Method Detail

createRawTriangleArray

public TriangleArray createRawTriangleArray(int vertexFormat)

Create non-indexed, vertex-based triangle array with geometry contained in this object.

Parameters:

vertexFormat -

Returns:

the created TriangleArray

createIndexedTriangleArray

public IndexedTriangleArray createIndexedTriangleArray(int vertexFormat)

Create indexed triangle array with geometry contained in this object. It is best to call weldVertices (if needed) and then optimizeTrianglesForCache before calling this method.

Parameters:

vertexFormat -

Returns:

the created IndexedTriangleArray

createContinousStripArray

public IndexedTriangleStripArray createContinousStripArray(int vertexFormat)

Create indexed triangle strip array with geometry contained in this object. It is best to call weldVertices (if needed) before calling this method. Strip array will have one long strip, with substrips connected by degenerate triangles. It uses createContinousStrip method.

Parameters:

vertexFormat -

Returns:

the created IndexedTriangleStripArray

See Also:

GeometryInfo.createContinousStrip()

createChunkedStripArray

public IndexedTriangleStripArray createChunkedStripArray(int vertexFormat)

Create indexed triangle strip array with geometry contained in this object. It is best to call weldVertices (if needed) before calling this method. Strip array will have multiple short strips, possibly even single-triangle, so it is not very fast solution. It is better to create continous strip array or mixed array (when it will be implemented).

Parameters:

vertexFormat -

Returns:

the created IndexedTriangleStripArray
