Camera.RenderToCubemap

Parameters

Returns

bool False if rendering fails, else true.

Description

Рендер в статическую кубическую текстуру (cubemap) с камеры.

This function is mostly useful in the editor for "baking" static cubemaps of your scene. See wizard example below. If you want a realtime-updated cubemap, use RenderToCubemap variant that uses a RenderTexture with a cubemap dimension, see below.

Camera's position, clear flags and clipping plane distances will be used to render into cubemap faces. faceMask is a bitfield indicating which cubemap faces should be rendered into. Each bit that is set corresponds to a face. Bit numbers are integer values of CubemapFace enum. By default all six cubemap faces will be rendered (default value 63 has six lowest bits on).

This function will return false if rendering to cubemap fails. Some graphics hardware does not support the functionality.

Note also that ReflectionProbes are a more advanced way of performing realtime reflections. Cubemaps can be created in the editor by selecting the Create->Legacy option.

Parameters

Returns

bool False if rendering fails, else true.

Description

Рендер в cubemap с этой камеры.

This is used for real-time reflections into cubemap render textures. It can be quite expensive though, especially if all six cubemap faces are rendered each frame.

The Camera's position, clear flags and clipping plane distances will be used to render into cubemap faces. faceMask is a bitfield indicating which cubemap faces should be rendered into. Each bit that is set corresponds to a face. Bit numbers are integer values of CubemapFace enum. By default all six cubemap faces will be rendered (default value 63 has six lowest bits on).

This function will return false if rendering to cubemap fails. Some graphics hardware does not support the functionality.

Note that the RenderTexture must have RenderTexture.dimension set to TextureDimension.Cube. This is illustrated in the example following.
