Rasterizer (bge.render)¶

Intro¶

Example of using a bge.types.SCA_MouseSensor, and two bge.types.KX_ObjectActuator to implement MouseLook:

Note

This can also be achieved with the bge.types.KX_MouseActuator.

# To use a mouse movement sensor "Mouse" and a
# motion actuator to mouse look:
import bge

# scale sets the speed of motion
scale = 1.0, 0.5

co = bge.logic.getCurrentController()
obj = co.owner
mouse = co.sensors["Mouse"]
lmotion = co.actuators["LMove"]
wmotion = co.actuators["WMove"]

# Transform the mouse coordinates to see how far the mouse has moved.
def mousePos():
   x = (bge.render.getWindowWidth() / 2 - mouse.position[0]) * scale[0]
   y = (bge.render.getWindowHeight() / 2 - mouse.position[1]) * scale[1]
   return (x, y)

pos = mousePos()

# Set the amount of motion: X is applied in world coordinates...
wmotion.useLocalTorque = False
wmotion.torque = ((0.0, 0.0, pos[0]))

# ...Y is applied in local coordinates
lmotion.useLocalTorque = True
lmotion.torque = ((-pos[1], 0.0, 0.0))

# Activate both actuators
co.activate(lmotion)
co.activate(wmotion)

# Centre the mouse
bge.render.setMousePosition(int(bge.render.getWindowWidth() / 2), int(bge.render.getWindowHeight() / 2))

Constants¶

bge.render.KX_TEXFACE_MATERIAL¶: Materials as defined by the texture face settings.

bge.render.KX_BLENDER_MULTITEX_MATERIAL¶: Materials approximating blender materials with multitexturing.

bge.render.KX_BLENDER_GLSL_MATERIAL¶: Materials approximating blender materials with GLSL.

bge.render.VSYNC_OFF¶: Disables vsync

bge.render.VSYNC_ON¶: Enables vsync

bge.render.VSYNC_ADAPTIVE¶: Enables adaptive vsync if supported. Adaptive vsync enables vsync if the framerate is above the monitors refresh rate. Otherwise, vsync is diabled if the framerate is too low.

bge.render.LEFT_EYE¶: Left eye being used during stereoscopic rendering.

bge.render.RIGHT_EYE¶: Right eye being used during stereoscopic rendering.

bge.render.RAS_OFS_RENDER_BUFFER¶: The pixel buffer for offscreen render is a RenderBuffer. Argument to offScreenCreate()

bge.render.RAS_OFS_RENDER_TEXTURE¶: The pixel buffer for offscreen render is a Texture. Argument to offScreenCreate()

Types¶

class bge.render.RASOffScreen¶

An off-screen render buffer object.

Use offScreenCreate() to create it. Currently it can only be used in the bge.texture.ImageRender constructor to render on a FBO rather than the default viewport.

width¶

The width in pixel of the FBO

Type:	integer

height¶

The height in pixel of the FBO

Type:	integer

color¶

The underlying OpenGL bind code of the texture object that holds the rendered image, 0 if the FBO is using RenderBuffer. The choice between RenderBuffer and Texture is determined by the target argument of offScreenCreate().

Type:	integer

Functions¶

bge.render.getWindowWidth()¶

Gets the width of the window (in pixels)

Return type:	integer

bge.render.getWindowHeight()¶

Gets the height of the window (in pixels)

Return type:	integer

bge.render.setWindowSize(width, height)¶

Set the width and height of the window (in pixels). This also works for fullscreen applications.

Note

Only works in the standalone player, not the Blender-embedded player.

Parameters:	width (integer) – width in pixels height (integer) – height in pixels

bge.render.setFullScreen(enable)¶

Set whether or not the window should be fullscreen.

Note

Only works in the standalone player, not the Blender-embedded player.

Parameters:	enable (bool) – `True` to set full screen, `False` to set windowed.

bge.render.getFullScreen()¶

Returns whether or not the window is fullscreen.

Note

Only works in the standalone player, not the Blender-embedded player; there it always returns False.

Return type:	bool

bge.render.getDisplayDimensions()¶

Get the display dimensions, in pixels, of the display (e.g., the monitor). Can return the size of the entire view, so the combination of all monitors; for example, (3840, 1080) for two side-by-side 1080p monitors.

Return type:	tuple (width, height)

bge.render.makeScreenshot(filename)¶

Writes an image file with the current displayed frame.

