TextureStage Class Reference

Defines the properties of a named stage of the multitexture pipeline. The TextureAttrib will associated a number of these stages with Texture objects, and the GSG will render geometry by sorting all of the currently active TextureStages in order and then issuing the appropriate rendering calls to activate them.

◆ setName()

setName ( str  name)

Changes the name of this texture stage.

◆ setPriority()

setPriority ( int  priority)

Changes the relative importance of the texture associated with this stage relative to the other texture stages that are applied simultaneously.

This is unrelated to set_sort(), which controls the order in which multiple textures are applied. The priority number is used to decide which of the requested textures are to be selected for rendering when more textures are requested than the hardware will support. The highest-priority n textures are selected for rendering, and then rendered in order by their sort factor.

◆ setRgbScale()

setRgbScale ( int  rgb_scale)

Sets an additional factor that will scale all three r, g, b components after the texture has been applied. This is used only when the mode is CM_combine.

The only legal values are 1, 2, or 4.

◆ setSavedResult()

setSavedResult ( bool  saved_result)

Sets the saved_result flag. When this is true, the output of this stage will be supplied as the "last_saved_result" source for any future stages, until the next TextureStage with a saved_result set true is encountered.

This can be used to reuse the results of this texture stage as input to more than one stage later in the pipeline.

The last texture in the pipeline (the one with the highest sort value) should not have this flag set.

◆ setSort()

setSort ( int  sort)

Changes the order in which the texture associated with this stage is rendered relative to the other texture stages. When geometry is rendered with multiple textures, the textures are rendered in order from the lowest sort number to the highest sort number.

Also see set_priority(), which is used to select the most important textures for rendering when some must be omitted because of hardware limitations.

◆ setTexcoordName() [1/2]

setTexcoordName ( InternalName  name)

Indicate which set of UV's this texture stage will use. Geometry may have any number of associated UV sets, each of which must have a unique name.

◆ setTexcoordName() [2/2]

setTexcoordName ( str  texcoord_name)

Indicate which set of UV's this texture stage will use. Geometry may have any number of associated UV sets, each of which must have a unique name.

◆ setTexViewOffset()

setTexViewOffset ( int  tex_view_offset)

Sets the tex_view_offset value. This is used only when a special multiview texture is bound to the TextureStage, and it selects the particular view of the texture that is to be used.

This value is added to the similar parameter on DisplayRegion to derive the final texture view index that is selected for rendering.

◆ usesColor()

bool usesColor ( )

Returns true if the TextureStage makes use of whatever color is specified in set_color(), false otherwise.

◆ usesLastSavedResult()

bool usesLastSavedResult ( )

Returns true if the TextureStage makes use of the CS_primary_color combine source.

◆ usesPrimaryColor()

bool usesPrimaryColor ( )

Returns true if the TextureStage makes use of the CS_primary_color combine source.

◆ write()

write ( Ostream  out)

Writes the details of this stage.
