simCreateShape

Creates a mesh shape

C++ synopsis

int simCreateShape(int options, double shadingAngle, const double* vertices, int verticesSize, const int* indices, int indicesSize, const double* normals, const double* textureCoordinates, const unsigned char* texture, const int* textureResolution)

Arguments

• options: Bit-coded:
  • if bit0 is set (1), backfaces are culled
  • If bit1 is set (2), edges are visible
  • If bit2 is set (4), adjacent texture pixels are not interpolated
  • If bit3 is set (8), texture is applied as a decal
  • If bit4 is set (16), texture is RGBA, otherwise it is RGB
  • If bit5 is set (32), texture is horizontally flipped
  • If bit6 is set (64), texture is vertically flipped
• shadingAngle: shading angle
• vertices: array of vertices
• verticesSize: size of the vertice array
• indices: array of indices
• indicesSize: size of the indice array
• normals: optional array of normal vectors. Has to be 3*indicesSize in length
• textureCoordinates: optional array of texture coordinates. Has to be 2*indicesSize in length
• texture: optional texture, specified as RGB or RGBA
• textureResolution: resolution of the specified texture

Return

• -1 if operation was not successful, otherwise the handle of the newly created shape
