Member Function Documentation

clear()

void vex::MeshData::clear ( )

inline

Definition at line 57 of file Mesh.hpp.

loadFromFile()

void vex::MeshData::loadFromFile	(	const std::string &	path,
		VirtualFileSystem *	vfs )

Loads mesh data from a file using the Virtual File System.

Uses Assimp with a custom VPKAssimpIOSystem to read files directly from VFS memory buffers (supporting compressed VPKs). Post-processes the mesh to Triangulate, Generate Normals, and Flip UVs.

Parameters

const	std::string& path - Path to the mesh file within the VFS.
VirtualFileSystem*	vfs - Pointer to the active VirtualFileSystem instance.

Definition at line 271 of file Mesh.cpp.

loadFromRawFile()

void vex::MeshData::loadFromRawFile

(

const std::string &

relativePath

)

Loads a mesh directly from the physical disk, bypassing the VFS.

Useful for Editor assets or raw files not yet packed into VPKs. Reads relative to the executable directory.

Parameters

const

std::string& relativePath - File path relative to the executable.

Definition at line 240 of file Mesh.cpp.

processScene()

void vex::MeshData::processScene ( const aiScene * scene, const std::string & textureBaseDir )

private

Internal helper to convert an Assimp aiScene into VEX Submesh structures.

Extracts vertices, normals, and texture coordinates. If texture coordinates are missing, initializes UVs to (-100000.0f) to signal the shader.

Parameters

const	aiScene* scene - The loaded Assimp scene pointer.
const	std::string& textureBaseDir - Base directory string for resolving texture paths.
