love.graphics.newGeometry

Available since LÖVE 0.9.0

This function is not supported in earlier versions.

Creates a new Geometry.

Function

geometry = love.graphics.newGeometry( vertices, draw_mode, vertex_map )

table vertices

The table filled with vertex information tables for each vertex as follows:

number [1]: The position of the vertex on the x-axis.
number [2]: The position of the vertex on the y-axis.
number [3]: The u texture coordinate. Texture coordinates are normally in the range of [0, 1], but can be greater or less (see WrapMode.)
number [4]: The v texture coordinate. Texture coordinates are normally in the range of [0, 1], but can be greater or less (see WrapMode.)
number [5] (255): The red color component.
number [6] (255): The green color component.
number [7] (255): The blue color component.
number [8] (255): The alpha color component.

GeometryDrawMode draw_mode ("fan"): How the vertices are used when drawing. The default mode "fan" is sufficient for simple convex polygons.
table vertex_map ({1, 2, 3, ...}): A table describing the order of the vertices when they are drawn. The vertex map allows you to re-order or reuse vertices when drawing without changing the actual vertex parameters.

geometry = love.graphics.newGeometry( vertex1, vertex2, vertex3, ..., draw_mode, vertex_map )

table vertex1: The vertex information table for the first vertex.
table vertex2: The vertex information table for the second vertex.
table vertex3: The vertex information table for the third vertex.
GeometryDrawMode draw_mode ("fan"): How the vertices are used when drawing. The default mode "fan" is sufficient for simple convex polygons.
table vertex_map ({1, 2, 3, ...}): A table describing the order of the vertices when they are drawn. The vertex map allows you to re-order or reuse vertices when drawing without changing the actual vertex parameters.
