render.SetLightmapTexture#561916

<function name="SetLightmapTexture" parent="render" type="libraryfunc"> <description> Sets the texture to be used as the lightmap in upcoming rendering operations. This is required when rendering meshes using a material with a lightmapped shader such as LightmappedGeneric. ⤶ <rendercontext hook="false" type="3D"></rendercontext>⤶ <rendercontext hook="false" type="2D"></rendercontext>⤶ </description> <realm>Client</realm> <args> <arg name="tex" type="ITexture">The texture to be used as the lightmap.</arg> </args> </function> <example> <description>Creates a mesh with LightmappedGeneric material on it</description> <code> -- LightmappedGeneric material that we'll use for our mesh local meshMat = Material( "concrete/concretefloor001a" ) -- Mesh vertices (notice that it's not MeshVertex structure format, just something similar) -- Notice that we have 2 UV coordinates channels, one for texture, one for lightmap local meshVertices = { { pos = Vector( 0, 0, 0 ), u0 = 0, v0 = 0, u1 = 0, v1 = 0, n = Vector( 1, 0, 0 ) }, { pos = Vector( 0, 100, 0 ), u0 = 1, v0 = 0, u1 = 3, v1 = 0, n = Vector( 1, 0, 0 ) }, { pos = Vector( 0, 100, -100 ), u0 = 1, v0 = 1, u1 = 3, v1 = 3, n = Vector( 1, 0, 0 ) }, { pos = Vector( 0, 0, -100 ), u0 = 0, v0 = 1, u1 = 0, v1 = 3, n = Vector( 1, 0, 0 ) }, } -- Run this command while ingame to create the mesh at map origin concommand.Add( "meshtest", function() -- Creating a render target to be used as lightmap texture meshLightmap = GetRenderTarget( "test_mesh_lightmap", 128, 128, false ) -- Filling the lightmap texture with some stuff for visualization render.PushRenderTarget( meshLightmap ) cam.Start2D() -- Resetting lightmap to be monotone gray render.Clear( 128, 128, 128, 255 ) -- Drawing a dark rectangle render.SetColorMaterial() surface.SetDrawColor( 80, 80, 80, 255 ) surface.DrawRect( 32, 32, 64, 64 ) -- And some color text, why not!
