[deprecated] class Qt3DExtras::QDiffuseMapMaterial

This class is deprecated. We strongly advise against using it in new code.

This class is deprecated; use Qt3DExtras::QDiffuseSpecularMaterial instead.

The specular lighting effect is based on the combination of 3 lighting components ambient, diffuse and specular. The relative strengths of these components are controlled by means of their reflectivity coefficients which are modelled as RGB triplets:

• Ambient is the color that is emitted by an object without any other light source.
• Diffuse is the color that is emitted for rought surface reflections with the lights.
• Specular is the color emitted for shiny surface reflections with the lights.
• The shininess of a surface is controlled by a float property.

This material uses an effect with a single render pass approach and performs per fragment lighting. Techniques are provided for OpenGL 2, OpenGL 3 or above as well as OpenGL ES 2.

[deprecated] class Qt3DExtras::QForwardRenderer

This class is deprecated. We strongly advise against using it in new code.

Forward rendering is what OpenGL traditionally uses. It renders directly to the backbuffer one object at a time shading each one as it goes.

QForwardRenderer is a single leaf FrameGraph tree which contains a Qt3DRender::QViewport, a Qt3DRender::QCameraSelector, and a Qt3DRender::QClearBuffers. The QForwardRenderer has a default requirement filter key whose name is "renderingStyle" and value "forward". If you need to filter out your techniques, you should do so based on that filter key.

By default the viewport occupies the whole screen and the clear color is white. Frustum culling is also enabled.

[deprecated] class Qt3DExtras::QGoochMaterial

This class is deprecated. We strongly advise against using it in new code.

The Gooch lighting model uses both color and brightness to help show the curvature of 3D surfaces. This is often better than models such as Phong that rely purely upon changes in brightness. In situations such as in CAD and CAM applications where photorealism is not a goal, the Gooch shading model in conjunction with some kind of silhouette edge inking is a popular solution.

The Gooch lighting model is explained fully in the original Gooch paper. The Gooch model mixes a diffuse object color with a user-provided cool color and warm color to produce the end points of a color ramp that is used to shade the object based upon the cosine of the angle between the vector from the fragment to the light source and the fragment's normal vector. Optionally, a specular highlight can be added on top. The relative contributions to the cool and warm colors by the diffuse color are controlled by the alpha and beta properties respecitvely.

This material uses an effect with a single render pass approach and performs per fragment lighting. Techniques are provided for OpenGL 2, OpenGL 3 or above as well as OpenGL ES 2.
