Constructor Detail

ModelMD2

public ModelMD2(boolean smooth)

Creates a new MD2 model object. The loader uses precalculated smooth mesh normals that should be fine, but you can optionally decide to let the engine calculate smooth normals which sometimes returns normals that are smoother. A word of advice: If you decide to enable smooth shading the creation of the mesh will take more time than without smooth shading, because smooth normals need to be calculated beforehand, which is pretty time consuming depending on the amount of triangles in the mesh.

Parameters:

smooth - shade mesh smoothly? --> true=yes, false=no

ModelMD2

public ModelMD2(boolean smooth,
                BoundingVolume type)

Creates a new MD2 mesh object, optionally smooth shaded. You can specifiy the type of the used bounding volume, too.

Parameters:

smooth - shade mesh smoothly? --> true=yes, false=no

type - value from the BoundingVolume enumeration

Method Detail

getFilePath

public java.lang.String getFilePath()

Description copied from interface: ImportableModelIface

Specified by:

getFilePath in interface ImportableModelIface

Returns:

file path of the model file

load

public void load(java.lang.String modelFile,
                 float scale)

Description copied from interface: ImportableModelIface

This method loads a model from the specified file.

Specified by:

load in interface ImportableModelIface

Parameters:

modelFile - path to the model file

scale - scale factor
