com.jme3.animation.EffectTrack

All Implemented Interfaces:

ClonableTrack, Track, Savable, JmeCloneable, java.lang.Cloneable

Deprecated.

@Deprecated
public class EffectTrack
extends java.lang.Object
implements ClonableTrack

EffectTrack is a track to add to an existing animation, to emit particles during animations for example: exhaust, dust raised by footsteps, shock waves, lightning, etc... usage is

 AnimControl control model.getControl(AnimControl.class);
 EffectTrack track = new EffectTrack(existingEmitter, control.getAnim("TheAnim").getLength());
 control.getAnim("TheAnim").addTrack(track);
 

if the emitter emits 0 particles per second, emitAllPArticles will be called on it at time 0 + startOffset. if it has more it will start emitting normally at time 0 + startOffset.

Constructor Detail

EffectTrack

protected EffectTrack()

Deprecated.

constructor only for serialization

EffectTrack

public EffectTrack(ParticleEmitter emitter,
                   float length)

Deprecated.

Creates and EffectTrack

Parameters:

emitter - the emitter of the track

length - the length of the track (usually the length of the animation you want to add the track to)

EffectTrack

public EffectTrack(ParticleEmitter emitter,
                   float length,
                   float startOffset)

Deprecated.

Creates and EffectTrack

Parameters:

emitter - the emitter of the track

length - the length of the track (usually the length of the animation you want to add the track to)

startOffset - the time in second when the emitter will be triggered after the animation starts (default is 0)

Method Detail

setTime

public void setTime(float time,
                    float weight,
                    AnimControl control,
                    AnimChannel channel,
                    TempVars vars)

Deprecated.

Internal use only

Specified by:

setTime in interface Track

Parameters:

time - The time in the animation

weight - The weight from 0 to 1 on how much to apply the track

control - The control which the track should affect

channel - The channel which the track should affect

vars - temporary storage

Track.setTime(float, float, com.jme3.animation.AnimControl, com.jme3.animation.AnimChannel, com.jme3.util.TempVars)

getLength

public float getLength()

Deprecated.

Return the length of the track

Specified by:

getLength in interface Track

Returns:

length of the track

getKeyFrameTimes

public float[] getKeyFrameTimes()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: Track

Get the times in seconds for all keyframes. All keyframe times should be between 0.0 and length. Modifying the provided array is not allowed, as it may corrupt internal state.

Specified by:

getKeyFrameTimes in interface Track

Returns:

the keyframe times

clone

public EffectTrack clone()

Deprecated.

Clone this track

Specified by:

clone in interface Track

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a new instance

cloneForSpatial

public Track cloneForSpatial(Spatial spatial)

Deprecated.

This method clone the Track and search for the cloned counterpart of the original emitter in the given cloned spatial. The spatial is assumed to be the Spatial holding the AnimControl controlling the animation using this Track.

Specified by:

cloneForSpatial in interface ClonableTrack

Parameters:

spatial - the Spatial holding the AnimControl

Returns:

the cloned Track with proper reference

jmeClone

public java.lang.Object jmeClone()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: JmeCloneable

Performs a regular shallow clone of the object. Some fields may also be cloned but generally only if they will never be shared with other objects. (For example, local Vector3fs and so on.)

This method is separate from the regular clone() method so that objects might still maintain their own regular java clone() semantics (perhaps even using Cloner for those methods). However, because Java's clone() has specific features in the sense of Object's clone() implementation, it's usually best to have some path for subclasses to bypass the public clone() method that might be cloning fields and instead get at the superclass protected clone() methods. For example, through super.jmeClone() or another protected clone method that some base class eventually calls super.clone() in.

Specified by:

jmeClone in interface JmeCloneable

Returns:

a new instance

cloneFields

public void cloneFields(Cloner cloner,
                        java.lang.Object original)

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: JmeCloneable

Implemented to perform deep cloning for this object, resolving local cloned references using the specified cloner. The object can call cloner.clone(fieldValue) to deep clone any of its fields.

Note: during normal clone operations the original object will not be needed as the clone has already had all of the fields shallow copied.

Specified by:

cloneFields in interface JmeCloneable

Parameters:

cloner - The cloner that is performing the cloning operation. The cloneFields method can call back into the cloner to make clones of its subordinate fields.

original - The original object from which this object was cloned. This is provided for the very rare case that this object needs to refer to its original for some reason. In general, all of the relevant values should have been transferred during the shallow clone and this object need merely clone what it wants.

cleanUp

public void cleanUp()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: ClonableTrack

Method responsible for cleaning UserData on referenced Spatials when the Track is deleted

Specified by:

cleanUp in interface ClonableTrack

Deprecated.

Returns:

the emitter used by this track

setEmitter

public void setEmitter(ParticleEmitter emitter)

Deprecated.

Sets the Emitter to use in this track

Parameters:

getStartOffset

public float getStartOffset()

Deprecated.

Returns:

the start offset of the track

setStartOffset

public void setStartOffset(float startOffset)

Deprecated.

set the start offset of the track

Parameters:

startOffset - the start offset (in seconds)

write

public void write(JmeExporter ex)
           throws java.io.IOException

Deprecated.

Internal use only serialization

Specified by:
