A SceneManager organises the culling and rendering of the scene, in conjunction with the RenderQueue. This class is designed to be extended through subclassing in order to provide more specialised scene organisation structures for particular needs. The default SceneManager culls based on a hierarchy of node bounding boxes, other implementations can use an octree (@see OctreeSceneManager), a BSP tree (@see BspSceneManager), and many other options. New SceneManager implementations can be added at runtime by plugins, see SceneManagerEnumerator for the interfaces for adding new SceneManager types. @par There is a distinction between 'objects' (which subclass MovableObject, and are movable, discrete objects in the world), and 'world geometry', which is large, generally static geometry. World geometry tends to influence the SceneManager organisational structure (e.g. lots of indoor static geometry might result in a spatial tree structure) and as such world geometry is generally tied to a given SceneManager implementation, whilst MovableObject instances can be used with any SceneManager. Subclasses are free to define world geometry however they please. @par Multiple SceneManager instances can exist at one time, each one with a distinct scene. Which SceneManager is used to render a scene is dependent on the Camera, which will always call back the SceneManager which created it to render the scene. */ class _OgreExport SceneManager { public: /// Query type mask which will be used for world geometry @see SceneQuery static uint32 WORLD_GEOMETRY_TYPE_MASK; /// Query type mask which will be used for entities @see SceneQuery static uint32 ENTITY_TYPE_MASK; /// Query type mask which will be used for effects like billboardsets / particle systems @see SceneQuery static uint32 FX_TYPE_MASK; /// Query type mask which will be used for StaticGeometry @see SceneQuery static uint32 STATICGEOMETRY_TYPE_MASK; /// Query type mask which will be used for lights @see SceneQuery static uint32 LIGHT_TYPE_MASK; /// User type mask limit static uint32 USER_TYPE_MASK_LIMIT; /** Comparator for material map, for sorting materials into render order (e.g. transparent last). */ struct materialLess { _OgreExport bool operator()(const Material* x, const Material* y) const; }; /// Comparator for sorting lights relative to a point struct lightLess { _OgreExport bool operator()(const Light* a, const Light* b) const; }; /// Describes the stage of rendering when performing complex illumination enum IlluminationRenderStage { /// No special illumination stage IRS_NONE, /// Render to texture stage, used for texture based shadows IRS_RENDER_TO_TEXTURE, /// Render from shadow texture to receivers stage IRS_RENDER_RECEIVER_PASS }; /** Enumeration of the possible modes allowed for processing the special case render queue list. @see SceneManager::setSpecialCaseRenderQueueMode */ enum SpecialCaseRenderQueueMode { /// Render only the queues in the special case list SCRQM_INCLUDE, /// Render all except the queues in the special case list SCRQM_EXCLUDE }; typedef struct SkyDomeGenParameters { Real skyDomeCurvature; Real skyDomeTiling; Real skyDomeDistance; int skyDomeXSegments; int skyDomeYSegments; int skyDomeYSegments_keep; }; struct SkyPlaneGenParameters { Real skyPlaneScale; Real skyPlaneTiling; Real skyPlaneBow; int skyPlaneXSegments; int skyPlaneYSegments; }; struct SkyBoxGenParameters { Real skyBoxDistance; }; protected: /// Instance name String mName; /// Queue of objects for rendering RenderQueue* mRenderQueue; /// Current ambient light, cached for RenderSystem ColourValue mAmbientLight; /// The rendering system to send the scene to RenderSystem *mDestRenderSystem; typedef std::map CameraList; /** Central list of cameras - for easy memory management and lookup. */ CameraList mCameras; typedef std::map StaticGeometryList; StaticGeometryList mStaticGeometryList; typedef std::map SceneNodeList; /** Central list of SceneNodes - for easy memory management. @note Note that this list is used only for memory management; the structure of the scene is held using the hierarchy of SceneNodes starting with the root node.

  • Stencil-based approaches can be used to draw very long, extreme shadows without loss of precision and the 'additive' version can correctly show the shadowing of complex effects like bump mapping because they physically exclude the light from those areas. However, the edges are very sharp and stencils cannot handle transparency, and they involve a fair amount of CPU work in order to calculate the shadow volumes, especially when animated objects are involved.
  • Texture-based approaches are good for handling transparency (they can, for example, correctly shadow a mesh which uses alpha to represent holes), and they require little CPU overhead, and can happily shadow geometry which is deformed by a vertex program, unlike stencil shadows. However, they have a fixed precision which can introduce 'jaggies' at long range and have fillrate issues of their own.
@par We support 2 kinds of stencil shadows, and 2 kinds of texture-based shadows, and one simple decal approach. The 2 stencil approaches differ in the amount of multipass work that is required - the modulative approach simply 'darkens' areas in shadow after the main render, which is the least expensive, whilst the additive approach has to perform a render per light and adds the cumulative effect, whcih is more expensive but more accurate. The texture based shadows both work in roughly the same way, the only difference is that the shadowmap approach is slightly more accurate, but requires a more recent graphics card. @par Note that because mixing many shadow techniques can cause problems, only one technique is supported at once.

If this clipping happens, you get a kind of 'negative' shadow effect. The best way to achieve coherency is to move the far plane of the camera out to infinity, thus preventing the far plane from clipping the shadow volumes. When combined with vertex program extrusion of the volume to infinity, which Ogre does when available, this results in very robust shadow volumes. For this reason, when you enable stencil shadows, Ogre automatically changes your camera settings to project to infinity if the card supports it. You can disable this behaviour if you like by calling this method; although you can never enable infinite projection if the card does not support it. @par If you disable infinite projection, or it is not available, you need to be far more careful with your light attenuation / directional light extrusion distances to avoid clipping artefacts at the far plane. @note Recent cards will generally support infinite far plane projection. However, we have found some cases where they do not, especially on Direct3D. There is no standard capability we can check to validate this, so we use some heuristics based on experience:
  • OpenGL always seems to support it no matter what the card
  • Direct3D on non-vertex program capable systems (including vertex program capable cards on Direct3D7) does not support it
  • Direct3D on GeForce3 and GeForce4 Ti does not seem to support infinite projection
Therefore in the RenderSystem implementation, we may veto the use of an infinite far plane based on these heuristics. */ virtual void setShadowUseInfiniteFarPlane(bool enable) { mShadowUseInfiniteFarPlane = enable; } /** Is there a stencil shadow based shadowing technique in use? */ virtual bool isShadowTechniqueStencilBased(void) const { return (mShadowTechnique & SHADOWDETAILTYPE_STENCIL) != 0; } /** Is there a texture shadow based shadowing technique in use? */ virtual bool isShadowTechniqueTextureBased(void) const { return (mShadowTechnique & SHADOWDETAILTYPE_TEXTURE) != 0; } /** Is there a modulative shadowing technique in use? */ virtual bool isShadowTechniqueModulative(void) const { return (mShadowTechnique & SHADOWDETAILTYPE_MODULATIVE) != 0; } /** Is there an additive shadowing technique in use? */ virtual bool isShadowTechniqueAdditive(void) const { return (mShadowTechnique & SHADOWDETAILTYPE_ADDITIVE) != 0; } /** Is there any shadowing technique in use? */ virtual bool isShadowTechniqueInUse(void) const { return mShadowTechnique != SHADOWTYPE_NONE; } /** Add a shadow listener which will get called back on shadow events. */ virtual void addShadowListener(ShadowListener* s); /** Remove a shadow listener */ virtual void removeShadowListener(ShadowListener* s); /** Creates a StaticGeometry instance suitable for use with this SceneManager. @remarks StaticGeometry is a way of batching up geometry into a more efficient form at the expense of being able to move it.
