gSPSetGeometryMode
Format
#include "gbi.h"
gSPSetGeometryMode(Gfx *gdl,
unsigned int mode)
gsSPSetGeometryMode(unsigned int mode)
Arguments
- gdl is the pointer to the graphics display list
- mode specifies the geometry pipeline modes. The following modes are bit OR'ed together and set:
- G_SHADE RSP calculates the color at the vertices of a triangle. Do not enable this when using the primitive color to specify the color for a triangle.
- G_LIGHTING enables lighting calculations.
- G_SHADING_SMOOTH enables Gouraud shading. If this is not enabled, the color for a triangle is flat shaded. The color of the triangle is determined by the color of one of its vertices. See gSP1Triangle. If you set this mode, you must also set G_SHADE.
- G_ZBUFFER enables Z-Buffer calculations. You may also need to set other Z-Buffer parameters for the framebuffer.
- G_TEXTURE_GEN enables the automatic generation of the texture coordinates s and t. A spherical mapping is used, based on the normal.
- G_TEXTURE_GEN_LINEAR enables the automatic generation of the texture coordinates s and t.
- G_CULL_FRONT enables culling the front-facing polygons.
- G_CULL_BACK enables culling the back-facing polygons.
- G_CULL_BOTH enables culling both the front and back-facing polygons.
- G_FOG enables generation of fog parameters for the vertex alpha coordinate.
What These Macros Do
The gSPSetGeometryMode macro turns on geometry pipeline modes, and gSPClearGeometryMode clears the modes.
Note
There are other elements of the RSP rendering state that have their
own macros. In those cases, either the state change is more complex
than a single bit, or there is an optimization for the RSP geometry
engine that requires a different macro.
