Declaration

type TAbstractPunctualLightNode = class(TAbstractLightNode)

Description

Base class for all "punctual" light nodes (that have a position and/or direction).

Note that even the old VRML 1.0 light nodes inherit from this. Although they interpret some bits differently ("ambientIntensity" < 0 has special meaning). But most of the fields behave identically, they only have different default values.

Description

Methods

Protected function GetProjectionLocationLocal: TVector3; virtual;
 
Protected procedure SetProjectionLocationLocal(const Value: TVector3); virtual;
 
Protected function GetProjectionDirectionLocal: TVector3; virtual;
 
Protected procedure SetProjectionDirectionLocal(const Value: TVector3); virtual;
 
Public procedure CreateNode; override;
 
Public function ProjectionMatrix: TMatrix4; virtual;

Matrices for rendering shadow map from this light. Identity in this class, override for subclasses able to do shadow mapping.

Public function ModelviewMatrix: TMatrix4; virtual;
 
Public function ModelviewRotationMatrix: TMatrix4; virtual;
 
Public function GetProjectorMatrix: TMatrix4;
 
Public procedure GetView(out Pos, Dir, Side, Up: TVector3);
 
Public procedure Box3DDistances(const Box: TBox3D; out MinDistance, MaxDistance: Single); virtual; abstract;

Calculate distances between the given Box and this light source. This is intended to capture the depth distances where the box resides, useful for calculating e.g. depth ranges to capture in the shadow maps. Depending on light source type, various distance measures may be used, appropriate to light sources projection.

Always MinDistance <= MaxDistance. They may be negative when we measure along the light's direction.

Exceptions raised
EBox3DEmpty
When used with an empty box.
Public function PositionAndDirection: TVector4; virtual; abstract;

Position and direction expressed in homogeneous coordinates. For positional lights, the last component is always 1. For directional lights, the last component is always 0.

Note that this is expressed in the local light node coordinate system.

Properties

Public property FdShadowVolumesMain: TSFBool read FFdShadowVolumesMain;
 
Public property FdShowProxyGeometry: TSFBool read FFdShowProxyGeometry;

showProxyGeometry field is an InstantReality extension, see [http://instant-reality.com/documentation/nodetype/Light/].

Public property FdProjectionNear: TSFFloat read FFdProjectionNear;

projectionNear / projectionFar / up are Kambi extensions, see [https://castle-engine.io/x3d_extensions_shadow_maps.php#section_light_parameters]

Public property FdProjectionFar: TSFFloat read FFdProjectionFar;
 
Public property FdUp: TSFVec3f read FFdUp;
 
Public property FdDefaultShadowMap: TSFNode read FFdDefaultShadowMap;
 
Public property FdShadows: TSFBool read FFdShadows;
 
Public property ProjectionLocationLocal: TVector3 read GetProjectionLocationLocal write SetProjectionLocationLocal;

Light location, direction and up vectors, for projection. Useful when you think of lights as cameras (for shadow maps).

ProjectionDirectionLocal will always be exactly zero for a PointLight (that doesn't have a direction).

The GetView returns vectors in global (scene) space. It guarantees that Direction, Side and Up are normalized and orthogonal to each other.
