PolylightEffect

from panda3d.core import PolylightEffect

class PolylightEffect

Bases:

Bases: RenderEffect

A PolylightEffect can be used on a node to define a LightGroup for that node. A LightGroup contains PolylightNodes which are essentially nodes that add color to the polygons of a model based on distance. PolylightNode is a cheap way to get lighting effects specially for night scenes

enum ContribType

enumerator CT_proximal = 0

enumerator CT_all = 1

class LightGroup

Bases:

alias of pvector_NodePath

addLight(newlight: NodePath) → RenderEffect: Add a PolylightNode object to this effect and return a new effect

static getClassType() → TypeHandle

getContrib() → ContribType: Returns CT_all or CT_proximal

getEffectCenter() → LPoint3: Return the value of the _effect_center

getWeight() → float: Get the weight value

hasLight(light: NodePath) → bool: Returns true if the indicated light is listed in the PolylightEffect, false otherwise.

static make() → RenderEffect: Constructs a new PolylightEffect object.

static make(weight: float, contrib: ContribType, effect_center: LPoint3) → RenderEffect: Constructs a new PolylightEffect object.

static make(weight: float, contrib: ContribType, effect_center: LPoint3, lights: LightGroup) → RenderEffect: Constructs a new PolylightEffect object.

removeLight(newlight: NodePath) → RenderEffect: Remove a light from this effect. Return the new updated effect

setContrib(c: ContribType) → RenderEffect: Set Contrib Type and return a new effect… the reason this couldnt be done through make was because that would return a new effect without the lightgroup which is static and cant be accessed Here, we just pass that to the make

setEffectCenter(ec: LPoint3) → RenderEffect: Set weight and return a new effect… the reason this couldnt be done through make was because that would return a new effect without the lightgroup which is static and cant be accessed Here, we just pass that to the make

setWeight(w: float) → RenderEffect: Set weight and return a new effect… the reason this couldnt be done through make was because that would return a new effect without the lightgroup which is static and cant be accessed Here, we just pass that to the make
