Description

This class provides operations for Directional Lights, e.g. whether or not to cast shadows, the light's color, light strength, etc. You must first retrieve a directional light from the scene in order to use these operations.

Inheritance

RIBase > RIObject > RILight > RIDirectionalLight 

Member Functions

SetCastShadow ( self, bEnable )

Turn on or off the directional light's cast shadow.

1 light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Dir. Light")
2 
3 if light_object:
4     light_object.SetCastShadow(True)
5     light_object.SetCastShadow(False)

Parameters

bEnable [IN] Enable or disable cast shadows for the light - bool

Returns

Success - RLPy.RStatus.Success
Failure - RLPy.RStatus.Failure

IsCastShadow ( self )

Check whether or not the light is casting shadows.

1 light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Dir. Light")
2 
3 if light_object:
4     light_object.SetCastShadow(True)
5     print(light_object.IsCastShadow())
6 
7     light_object.SetCastShadow(False)
8     print(light_object.IsCastShadow())

Returns

True if the light is casting shadows, else False - bool

SetDarkenShadowStrength ( self, kTime, fStrength )

Set the directional light's shadow strength at a given point in time (0 to 100).

1 light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Dir. Light")
2 
3 if light_object:
4   result = light_object.SetDarkenShadowStrength(RLPy.RGlobal.GetTime(), 50)
5   print(result)

Parameters

fStrength [IN] The Light shadow strength value - float

Returns

Success - RLPy.RStatus.Success
Failure - RLPy.RStatus.Failure

GetDarkenShadowStrength ( self )

Get the directional light's shadow strength at a given point in time (0 to 100).

Returns

The light's shadow strength value - float
1 light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Dir. Light")
2 
3 if light_object:
4   result = light_object.SetDarkenShadowStrength(RLPy.RGlobal.GetTime(), 50)
5   print(light_object.GetDarkenShadowStrength())
