vl::fvec4 vlut::makeColor

(

unsigned int

color )

[inline]

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeIcosphere	(	const vl::vec3 &	pos,
		vl::Real	diameter = 1,
		int	detail = 2,
		bool	remove_doubles = true
	)

Creates a sphere by iteratively subdividing an icosahedron.

detail can be between 0 ( = icosahedron) and 8 (extremely detailed sphere) a value of 2 yelds already very good results.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeCylinder	(	const vl::vec3 &	origin,
		vl::Real	diameter = 1,
		vl::Real	height = 1,
		int	phi = 20,
		int	theta = 2,
		bool	top = true,
		bool	bottom = true
	)

Creates a cylinder.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeUVSphere	(	const vl::vec3 &	origin,
		vl::Real	diameter = 1,
		int	phi = 20,
		int	theta = 20
	)

Creates a uv sphere.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeTorus	(	const vl::vec3 &	origin,
		vl::Real	diameter = 1,
		vl::Real	thickness = 0.2,
		int	phi = 10,
		int	theta = 10,
		float	tex_coords = 0.0f
	)

Creates torus. This function generates also appropriate normals.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeCone	(	const vl::vec3 &	origin,
		vl::Real	diameter = 1,
		vl::Real	height = 1,
		int	phi = 10,
		bool	bottom = true
	)

Creates a cone.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makePyramid	(	const vl::vec3 &	origin,
		vl::Real	side = 1,
		vl::Real	height = 1
	)

Creates a pyramid.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeBox	(	const vl::vec3 &	origin,
		vl::Real	xside = 1,
		vl::Real	yside = 1,
		vl::Real	zside = 1,
		bool	tex_coords = true
	)

Creates a box.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeBox	(	const vl::vec3 &	min,
		const vl::vec3 &	max,
		bool	tex_coords = true
	)

Creates a box.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeBox	(	const vl::AABB &	aabb,
		bool	tex_coords = true
	)

Creates a box.

ref< Geometry > vlut::makeGrid	(	const vl::vec3 &	origin,
		vl::Real	xside,
		vl::Real	zside,
		int	x,
		int	z,
		bool	gen_texcoords = false,
		vl::fvec2	uv0 = vl::fvec2(),
		vl::fvec2	uv1 = vl::fvec2()
	)

Creates a 2D grid.

Note:

if tex_coord_scale_u and tex_coord_scale_v are both == 0 no texture coordinate is generated

vl::ref<vl::Geometry> vlut::makeCapsule	(	float	radius,
		float	height,
		int	segments,
		ECapsuleCap	top_cap,
		ECapsuleCap	bottom_cap,
		const vl::fvec4 &	top_col,
		const vl::fvec4 &	bottom_col
	)
