Mesh Function

omar

Hello my name is omar, I'm new here, and new gideros user. Nice to be here and with the true open source engine...

I want to ask a basic thing about working with Mesh, actually i'm new to the concept. I learn it by trial error using Mesh class. My question is what the difference between

Mesh:setColorArray

and

Mesh:setColors

, and

Mesh:setTextureCoordinateArray

and

Mesh:setTextureCoordinates

... so there are function like Mesh:___s and the counterpart Mesh:___Array besides for example

Mesh:setColor

(without s) ... thank you.

Hi @omar, welcome!
Those functions differ by their arguments: xArray expect a table of all color/textureCoords/indices/vertices for the mesh, while other variants allow to set vertex value by index.

at the end you can achieve the same with the two things.

o.. it is mean ...
___Array -> "whole object" (without indices)
___s -> by indices and
___ -> by index
???
..if that three kind of functions are only differ by their arguments, i think it's clear..
thank you hgy29, i will try it again...
(and sorry for the bad english)
