Interface VirtualLight

All Known Implementing Classes:
PointLight, SpotLight
public interface VirtualLight
Common read-only light properties. RenderLighting accepts only the immutable PointLight and SpotLight records; arbitrary implementations are rejected before a request retains them. RGB is 24-bit sRGB, position/range use blocks, and intensity is artistic. Limits are per render pass and advertised by RendererClient.lightingCapabilities().

  • Method Summary

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    double
    intensity()
    Returns this emitter's artistic intensity, independent of inherited-world light factors.
    double
    range()
    Returns the maximum distance reached by this emitter.
    int
    rgb()
    Returns this light's 24-bit sRGB colour without alpha.
    boolean
    shadows()
    Reports whether this emitter requests hard shadows.
    LightSpace
    space()
    Returns the coordinate system shared by this light's position and direction.
    double
    x()
    Returns the world X position or camera-right offset.
    double
    y()
    Returns the world Y position or camera-up offset.
    double
    z()
    Returns the world Z position or camera-forward offset.

  • Method Details

    • space

      LightSpace space()

      Returns:
      WORLD or CAMERA

    • rgb

      int rgb()
      Returns this light's 24-bit sRGB colour without alpha.
      Returns:
      RGB in 0x000000..0xffffff

    • x

      double x()
      Returns the world X position or camera-right offset.
      Returns:
      finite position in blocks

    • y

      double y()
      Returns the world Y position or camera-up offset.
      Returns:
      finite position in blocks

    • z

      double z()
      Returns the world Z position or camera-forward offset.
      Returns:

    • intensity

      double intensity()
      Returns this emitter's artistic intensity, independent of inherited-world light factors.
      Returns:
      finite intensity in 0..64

    • range

      double range()
      Returns the maximum distance reached by this emitter.
      Returns:
      finite range in blocks, greater than 0 and at most 64

    • shadows

      boolean shadows()
      Reports whether this emitter requests hard shadows.
      Returns:
      true when shadow geometry should occlude this emitter
