Detailed Description

Class ShadeContext

Description:

This interface provides access to some shade context information for the working model. It is used when performing a projection mapped Render To Texture, to support shading operations on the reference models which additionally require information about the working model.

This interface is provided by the renderer to Texture Bake elements, when performing a Render To Texture (RTT) in projection mode. In this mode, pixels are shaded as follows. First, the renderer locates a point on the working model. A ray is cast to locate a corresponding point on one of the reference models. Material shading proceeds on the reference model instead of the working model. The material is responsible for invoking each texture bake element and render element, as part of its shading operation. However, the texture bake elements might need information about the working model, and the shade context only contains information for the reference model. The renderer solves this problem by attaching an IProjection_WorkingModelInfo interface to the ShadeContext that it passes to the material.

When a bake projection is done, all the information in the shade context is overriden to represent the intersection point on the projected object. If a bake render element still needs access to shade context information from the original object (the working model), then this interface may be used.

This interface provides a render instance of the working model and information about the working model point being shaded. It should be queried from the shade context through ShadeContext::GetInterface(). A NULL pointer will be returned if no projection was done.

Examples:

For an example of usage, please refer to the Normal Map and Height Map texture bake elements, in the SDK samples maxsdk\samples\render\renderelements\stdBakeElem.cpp.
