadow = `true`,
		bool	ibUseShadow = `true`
	)

Creates a Bezier patch based on an array of control vertices.

Parameters

name	The name to give the newly created mesh.
groupName	The name of the resource group to assign the mesh to
controlPointBuffer	A pointer to a buffer containing the vertex data which defines control points of the curves rather than actual vertices. Note that you are expected to provide not just position information, but potentially normals and texture coordinates too. The format of the buffer is defined in the VertexDeclaration parameter
declaration	VertexDeclaration describing the contents of the buffer. Note this declaration must only draw on buffer source 0!
width	Specifies the width of the patch in control points. Note this parameter must greater than or equal to 3.
height	Specifies the height of the patch in control points. Note this parameter must greater than or equal to 3.
uMaxSubdivisionLevel,vMaxSubdivisionLevel	If you want to manually set the top level of subdivision, do it here, otherwise let the system decide.
visibleSide	Determines which side of the patch (or both) triangles are generated for.
vbUsage	Vertex buffer usage flags. Recommend the default since vertex buffer should be static.
ibUsage	Index buffer usage flags. Recommend the default since index buffer should be dynamic to change levels but not readable.
vbUseShadow	Flag to determine if a shadow buffer is generated for the vertex buffer. See HardwareBuffer for full details.
ibUseShadow	Flag to determine if a shadow buffer is generated for the index buffer. See HardwareBuffer for full details.

		const Plane &	plane,
		Real	width,
		Real	height,
		Real	curvature,

		bool	vertexShadowBuffer = `true`,
		bool	indexShadowBuffer = `true`,
		uint32	ysegmentsToKeep = `std::numeric_limits< uint32 >::max()`
	)

Creates a plane, which because of it's texture coordinates looks like a curved surface, useful for skies in a skybox.

Parameters

name	The name to give the resulting mesh
groupName	The name of the resource group to assign the mesh to
plane	The orientation of the plane and distance from the origin
width	The width of the plane in world coordinates
height	The height of the plane in world coordinates
curvature	The curvature of the plane. Good values are between 2 and 65. Higher values are more curved leading to a smoother effect, lower values are less curved meaning more distortion at the horizons but a better distance effect.
xsegments	The number of segments to the plane in the x direction
ysegments	The number of segments to the plane in the y direction
normals	If true, normals are created perpendicular to the plane
numTexCoordSets	The number of 2D texture coordinate sets created - by default the corners are created to be the corner of the texture.
uTile	The number of times the texture should be repeated in the u direction
vTile	The number of times the texture should be repeated in the v direction
upVector	The 'Up' direction of the plane.
orientation	The orientation of the overall sphere that's used to create the illusion
vertexBufferUsage	The usage flag with which the vertex buffer for this plane will be created
indexBufferUsage	The usage flag with which the index buffer for this plane will be created
vertexShadowBuffer	If this flag is set to true, the vertex buffer will be created with a system memory shadow buffer, allowing you to read it back more efficiently than if it is in hardware
indexShadowBuffer	If this flag is set to true, the index buffer will be created with a system memory shadow buffer, allowing you to read it back more efficiently than if it is in hardware
ySegmentsToKeep	The number of segments from the top of the dome downwards to keep. -1 keeps all of them. This can save fillrate if you cannot see much of the sky lower down.

		const String &	groupName,
		ManualResourceLoader *	loader = `0`
	)

Creates a new Mesh specifically for manual definition rather than loading from an object file.

Remarks: Note that once you've defined your mesh, you must call Mesh::_setBounds and Mesh::_setBoundingRadius in order to define the bounds of your mesh. In previous versions of OGRE you could call Mesh::_updateBounds, but OGRE's support of write-only vertex buffers makes this no longer appropriate.

Parameters

name	The name to give the new mesh

		const String &	group,
		bool	isManual = `false`,

		bool	indexBufferShadowed = `true`
	)

Create a new mesh, or retrieve an existing one with the same name if it already exists.

Parameters

vertexBufferUsage	The usage flags with which the vertex buffer(s) will be created

◆ getBoundsPaddingFactor()

Real Ogre::v1::MeshManager::getBoundsPaddingFactor ( )

Gets the factor by which the bounding box of an entity is padded.

Default is 0.01

◆ getByName()

MeshPtr Ogre::v1::MeshManager::getByName	(	const String &	name,
		const String &	groupName = `ResourceGroupManager::AUTODETECT_RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME`
	)

Get a resource by name.

See also: ResourceManager::getResourceByName

◆ getListener()

MeshSerializerListener* Ogre::v1::MeshManager::getListener ( )

Gets the listener used to control mesh loading through the serializer.

◆ getPrepareAllMeshesForShadowVolumes()

bool Ogre::v1::MeshManager::getPrepareAllMeshesForShadowVolumes ( )

Retrieves whether all Meshes should prepare themselves for shadow volumes.

◆ getSingleton()

static MeshManager& Ogre::v1::MeshManager::getSingleton ( )

static

Override standard Singleton retrieval.

Remarks: Why do we do this? Well, it's because the Singleton implementation is in a .h file, which means it gets compiled into anybody who includes it. This is needed for the Singleton template to work, but we actually only want it compiled into the implementation of the class based on the Singleton, not all of them. If we don't change this, we get link errors when trying to use the Singleton-based class from an outside dll.

: This method just delegates to the template version anyway, but the implementation stays in this single compilation unit, preventing link errors.

◆ getSingletonPtr()

static MeshManager* Ogre::v1::MeshManager::getSingletonPtr ( )

static

Override standard Singleton retrieval.

Remarks: Why do we do this? Well, it's because the Singleton implementation is in a .h file, which means it gets compiled into anybody who includes it. This is needed for the Singleton template to work, but we actually only want it compiled into the implementation of the class based on the Singleton, not all of them. If we don't change this, we get link errors when trying to use the Singleton-based class from an outside dll.

		bool	vertexBufferShadowed = `true`,
		bool	indexBufferShadowed = `true`
	)

Loads a mesh from a file, making it immediately available for use.

Note: If the model has already been created (prepared or loaded), the existing instance will be returned.

Remarks: Ogre loads model files from it's own proprietary format called .mesh. This is because having a single file format is better for runtime performance, and we also have control over pre-processed data (such as collision boxes, LOD reductions etc).

Parameters

filename	The name of the .mesh file
groupName	The name of the resource group to assign the mesh to
vertexBufferUsage	The usage flags with which the vertex buffer(s) will be created
indexBufferUsage	The usage flags with which the index buffer(s) created for this mesh will be created with.

indexBufferShadowed	If true, the index buffers will be shadowed by system memory copies for faster read access

◆ loadResource()

void Ogre::v1::MeshManager::loadResource ( Resource * res )

overridevirtual

See also: ManualResourceLoader::loadResource

Implements Ogre::ManualResourceLoader.

		bool	vertexBufferShadowed = `true`,

This does the IO in advance of the call to load().

Note: If the model has already been created (prepared or loaded), the existing instance will be returned.

Remarks: Ogre loads model files from it's own proprietary format called .mesh. This is because having a single file format is better for runtime performance, and we also have control over pre-processed data (such as collision boxes, LOD reductions etc).
