Lights

One white global light illuminates the scene by default. This can be changed through a light manager object and a certain number of lights (limited by OpenGL).

The first step is to add the object called LightManager, preferably at the top of the scene file.

<LightManager />

After that, we can add 3 different kinds of lights :

• a positional light (parameters : color, position) ;

<PositionalLight position="0 -5 10" />

• a directional light (parameters : color, direction) ;

<DirectionalLight direction="0 5 0" />

• a spotlight (parameters : color, position, direction, cut off, exponent, attenuation)

<SpotLight position="-3 2 5" direction="0 0 -1" />
