void Mezzanine::Graphics::SceneManager::CreateSkyBox	(	const String &	Material,
		const String &	Group,
		Real	Distance,
		bool	DrawFirst = `true`,
		Quaternion	Orientation = `Quaternion()`
	)

Creates a skybox for use in making a sky.

Like skyplanes, only one can exist per scene. Unlike skyplanes, skyboxes will be applied individually to each camera in the scene. The skybox will move with the camera, so as a result the camera will never be able to "touch" the sky. Skyboxes are more performance intensive then skyplanes.

Parameters

Material	The name of the material to be applied to the skybox. Note: This is not referring to the filename, but the specific material script within the file.
Group	The resource group where the material can be found.
Distance	The distance from the camera where the skybox is found. This is in world units.
DrawFirst	Whether or not the skybox should be the first thing rendered in the scene. Usually you will want this to be true as it'll ensure all other objects are rendered on top of it.
Orientation	Optional quaternion to rotate the orientation of the skybox.

Definition at line 371 of file scenemanager.cpp.

void Mezzanine::Graphics::SceneManager::CreateSkyDome	(	const String &	Material,
		const String &	Group,
		Real	Distance,
		Real	Curvature = `10.0`,
		Real	Tiling = `8.0`,
		bool	DrawFirst = `true`,
		Quaternion	Orientation = `Quaternion()`,
		int	XSegments = `16`,
		int	YSegments = `16`
	)

Creates a skydome for use in making a sky.

Like the other two types of sky's, their can be only one skydome per scene. Skydomes much like skyboxes, except they have 5 sides(the bottom side is missing), and they bow each of the sides to make the dome. In all other respects they are the same.

Parameters

Material	The name of the material to be applied to the skydome. Note: This is not referring to the filename, but the specific material script within the file.
Group	The resource group where the material can be found.
Distance	The distance from the camera where the skydome is found. This is in world units.
Curvature	Curvature of the dome. Usually you want this value to be between 2 and 65.
Tiling	The number of times to tile the texture or textures listed in the material script across the skydome.
DrawFirst	Whether or not the skybox should be the first thing rendered in the scene. Usually you will want this to be true as it'll ensure all other objects are rendered on top of it.
Orientation	Optional quaternion to rotate the orientation of the skydome.
XSegments	The number of segments, or boxes, the skydome consists of on the dome's X axis.
YSegments	The number of segments, or boxes, the skydome consists of on the dome's Y axis.

Definition at line 383 of file scenemanager.cpp.

void Mezzanine::Graphics::SceneManager::CreateSkyPlane	(	const Plane &	SkyPlane_,
		const String &	Material,
		const String &	Group,
		Real	Scale = `1000.0`,
		Real	Tiling = `10.0`,
		bool	DrawFirst = `true`,
		Real	Bow = `0`,
		int	XSegments = `1`,
		int	YSegments = `1`
	)

Creates a skyplane for use in making a sky.

Only one skyplane can exist in a scene. Making a new one will remove the old one. Skyplanes are flat planes that face in one direction. They are ideal for levels with surrounding mountains or anything where the horizon is not visable.

Parameters

SkyPlane	The plane that will become the sky.
Material	The name of the material to be applied to the skyplane. Note: This is not referring to the filename, but the specific material script within the file.
Group	The resource group where the material can be found.
Scale	The scaling to be applied to the skyplane. This may need to be tweaked based on how high you set the plane off the ground.
Tiling	The number of times to tile the texture or textures listed in the material script across the skyplane.
DrawFirst	Whether or not the skyplane should be the first thing rendered in the scene. Usually you will want this to be true as it'll ensure all other objects are rendered on top of it.
Bow	This will add curvature to the skyplane if set above zero. Note: Use small numbers. A bow of 1.5 should be noticable.
XSegments	The number of segments, or boxes, the skyplane consists of on the planes X axis. This is usful when giving the skyplane a bow. By default the skyplane is just one massive box.
YSegments	The number of segments, or boxes, the skyplane consists of on the planes Y axis. This is usful when giving the skyplane a bow. By default the skyplane is just one massive box.