The image is written to ‘filename’. The path may be absolute (eg. /home/foo/image) or relative when started with // (eg. //image). Note that absolute paths are not portable between platforms. If the filename contains a #, it will be replaced by an incremental index so that screenshots can be taken multiple times without overwriting the previous ones (eg. image-#).

Settings for the image are taken from the render settings (file format and respective settings, gamma and colospace conversion, etc). The image resolution matches the framebuffer, meaning, the window size and aspect ratio. When running from the standalone player, instead of the embedded player, only PNG files are supported. Additional color conversions are also not supported.

Parameters:	filename (string) – path and name of the file to write

bge.render.enableVisibility(visible)¶: Deprecated; doesn’t do anything.

bge.render.showMouse(visible)¶

Enables or disables the operating system mouse cursor.

Parameters:	visible (boolean) –

bge.render.setMousePosition(x, y)¶

Sets the mouse cursor position.

Parameters:	x (integer) – X-coordinate in screen pixel coordinates. y (integer) – Y-coordinate in screen pixel coordinates.

bge.render.setBackgroundColor(rgba)¶: Deprecated and no longer functional. Use bge.types.KX_WorldInfo.backgroundColor() instead.

bge.render.setEyeSeparation(eyesep)¶

Sets the eye separation for stereo mode. Usually Focal Length/30 provides a confortable value.

Parameters:	eyesep (float) – The distance between the left and right eye.

bge.render.getEyeSeparation()¶

Gets the current eye separation for stereo mode.

Return type:	float

bge.render.setFocalLength(focallength)¶

Sets the focal length for stereo mode. It uses the current camera focal length as initial value.

Parameters:	focallength (float) – The focal length.

bge.render.getFocalLength()¶

Gets the current focal length for stereo mode.

Return type:	float

bge.render.getStereoEye()¶

Gets the current stereoscopy eye being rendered. This function is mainly used in a bge.types.KX_Scene.pre_draw callback function to customize the camera projection matrices for each stereoscopic eye.

Return type:	LEFT_EYE, RIGHT_EYE

bge.render.setMaterialMode(mode)¶

Set the material mode to use for OpenGL rendering.

Parameters:	mode (KX_TEXFACE_MATERIAL, KX_BLENDER_MULTITEX_MATERIAL, KX_BLENDER_GLSL_MATERIAL) – material mode

Note

Changes will only affect newly created scenes.

bge.render.getMaterialMode(mode)¶

Get the material mode to use for OpenGL rendering.

Set the anisotropic filtering level for textures.

Parameters:	level (integer (must be one of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16)) – The new anisotropic filtering level to use

Note

Changing this value can cause all textures to be recreated, which can be slow.

bge.render.getAnisotropicFiltering()¶

Get the anisotropic filtering level used for textures.

Return type:	integer (one of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16)

bge.render.setMipmapping(value)¶

Change how to use mipmapping.

Note

Changing this value can cause all textures to be recreated, which can be slow.

bge.render.getMipmapping()¶

Get the current mipmapping setting.

Return type:	RAS_MIPMAP_NONE, RAS_MIPMAP_NEAREST, RAS_MIPMAP_LINEAR

bge.render.drawLine(fromVec, toVec, color)¶

Set the vsync value

Parameters:	value (integer) – One of VSYNC_OFF, VSYNC_ON, VSYNC_ADAPTIVE

bge.render.getVsync()¶

Get the current vsync value

Return type:	One of VSYNC_OFF, VSYNC_ON, VSYNC_ADAPTIVE

bge.render.offScreenCreate(width,height[,samples=0][,target=bge.render.RAS_OFS_RENDER_BUFFER])¶

Create a Off-screen render buffer object.

Parameters:

width (integer) – the width of the buffer in pixels
height (integer) – the height of the buffer in pixels
samples (integer) – the number of multisample for anti-aliasing (MSAA), 0 to disable MSAA
target (integer) – the pixel storage: RAS_OFS_RENDER_BUFFER to render on RenderBuffers (the default), RAS_OFS_RENDER_TEXTURE to render on texture. The later is interesting if you want to access the texture directly (see RASOffScreen.color). Otherwise the default is preferable as it’s more widely supported by GPUs and more efficient. If the GPU does not support MSAA+Texture (e.g. Intel HD GPU), MSAA will be disabled.

Return type:

RASOffScreen
