Detailed Description

class for holding data describing a dynamic point light.

Jimcpp supports point lights, spot lights, and directional lights.

Member Data Documentation

◆ Attenuation

core::vector3df jpp::video::SLight::Attenuation

Attenuation factors (constant, linear, quadratic)

Changes the light strength fading over distance. Can also be altered by setting the radius, Attenuation will change to (0,1.f/radius,0). Can be overridden after radius was set.

◆ DiffuseColor

SColorf jpp::video::SLight::DiffuseColor

Diffuse color emitted by the light.

This is the primary color you want to set.

◆ Direction

core::vector3df jpp::video::SLight::Direction

Read-ONLY! Direction of the light.

If Type is ELT_POINT, it is ignored. Changed via light scene node's rotation.

◆ Position

core::vector3df jpp::video::SLight::Position

Read-ONLY! Position of the light.

If Type is ELT_DIRECTIONAL, it is ignored. Changed via light scene node's position.

◆ Radius

f32 jpp::video::SLight::Radius

Read-ONLY! Radius of light. Everything within this radius will be lighted.

On OpenGL light doesn't stop at radius. To get same light as in OpenGL in other drivers do set the radius to a large value like sqrt(FLT_MAX) and then set the Attenuation afterwards.

◆ SpecularColor

SColorf jpp::video::SLight::SpecularColor

Specular color emitted by the light.

For details how to use specular highlights, see SMaterial::Shininess
