TextureStage

class TextureStage

Bases: TypedWritableReferenceCount

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.

This is specially helpful for cards that do not support more than n stages of multi-texturing.

bool get_saved_result(void) const: Returns the current setting of the saved_result flag. See set_saved_result().

int get_sort(void) const: Returns the sort order of this texture stage.

InternalName *get_texcoord_name(void) const: See set_texcoord_name. The default is InternalName::get_texcoord().

bool involves_color_scale(void) const: Returns true if the TextureStage is affected by the setting of the current ColorScaleAttrib, false otherwise.

bool is_fixed_function(void) const: Returns true if the TextureStage is relevant to the classic fixed function pipeline. This excludes texture stages such as normal mapping and the like.

void output(std::ostream &out) const: Just a single line output

void set_alpha_scale(int alpha_scale)

Sets an additional factor that will scale the alpha component 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.

Specifies any of the CombineMode values that represent a one-parameter operation. Specifically, this is CM_replace only.

Specifies any of the CombineMode values that represent a two-parameter operation. Specifically, this is everything except for CM_replace and CM_interpolate.

void set_mode(TextureStage::Mode mode): Set the mode of this texture stage

void set_name(std::string const &name): Changes the name of this texture stage

void set_priority(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.

void set_rgb_scale(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.

void set_saved_result(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.

void set_sort(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.

void set_tex_view_offset(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.

void set_texcoord_name(InternalName *name)

void set_texcoord_name(std::string const &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.

bool uses_color(void) const: Returns true if the TextureStage makes use of whatever color is specified in set_color(), false otherwise.

bool uses_last_saved_result(void) const: Returns true if the TextureStage makes use of the CS_primary_color combine source.

bool uses_primary_color(void) const: Returns true if the TextureStage makes use of the CS_primary_color combine source.

void write(std::ostream &out, int indent_level = 0) const: Writes the details of this stage
