set the mesh resource name

Definition at line 68 of file nshadowskinshapenode.h.

const nString & nShadowSkinShapeNode::GetMesh ( ) const [inline]

get the mesh resource name

Definition at line 78 of file nshadowskinshapenode.h.

void nShadowSkinShapeNode::SetGroupIndex ( int i ) [inline]

set the mesh group index

Definition at line 88 of file nshadowskinshapenode.h.

int nShadowSkinShapeNode::GetGroupIndex ( ) const [inline]

get the mesh group index

Definition at line 98 of file nshadowskinshapenode.h.

void nShadowSkinShapeNode::SetSkinAnimator ( const char * path ) [inline]

set the skin animator

Set relative path to the skin animator object.

Definition at line 109 of file nshadowskinshapenode.h.

const char * nShadowSkinShapeNode::GetSkinAnimator ( ) const [inline]

get the skin animator

Definition at line 121 of file nshadowskinshapenode.h.

void nShadowSkinShapeNode::SetCharSkeleton ( const nCharSkeleton * charSkeleton ) [inline]

set pointer to an uptodate character skeleton object (called exclusively by nSkinAnimator)

Update the pointer to an uptodate nCharSkeleton object. This pointer is provided by the nSkinAnimator object and is routed to the nCharSkinRenderer so that the mesh can be properly deformed.
